I am having a very hard time doing any work at the moment. Every time I try to think about getting back to work, I just kind of lose focus and... I just find it very very hard.
My mom died on September 14th. We took her to the hospital where they airlifted her to Providence ... she passed away soon after arrival at Providence.
We had a memorial for her last Sunday and internment was on Monday.
My mom always believed in my writing, so as much as I want to get back to it because she would want me to, it is also very difficult to return to writing. I promised her that I would take care of everyone, however, and I can not do that if I am not working and making money, which means I need to get back to my writing. No matter how hard it is.

I'm sorry to read about your loss. I had a loss of a very beloved person in my life recently (http://marginwight.blogspot.com/2008/09/requiescat-in-pace.html), and though a mother -- especially a supportive one -- is very valuable, I hope you will find a way to grieve and put her loss to you into a healthy perspective.
Thank you. At the moment I am still just trying to refocus myself and get everything I know needs to get done dealt with.
First task is to get ready for all the bills coming up to be paid in a couple of days, then after that I'll be getting back to whatever work I am able to find to prepare for needed repairs to the house's heater and the bills of the months to come.
I suppose that one of the most important things my mom left me was a strong sense of survival, an ability to take whatever life puts in my way and find some way to go on and keep going on.
