Visiting Our Grocery Store Today Took My Breath Away. And I Couldn't Get It Back.

Visiting our grocery store today took my breath away. And I couldn't get it back.

My first post exactly one year and a week ago.  So many things have changed from this time.  But some things remain constant:

I survived.  I’m surviving.

Prologue

I survived you.

Hunting

My new found self worth tells me I should be making more money.

This could end up being a problem.

I still get reclusive during this time of year.  I’m trying, but I’m not there yet. At least I didn’t cower in the basement for hours.

My parents are spending their Friday night going through old unlabelled spices and dried herbs in their cupboards and trying to guess what they are based on the smell. They're so pumped when they're certain they've identified one; they may just be having the time of their lives.

This is clearly #relationshipgoals. So I wonder how I grew up seeing my folks who genuinely love and like one another and still ended up in a relationship that nearly killed me.

What went wrong in this brain of mine?

I had a successful date. A very successful date.
