   IKR?

   I never fell for that, when I was her age, thanks to my mother. I had very high marks in school and was always first. Later on in high school, the same. I ended up with scholarships and had no university debt. That should be eveyone’s goal: scholarships and no student debt.

   What? Just because Kat is talking to a new character does not mean what you want it to mean…

   That is too bad about your daughter not putting it on her obligations list. In my mind it is a kind of obligation.

   In our case, as I said to “kiki281”, we go at least twice a year The more people have died, the more of them are there to visit, since we have a family plot. My daughter goes whenever she is here visiting. Her husband visits his father’s grave at least twice a year and they take their children too.

    When we go, maybe twice a year, we take a bucket with us and clean the memorial stone too. I found that going in the spring after the bulbs have finished is necessary to clean up the dry leaves, and then later on in the fall to do the same and prepare the tiny garden for winter… We make a day of it. We visit a local garden place in the spring and buy some plants for our garden, and in the fall we drive to our favorite orchard farm and buy apples and pears for winter.
