"Dear "______,"

Sorry I didn't write last year as I was really down.  I was going through another divorce.  "___" kicked me out of the new house we built.  I didn't go back.  I found out too late that "___" is a co-dependent person.  I lived in fear for 1.5 years.  I am much happier now back at the shop with my dog.  I'm getting used to being by myself.

I'm building up a camper van from a large Dodge van.  I will take it to Arizona this February and tow my motorcycle on a trailer.  Going to take a month off.

Next year maybe three!!"
