So, you might ask, what is it like living somewhere where you are suddenly anonymous?
To be honest? Refreshing. I still miss my friends and some of the comfort of familiarity, however, being out of my comfort zone is proving to be a growth experience. Confidence I didn't even know I had lost, is growing.
Two years ago tomorrow I almost died. After twelve months of hell I got back to work, (with the help of family, friends and three people, Sue, Stephanie and my doctor Mark). Two years ago I didn't know I had a future, let alone one that had me moving myself and my 18yr old to a major city, re-starting a career and thinking about my post-grad study program.
Canberra is a very interesting place to live. Just passing parliament house on the way into the city still has me in awe. I hope I never loose that.
The weather is crisp, especially this time of year. I can knit as much as I want and I will get to wear what I produce. The farmers market is huge and I am starting to network amongst the producers.
M and I are going to hit the garage sales and the museum this long weekend and see what we can find for the house.
Will Keep you posted,
Kez.

Wow, what a journey you've had in the past two years. Glad you're still here!
It's tough making a new start from scratch ... but yes, I know that feeling of anonymity, and while it can be lonely at times, it's also kinda nice too.
I still get a blast from driving past Parly House :)
Look forward to meeting you sometime - I have a 17 year old daughter who knits and spins ...
