I SHOULD go write that book. |
Interesting. I had a MIL that wouldn't go. I couldn't figure out what her "unfinished business" was, but I have an idea. She was a really God fearing Southern lady. You can take it from there.
Me, when I drop dead on the sidewalk from a heart attack, I just want it to be fairly quick. I know that some know they are gravely injured. I can't imagine what has to go through their minds as they expire.
