Trying Very Hard to Mentally Prepare Myself for Saturday....

SATURDAY.... is move in day at Meredith.

She says, "We have to be there by 7:30
 because \move in starts at 8:00
and WE must be there
before everyone else.














Doesn't she realize I want to drag this
out as long as possible?

But I don't want to be there.
 I don't want HER to be there.  Yes I do.
No I don't.    What the hell is wrong with me?















I am so elated that she is going to begin living out her life....
making all of those BIG dreams come true.

Yet I am absolutely devastated she is leaving.
She is still just a little girl - I say.
"It's time to let go," - he says.














 "Don't worry Mom -
it's my time now" - she says.

"She'll be fine.  It's OUR TIME now," - he says.



















 I'm happy one minute.
Sad the next.
Is this normal?
Does it go away?


I feel like she is leaving...
and taking my heart
with her.

Why do they have to grow up?
I'm just not ready for this.
I'm really not.


Ughhhhhh.

The Outer Banks....

A four hour motorcycle journey through the Outer Banks.

A perfect day with my man and the sea.

A Short Visit to Boone....

for some hiking...

for some pondering...

And some fly fishing with my man.

He's so handsome.

Such an outdoorsman.

I do love him so.

And then, some time 

for some listening...

It is only when we silence the blaring sounds of our daily existence

that we can finally hear the whispers of truth that life reveals to us,

as it stands knocking on the doorsteps of our hearts.
