Emerging Back Into The World

I think I'm finally emerging from the fog of grief. I'm feeling the urge to write again. I'm getting my shit together. I went to the gym today for the first time in ages and I've booked the B&B, the train tickets and the hotel for my birthday weekend in Paris.

Still have to phone the doctor's about my birth control, because I've finally decided to go on it. Watch this space.

So... how is everyone? Is anyone still reading this? ^^;;

Oh, this post makes me happy for you <3 I'm especially glad that you're still going to Paris - I think it's awesome that you always do that.

(Pardon my inability to write more - jet lag is killerrrr. But still <3!!)

I'm here! I hope that you enjoy Paris - and glad that the fog is dispersing - but don't be surprised if it has another go at you now and then

Still reading! Although I've been a total fail at commenting, sorry. :(

But yay for Paris! It's a lovely place, you'll have so much fun. :D

I wish I could go on the pill or something, because my cycle is shot to shit. I fear menopause looms large, even though doctors won't have any of it when I tell them my mum was done and dusted with the menopause at my age, so genetically, I'm running late. I wish they'd look at me as an individual, rather than as something that is trying to fall outside of textbook statistics.

And I can't even have HRT becasue of my cancer history, so I'll just have to suck it up. D: /TMI commment

Take your time adjusting to your loss. In my experience it doesn't go away, it just changes as you do.

I'm glad you are not abandoning you craft. And I envy you traveling to Paris.

The urge to write again after a period away is the best feeling ever!!!

I'm so glad you've got your Paris trip sorted out. That'll be really lovely for you.

I'm here :) This sounds a lot like the good stretch I had a couple weeks ago. I'm glad you're on the mend.

Glad you are doing all those things for you. Grief really robs your energy; I've experienced it firsthand.

This is probably very silly of me but I cannot tell you how much I want to join you and your sister in Paris.

To the extent that my plans in September take the form of "I dunno/Dunno/Dunno/Be in Paris, go to this restaurant/Dunno/Go to Amiens, I guess"

I don't mean that in a creepy way, but in a, OMG I love this idea way.

I'm doing all right!
