I thought of you (and me and many men who were older when they lost a particularly beloved parent) today, listening to Patrick Hemingway talk about his father. http://www.npr.org/templates/story/story.php?storyId=91993806

He is still close to his father's memory, still remembers incidents from when he was an infant through his father's death. And he mentions that at 80, it is still difficult (ell it was early, you can listen yourself for the exact feeling.

I thought it was very moving, instructive.

Anyway, I hope you can relax and have a great weekend. Remembering your mom will always be part of that.
