My husband still needs to finish packing his stuff. As usual, I've been ready for a while. We'll stay at his best friend's house again for two nights, then off towards the airport.

Today I see my dad, through glass with us talking through cell phones. Then we go to a restaurant to meet my sister and nephew. My brother will meet us in the restaurant parking lot right before. He does not wish to join lunch because he says he might have been exposed to covid. What sad ways to have to say goodbye! The reason I am not going to my sister's or brother's houses is because Sis lives in a near hoarding house (her husband and son's doing). My brother keeps our Dad's house very messy, too. I'm the only one who keeps a clean house, but living in a hotel lately doesn't make for a pleasant meeting location.

My family and I plan to communicate in the future mostly through WhatsApp. At least that exists. Strangely, we may end up communicating with each other more often because of it.
