yeah, i guess i'm back....here

Back in February...to be exact on February 11th, 2006, i posted here...thought I'd post on a regular basis...but i didn't. So, it's now May 8th, 2006...thought i'd post again...not sure why i felt i needed to...but just thought i might.

Soooo, here we are...it's spring of 2006. I've had a ton of changes in my life since i last posted. How shall I wax eloquently on it all??? Not sure I need to do so. But i guess i'll try to wrap my arms around things that have happened in the last few months. Wow, that's an arm-full! Since I last posted, i met a very nice guy. Just sort of happened...out of nowhere. Didn't really expect anything like this. But it happened. It's so weird, you know, when you least expect it, things can happen. So yeah, i met this guy, and it's funny, because I was really happy with my world as it was. Sort of happy with my little "independent world" that I had created for myself. You know, when you're on your own, you make your time mean something, i guess. You fill your fill your time with friends, with your weekly TV prime-time schedule, you settle down and feel that things are okay. Then someone comes into your life and everything changes. Your schedule changes, your weekly routine changes, your expectations change. And then, boom! Everything is different. Is it a good change? Yes, it's good. It feels comfortable, it feels like maybe it's okay for things to change. Was there really that big of a void that i needed to fill? Yeah, I think there was. All I know, is that i like how that void has been filled.

I also know that i like my independent time, too. I like being by myself...is that a result of being on my own for a number of years??? Probably. It's an internal battle...not really a battle...hmm, that's not really a good word for it. But it's just a change, and i'm not opposed to change. It's nice feeling like there's someone who cares enough about me to know what's going on for me each day. That's pretty cool, actually. I guess with all that's happened to me in the last couple of years, well I'm a little cautious. A little concerned with turning over too much of myself. We'll have to see. For right now, I'm pretty happy. Pretty "comfortable"...is that the right word? I guess we'll see on that too. But for now, I'm good with going with the flow.

And while I felt a need to put some of these thoughts down, i also realize that it's almost 11:00 on a Monday night, and I need to put myself in bed and get to sleep. So, I'm gonna do that. But i'll add to this perhaps tomorrow. And then perhaps the next day, and maybe I'll get back to this "online journal" and see how it goes. In the meantime, life is good...life feels right...life as a single girl at 47 ain't all that bad. Smile!!

And looking back at previous posts, and thinking now ahead...well, as i've said before--keep on breathin' everyone! And be glad you wake up breathin' each and every day!

Love to all--

Daffodil

    Good to see you back, daffodil...thought maybe you had left the blogger world. Sounds like your world is good right now. Bully for you! As you suggest, we all keep on breathin'. You do the same! And hey, feeling like you need to keep that independent world of yours going too--well, that's very okay. Us girls need to have our own time. But having a special guy sure makes the time go by even better! Keep it up!
