Day ???

I have stopped counting the days.

One day I woke up and decided that I am not going to devote anymore energy to this.

And when I say "this" I mean that analyzing of the implications of alienation from my parents and my sisters.

It sucked but wasn't surprising when I didn't hear from my family for Thanksgiving, Christmas or New Year's.

But it also feels very freeing.

On Christmas Day, my husband and I did something that I had always talked about doing but never did because we would be spending that time with family- we helped feed the homeless.

We volunteered through Union Station Homeless Services along with several hundred other volunteers. We feed over 7,000 meals that day.

It was the best Christmas ever!
