Just for clarification, beacuse I know it’s been … what? Like five point seven years since I’ve been here?

I am alive. I am okay.

It’s just this thing called life, real life, got in the way. Correction — I allowed it to get in the way.

I’ve had a whirlwind past couple months. I’ve had to step back, while stepping up. Figure shit out. Be a mom. Be a wife, and in general, be a functioning person.

I’m still working on that last part, quite honestly.

So I let some things go. A lot of things, actually. I couldn’t deal with one more thing to do. That’s what it felt like, coming here, just another thing on my list.

I put myself in check and I disappeared. Disappearances can really be so helpful. They can point you in the direction best for you pretty damn quick.

In my case, I have come to the following conclusion: I’ve missed you. I’ve missed this time. My connection here. I might be busy, but I can make time. It’s pretty much necessary to my sanity.
