Thank you so much, ladies. It's wonderful to have a place just to vent, ya know?
It's Saturday morning here and Mum's ashes are sitting on the table behind me. I'll be heading up the coast soon for the scattering, and I am so glad I won't have to do it by myself...my man is coming with me for support and a lovely big manly shoulder to cry on. And I'll be remembering the good stuff...she did it tough as a single mother to two kids (the exact situation I find myself in now), though I'm doing a lot better than she did. She tried to be strong for us, but it just wasn't part of her character. She let life get on top of her, and I have the ability not to let that happen. So I think I'll be OK....it will just take some time.
