A lot can happen in 365 days

I just hung up the phone with my boss.  I said, "Guess what happened a year ago today?"  He said something sarcastic in reply of course.  I replied, "We got engaged!"  He said, "OMG Natalie, think about what all has happened in a year!  Think about where you are now and how great it is."  Indeed, how great it is.

Honestly, I can't imagine going backward.  My "check in" this morning was "happy."  JT's reply was, "You seem in a good place."  "Yes!", "Me too."  
It feels so refreshing to be able to claim that.  Every step I took during the last 365 days was a path to reach this stage of happiness and recovery in my life.  I also cannot imagine walking this journey without my favorite "Ginger" by my side.
