A new star in heaven...

Hey everyone,

Well this is going to make 3 days in a row. Which I believe is the longest I have ever kept a blog for. The last one was not so successful.

Had another one of those days at work where it just ain't worth it. I also agreed to work on Saturday...again! However, there is a method to my madness. I have a final interview for the job of my dreams. So fingers crossed.

Not much to report on the wedding today, except for the fact that a friend who was round for some drinks tonight did not know we had set a date. I feel kind of bad about it.

Been having a really difficult time today, I got a phone call from my dad last night telling me that a close family friend had died. She used to help my parents by looking after me and my brother when we were younger. I hadn't seen her in a few years, but I had sent her cards wishing her well. Unfortunately at 21:35 on the 26th of April 2010 she lost her battle with cancer. I will miss her...

I have been very fortunate in that I have not had to deal with death too often in my life. I lost one of my grand parents before I was born and two when I was too young to really understand.

The first time it ever hit me was when my gran died when I was 19. I was devastated, as were my family. Now for the second time in my life I am dealing with death, and it does not get any easier. I am glad it doesn't. Each tear is a reminder of how much people meant to you, and you are better for having had them in your lives. I am not a religious person, but I have to believe that they go on to a better place.

Anyway, I don't really feel much like typing any more so I am going to call it a night.

Stephen out.
