Light Dawns on Marblehead

Things have really changed since last week.

At this time last week I was bedridden, in pain, and above all else, scared. Scared that I would lose everything. Crashed up car, beat up body and busted bank account. It was hard to see any glimmer of light in that dark tunnel. It was certainly fitting, as the last year of my life has been one of the hardest that I have endured. One long, dark road with no end in sight.

But like I have been saying all along (and only half- believing it myself) you can't stay at rock bottom forever. Things have to get better.

And they have.

I can say with certainty now that last week was the dramatic cliff-hanger ending to that long, sad chapter in my life.

Damn it feels good to start over.
