Just when you think you've got everything figured out.......
WHAM! It hits you. Just how mortal you really are.
Hubby's ex died the other moring.
She was only 48.
Heart attack.

Well from what I've been able to gather, she was a severe diabetic, smoked the strongest brand of ciagarettes, and she was overweight.
We're going to the wake/funeral today. Don't want to. neither of us really cared for her that much (hubby hated her, seriously hated her), and we sure as hell didn't respect her, but, I don't know. We just have to go.

Well by attending the funeral you show her family a little respect plus its a way of drawing a definite line under that part of your hubby's life.

Yeah, I know. Funny thing is, I'm still really angry at her. Is that a type of mourning? Can you mourn for someone you never liked?

Yes it is possible to morn for and feel anger at a person you dont like. You probably feel a mixture of anger and grief/guilt, anger because once again she has forced her way in to your life causing emotional turmoil in your family... and guilt because you have the angry feelings towards a woman who died too early, people can feel anger towards people they love very much so I'd say what you are feeling is perfectly normal.... hows your hubby taking it all.
