Another Trip Around the Sun

Today is my birthday and I sort of feel like the book and movie Eat, Pray, Love. In the past decade, I lived through the death of my best friend to cancer, then the sudden death of my husband, escaped from a truly horrendously abusive relationship, and then the pandemic in a new home and a new city where I did not know a soul. But that is all behind me and I am now happy beyond my wildest dreams and am so incredibly thankful.
