Proper catchup

clockworkpixelIt seems like folks restarting their journals have been making a catch-up post. So here is the shortest possible version of my life since I last usefully journaled in 2011.
Still in Rhode Island. In 2012 I bought a pre-1895 Italianate house, which has been and continues to a be a major restoration project.
I ended things with auntiemame67 in late 2014, and she moved out. Afterwards I came to realize just how messed up that relationship was, and that she was being manipulative and emotionally abusive in ways I hadn't realized at the time. Ending things allowed me to re-connect with a lot of friends who had avoided me so they wouldn't have to be around her.
In early 2015 one of those friends (I will come up with a nickname for them later.) suggested we hook up. I agreed and that quickly led to us dating. Since then it has flowered into an amazing relationship built on radical honesty and openess and has let both of us be the people we want to be while supporting and cheering the other to do the same. We also click on so many levels it is insane. There is lots of cute and shmoop here is what I am saying.
We don't live together for logistical reasons, but spend the weekends together basically every week.
About 1.5 years ago the FuzzHerder and I got involved in a way that was supposed to be very causal, but has grown into a serious dating relationship. We seems to perfectly slot into the category of "secondary" in each other's lives. While I have been poly all my dating life, it is a new experience being in love with two people at once. But so far it has been great.
I am finally doing real concrete work on dealing with my mental health issues, and that has been showing slow but real dividends.
