another update:

Mom called this morning, invited me to her wedding on Friday at 11 a.m.! I'll be on the road tomorrow - it's going to be wierd to see Mom with another man not my dad, as I haven't seen her since this started. Bottom line is, I'm happy for both her and the groom and love them both very much so the wierdness will just have to stay on the back burner. At least my family is NOT boring!
