    good morning all.

    I not too bad. Meeting with work went well yesterday so feel much better about going back to work generally (the ex issue aside). Today will be my first full day back in the office so hopefully will be ok.

    Ex has stuck to his word and not called. I text yesterday to apologise for some of the things i said. I was not very ladylike or dignified in my approach and at the end of the day regardless of what he has done, what am i going to achieve by namecalling?

    The worst part for me is, when I wake up in the morning and forget that hes not here then you realise your on your own. Which is bad enough in itself, but then knowing hes with her is a 100 times worse.

    However, such is life.

    Am off for a shower, will to the bathroom while im in there! Then to get ready for my first day back at work!!!

    Love n hugs to all xx
