Haven't had much of anything of real importance to blog about. Nothing that would be of real interest....
It's been two month's since my mother's passing, I still have a hard time accepting the fact that she is really gone. Certain days, at certain times, when the phone rings my mind tells me that it's her calling... as quickly as I think that, I realize it couldn't be her because she's not here... Recently I found myself wondering why she hasn't called me...then I realized she can't...
I've had a lot of mixed emotions since her death... mainly sorrow but also anger and confusion surrounding her illness, her care at the hospital and how she left things. After almost a month her place was cleared out, her household boxed and stored. My brother and I took the things that were special to each of us home, it comforts me to have some of her dishes, towels, plants and other things here with me. In going through her stuff I discovered she had an affinity for Bibles - I brought well over eight or nine of them to my home. Perhaps I will read one or two of them... I'm sure she would want that.
The pictures above are from my child hood - pictures of my mom, dad, brother and me. My mother had tons and tons of photos of us! I really have enjoyed going through them. My goal is to organize them into nice photo albums so that my daughter can have them to look at in years to come.
Hopefully things of interest will come about and provide me with something exciting to blog about. In the meantime...this is all I got!
Although I haven't lost a parent to death (my father is currently terminal with cancer), I understand what you're going through. No one expects you to forget, but things will get better. You have your brother and other family members, along with friends, to lean on.
By the way, love the photos.
