ok ...

2010 ... 7 months into it ... has been the best year of my life. I pledged to so many things and I have seen so many things come my way, so many more than I called for. I had almost forgotten about this blog. A number of friends are moving their blogs over to another site and this sparked my interest in blogging again. This past week I spent a late night reading my blog from beginning to previous entry of "Roe vs Wade".

I have loved this blog and this blog has loved me.

I have gone back and forth with the idea of a newsletter as I have grown. I just don't resonate with a newsletter, yet. I keep coming back to this blog as it feels like home to me and for me.

I am coming up on the annual celebration of Gayle's life, it's that time of the year and I am called to celebrate part of it here, with loyalty and continued devotion and my never ending ... only growing love for her. (Jamie ... I love you and I always will, when you read this know this).

I am so grateful. Here come the tears.

I am going to open the pages of this public journal again.

I am going to open myself to this exposed form of healing.
