Feelin' Sad

I just saw my folks off as they were leaving for Heathrow. This is such a last minute thing (I only found out last night while I was at dinner) that they haven't even bought their tickets yet.

My dadi (my father's mother) has taken a turn for the worse, enough to have prompted my parents to leave for Pakistan immediately. It's interesting timing; my brother and SIL are in the process of moving out and had this been a week later I may have had to live totally by myself for the first time, ever. As it stands they'll probably (hopefully) stick around till my parents return.

I've not seen my grandmother since my brother's reception there, and all of a sudden a trip back to Pak seems even more overdue.
