Another Thursday morning and another school albeit to take my boy to the holiday club which he has to attend during the school holidays-poor lad. He awoke in good time and got his Netflix fix before we set off, even adding a morning shower to the proceedings. He had a shower last night too because he had some kind of splinter in his thumb which he refused to let me near until I pinned him down. We hoped the wrinkling of his skin may help remove the splinter and it actually appeared to work. Either that or it is now fully buried in his thumb, it's difficult to say.
I had a dream last night where my ex wife berated me for being a shit partner and told me of a list of all my failures. I say 'dream', it could well have been a memory from our life together. I awoke feeling hurt and defensive.
I am surprised by how much baggage I have still to carry from that last relationship. It's put me off relationships for life it seems. I think I'm quite a nice chap really but womankind seem to cause complications.
Another weekend looms large over my thoughts. More good memories will be created and hearty laughs with my son. Best of friends.
This is the month of the longest day (daylight wise) of the year and darkness will return to our land. So I hope to be outside much of this weekend tending to my stepsons feelings. He's been having a difficult teenage phase which is out of character for him really but totally natural as he goes from boy to.... Boy who thinks he's a man. Hell I'm 38 and I haven't reached man hood yet.
Tonight's entertainment includes me watching 'Im Still Here' and 'Apartment 1303' and maybe reading some more Lee Child 'Killing Floor'.
I find my pleasures where I can.
The summer sun continues outside and doesn't care who it shines on. It's up to us to grab it while we can.
Hence my staying in and watching two films. Ha ha
Once you've seen the sun.. You've finished seeing it haven't you?
Ps. Don't stare at the sun or it'll burn your eyes out.
