Recalled To Life

I've broken free of the Bastille, where I was imprisoned in a facade marriage. I was buried for 13 years in self-doubt and loneliness. And of course, I spent years numbing those feelings standing in the pantry. . . but not anymore. That part of my life has finally come to an end. It's time to start living again.

About Me

Doc Manette
I'm a 45 year old, recently divorced, former stay-at-home-mom, attempting to re-enter the work force during a recession (oh joy). For 2 1/2 years, I diet blogged under another 'nom de guerre', but I'm feeling rebirthed and alive these days, so thought a new blog and war name were much needed. Just call me Doc Manette after a character in one of my favorite books "A Tale of Two Cities".
