*Long walk – 1st January 1999

I went for a walk yesterday after work – down in the National Park – you remember where we went past Whale Rock – well I jogged to about as far as we went – ‘member we went up to that lookout – and then kept going and going until there’s a cycle track that goes up to the end of Vimiera Road – I cut off the track there and went into the bush following some animal tracks and back up from the creek – I ended up at the back of some houses and had to fight pretty hard through some thick bush for a while – woulda looked pretty crazy – I got cut up on the arm a bit too – and I’m dead knackered after that too – at least it was a little easier to get to sleep last night – but still damned hot and sticky.

I’m still thinking of you a lot and that keeps me awake too. I wonder what will happen to us when you return and I go through all the bad things that could happen – by bad I mean like we split up or something – I don’t know why I have these doubts. I wonder if you would prefer to be without me – if life would be easier for you that way. I don’t know how I would go if we split – it would be very sad for me. I know I would want to be friends with you but know that would be hard initially too. Anyway, you see, why am I thinking these things….why am I in doubt? I think because I need to hear some reassurance from you – it’s been hard to not be able to talk to you every day like we normally do.

Christmas has been a non-event for me too. I was looking forward to having some time to myself while you were away but now I know that I need people to keep me occupied (that sounds pretty bad put like that!) to divert my attention from my introverted self. I used to be very extroverted you know – what happened? I don’t know. It’s weird. where did all this self-doubt come from?

Babe, this has just been another get it off my chest session – trying to figure things out. Still haven’t got anywhere! Anyway, I hope that when you are reading this that you are close enough to me to come and give me a supportive hug and kiss and say something like “I understand’ – even if you don’t!!
Have you seen Jackie Chan yet?

I hope yr feeling better today. My ulcer is getting worse – more red and painful. I hope yrs are improving. HJ is such a cutey sweetheart – he looks georgeous, half asleep and pondering. Bronwyn and I were talking to him about the vegetables he likes to eat and he just had this cute smile on his face as he was remembering the taste of those nice vegies!! Please stay calm today – don’t stress too much. Will you have time to see me tonight? Maybe not – with yr ass. due on Friday hey. But i hope i get to see you. Would you do me the honour of escorting me on a trip to Lane Cove National Park on Sunday for a boat ride – canoeing or whatever? Will occupy as little of your time as you wish or as much as you can afford. Did I tell you how beautiful you are?
