We finally finished packing one of her suitcases last night. Tonight, we will finish the box and do her carry on luggage. Then in a few hours, I will be seeing her off at JFK to finally go home after a year of being with Angelo and me. I find such great comfort hugging Angelo close whenever I think of Mom leaving me.
Yesterday’s adobo was fantastic. We bought some Cold Stone Creamery dessert and Mom enjoyed it. (The quart, though, wasn’t enough for the four of us — next time, I have to get the ultimate bucket.)
This time tomorrow, I will be bidding Mom goodbye for good… until she returns, that is.
