(I am not complaining) BUT, it was probably the last day I would ever be in my Mom's home.

My sis and I finished packing her things, and then I told my Sis to go home. I wanted to scrub her floors myself and just be there for a while alone.

It was soooo hard to say Good bye to everything that once was....

I felt my Mom there w/me, but the only thing wrong was.... I didn't get that physical hug when I walked out and locked the door for the last time...

I turned to look back at her home just hoping that I would see her in the doorway waving... Like I said, a very hard day.....
You know DM, I know exactly how you feel. And she's waving, you can feel it in your heart. I am not going to sugar coat this stuff cuz the next few days (probably more) are gonna be hard. I know it. Been there done that with my dad. My heart broke when he died. I didn't have to do what you are doing tho, packing up the house, saying goodbye to the physical stuff, but just the same, I had to say goodbye to him and damn it hurts. And it's gonna hurt.

You and your mom were close. And she will always be there DM. But you've got a lot of good friends who are going to be here to help you through this, but you are strong. And you have a whole lot of memories to keep her alive in your heart and mind. Hang on to that.

She was a special lady, just like you. Here's a hug for you DM. Go hug Denny and have a rum and coke for me! You can have one for you too!
