I'm starting this new LJ because I've had my old one since November of 2004. A lot has changed since then, including the reason that I got an LJ in the first place. Usually, I am all for keeping memories together - for instance, I will probably never change my Xanga. I hope. But in this case, there are attachments to things that I, for now, want nothing to do with. People that it is much too painful to be in contact with. I don't want to sever for good, so un-friending isn't the plan. Just - building a different community, and leaving the other one in the event that it becomes not so painful to return.
That'[s all for now, I guess. Currently in CT, loving on my niece and reading Anne Lamott's latest book.
