Uncertain times

Yesterday I just had to get out of the house. Out of the way of my husband and my kids, I love them dearly but sometimes I need just a little bit of space. The hubster has been poorly for the last few months (actually there has rarely been a time in the 4 1/2 yrs we've been together that he's been fit and healthy) this time it's his gallbladder and it needs removing. Tuesday should have been the day for this but a few hours before he was due in, the hospital called to cancel due to lack of a bed. GREAT disappointment ensued! The good news is that after originally being told it would be another 6 weeks before they could have him in, he's now been given the 23rd October.  Yay!! This is only 6 days before my middle and youngest daughters birthdays though so I hope and pray the operation goes to plan.
So that being my biggest issue at the moment as well as the security of my job being in the balance after Christmas and the fact that Mary, Mae & Ava hasn't even managed to get started after a year I've been feeling rather wobbly and sorry for myself.

And then I speak with 2 friends, 2 very special women that at the moment are both going through their own kind of hell, and my heart feels so very heavy for both of them. I so wish that I could help them. (Know that if I can, I will, so please ask)
I hope they both find the strength and clarity they need to get through these tough times and can make decisions that are right for them and their families. 

This morning my worries seem a lot easier to deal with than they did yesterday morning. I believe everything happens for a reason even if we can't see what that reason is.
