Going to work

I went this morning to the branch office. It snowed and the school openings were delayed. I obviously drove against traffic because on my side there was no traffic and on the other side there were miles and miles of backed up cars. Nobody was at the branch. So I read my e-mails and did a little bit of minor house keeping/reading and when the first employee came in at 10 am, I left. In a little while I will be going up to Canada to a viewing and I have another viewing here tonight. I am not used to viewings where I come from. You just close the casket and bury the people. No, wait! The casket is taken to the funeral chapel in the cemetery and there everyone meets and from there everyone walks to the grave site with the pastor. Afterwards you march into town and have coffee and cake. The family of the deceased has to treat.
