Well I finally got the call yesterday that my Mom has passed. After seeing her Saturday I didn't think she would survive 3 days. The Comic was helpful with just losing her dad in May. She came with me to clear Mom's place which took about 20 minutes like I knew it would. Today I'm going over to the cremation society to finish all the paperwork since I had prepaid everything for Mom years ago.
I'm still a bit shut down emotionally from it. As always I can function normally, but I do feel the loss of part of my emotional self. I did cry some yesterday when the Comic and myself went to see Toy Story 3 with her family. If you haven't seen the movie it is a great one.
Quiet time seems to be the hardest. I'll have it off and on today between patients. The office is slowing down from being busier the last 2 months and I need to start planting seeds so they will grow in the coming weeks. While I don't see myself doing major stuff this week I can still do something. However like this paragraph my focus is wandering.
