Such a long time…

It’s such a long time since I posted to this blog – before Easter, I believe.

Everything went pear-shaped in the Scott household on Easter day (yes, I know. perfect timing for a priest!) and is only just returning to normal.

After a hectic Holy Week, culminating in a service of over two hours at the Cathedral (most of which was standing) on Easter Eve, Ian (Ed to some of you) was taken ill at the third Easter Day service. We got him home to bed, where he remained practically comatose for two days. The doctors came and went and eventually anti-biotics began to kick in and he’s now practically back to normal, save for a complete lack of energy. The cause was an infected kidney stone, a nasty business.

Since we move out of the Rectory in August to live permanently at the bungalow, we’ve also been involved in building works (knocking two bedrooms into one) and quite a bit of refurnishing, all of which has taken its toll.

Next Thursday we’re off for a fortnight’s holiday in Singapore with out eldest daughter and family. Fi is setting up a training course for Health Professionals involved in autism, so Ed and I are keeping Stu company and (of course!) babysitting. Since a very busy Easter followed by the trauma of serious illness in the family has produced its own stress, I’m really looking forward to getting away from it all.

Roll on Thursday!
