Though the current project started as a series of posts charting my grief journey after the death of my mother, I am no longer actively grieving. Now, the blog charts a conversation in living, mainly whatever I want it to be. This is an activity that goes well with the theme of this blog (updated 2018). The Sense of Doubt blog is dedicated to my motto: EMBRACE UNCERTAINTY. I promote questioning everything because just when I think I know something is concrete, I find out that it’s not.
Hey, Mom! The Explanation.
Here's the permanent dedicated link to my first Hey, Mom! post and the explanation of the feature it contains.

Hey, Mom! Talking to My Mother #446 - José Fernandez, RIP
Hey, Mom! Talking to My Mother #446 - José Fernandez, RIP
Hi Mom,
I am still in catch up mode.
I was watching sports news and getting ready for football Sunday this morning when news broke that Miami Marlins pitcher José Fernandez had been killed the night before in a boating accident.
I will have more on this subject later, but the hits keep on coming in 2016, which is a year of many significant and tragic deaths, a time period that for me stretches back to July of 2015.
I am cheating a little, since I am posting back in time, and this screen capture image is from Monday September 26th and a game versus the New York Mets. But the image is so powerful despite the fact that I could not find one that was not a video thumb nail.
More later.
But for now, just stunned silence and deep sadness for José Fernandez, his family, his teammates, and everyone who has died since July of 2015.

Reflect and connect.
Have someone give you a kiss, and tell you that I love you.
I miss you so very much, Mom.
Talk to you tomorrow, Mom.

NOTE on time: When I post late, I had been posting at 7:10 a.m. because Google is on Pacific Time, and so this is really 10:10 EDT. However, it still shows up on the blog in Pacific time. So, I am going to start posting at 10:10 a.m. Pacific time, intending this to be 10:10 Eastern time. I know this only matters to me, and to you, Mom. But I am not going back and changing all the 7:10 a.m. times. But I will run this note for a while. Mom, you know that I am posting at 10:10 a.m. often because this is the time of your death.
