this is a bit of a relief, I have to say but then again TGD did say that within a few weeks things would be virtually back to normal
I still have huge and unpredictable blanks tho for example M-T is wearing a dress, that apparently I bought her on a shopping trip we went on a while back; she seems very nonchalant about the fact I don't remember various things, perhaps she just accepts it because she knows I have been ill; I wish I could
the best thing is that the tunes have returned! this morning a chord I heard had me humming first "Light My Fire" by The Doors and then, for some reason, I segued into "Drive My Car" by The Beatles. . .
. . .beep-beep'm beep-beep yeah!
.
apart from that, I'm exhausted

today I was allowed to have all three children round at the apartment at once - I cooked them Sunday lunch: roast chicken with a bacon lattice, sausages and roast onions, roast potatoes, gravy, asparagus carrots and roasted peppers, and - just for fun, because they like them - Yorkshire puddings, even tho it was chicken not beef; strawberries (for those who like strawberries) and ice-cream for pudding
I know I usually cook a fairly decent roast dinner and - despite the heat - it was the right thing to serve them as it made them feel at home and kind of back to normal again (even tho for the last year it's been XCH cooking the Sunday roast for them, here)
they stayed all afternoon and the usual bickering and nit-picking ensued, but it didn't grate me and I managed to turn some of the unpleasantness around into humour and then laughed with them
but, dear reader, I feel so alone
..
and I know it's ok to feel exhausted and alone,
and only to be in the moment,
and not to worry about The Future,
but it's the emptiness that gets me;
I've spent the day drawing, people watching, cooking, talking and listening,
I've been out and I have something nice to look forward to this evening - it's just. . .
