H just moved out, 13 months post-bomb

[Dawn of Hope]

Hi, Ali,
Awww, that's so sweet of you! Thank you so much for the compliments, and for posting to me! I know people always say they don't post because they don't know what to say, but even just expressions of support mean a lot to me!

Our friend Lynn got H to tell her where he was living, but he made her promise not to tell me. He even invited her to visit, although I don't think she has yet. So I suppose if there were mitigating circumstances, I could find out from her where he lives, but I wouldn't ask without a really good reason. I'd be curious to know if he really does have a bare minimum of furniture, as he told me, or if the several thousand dollars he paid to the furniture store in OW's area actually resulted in something for his place...or if he was just buying lots of expensive furniture for OW.

I REALLY want to get off this roller coaster. I suppose it will just take some more time to truly detach. I know I have made progress, since things that threw me completely for a loop a year ago would barely make a ripple with me now, but I'm not in the end zone with detachment yet. (Big note here: this may be the only time in my life I ever use a football metaphor, since I'm mostly sports-averse!)

I made myself a really long to-do list last night, so I'm going to get on with it now that I feel a bit better. First order of business is a nice little sweaty, exhausting weightlifting workout.

Peace,
Dawn
