It's almost been a month since my mom died.

I actually tried to get on and blog a bit the other day, but the computer wouldn't let me. Ugh.

First of all, THANK YOU to all of you for your support. I have received either a card, phone call, email, or flowers from just about every person I know and it has really meant a lot. I have learned that I really appreciate things like cards when someone I love has died. This means that I will be way more thoughtful (and send a card at least ) to others when things like this happen to them.

I am doing ok. Some days are fine and some days are fine for several in a row. Other days are not. Some days I feel sad like I've never felt sadness before. It sounds very dramatic and tragic, but it's true. This is not the first sad thing that's happened to me, but I think it's the worst.

Like it or not, things are moving on. Jack's second birthday is in a month. I am continuing to look for a new job. The carpet is continuing to need to be vaccuumed. There is still a little boy to take care of, dishes to wash, cars to fix, etc, etc.

I think what Keith and I both really need is some fun. Unfortunately, there's just not much time for it. School starts soon here and that means our jobs are about to get crazy again and we still have to figure out if we can continue to run our after school business if I get a new job. We did get to go to Carraba's last week (thank you, Amy... that was one of the best things anyone could have done for us) and that was really, really good. Not just the food, which of course, was good, but being together and relaxing for an hour.

Anyway, just wanted to check in and let everyone know how much I appreciate them thinking of me and my family. I'll write more again soon.
