V, once again, you've inspired me! You are such a treasure. Thank you so very much for pointing me in the direction of awareness and growth. I shattered again over the weekend, but feel myself knitting back together stronger than ever.
I'm taking the time you suggested to let myself just feel it all, process, and learn. Your guidance and caring have been invaluable.
Happy New Year to you, too, V! I can't think of anyone who deserves it more. Thank for your ever-so-kind and humbling words a few posts back about my being a role model. I think of you as my role model. You are a strong, independent, fierce lady.
Best wishes on this "new year" and new life you have ahead of you. The journey will be grand.

This weekend was also an anniversary for me. 2 years since BD. Columbus Day Weekend here in the states. My kids keep reminding me what a terrible man that Christopher Columbus was. I guess it is fitting that my BD happened on the day that honors an abusive, lying, cheating, greedy man. But we get a three day weekend out of it, so there you go. I enjoyed my third day immensely, this year.
But there are better things to come. And as frustrating as it is to unravel a nest of tangled wool, it is also extremely satisfying as each knot gets free. You are doing the work you need to do, V. You are amazing to me!

I don't remember any of it but as is the case for any good party, if I don't remember it I must have had a really good time.
Do you have any good tips for dealing with a hangover?
