today was my daughter's birthday!

Yep, the same one who just graduated from college, just got a brand new job with a promotion in 2 days, also just had a birthday today...is she having a good couple of weeks or what? :D

We shopped...and shopped...she got stuff and I watched, is what it amounted to! But it was fun! Then we met the rest of the family and her friends at Texas Land and Cattle and had a wonderful, chatty dinner...Then we went to see the new Harry Potter movie! It was good...I have read all the books so it was amazing to me to see again the characters and creatures in the books come to life. There were 8 of us in one row...the theater was PACKED, good thing the kids are smart enough to order the tickets online!

I am now wide awake and all alone, dammit...
Sometimes I wonder how or why I am here, now, just me and the cat. Because I won't settle for less? Because I am too picky?
Because I need to learn that I can do things myself and be alone and it's all ok...? It just doesn't feel natural to be alone, but I am afraid that if I am alone too long, I might not be able to adjust to living with anyone ever again...do I worry too much? Probably...I think it is a genetic affliction...I attribute my worrying to having a far too active imagination. :roll:

ok...I am going to read some blogs...you all are wonderful, keep the faith, this is a virtual community and I love it here!

Pax vobiscum...

I worry about being single all the time. I have pretty much the same thoughts...Is it because I am too picky? Is it because I have some lesson to learn? Is it really a choice on my part? etc. I can go around and around with those thoughts for *hours* ;)

I am trying not to 'worry' about it so much as just 'ponder'...does that make sense? Or do I analyze too much? I just realized that the first part of analyze is 'anal'...hmmm...
