Today ... well, yesterday now since it's after midnight, my mom passed on. My sister and I were with her. She had a peaceful passing.

My dogs are wandering around the house wondering where Grandma is. It's hard to explain to them that she's gone.

I'm not sure how long it will take me to get things settled here and be able to concentrate on my writing again. I'll get there, just not sure how long it will take.

I need to try to get some sleep. The funeral home will be calling early in the morning, and we'll have to go down there and take care of any paperwork etc. I just wanted to share my sad news with you.

Amy,

I'm sorry you're having to go through this. The death of a loved one is hard whether you're prepared for it or not.

I will keep you in my prayers.

Blessings to you,

Nonny
