This week has been totally shocking and at the same time enjoyable. In the family there have been two people have new children, one girl and one boy, and another has been diagnosed with cancer. Although the latter is sad news and all of us in the family and extended family will support Steve, the two new babies are really positive in a week that has been really busy for me.
There was also an interesting story in the local paper that seemed to get my attention. It was about a local volunteer group who help the sick and elderly who want volunteers to help fund raising and so I think I will be applying to join them over the next week.
We also had an accident in the car, so I had to go to hospital with a slight cut to the head, nothing major at all, but you just never know. I was driving and skidded a little on some wet leaves, they were scattered all over the road and were soaked in water, we eventually ended up banging into a fence, which wasn’t exactly great; and the cut on the head meant my head was hurting for days.
All in all, some good news and some very bad news, just have to wait for the coming of the end of 2008 to see what is around the corner for next year. Hopefully it will be a much better year than it has been for 2008.
