I have been really busy lately getting a life and all. Funny how life is. Sometimes funny in a pull your fingernails out kind of way. Funny also in a what the heck is happening kind of way.
Did you ever see the movie "Awakenings" with Robert Denaro and Robin Williams?
Well, that's how I feel lately. Like I've had an awakening. Like I have been sleeping for the past three years.
It feels pretty good, I must say. People respond to me differently now. I am more open and friendly. Weird stuff, this.
Not a word from h. I feel terribly for my son, but, it is what it is right now.
So, just wanted to stop in and say hi and to let everyone know that this is an incredible journey we are on and do not let the opportunities for growth and self understanding slip past you.
There is still sadness. But it is a dull ache now instead of searing pain. I let it wash over me and then I continue on.
With all growth, there are growing pains. You will still have ups and downs. That is normal and healthy. Embrace those difficult times and use it to become stronger. We are here for you.

Hey FIB, how are you? Oh, you dont have to tell me about embracing the difficult times. I have embraced my whole life and then some. I know that I can survive just about anything.
And thanks for being here for me, my friend. Really.
So, what the heck happened to my party? That's what I want to know.
I am doing well. Feeling much better. Taking my computer class and GAL.
Amazing what can happen when you live your life. People actually like being around you. Who'd a thunk - LOL!
H has disappeared. Not a word. Oh well, whatev!
My glorious son is becoming a wonderful young adult. I was worried about him. He was so lazy in high school, always doing the least he could do. He has stepped it up in college. I couldnt be more proud. Sad h is missing out on this wonderful human being. I am so glad I am not.
So, onward I go. I am learning so much about me, who I am, what I want. I like me. I am ok.
