The Key Ingredient

I've started the work of recovery, and it has opened a door I didn't know existed.

You may expect that skeletons were behind this door; but no, those skeletons dance out in the open, disguised as a normal life. What I did find was more like a map, or a key that turned the tumblers and opened my perspective. I tasted a familiar dish and found it different, changed.

Life Update!

It has been a while since I've updated the blog...have you been wondering what I've been up to in my absence?  I have been:

- Crocheting like a fiend (ALH taught me how to make granny squares! Yay!)
- Reading and absorbing the Codependents' Guide to the Twelve Steps; giving myself enough time to let the material really sink in and take hold.
- Recovering from outpatient surgery (whoop whoop!) which was really just me sleeping for three days straight.
- Thinking and pondering and writing, oh my!
- Exercising my butt off at Urban Active (and waking up at 5am to do it...ooph.)

It's nice to have a lot of stuff filling up my days. Life is complex and meaty and good.

What has been keeping you off the internets?
