It's been a long time

Yes, I've been in hiding.

I'm a changed woman...and that change is a good thing.

2 years of therapy, going dry till I could figure out how to drink without getting trashed. Saving money, buying a house, having an actual profession that I love. That all involved a lot of discipline but it paid off in the end. I was self sabotaging but I've grown, I've changed, I've healed.

I am now a woman, a happy woman, who loves herself and loves being alive. I was on a downward spiral but I crawled out of it and am better than ever.

Through this process I let go and/or hid from many "friends ". I had to deal with some hard truths and in order to do this, Io locked myself in my house for about a year. I had the occasional coffee or dinner, went to the gym, went to therapy, wrote a ton, and spent time with my garden, my dog, my cat, and for the first time, myself.
