Another Year - Another Circle

This morning is miserable. Its cold and wet, and Spring seems to be going backwards. Last year at this time I was planning to try and visit someone I had lost touch with through a long protracted state of entropy a few years ago. I came back from my holiday in Glastonbury and was all set to carry out this plan, but then events took a turn for the worse.
   My Daughter of three started a small blood spot on her face. It wouldn't stop bleeding and quickly grow into a large growth that was not life threatening, but was hard to bandage and distressing for her as the bleeding often required a trip to casualty. It was truly horrendous. Eventually an emergency simple operation was brought forward and all was well, until a water infection took up the rest of the Summer...
  This debacle took all my energy and attention last Summer and catching up with lost friends just wasn't going to happen. Truth be told I often come up with excuses not to look people up. I spend all week think of positives, then swing the other way saying the past is best left in the past. And maybe some of it is better left there, but of course ultimately it festers behind your back. Maybe it no longer even exists and you are left stood looking like a plonker, and yes, ive been there too.
