Make sure your mother knows shes appreciated. Abreak up can be very hard as I'm sure you realize. Weather she shows it she may be hurt more that it shows or she even ralizes. So make sure you spend more time with her chatting, talking doing things for her ect than usual. Also turn your intelect and creativity toward making her happy. even if she tells you it's not nescessary. i've had that done for me and I appreciate it more than I let or or realize. It's just the way things are. How are you doing BTW. Want any e-mail surprizes sent up from SF? Bsteph
