My mother called me today just before I headed out for work. Her aunt died this moring at 2am.
I never really knew the woman, but it hit me kinda hard. Reason being is that she has been sick for months now and it was my intention to go see her before she died. My mother and daughter have been going to see her on a near weekly basis. I kept saying I wanted to go with them but work, faire or other engagements kept me from going up to Redding to see her.
I didn't make it important enough and now she's gone. I feel really bad. I could have gone to see her. I could have taken the time. I could have got to know her a little better while she was still with us but I didn't. I didn't make it important enough. Now I'll never have the chance. I don't like this feeling. Makes me feel selfish. Sad.
