One More Day

Friday night birthday was quite nice. Didn’t meet a new ‘Him’, but then I wasn’t really looking.

The weather was so nice on Saturday so I spent most of it in my little bit of garden enjoying the heat from the sun and a little bit of reading. Well a big bit of reading by my standards. It’s not often I read a whole book in one ’sitting’.
The book was ‘for one more Day’ by Mitch Albom.

I couldn’t stop turning the pages.
When I got to the last page I cried buckets.

PS There were birthday cards when I got home on Friday. But not one from ‘Him’. I thought that was a bit strange. I would have sent him one.
Maybe I’m better off without him. (she said, unconvincingly)

So Not Over Him

Listened to Simply Red in the car on my way home from work last night.
There’s a song on it called ‘So Not Over You’.
Hadn’t really ever listened to the lyrics before.

Don’t know why I still slept on my side of the bed
The emptiness when you were gone kept ringing in my head
Told myself I really had to move along now
Stop regretting all the things I left unsaid, yeah yeah

So I tore up your letters
Took your picture off my wall
I deleted your number, it was too hard not to call
Felt a little better, told myself I’d be fine
Got to live for the good times up ahead, yeah yeah

‘Cos everywhere I go
There’s a love song that reminds me of you
And even though I knew I had to be strong
I was still not over you
‘Cos I still believe and I could see how there’s nothing left of you and me
That time is over
‘Cos I’m so not over you

I cried.
