February was my Birthday month, and it was nice. Finally took a long-awaited trip to California, San Francisco to be exact and I quite enjoyed it. Solo trips are my thing, and it is one of best therapy tools that I used in the last few years. Staying in downtown San Fran in Fisherman Wharf was the perfect spot to enjoy food trucks, local stores, participate in a street festival, take a yacht tour to see the Golden Gate bridge and relax on the beach. Perfect weather, nice people and the best time to meditate and spiritually thank my Mom and all my relatives watching over me. A superb experience. I highly recommend anyone that has made it to the healing part of the grieving process to do solo trips. It is what your loved ones would want for you. Well Worth it!

So, looking at 2024 and the beginning of 2025, and I am reflecting on the past five years after my mother's death and how far I've come. Yes, there were some ups and downs, but I look around and I made it and did quite well. I would have never thought I could survive my mother's untimely death but also other loved ones. Within my circle, friends and other family members experience the same loss and it was quite difficult. I felt that any and everywhere I looked, someone that I cared about was in the same situation and it was becoming overwhelming. So, I decided to blog, old school and release my feelings out to not only help me but others in a similar situation. Blogging helped me but I believe I can do better, so I will be more consistent starting now. Let's Do This! My Mother's Only Child. Sherri M. Littleton
