This is my one thousandth post. I started this blog while searching for a new job during the recession when my company shut down. I continued writing through the long, tortuous hunt, through several jobs up until the terminal diagnosis was given to my mom.
A three-year hiatus from writing this blog came next, while I woke up each morning to the realization that my mom was gone, while we adopted our rescue parrot, Piper, and while I completely lost my sight, got a little back and tried to find my footing in a world where everything had changed.
Thanks to technology, the slight healing of my optic nerves and my brokenness, I was able to return to this blog, no wonder compelled to share a new life as unexpected as any life could be. One thousand, three thousand, I will continue, with the hope of reaching just one person with this one message: You will be okay.
