Well it's been a month. Padraic and I have been busy with our normal schedules and then everything that happened with Melisande. I feel bad for Padraic, he's just concerned and everyone acts like he's just waiting go jump her and he's not. The only person Padraic is going to shag is me and that will be once I get home, let's see if I make it to the bedroom because last nig
Anyway, it was our anniversary too and we had a good night. We went round to the pub and then went tenpin bowling and no one wants or needs to know what we did next. It's been a good weekend, except he lost to Portree, which was not brilliant at all, but everything else was alright.
I'm glad that Padraic is with me. I never asked him to give up his family for me, I never expected him to. I was happy with how we were but then the war ended and well. I love Padraic and I trust him more than any other person on the planet. I'm very lucky to have him and he makes me feel like I think a husband should. Our relationship has always been built on trust. Okay, that's a lie, at first it was built on shagging, but then I trusted him not to fuck around with anyone else.
I feel like a very lucky girl. I wish everyone could be as happy as I am.
My brothers seem like they're up to their usual shit.
My hand to god if Tess fucks it up with Herman now that things are nice and settled, I will strangle her myself
Howard's ex-girlfriend turned out to be a tramp. That's not a surprise. All his ex-girlfriends turn out to be tramps. Padraic says
I don't know what is actually going on with Melisande and neither does Padraic. They had a long drawn out conversation one night and it didn't go how Padraic wanted it to go or how I wanted it to go. She's still dating a Marchbanks, I know I shouldn't have an opinion on it because I did the same thing, but Padraic's different and if he says she can do better, then she can do better and I won't say anything different.
And I did not run into Padraic's sister today. That's a good thing.
I hope everyone else had an alright weekend, we did.
