So I'm home with some sort of stomach flu thing right now. And that kind of sucks, but regardless...
Yesterday was a good day. I smiled and laughed and contributed to conversations and soaked in Life. It was the first Good Day in awhile, so it felt really weird to be that happy after feeling sad for so long. It's going to take a lot of getting used to.
This is not to say that I'm going to have nothing but Good Days from now on. That would be a silly assumption. Things don't get better that fast. It is to say that I am taking baby steps, climbing slowly out of this hole I've been in for lord knows how long. And I'm going to slip sometimes, but you know what? That's okay. There are so many wonderful people out there whome I love and who love me and will help me. I'm going to get better. And it's going to be great.
Thanks, my dears. I love you so much.
A wise friend once told me that things don't get Better, they just get Different.

And it will be replaced by another Really Big Deal.
I didn't find comfort in her words for at least 5 years. But now I do.
And I pass them on to you,
