Mom is gone.
It's a relief, really. I'm tired of everyone telling me how I should feel. I'm not a crier, and everyone is worried because I'm not breaking down. Part of it is that I believe that when you have a child, you lose the right to lose it. I loved my mom more than I can express. I'm getting a little over-sympathied...if that makes any sense... I think part of it is that it may not have fully hit me yet...she's not around anymore. she was only 55.
Take care of your health, people. myself included. I have some changes to make in my life. I don't want my daughter worrying about this when she's my age.
Also, make a will. Designate beneficiaries on your insurance policies. I'm sure mom just thought it was a given that everything would go to myself and my two siblings, but it's such a pain in the ass with her not naming us as beneficiaries.
It's weird. I'm 34 and just want my mommy. I'm sure everyone that reads this understands.
I'm rambling. i know this blog is disjointed, but I've had about 12 hours of sleep this week (she died Tuesday afternoon).
This is us...mom, brother, sister, me, and all her grandkids (except 1) at the Houston Museum of Natural Science last fall. she was an amazing woman.

There really isn't anything I can say that can do your mom justice. Just know that she is always there with your in your memories with her. Everything she taught you, every little bit she put into making you the person you are today is her. And I'm sure she's proud of you.
I hope all goes well with the will. Take care of yourself.
