random thoughts

Yesterday whilst driving back home from work for some reason I thought of a fellow blogger. Her daughter is the same age as my niece and wondered if they have the same birth day. Than I remebered that Gregory will have his lucky birthday on the 21st just like mine was and from there wondered how he'd spend that day or if we'd do a party or if I'll live long enough to see it....and than I realised that it was better to keep it simple as I was doing up till then and think only of the present or possibly the very near future.

Started reading a book about Paganism cos one of the blogs I enjoy following is a pagan and in reality I wasn't quite sure what that meant and since it interested me I got this book A woman's guide to the Earth Tradition by Vivianne Crowley. I haven't read more than a dozen pages but it seems I am more a pagan than a Roman Catholic....I wonder where this book will lead me in my ongoing journey called life but seems an interesting twist will follow :)

It seems that unconsciously I have made a sleeping habit for Gregory. Between 8 and 830 pm, we go into bed switch off the lights and he goes down to sleep (most of the time holding on to my booby ha!). At this point I switch the lights back on and read for a little while....but I like this habit and he seems to like it to. He knows that lights off means bed time and he settles down quickly to sleep.

Usually I complain a lot during Summer that every other day I hear firework bombs going of from the different feasts that are happening on the island. This year they either reduced them a lot or else I was too distracted with Gregory to hear them!

This morning I cried coz my car tyres needed to be pumped which resulted in me being half hour late at work and that results in half hour less with Gregory since I have to stay on....never thought I'd cry for such a thing which doesn't seem too bad! But made me realise that by the end of the month I have to hand in my notice or I'll go bonkers.

Oh I so hope you get to stay home with him!!! Will pray some more to the higher powers. Take your deep breaths my friend, this hard time too shall pass of being away from Greg.

XOXO
