the house is sleeping--I hear the multiple noises of the air conditioner, music from the back, the house settling for the night. I simply cannot go to sleep so I got up to do something productive. Can't seem to do that either so decided to record my thoughts.
Several of sis's friends have moved into dorm rooms this past weekend; so several of their parents have posted statuses, pics, etc on facebook and twitter to document. I thought I was doing so well in preparing for her move to Ruston; perhaps I have been deluding myself.
tonight I attended the freshman convocation held at NSU for the incoming class. This ceremony is full of pomp and circumstance to herald the beginning of their college career. Dr. Webb, Chris Maggio and others eloquently spoke about the changes that awaited them and how they were pleased and honored they had selected NSU. I was very moved by all this "hoopla". It has slammed me into a funk I cannot seem to shake. hunk of mine doesn't get it.
i am thrilled for her new chapter but mourning the loss of mine. isn't that bizarre?
