I have looked forward to today for a while! Denise has gone to Perth to see the messiah which gave me a chance to do some Christmas shopping and meet Jessie for some girly clothes shopping and a light lunch which turned out to be a very enjoyable visit to Alforno and lunch with two of Jessie’s friends which was lovely, nice people who must be thinking “what is going on here” but didn’t say anything. Jessie mentioned that she had bought something for me and but wanted me to open it at home with her so we arranged to meet at ours a little later and she gave me the most beautiful dress, sadly it was a 14 and didn’t fit but it was amazing, reds purples, black and white, quite floral and a lovely cut so I look forward to trying the 16 on sometime this week, can’t wait!. Jessie and I had a real heart to heart, she talked about Nick and how she is hurting but knows it’s the right decision to stay parted, we talked about my feelings about my parents and how if I’m not careful it will turn to a bitterness which will not be good for me. Considering there is over 30 years between us we have a real connection and both bared our hearts today, I love her dearly in a sort of protective way, she is so tactile and generous with her love for me, it’s very special!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
