Thanks so much, peeps. I can't tell you how much I value everyone's support here. I don't think I'd be where I am today with out all of you cheering me on. And I very much enjoy cheering everyone else on, too.
I was thinking this weekend how proud of myself I am that I can survive without any help. As old as I am, sometimes I still feel like a teenager. I forget that I am an adult, and that all of my successes or failures are a direct result of what I do or don't do.
SO: I found a beautiful apartment and I will survive (dare I hope -- even THRIVE!!) here. On my own. Supporting myself.
I don't need BF to be happy and fulfilled. I don't need to rush into another R, as a means of running away from myself or my issues. Instead, I'm working on me, being self-aware of my strengths and weaknesses and choosing to better me FOR me.
I am on a path to healing, improvement, and rebirth.
Also, I'm tickled pink that this morning I had two cats watching me take my morning tinkle. I haven't lived alone and tinkled with the door open since 2003. Hehehe.
^^^^ All good little and I'm sure you'll thrive
