I lost my mom three years ago tonight.

I always hesitate telling people how long it's been, because when they don't understand how it feels, they think you're over it.

But I miss her and it hurts. It brings a lot of other things back.

Luckily, my aunt had invited me over for lunch and a friend had me over tonight. It kept me occupied.

Love you, Mom. A bushel and a peck.
