My mum died on the 29th December.
I've moved back to my uni town to give this semester a go ('mature student' btw). I got back on Sunday and feel like I've been crying ever since. It's like it didn't really hit me until I left, maybe because moving back makes it all so final.
But I realised that I think the biggest thing, apart from being away from my brother, cats, and mum's best friend, that I've spent a lot of time with over the past couple months, is that here nobody (apart from one person) knew my mum. In my home village I was always surrounded by people who knew her, eg you can't go in the local coffee shop without seeing someone you know.
It's only been 2 and a bit days, and I know I have to give it time. But I just want to go home.
