Getting up early

Getting up early, that's what I did today, 0145, why you may ask, I can't really explain it but I had to go to the toilet and then I knew that I shouldn't go back to bed so I stayed up, lit the fire, drank my coffee and looked for any updates on my mams condition, which I explained in yesterday's blog. It was as if somehow I knew that I shouldn't go back to bed, it was just a feeling I had, a bit weird but that's what happened and why I'm writing so early. Today is traveling day, car to the airport, airplane to London, bus to Cardiff Wales, train to my parents home and what was once my home arriving about 2300hrs tonight. My brother arrived yesterday from his job abroad and went straight to see my mam who is still not well and tomorrow I'll go to see her. When I woke up it was a very strange feeling that I was experiencing perhaps because of the traveling, leaving my family behind or something else, Im not really sure, I can put it into words but my family will say I'm stupid to think what I'm thinking now. The weekend went ok as it usually does bbq, but all the time my mobile was in my pocket to hear any updates from the family group about my mams condition, sorting out last minute arrangements and packing so that I will be ready for today. The last time I was back home in Wales was for my brother in laws funeral last year, perhaps that had something to do with the strange feeling or maybe it's because of the journey ahead or is it something that I can't write about, my family says that I'm a pessimist but what is real and happening right now makes me feel that way, of course I hope my mam pulls through but I'm not a doctor so all day today while I'm on the way home I'll be watching for updates as to my mams condition and hoping and praying that she will pull through. Well it's just a case of waiting now and letting my mind wonder as to be honest always does but I don't think that's a bad thing. People always have strange feelings about one thing or another and I hope people can understand what I'm writing about now, well that's all for today as it won't be long until I get underway so I hope to write again tomorrow, thanks for reading and perhaps sharing with a friend or someone, perhaps there is someone that feels the same way as I do right now. Thank you.

Luck

Luck, do you believe in it, like finding a four leaf clover, a bird shiting on you, is that going to bring you luck or do you just make your own luck? Some people have so called luck by winning the lottery, winning on online gambling or winning on the stock market, are these all attributed to luck, good question but if you think about it everything that you bet on is controlled by a computer or little balls spinning around in a plastic globe, you win, is that really luck? How do you define what luck really is, I'm not sure but I think you make your own luck. For instance I made my own luck by going to a cafe and meeting my wife who worked there, I made my own luck during the war in Croatia by doing what I had been taught and stayed alive, my wife and I were lucky enough to have three children when there are other married people who can't have children, are those examples of luck or destiny? In a way you could say that it was my destiny to get married not just luck, which is it ...

T+L

Well at long last it seems that there may be a break in our heatwave, last night after the temperature hitting a huge 40 degrees it started to thunder and lightning but did the heavens open for rain to fall, no only a few spots, I could probably drink more water than fell from the sky, at least it's a little cooler 19 and set to rise to a reasonable 35 degrees which is a bit more bearable. It's Sunday the end of the weekend and again it seems that my wife and I will be on our own, my youngest daughter and her fiance are going here and there to visit his family and I'm not sure if my eldest daughter will be here so it's going to be a weird Sunday but peaceful. It's going well for Ukraine from looking at all the media as Ukraine is still taking over more of russia and blowing up bridges so the idiot can't resupply his troops and he is also bombing his own country with missiles, what a shame the ordinary people who so called voted for the puppet master are having t...

Terrible

Isn't it just terrible to see once again ordinary people being targeted by bombs and mortars and being once again driven from their homes. The orders obviously coming from the top which of course means non other than the war monger himself, Putin and the Ukrainians can't do a thing to stop it except helping with the evacuation of the elderly and sick from the border towns with Russia. It is a familiar site for me after witnessing it myself here in Croatia in 1991, so I know how those people feel being driven from their homes and normal lives not knowing wheater they will return or not by a superior force intent on carrying out their orders by a lunatic dictator. Here in Croatia after so many years people are back in their homes, rebuilt and the villages, towns and cities are back to normal, Croatia has come back from the brink of destruction to become a stronger and better country, all because of the heart and will of the people. There is a huge question mark over wheater the U...
