Waiting it out

I returned to work this week full of excitement at moving my flights home earlier, at getting home in time for the weekend, at escaping Singapore and the miserable hole that I am worried I will sink into when Nick is already home this week and I am left alone without anyone to play with or to comfort me should comforting be needed. All I was really thinking about was avoiding another week last last week, of waiting and helplessness. 

            Sadly, changes that would have cost me $400 last week were up to $800 this week, and as that’s almost as much as the cost of the flights in the first place, I just can’t justify it.

            So I’ll just have to wait it out and hope that the mentally busy times at work calm down, that life doesn’t look quite so shite all the time, and that the low calorie happy crumble will be enough to see me through to next Wednesday evening.
