What goes on in your mind?"


Yesterday I was in floods of tears - twice!

I dropped Billie off at her house for the last time before she goes to Florida. I of course cried my eyes out, what an embarrassing Father I must be!
Later I watched the final episode of 'The Pacific'. It hadn't affected me as much as it's predecessor (Band of Brothers) but as the final scene with the real fellas and the actors portraying them rolled by, I found myself welling up again!
It's going to be a lonely few days until I go back to work next week. But in fact I feel a little better. I really can't explain why, nothing much has changed, at least not for the better!
But I felt so desperate last week , nearly as low as I've ever felt, that any upside is easy to see.

I'm resolving to find some kind interest outside of this house, of course I've said this many times before...

Amusingly Billie rang me earlier and asked for a lift home (as she was feeling lazy, I imagine) she'd been with her friends saying goodbye, obviously I hadn't expected to see her today, but I imagine to keep my emotions in check, mostly!
