Not sure if I have missed the chance to come back to you ... you might already be enjoying the [cold] beach ... of which I am still most envious. There are no real beaches here and even if there was, it is ALWAYS BLOODY cold here. On days like today I miss the long stretches of golden sands of my homeland.
I agree re the love and care I have found here. I too am grateful for the people who take the time to read our sitches and offer advice, guidance and sometimes just a simple "you're doing great". It has helped me in my darkest moments. Your sitch gives me hope that one day I will get to a point where I can again look at each day as a blessing.
