what does "a blur of activity" mean?

Answer

It is hard to explain but I guess it means that she cannot recognize what is going on around her anymore. A lot of things are happening around her but she takes no notice of them because they are concealed by her sadness. This is why the word 'blur' is used.

Answer

As if it went really fast that you don't remember much. Sometimes there's lots of things going on so not much time to not be busy getting ready for funeral arrangements for instance.
