I started to write about the terrible fight I had with my mother today -- and thought, why more bad news and tension? Who wants to read that? I'm upset, I feel guilty, and it makes no great difference whether I spend twenty minutes saying so or not. It also causes me to question my vision for my father's upcoming memorial -- the fact that my mother has refused to attend. Until I determine what difference this makes, I may as well keep mum. As it were.
