State of the knitter...

I've barely updated here at all this summer. I've barely done any knitting at all this summer. I've barely had time to think about knitting related things at all this summer.

This will all hopefully change by fall, when we get settled into our new lives.

I normally don't post personal things here in my knitting blog (I tend to save the personal stuff for my livejournal, where I can monitor who reads my posts), but I am making an exception because this will explain why there's been very little knitting or thinking about knitting going on around here.

Two years ago my ex (high-school sweetheart) and I started writing to each other and finally not quite two months ago we stopped lying to ourselves about how we felt about each other still after all these years. We got together for lunch one Saturday in early June, and that was when I knew for sure that he was the one.

Mind you, there's a bit of a complication to this, in that I seem to be married. But I haven't been truly happy in a very long time, and I finally realized why. And I am finally doing something about it, whereas before I never thought I'd be able to.

Come the end of August, the girls and I are relocating to the state capital, where we will be living with Christian, whom I have loved for going on 20 years now. We both had our failed relationships over the years, and we both have baggage from these relationships, but we are both finally ready to do what we intended to do all those years ago, and that is to live happily ever after. Together.
