It seems that I am not alone this morning in thinking that the weekend flew by, as this feeling is currently being complained about by more than half my colleagues.

I left work a little early on Friday to meet P, who was coming to James Street Station this time instead of me going over to Lime Street. I couldn’t wait to be out of the office and ( Read more... )

Though I did not wish to leave my bed this morning, it is actually quite a nice day out there. Cold but bright, and it’s nice to walk to the station on mornings like this. I needed the walk today too, as my legs are stiff from Saturday’s riding lesson! Given the abnormally long (3 week) gap since my last one, I’m surprised that I’m not suffering ( Read more... )

So once again another weekend has flown past and the long week at work stretches out in front of me. Once Monday is out of the way, the rest of the week usually begins to move along (except where you get a day, usually a Tuesday or Wednesday, determined to be awkward and drag its heels) so I’m say here trying to line up my work for the day so that ( Read more... )

I’m very down this morning, though really focussing on finding ways to bring myself up instead of wallowing in it.

I have 2 reasons for feeling blue, the first being that I found it really hard to let P get on to his train home yesterday and have been missing him terribly ever since he left. I have been trying to find new ways to cope with being ( Read more... )

I can’t believe that it’s already the 9th January and I’m back at work. It’s so hard to come to terms with the fact that the long break at P’s that I’d been looking forward to for so long is over. It was a lovely 10 days though and we did lots of things without feeling too constrained by a seeming ‘timetable’ of people to visit and places to go.

It was really peaceful coming into work this morning. There was practically no one at the station or in town as I walked to the office and there are only 4 of us in. The only sound is the typing from the secretary at the other end of the room. The phones have only rung twice in 3 hours. The only real drawback with how peaceful it is, is that so far ( Read more... )

It’s so cold today. I’m keeping myself permanently supplied with mugs of Peppermint Tea to keep my hands warm as much as to drink it! I had to do the same on the train home from London last night too, despite not really wanting to pay train prices for a hot drink, I was so cold I couldn’t hold my book so I had to buy something!

I had a lovely ( Read more... )

He is gone back to London now and I miss him.

I want it to stop hurting, but I don't know what to do.

I hope one day that Sunday won't mean 'goodbye'.

I can’t stop yawning today ( Read more... )

I've driven down this road so many times, yet tonight, feeling like I did as I drove, everything felt new and different and the journey was an effort...
