Nearly a month

I don't know which is worse. The fact that a whole month has gone by and I haven't managed to write anything in this blog. Or the fact that a whole month has gone by and nothing notable in my life has happened in my life to warrant me writing anything in my blog!

My mate Eden finally popped the question to his girlfriend of 12 months (?). Is that all? Only 12 months. They have "known" each other previous, but I think have only officially been together for about 12 months. I could be wrong on the time frames, so don't quote me.

Anyway, it's good news. And they seem very happy together, which is a good start.

Which just leaves Brett. He's already said he's feeling the pressure. I don't envy his situation though. He wants to get married and move into a new house at the same time. That will take some planning, and a decent wad of cash. Organising a wedding is stressful enough, without the added pressure of moving into a new house! But if that's what he wants to do, good luck to him. And I'll try and help in anyway I can.

It's great to see mates getting married. Having known Eden since we were in primary school, Graham since we were 13/14, and Brett since I was about 16, it's pretty cool to watch life events happening.

Speaking of life events: my little girl just keeps on growing. 7 months (coming up to 8) now. Healthy as can be. Although she did have a bug the other week which knocked her for six. Went for about 5 days, up and down. Things were coming out both ends. Not pretty. Poor little thing was really sick and lost a lot of weight. Her smile still hung in there though. She was trying to be happy and healthy but the bug kept pulling her down. Both Linda and I got it. But we only had it for about a day and a bit. We felt like rubbish after only that short period of time, but Sarah had it for much longer, so I can only imagine how she must have felt.

All good know though. Back to her normal self. Although she has started waking up in the night since she got over the bug. We think it's a combination of her normal pattern being out of whack and her little body trying to catch up on about a week of not really eating anything. The night before last she slept through, and last night she only woke up once. So we feel we may be seeing some light at the end of the tunnel.

A new touch rugby season is starting up soon. End of October I think. This year I'm actually going to try and get fit to some degree so that I limit my liability risk on the field. Maybe. Anyway, I'll let you know how that goes.

Later.
