I'm feeling better about things.
It has been an absolutely difficult week, many deadlines, working long hours and trying to keep up the momentum for the next month and a half in order to finish school is draining. I fell asleep at 8:30 last night and didn't wake up until the alarm at 6 a.m. So I must have needed it. But that's why I've had a bit of a low profile lately, just catching up on the zzzs, doing what needs to be done, and recuperating. I didn't even feel too down after dealing with my mother on the phone. Much as it still bothers me that she is the way she is, I just am letting it roll over me. It helps that my own daughters are so delightful, T called tonight, and I could hear the energy in her voice. She makes me so proud that she is so independent, beautiful and intelligent. And N is so passionate and full of life. Her potential is just a wild thing - even when she is thinking that I am just a friggin parent, I know that she is destined for great things. :-) I have made them both promise that they will not allow me to become like my mother. I intend on embracing life for a very long time. And these days, I'm moving in that direction.
Well, at least, that's the plan.
