Yesterday was a very hard day for me. For some reason, I got up with momma on my mind. Every time I sat down and had a few minutes to think, the tears started to fall. I decided to serge the edges of some blankets to be donated, hoping that would help calm me down and give me something to smile about. I had just finished my third blanket when the foot fell off the serger. Mom was teaching me how to use the serger before she left me and we hadnt got to how to take apart the serger and put it back together. LOL I had no idea how to get that foot attached back on the serger. All I knew to do was to keep asking mommy to show me what to do. Finally, she told me to let the foot arm down on the foot. You seamstresses out there will know what Im talking about. I did it the first time but it didnt catch. I tried it a second time and it still wasnt hard enough. Mom finally told me to drop that foot arm down hard enough to pick up the foot. I did just what she told me and it worked. Thank you momma. After I finished up all the blankets, I decided to take a break when the phone rang. It was the grief counselor from Amedisys (the hospice group that cared for mom). She told me that she got me on her mind and felt she needed to call and check on me. I had several good crying spells while talking with her. She advised me to get a notebook and just make notes of things I could remember about my time with mom. Believe I will give this a try. Hope you all dont mind reading this. She advised I write what I feel. Mom, you have no idea how much Fred and I are missing you.
