Here are my girls on November 5, 2009, almost a full year ago. This photo and video was taken just right before I spoke with the person who told me something that changed my life and changed my relationship with a network of people. I'm glad about what I learned. I'm glad about the pain and hurt that I experienced. I'm glad the betrayals provided me the opportunity to change my life and take some risks and make things better for myself. I can barely remember these days right before the Great Fall. But I sure remember the days immediately after, as I prepared to up and out.
