It takes a lot to knock me off-center. Wednesday night did exactly that and I needed to lay low yesterday, relax and get my head back together.

Where 2002 was a rough year on the personal side of things, the past 12 months have been a serious roller coaster ride on the…hobby/passion (?) side. An extended spring cleaning in a lot of ways, sorting through six years of accumulated relationships and figuring out which were the real thing, which to save and which to throw away.

At times, it was like looking under the bed and finding an army of dust bunnies lying in wait for the ambush, with my favorite slippers being held hostage.

In the end, it’s all good. It takes a clean break to heal right.

Broken.

Healing.
