First my Friday #TVWatch, “Television as comfort food.” It’s a little different this week, for obvious reasons.

In case you missed the news, after a long, horrible, protracted illness, my mom passed away on Saturday. This week was was a blur leading up to the arrangements. Wednesday was the day. Yesterday I allowed myself the luxury of doing nothing, outside of seeking good shows to watch.

So I’m pretty late, it’s been a spotty posting week, but I’m here.

I’m here.

There’s much still to process, and much to think about. What I’ll write about on Tuesdays at Medium, for example, as the habit has come to suit me.

There is a lot ahead and a lot behind and I suppose that is the truth about life.

I will not linger today, and we’ll see what next week is like, I am trying to follow the advice of being kind to myself. It’s not always easy.

So you give it a shot too, and we’ll reconvene next week. Have a great weekend.
