It's not you, it's me.
I think it's time.
I'm tired.
I don't want to see other people.
I don't want to break up with you.
But I need to breath again.
Walk in the sunshine.
Photograph the trees.
Make something.
And shake this awful illness that has taken hold of our house.
So I need to forget you for a few days.
And not feel guilty.
Not feel as if I'm letting myself down.
Make plans to start next week fresh and new.
Without the pressure of a lost week.
Because next week is the last week before school holidays.
And I've got big plans.
Plans that involve a dishwasher, and an egg carton, and maybe some glue.
And I can't focus on so plans if I'm worrying about you, sitting here all alone.
I still love you.
I'll be back.
Better than ever.
And I'll be missing you every day I'm away.
Enjoy some time away in the sunshine Cate! A break is always good - "see" you in a week or so.

Always nice when we realize we can step away and the world will keep spinning, no guilt needed. That's why I love Google Reader, when someone pops back up, their post is there to tell me :) Have a wonderful weekend and we'll see you very soon!
ReplyDeleteEnjoy your break, and really you should spend more time in the sunshine and less time with the dishwasher.
