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, 13 November 2010 -- Day 328 (341)
Apparently I didn't overdo it on the champagne last night since I didn't wake w/ a headache this morning. Good thing, since Maddy and I drove home in near-blizzard conditions. This drive reminded me of last Christmas Eve when we were trying to get to Dad's and had to turn around. Either I'm too stubborn or too stupid b/c I kept going. I'm just glad Maddy was along to keep me company. We got a chance to play word games like we used to do when she and Kenzie were younger, and we go to talk and giggle. These are the kinds of moments that become memories just like all the car rides w/ Mom where we sang silly songs, and she told us stories of the people she knew........Rosie Butts and Oscar Meyer. Honest, she swore those were their names.
