The Sebby Diaries - Even though I’m leaving... 07:58 - Dec 4 with 402 viewsNewcyBlue

Hey kids

At 0200 with Michael feeding, and Madeleine starting to stir, I kissed MrsN goodbye and left before she could see the tears on my face.

It’s going to be a long weekend. I’m travelling to Hong Kong. I have to get a COVID test in London, and then one on arrival in Honkers. I will be left to wait in a “holding pen” until my test result in Honkers comes back.

All going well I will board the ship Monday morning. It’s currently Friday morning.

I have been promoted to Chief Officer. The job I wanted. It’s a lot of responsibility.

I relish the opportunity. But leaving you all has never been harder than it was today.

It’s been a hard leave, full of hospital appointments and anxiety. I hope we are making progress.

When I get home you will all be bigger, stronger, and in more of a routine.

It’s a short one for now, I can’t put into words how much I miss you all. I hope that by doing what I do I can give you all the opportunities and happiness that I never had.

You’re all everything I love in life.

Here’s a song to convey my feelings.

Very much a bittersweet day. Congratulations on the promotion although it is so obviously tempered by having to leave your family again.

Best wishes Chief Officer Newcy.

Ah so that is what the London trip is for! Glad you made and glad to hear my advice was considered the most trustworthy. :)

Well done on the promotion mate. Something about babies and promotions, I had exactly the same with all 3 of mine in being promoted within a month of the births either way. Puts a bit of a challenge on but these things get slightly easier each day.

Growing up my dad worked away a lot and when I got older I realised the sacrifice that he made

Make sure you stay in touch on your travels
