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.

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 #1059 - Compiling - xkcd
Hey, Mom! Talking to My Mother #1059 - Compiling - xkcd
Hi Mom,
I had intended a post on Kotlin today that would mirror the presentation that I am giving tonight.
But I have to plug a few more holes in it first, teach a class, mow the lawn, and make the bed after washing the bedding.
It's a busy day. Not a lot of time for "compiling" some original content ruminating on why Kotlin is a wonderful language, improving on Java.
I will surely write these thoughts on Kotlin soon, but not today. I lost a lot of time just figuring out how to get a program to run after downloading the Kotlin plugin for the Eclipse Jee Mars IDE. I want to try IntelliJ, but both that IDEA and Android Studio are too expensive in resources and potentially money (Jetbrains wants $$ unless I am a student), and so it's the Eclipse plug in for now. I did finally get programs to run, which I consider a huge success.
In any case, in lieu of the post I wanted to make on Kotlin, here's a good xkcd comic thta I came across in my research of Kotlin.
Sadly, I am also out of chocolate. :-) Just FYI.

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

NEW (written 1708.27) NOTE on time: I am now in the same time zone as Google! So, when I post at 10:10 a.m. PDT to coincide with the time of your death, Mom, I am now actually posting late, so it's really 1:10 p.m. EDT. But I will continue to use the time stamp of 10:10 a.m. to remember the time of your death, Mom. I know this only matters to me, and to you, Mom.
