My mother passed away on December 10, 2009. I needed a way to help myself work through the grieving process. I knew that just writing an occasional entry in a paper journal wouldn't help me deal w/ the myriad of emotions. I've pledged to write in this blog every day for a year to chronicle what I hope will lead from the pain of mourning to the glory of remembrance.

Saturday, 03 July 2010 -- Day 195 (208)
I implemented my Law of O.R.C.A. today by doing exactly the opposite of what I did last year at this time. Last year I had salads prepared and chicken and beef kabobs for the grill along w/ several different desserts ready for my family, but this year I've made nothing. The only family I've surrounded myself w/ are my daughters. Instead of Doug making us a fish fry like he did last year, he went fishing while the girls and I went to Kenzie's softball tournament and ate out. Yes, it's denial and avoidance, and I plan on doing the same thing tomorrow.
