That somehow this black night feels warmer for the spark

So, I hear there's a drawing of me floating around that involves Pierre and Deirdre forcibly removing my head from my arse using my cane?

That's brilliant.

Though thank you for not actually trying that... Can I see the drawing? I'll trade you these pictures of Lydia attacking me after dressing me in godawful clothing. Don't ask where the clothing came from, she found it in the storage space. I shudder to think who purchased it.

Lydia kicks hard

Never ask Lydia if she's kissed Dylan

She's a feisty one. My girls are both home, by the way, and better for it. Lydia's going to continue taking riding lessons and Anna didn't bite me so let's just call it good.

Thomas is making me say this here, though I have to admit, I didn't put up much of an argument. I have a lot to apologise for, and believe me I plan on doing so. That being said, I think I've worked through the main issues at hand and I'll deal with the rest as they come.

My girls just arrived home, but they're far too tired to see anyone. I'll be seeing them tomorrow. Which is probably for the best, considering a certain massive hangover that won't just leave me alone.

Thank you to every single one of you, not only for not giving up on me, but also for being amazing incredible people and supporting each other through everything. I love you.

Thomas also says to say he loves you all as well, and that he's most likely leaving tonight, but he'll see you all sometime in the not to distant future. Don't let that worry you! He says he's sure to visit again.

I hope I see a lot of everyone soon. Forced isolation does tend to make one lonely and wanting company.

My last brace is coming off tomorrow morning, and then you can all laugh gleefully at me as I hobble about. My physical therapist says it is best if I walk as much as I can even though it is incredibly painful. It's better to be in pain now than to lose the ability to walk. I very much agree with that statement!

I haven't walked anywhere in a very long time. It will be nice to do so.
