To ease my mind

Sep 05, 2007 20:38

I'm writing this letter here, because I don't want to trouble you while you've traveling. I know you've having a great time, and I don't want you to worry needlessly.


"D,

Today has been one of those days. Not a particularly bad one that could really use some help, but one of those days where it really could have been better. I woke up groggy and sore, even with the early bedtime I set myself yesterday. My knee is acting up from walking the dogs, though Sunny would still rather have more walking!!! I was dragging Chance along by the golf course as it was... During the course of the day all kinds of wonderful things developed. By lunch I was feeling bloated and crampy with a headache looming on the horizon. I've been getting headaches more and more from work- dealing with both the bugs and the form entry might be responsible. I find that my eyes get tired and sore, I need to rest them. I guess I do need to get that eye exam.

I came home after work, and thought about how wonderful it would be if you were there. We'd hug, and I'd complain for a little while before saying I was being silly and stop. I'd make dinner, and have an actual dinner because I just can't seem to cook for myself. We'd snuggle down on the couch, and all those little things would go away. The physical discomfort, the frustration from work, the worry about the end of the contract, it would all seem unimportant. I would lie on the couch with you and breathe you in. I'd probably make a few cracks about you lightening up a little, and eventually we'd head to bed.

But instead I need to get back to the White's, the dogs are still waiting for their dinner and I haven't even thought of mine yet. I guess there's not much point at 9pm. Today has just been one of those days where your importance in my life becomes more obvious to me.

I miss you. I hope you're having a wonderful experience in the Maritimes.

Hana"
