Thanks CaliGuy and Wonka :-)

I think I am doing really well right now... I know there are still many hard days ahead, but when I think about the emotional shape I was in back in October, November, and December, I can really see a lot of progress. I'm no longer afraid of a future without my W in it (or in it the way I want her to be in it), but of course I do get sad when I think about it -- but the sadness isn't paralyzing like the fear was.

I am going to be okay. There is no other option.

So for all of my friends here -- I am sending out a big hug and lots of love to all of you for Valentine's Day :-)
