Compartments

My mother died on March 31st. It seems like so long ago and yet, in an instant, I am choked up with emotion at the thought of her and the experience of her dying. I miss her very much. She was so fun and full of life and now she's gone. We all were devoted to her. She was an excellent mother in many respects, for adult children, anyway. Losing parents is so complex. This all sounds so trite. I need time to grieve and have no time to myself.
