Monday night playdate

Every Monday night I meet my best fried for a cup of tea. One hour and a half . That’s it. And that does it.

We are as busy as all of you but we know that that is not going to change anytime soon. We need to see each other, we speak the same language, respond to the same stimulus, get what the other one is saying without clarification of any kind, we make each other laugh-fall -off- the- chair hard.

Life is better with her in it, less lonely, less confusing, more hysterical, more wonderful.

You have more hour and a half ‘s than you think for the stuff that matters.

hard work

It is such hard, lonely and miserable work being divorced. Just Friday night I went out for dinner with not one but two handsome, charming, sexy  and funny men. One on each side of me all through dinner. I love symmetry.

the walking wounded


 

When your marriage falls apart you are a baby in the world again. You want to trust, you want to believe in all good things and love and magic and unicorns. Okay maybe not unicorns.

Because you lost so much there are certain things you hold onto with a vengeance- and one of them is the ability to love and trust again.How could you give your most treasured possession over to the failed marriage ? But it is shaky ground and so scary.

We are the walking wounded. Our hearts have been torn out and stomped on by life. We are  the tin men of the world.

But  slowly with time and carefully, but not too carefully,  our new hearts can be stronger for it.
