Daily Rant 2

Funny how days never always turn out the way you think. Set off this morning with that same old feeling that I couldn't wait to be coming home in the opposite direction a.s.a.p. Had 7 appointments planned, all mapped out on a sensible route, only for my 1st appointment to change the venue to 15 miles away without telling me ! My second appointment cancelled their account, 3rd appointment was late and bought but hardly broke the bank, had to postpone the 4th one due to me being made late, 5th appointment was a joy to deal with and they bought, 6th appointment was more of the same and the 7th postponed due to the late running of my day but was happy to do so and never got arsey. Contact with the Boss was minimal and I ended up feeling like I'd had a good day. Finished at a reasonable time too. Never got to stop all day tho' and didn't eat at all so now I have a rotten headache.

Sofia took her very first proper step today. Shame that I wasn't here to see it but Jackie says it was a real moment !

Got a nice surprise in the post too. Seems the electric company owe me £33 and they sent me a cheque. Every penny helps.

One of my clients today was telling me about their daughter. 15 months old and suffering from mild cerebral palsy. The little girl was such a lovely kid too, not really any visible signs. Apparantly she wasn't breathing when she was born, but was quickly revived. They seem to think that it was this that caused the palsy.
It just made me think how lucky I am that Sofia is perfect and healthy in every way but made me worry again about the new baby and hope that everything is ok again.

I lost my sister when I was 7. She was almost 4 when she died from hepatitis and I know the pain of losing a child all too well. I panicked like crazy when my other sister, Gemma, reached Nadia's age when she passed away, frightened that it would happen again. These feelings returned when I became a father and I now constantly worry that my angels will be snatched away from me, although I know this is highly unlikely. I guess this is just what it's like being a parent.

Anyway, another dull day over with 3 more to go before pay day and a nice Bank Holiday weekend.
