We'll do Thanksgiving with one of Tim's brothers' family -- not the whole large group (38, including kids), but more like 15-ish, which is still big enough. I suspect we may be watching K-Pop Demon Hunters, because 2 of the great-nieces are *obsessed* with it. (I'm wondering if they'll be impressed I know the words to most of the songs?)

We have a funeral this afternoon for Tim's uncle, and true to form, Tim is fretting about people asking him (the cancer patient) how he's doing, instead of focusing on the deceased. I told him people can talk about more than one thing, and he's not going to steal all the attention at a funeral.

people asking him (the cancer patient) how he's doing

I refuse to say, "I'm fine."

My favorite answers have become:

• "I have good days, and I have bad days."
• "So far so good!"
  
• "Not dead yet!"

Which one I use depends on how quickly I want to shut down the conversation.
