I've had such a long draining weekend. Friday was funeral, Saturday was some sort of birthday celebration and yesterday I just had it altogether. It might sound like a horrible weekend, but as a matter of fact all of the above had silver linings.
funerals are good, even though there are always loads of crying relatives wearing boring-looking clothes. They give closure. I also faced a childhood fear of mine. For some reason I've been afraid of the dead one's house. It started many years ago (I don't know why) and I tend to have nightmares about it still, but the day of the funeral I was standing in the garden and it felt okay.
birthday celebrations are always nice. It just took an awful long time for it to start - and having it the day after a funeral was not ideal. My family, Colm and I had dinner together and after that we watched "The princess and the frog" :)
fights suck, no matter how right you think you are. A tiresome weekend made me realise I'm not doing so well, it made me realise I'm slightly disappointed with the way things are turning out for me. But when it all comes to it I'm glad I finally told. I always feel a tremendous guilt after arguing and I always apologize, but it's good to clear the air once in a while.
... Today I'm back at work, wishing I was still in bed :)
Thankfully all the kind ladies at work know I'm going through a bit of a rough time. At least tonight I get to go out with them - we are gathering after work to make candle- and/or flower arrangements and have something to eat at the flower shop. I'm really looking forward to it. I go out way too rarely :)

I love the Princess and the Frog!
