An update..on me!!!

It has been awhile since I posted but I have still not returned home!!! I have not spoke to my mother or grandmother in 3 weeks..it has been very peaceful and I think I should miss them but I don't. I know in time I will have to talk to them but I am not ready to deal with them at all. As for Lauren I have talked to her a couple of times and she came to where I am living on Tuesday , she asked if she could come, I told her yes but she could not stay!!! When she was ther I was kinda nervous, I felt like she was in my space!!! Other than that things are good, I am happy for the first time in a long long time. It feels different but I really like it. I have a life and I desreve to be happy!!!!:atv

Good for you! I think it's a very wise decision to keep a safe distance between you and your family for however long you need. It took a lot of courage and strength to walk away from the familiar pain and toward unknown happiness. Hold tight to it and don't let go

Wow! Great place to be!
Its amazing the peace you can get when you let go of the chaos.

for the past year I have been taking care of myself for the first time in my life. I feel peace knowing I can be happy even when those I love are not in a good place.
Every little success feels great. Only having to take care of myself is such a huge load off my chest I feel years younger. So I understand why you don't miss it all.
Relationships are still very important to me but they don't have to consume me. It took me getting away by myself for a while to realize this and learn how to take care of me and still love those I love in a healthy way.
I never thought I could feel happy in my own place in my own skin.
I am happy for you!8
