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 #512 - Christmas with Cousins 1984
Hey, Mom! Talking to My Mother #512 - Christmas with Cousins 1984 - Photo Series One #10
Hi Mom,
Here's a great picture of my cousins: Lois (left); Ward, Jr. (center); possibly his girlfriend and later wife Amy (but I am not sure); my sister, Lori (right); Aunt Brenda (farther right), Lois and Ward's Mom; and me in the front.
In December of 1984, I had just finished my senior Fall at K-College and was planning to leave for New York in a few weeks on my internship at Marvel Comics.
I know you would proud of me sharing a photo of your family, Mom.
I don't have as much contact with Lois these days, but I interact with Ward quite a bit. This is very cool picture of the both of them, and of my sister, who is 15 when this was taken.
I wonder when these family gatherings changed so we were not relegated to sitting at the "kids table" and could eat with the adults?

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.
