Mom's Birthday

I'm having a pretty hard weekend. Tomorrow my mom would have been 84. This is her first birthday not on earth, and I feel so alone and lost. I still miss her so much. We took the day off tomorrow so we can go to the cemetery. The last few years, on my mom's birthday, we took her to the casino. She really enjoyed it, and I'm so glad we did it so I have those memories. I'm thinking of stopping there after the cemetery, just to play a machine or two in her memory.

Other than that, I've been stitching on my Friendly Felines pretty steadily on the train home from work, and while watching TV at night when there is time. I'm pleased with my progress. 


Thanks for visiting!

  1. It's always hard to lose a Mom and spend those special days without her. Love how you are planning to do something she liked.

    The cats are looking cute!

  3. I think our Moms are the hardest ones to lose. My mom has been gone for 21 years and I still think of her everyday but I do talk to her often. I love you kitties, they are so cute.

    1. Yes, I still sometimes feel she is alive. Those are the times I do try to find a quiet space to talk to her and tell her the things that are going on. Thank you.
