getting on with it

so after a rather distressing year,

with failing health and a boyfriend of 13plus years revealing

 "i've found someone on line"

i finally feel like i may have gotten my feet back under me.

it's the little things that i have been taking back.

like today i went to the movies with a great friend.

we saw the black swan.

it was very good. dark and very good.

and the health thing? i have decided i better take care of myself.

i know after 58 years it's sad it took me this long.

but there you are. i am. and things are better.

i am happy again.

now stir in my granddaughter, emily, the light of my life. 

i am happy again.

so now i feel like i really can contribute to the art doll collective two spectacular women have included me in. maybe all this is a result of the companionship and support of these fine artistic friends. and what it all comes down to is

i am happy again.
