My grandmother, Grandma Ruthie, passed away this afternoon.  She was sick, but it was definitely unexpected.  The reason I'm writing  this is because I may miss a post or two in the coming week while I'm sitting shiva. 

I'll try to write a few things in the next day or so and schedule them out if I can.

all the best,

anne
