Thanks so much to all of you for your kind replies!

Inky – I know you are right. I will feel so much better once I take forward action.

Matty – I appreciate your response so much. You are so right. It is an identity issue. I will try this exercise and use that for reflections 🙂 It feels good to have just a few things that my ex and I didn’t share and I do want to have some more things that are just mine. And Elle, yoga practice makes me feel amazing and has me realizing that while we practiced together all the time, it had really become my own thing without me even realizing it until I was doing it alone. I know exactly what you are saying about the 3 PM start too, I also slip into zen mode and it’s just great 🙂

I already feel much better putting out my thoughts into writing! It’s very hard for me to bring myself to write/journal, and when I do it doesn’t feel honest, but all the words came out in this post and it feels so relieving. Luckily today is unseasonably warm and sunny where I am and it’s a good day to try to have a fresh perspective.

Thank you all xoxo
