One Month Away...
May. 18th, 2006 02:20 pmToday makes it official-to me, anyway. Within one month from today, I will reach an age I truly didn't see myself making, especially after what I've went through a number of years ago. That stuff being my leg, having surgery on my head, and what happened on Christmas in 2002 concerning the dog. I should feel happy about it, and probably will be as the day grows nearer, but at the moment...I'm not sure how I feel about it. It could be a case of uncertainty, or doubt. Still, I hope it will pass.
I managed to make it through May 13th with ease, and enjoyed my cousin's birthday party; she's now officially nine years old. On Mother's Day, I was successfully able to buy my mother a journal, though not just any regular journal-it was a Footprints journal, since when I was younger, I always remembered her enjoying it and having a calendar with it. (For those who don't know what I'm talking about, here is a link to see what I mean.)

I also went to my grandmother's grave with my mother and grandfather, and gave her a rose. I'll never fully get over losing her, but know she's at peace and that is something to be thankful for.
I'm going to a baseball game with one of my friends this evening, and my mother and grandfather may-or may not-be joining us. I just hope the Charlie Brown team can pull the proverbial wool over my eyes and win again.
