We are fine.
We are more than fine; we are happy.
That's not to say all of the changes we have gone through the last few months haven't been difficult and scary and enormously stressful.
They have been all of those things. But, for the most part, it's all good.
I had forgotten how beautiful it is in Los Angeles.
I had forgotten that on previous visits I had felt such love and affinity for her wild canyons and roaring surf and towering palms.
I had forgotten, also, how very alive a career challenge can make me feel and how exploring a new city has always sent a thrill through my bones.
I still haven't quite figured out what I will do with this blog. I do know I will not, cannot, maintain it as a forum for discussion and rumination as I have in the past, but I am reluctant to sever a means for far-flung relatives (who haven't mastered Facebook) to keep in touch.
I have been humbled by your lovely words and well wishes over the last few months. Thanks again and please know that we are fine.
We are more than fine; we are happy.
