CENSORING MY WRITING?

I stopped writing for a few days cause I'm in a quandary. My daughter, the new resident in our home, suddenly decided after 18 months of ignoring my blogging...to read it! She apologized for being a "hassle" to us or causing any problems. UGH, I just wasn't sure what to do. Should I keep pouring my heart out and blogging about this awkward, sometimes stressful, but never the less delightful situation we now find ourselves in...or do I stop blogging about our household transition?

I've made the decision to keep writing. If I find that I feel censored at all and not able to let the "juices" flow, then I will have to stop. But until then...here's the latest update:

She's found another man. He seems a nice enough fellow. Very personable. Older and more mature than the ex. The problem I see possibly developing (and I always look for trouble)is his location. He lives an hour away. Some of this is good cause it means that she only sees him occasionally...mostly on weekends, so they shouldn't grow tired of each other for quite awhile, if at all. However, I wonder if he will eventually grow weary of the drive all the time once the newness of the relationship wears off. Not sure I could deal with another broken heart right now.

I wish that she was still dating other people. Looking around, testing the waters. But she is "giddy" over this one, so we'll just have to be patient and see how it plays out. At least she's smiling more than she did and that's a welcome relief!
