Stop the world I want to get off!!

It’s a boy!!! Adrian Ruck has made his appearance into the world a whole 6 weeks early. He’s in intensive care, but he’s a little fighter and the hospital staff are confident that he’ll soon be a hearty, healthy, monster just like his older brother.

It’s been two weeks of hell for his mother though, she’s had to spend most of it on her back in the hospital being poked and prodded with everything and anything.

I had to cancel my holiday to England, and it’s been a hectic nightmare of running between the hospital and babysitting the slightly traumatized little guy at home. Now that it’s almost over I start to wonder what the next big drama that turns my life upside-down will be?

I’m trying to remember a time when I didn’t have some sort of pressure and stress dragging me down over the last three years, and I’m not coming up with any. It’s been a non stop roller coaster ride for years now and I think I really really want to get off, just for a little while.

On the writing front, I’m doing the best I can, I barely find the time to read, so if and when I do write it’s notes in longhand written on anything I can find. Sadly I seem to have been caught in yet another drama there thanks to which I’m now short another friend. And this time I really have done nothing to deserve being de-friended, and since I did nothing to cause it there is nothing I can do about it either. But it does make me re-think past decisions I made that made me loose friends and wonder if I could have handled things differently back then.

Maybe….

Anyway here is a toast to a new Ruck, may he be as strong as his name and do his forebears proud!!
