Two years ago today, my husband left.
Joyous memories from the last two years:
1) Ran 3 10k races, and 5 5k races...had several PRs
2) Learned to Zumba, and rocked the house with many good friends
3) Road trips to Oregon, Washington, Oklahoma, Nevada, Arizona, New Mexico with my daughters (our goal is to visit all 50 states before they graduate high school).
4) Turned 40! Friends took me out to dinner, I made a list of ways to rock my 40th year on this earth
5) Gardened like crazy, got many compliments on my summer garden (winter garden still needs a little work)
6) Read a billion self help books, trashed the useless info and made mantras of the useful info
7) Changed churches, which could have been awful, but it wasn't because my new church is so embracing and supportive and fun
8) Made many new friends, and re-connected with some old. All on purpose.
9) Became a better person. In so many ways.
10) Learned my favorite lesson...Finding joy despite my circumstances is always an option.
Life is good.
