Boozhoo niji,

I don't know how many people still blog here, but I have some thoughts to write down so here goes. I have had an awful lot of time to think lately.

When I had planned this whole thing, this move, it seemed like a good idea. I thought I had figured out everything. I did not think of what would happen if it all went wrong. I was concerned with success.
