The last two and half years have been a whole thesaurus worth of words describing challenge. I have, several times, had part of an update typed up and then decided against posting it for a myriad of reasons.
There have been many moments of heartache, anxiety, sorrow, fear and so much loss. Occasionally there have been moments of unexpected comfort and strength in spite of hardship. Even less often there have been chance moments of bittersweet joy. Truly happy moments have been in super short supply. Suffice to say, it's been rough.
Rather than dwell on what has been, what it has cost and what we have lost, I think a clean slate start is where my heart points. So, acknowledging that my last post left many things unfinished, and this one is leaving even more unsaid, let's go forward anyway!
