Today I realize I just do not have much to say. Well, it is me we're talking about so that statement is relative to my normal ability to write five pages about a dozen different things. Today, however, I'm just not feeling it. I have a headache, a 36 hour headache at this point and there does not seem to be any news really worth commenting on. I think I'll leave you with silence and white space today. I am feeling quiet and a little distant, a luxury many of you do not get to have.
I cannot imagine having to deal with a family every single day. I like my alone time and living alone, without children, and far from family gives me that ability to just hibernate for a day or two without hurting anyone's feelings. When I have a headache there is nothing I want less than people, I seriously do not know how most of you do it. I long for solitude when I have been social or too busy to spend time alone. I do not miss being out on a Friday night, or having drinks with friends, I am completely content at home alone.
When I think about not having children and the worry that I will one day regret it, I always try to remember moments like these when the mere idea of noisy, energetic little creatures demanding my time and attention are enough to give me a headache all over again. No, I think I am content without being a Mommy, without being a social butterfly, without the fear that I am missing something by staying home on a weekend night. Life is good all by itself, and sometimes that is enough.
