today was my d-day

[Awoken]

again, I return to the boards, and I'm touched by the wellspring of support here. Thank you to everyone. I'm not sure why I haven't been checking in, except that I've just felt overwhelmed.

I did receive some very meaningful support in the .alt.

I think I'm ready to regroup; and get back to the work I need to do. I'll be back and post more when I have time. I'm finding that I'm missing our community here. This is really a very special place.
