I'm glad that it sounds like you're adjusting well. You never know what life is gonna throw at you. And sometimes it seems like a tough row to hoe for sure. But I believe it is always darkest before the dawn.

And I try to pay attention to the whole ride, even those awful times. (I'm trying to pack a whole house, clean up and paint after 20 yrs here! ) Some of the best stories come from these kinds of trials.

and I know that after this, it'll all be SO much easier.... at least it'll have to FEEL easier in comparison.

And yeah, it is pretty cool eating whatever you want once you remember what that is. I had Little Debbie snack cakes for dinner, lol.
