Things have been extremely busy for me. My bf and I are still going strong. But he is going through a rough spot right now, last week he had an argument with a coworker and he quit his job. He feels very down about it...mostly cause I think that he feels he let me down. I don't think he let me down...he is trying very hard and I know he will find something else and will do very well at it.
On a sadder note, my mom passed away last week. She had alzheimer's (for the past 8 years). As much as I know she is in a better place and is now in peace, it is hard to lose a parent, no matter how old they are. And no matter that she didn't recognize us, it is still very hard. My bf is a great comfort to me, he gives me strength.
She was the best mother and grandmother, she lived for her kids and grandkids. She touched everyone she met, young and old ! She always had a smile on her face, she loved to laugh and loved life, that is what everyone remembers about her.
If I am 1/3 the mother she was, I will have succeeded in being a mother myself.
My regret was she couldn't spend her last years enjoying her grandkids. But this is life, with its ups and downs. We should all enjoy life to the fullest.
