May I invite you for a mid-morning snack…?
On Friday morning, Rú woke up a bit worn out (which is very uncharacteristic for him), and after checking him over, it was clear that his tonsils were the cause. So he skipped kindergarten that day, we went to the doctor, and made the most of having an unexpected free day to spend just the two of us!
After picking up his medication, we continued the day with a hearty mid-morning snack. Then he came with me to get my back treated by a masseur (Krav Maga isn’t always the kindest to my back). After dropping off some bills, we went grocery shopping for a delicious carbonara spaghetti dinner, which he ate with child-friendly storybook pasta shapes—adorable little characters!
In the afternoon, we celebrated Dad’s birthday, so the day flew by quickly. Somehow, time always seems to fly when life gifts us with a day like this—an unexpected pause to slow down and enjoy.

Welcome to our little virtual corner! I’m a single mother raising my wonderful son, Ruben, who has grown into a remarkable teenager. For years, I was the sole breadwinner as a Krav Maga instructor, balancing the challenges of parenthood and work on my own. When Ruben started kindergarten, I embarked on a new journey by studying healthcare management at Semmelweis University, specializing in health tourism management. After graduating, I began working in my field and experienced firsthand the tragic impact of the COVID-19 pandemic while serving as a healthcare manager in a state hospital. As the pandemic subsided, I transitioned into private healthcare, where I currently work as a practice manager. Meanwhile, our family moved from a small town to Vác, a charming historic Danube riverside city near Budapest. Here, we embrace the everyday moments and joys of life together. If you want to hear more stories about us, you’re warmly invited to visit the original Daysonpaper blog at S&Ru’s Diary on daysonpaper.blog.hu. So I decided to try living for a year on an international stage and see if there are other mothers in similar shoes for whom this diary could be a support on the harder days—just as it has been a support for me when I was able to look beyond the difficulties and sincerely believe in my own strength. Thank you for stopping by!
