My mother died about a week after that post. Obviously, it blows, but I suppose I could be doing much worse. Thanks for asking.

Hang in there and deepest sympathies on your loss. I have some idea how you must be feeling. When I lost my parents suddenly (in an accident), many well-meaning people said it would take a year before things felt "normal" again. I don't know about that. But I do know you shouldn't put an artificial time frame on it, or give too much credence to other people's expectations. Let it happen at whatever pace it takes.
There'll be bad moments and they'll come at you out of the blue--even after many months. Embrace them. It's part of the healing process....and time does, eventually, heal all wounds.
Best wishes,
