Spent a good amount of time in the garage. Bought a 4 pack of 4' LED shop lights. Meh, they are OK but not great. Might just use them over a work bench or something.

Police Academy is on Netflix.

Watching that tonight. Just blew through all 4 episodes of Castlevania already. I thought it was very good. Never followed the games closely, so the story was refreshing enough.

Now it's time to head home and play more Doom or MGS:5.

Ok. Dumb question time. I've never dealt with this stuff before so please excuse the ignorance.

What's the difference between a wake, calling hours, memorial, and actual funeral? We are having a memorial service on Thursday and just want to be prepared for everything. I've only ever done calling hours.

Wake is when you usually the time people can come and pay respects to the deceased.

Funeral is the burial.

Don't know the other two

Memorial services are sort of a pre-funeral funeral. Sometimes people will share memories of the deceased.
Calling hours are when people come and pay their respects.
Don't stress too much, the only people that are "good" with this kind of situation are the funeral directors.

We've just always had a showing, then at a later date the memorial service, then the funeral procession to the cemetery where they have any special services i.e. honor guard services ect. then they get buried.

Generally, most people don't remember what you may have said or did when you paid your respects, they just know and appreciate that you were there.

Needs to be brighter in here. Not feeling the LED fixtures, I am thinking flush mountable fixtures will look the best.

Good broad coverage of light. Gets rid of those dark areas.
