A Good Night - and a Sad Farewell...





Well, after all my angst yesterday, last night went VERY well. Alice was a bit spacky when I first put her down, but she slept through until 4am, had a bit of a cry, then went back to sleep until 7am!! I, of course, had one of the worst nights ever, as I was wracked by guilt and worried that she would have a bad night. Perhaps tonight I will be a bit more relaxed (cue CTG's glass of wine!) and we will all sleep.

On a sad note, I was just reading the ABC news and noticed that Aussie actor Heath Ledger has been found dead in his home of a suspected drug overdose. Silly, silly boy. What a tremendous waste of talent and potential. He was a great actor, and will be sadly missed by many....

It is a sad loss. Both via age, the family left behind & the talent never to be seen. However, I think the drug o/dose is being very heavily downplayed. Only reports I've heard today are full bottles in the room & he'd been ill. The fact it's got to go down to the more nuanced tests etc is interesting. Nothing outright there. Doubt the real truth will ever fully be known. Tis sad indeed.

On a different note, I'm glad the sleeping issue is coming to a comfortable conclusion :)

So sad. Not only was a super spunk, but he was a very talented actor too.

I feel for his family (particularly his baby girl)...

Alice is a champion!
