Thanks to everyone for you kind words. They really mean a lot to me.
Its been a tough week but I'm slowly climbing the hill. Whilst my Mum was a dyed in the wool "Southerner", I'm certain She got the boys over the line on the Weekend because She really disliked the Bombers with a passion!! Now all I have to do is go through the dreaded Will process where I know some family members are going to cause problems. I wish I could walk away from it all but unfortunately I am the executor but once thats all done and dusted I will then begin to try and get my life back to some normality.
As Ox and WP who have recently lost a parent would know, its those little quiet moments when sadness creeps in, so I am trying to keep myself busy, like posting here to take the edge off the sadness of her not being around anymore. I think its about learning to cope, not trying to forget.
Thanks again everyone!
