Island Life

Well its actually been a lovely day on the rock today. The suns been shining and its been pretty windy but thats the best kind of day eh? Will have to make a trip up to the big city soon to sign a petition FOR the sunday sailings. I'm sure that will rock another few boats!! It will be just like the sunday flights though. Nobody even notices anymore. I personally don't see what all the fuss is about - if you don't want to use it don't. Whats so difficult about that? No doubt as well the usual hypocrites will use the service once its up and running (hopefully), all the 'good' living folk - many of whom will smile at you on the sunday, stab you in the back first thing monday! There are very few true christians anymore. If there was there wouldn't be such a lack of freedom of choice on this island. I thought one of the key elements was something along the lines of he who is without sin can cast the first stone, or something to that effect. Anyway I have completely veered off track I wasn't meaning to start some religious debate! Each to their own if you ask me.
Had to explain to my wee girl yesterday about death - man that was a difficult conversation to have with a two year old. Especially a very on the ball two year old. She seemed to take it on board though, she had a wee cry but told me she doesn't want to tell me about it just now. Nobody tells you when you have kids how heartbreaking it is to see your kids suffer at all. When you can't take away their pain - when you can no longer shield them from the big bad world. You sometimes wish you could just wrap them up from all the bad stuff. Guess thats life though. She is having a few days up with her grandparents in the big city so hopefully that will cheer her up a wee bit and then we will pick her up once the funeral is over and done with. We will actually be completely childless tomorrow - now that will be strange - no doubt we will be twiddling our thumbs before long!!
Hopefully the weather will be as good tomorrow as it was today. Don't think its on the cards though. Never mind can't be good all the time, it would pobably get boring if it was good weather all the time. Before long we'd be begging fo rain - well maybe not!!
Anyway must go just now try and get the grumpy wee man to go back to sleep. These horrible teeth are still giving him a right hard time, poor wee soul! Hope you all have a good weekend folks
