It’s been a long time since I’ve written anything on here. I continue to write a lot – both morning pages and I’ve started writing a letter to myself every night. I’d love to make it here more often. 

I’m in NJ. I’m sitting in the backyard of M and M’s house.

It feels like it’s been so long since I lived here. It’s only been 4.5 months since I left, but it seems like a lifetime ago. I’ve had a really good time bumming around the city the last couple days and it was great to see M and M last night. We ate candy and played games with A. 

Though I miss being out here, I don’t think I’m headed back. I think I’ll live out here again at some point, but right now Mpls is a good place to be. I’ve got my writing classes, yoga, work. My life is really full in Mpls. Well aside from the dating I don’t seem to be doing. 

All the work I’ve been doing in Mpls is paying off. I feel so calm and centered a lot of the time. I’ve actually been happy which is such a strange change of pace. The yoga has definitely made a difference, as has the new therapist. There are still a few things to get worked out, but I feel like I’m closer to being back to my old self. Whatever that may be.

I’ll try to stop back in before another month and a half passes.

I almost forgot to mention – I’ve also been thinking more about Colombia and whether I should take off for a while. I know I’ll do it eventually, but maybe that eventually will be sooner rather than later.
