It’s been almost a year since I touched this blog. Much has happened. Much has NOT happened.
Not happened? Alas, I have still yet to find that eccentric elusive relative who decides to leave me the family fortune upon their demise. Sadly, I still am confused where should I go for the next step of my career.
But, the family has moved into a new apartment and we have a new domestic help.
I am a notorious procrastinator. My SO loves to tell how it took 3 years for me to put up a mirror in our toilet…only to sell that apartment a year later. So although I’ve been promising my SO that we will buy a new place and we will move out of my parent’s house, the truth is, I would have probably taken some time to finally do it.
I also know now God has a very good sense of humor. Did I mention that when my SO and I first married, she thought that it would be wonderful to have twins. Sooo…we had twins. About a year ago, she started talking about having another baby… she was hoping for a boy as well. Guess what? Approximately 9 months ago, whilst I was driving home from work, she calls and tells me that she has something serious to talk to me about.
Imagine my shock when she shows me a positive pregnancy test. I made her double check the expiry date of the kit and then proceeded to have a very stiff drink. And it’s a boy.
Of course we had all the anxieties associated with having a baby at a mature age. She had to undergo numerous scans and blood tests. We’ve had to prepare the twins that they are going to have a new addition to our family. AND, I had to finally go and buy a place of our own.
Today, she’s going to deliver. Hopefully, it will be smooth and uneventful. But whatever happens, life for me, for us, for the family, will change once again.
