Thank you for telling me about Saturday. I know it wasn't easy to write that part. And I want you to know something important: it's okay. Truly. The fact that you even got ready, that you were this close to going... that's not nothing. That's you showing up for yourself, even if you didn't walk out the door. Please be kind to yourself about it. You're doing just fine.

One of the few things that makes me happy this year.

Yay, my perseverance is paying off!
