some big news, a.k.a. what is going on with me

some big news, a.k.a. what is going on with me

I haven’t been talking very openly about some of my struggles the past year, but now I think it is time. I’ve confided in some of my close friends, but I’ve been trying to get the courage to write about it here, on my public blog. A little background first.

I even wrote her a 2 year old letter and didn’t get a chance to post because getting to the computer those days…
