How do I tell my mom I'm going to a girl's house without feeling guilty about it?

So first a little background. I'm 26, not a virgin, and I live at home with my mom and brother, due to family reasons, the details of which are irrelevant to this post. Basically, I go to work in the morning, come home in the afternoon, eat dinner, and stay home all evening, and do it all over again the next day. I have no social or romantic life basically. My mom believes that the right person will come along for me eventually, and I shouldn't go out of my way to find that person, because whats meant to be is meant to be.

All of that being said, I met this woman a few months ago who is older than me by a few years, recently divorced, has a child, and lives on her own with said child. when I met her, I went to her place a few times when I had been sent home from work for the day early (due to low volume of work those days), and we had our fun, but I never said anything about it to my mom, because its not her business what I do, especially when She didn't know any better. I never intended it to be a secret, but I didn't want to share something so personal, especially when she already knows everything I do everyday.

Now, my friend has invited me over to her place this afternoon, as her child will be at her ex's, and the intention is that we will be having sex. Being the weekend, I can't disguise it as being at work, and I figure some honesty is going to be needed, but I also know that she's going to guilt trip me about it. I have no doubt she'll tell me she doesn't care if I go, but I know I'll catch grief about it at some point. So I'm looking for advice on what to do. please help.
