Rough day today
Today would have been my mother’s 62nd birthday had she not passed away four years ago. So it’s been a pretty rough day for me today so far. Special days like today I try not to dwell on the past and the fact that I no longer have my mother. But at certain times the sadness does creep up on me.
I think life would be a little easier on me had I seen her death coming, but I didn’t. She died very unexpectedly and I wasn’t even able to say goodbye to her. So sometimes I wonder if the circumstances surrounding her death makes it a little more difficult for me to deal with days like today. But unfortunately (or fortunately) life must go on. So even on these special days I have to move on as well. It certainly does help that I have her grandchildren with me. Dealing with them all day makes me try not to be quite so sad.
But I surely do miss her.
