In the news

Every now and then something horrible hits the news. I think the paper said that on average in my little country it's  once a year that a 'family drama' occurs: when a parent kills their children and commits suicide. This time it came with a twist, because the two little bodies were hidden, and half the country was searching for two weeks. (with hope fading of finding them alive)
On the day they were found another missing person story made it to the paper. She was a famous Dutch volleyball player. And had gone to Murcia, Spain with her partner. Just for three days, probably for fertility treatment. They haven't come back.

We almost went there. Around this time of year, last year. It feels like I have escaped something. It feels like it could have been us.

That feeling will fade I suppose. It's just....... Take care (and please don't go missing) 

[Update: It didn't end well. Suspects have been arrested, bodies found]

{another horror story with thank goodness a miracle ending: chinese baby found alive after having been born in and flushed down a toilet. Poor woman. poor baby}
