Undas is tomorrow: Time to honor our dead relatives

 I had the maid clean up Lolo's grave last week, and today we went to visit.

Undas is tomorrow, but we went early: tomorrow there will be crowds and we wouldn't be able to not drive to the grave, and I am too old to walk (especially since it is raining on and off).



The old cemetary where Lolo's mother and some relatives are buried is free to visit, but his grave is in the newer area so there is a maintenance fee that we had to pay before they would let us in.

After the visit, we went to McDonalds to eat breakfast, and to buy a heater for the shower head in the guest room

Lolo's grandkids are vitisting in a week, and the original plan was for them to stay in Kuya's apartment, but the typhoon blew out his windows and some damage, so we will put them in the guest room, which doesn't have a shower head heater (we moved it to Joy's bathroom when hers burnt out).

So we went to the hardware store and bought one for 100 dollars. The one in my bathroom was twice that price, but I got a heavy duty one that hopefully will last more than five years.

It is overcast, and we'll probably have showers later today, which is bad for the rice which is only 80 percent dry, but tomorrow is supposed to be sunny.
