Mighty, my sweet, you know this is a process. It takes time.

I'm at 5.5 years, 2 years post divorce, and it's just now starting to feel like normal is once again achievable.

Grief and PTSD are my old friends. They live on either side of me. We have learned to do things together, as opposed to my pretending they don't exist. I took them to this cool champagne bar/used bookstore last weekend.

I think we have scars from this journey--scars that prove we loved hard and we didn't take it laying down when our spouses went wackadoo.

I can't wait to see what good things are around your corner. Asheville is only a short drive away :-)
