Fri, 8 Sept - MC
The cold and cough finally got the better of me. Was feeling really bad the night before with a bad headache. This morning I felt slightly better but the headache was still there. Went to the doc's in the morning and after that "escaped" to my mum's place nearby to rest. Once in a while we take refuge at my mum's place when we do not wish to be disturbed by the kids. I know I wouldn't be able to get any respite from the kids if I had gone back home. I even managed to do a little bit of packing while I was there. Threw out some stuff (some of my ex-boyfriend's love letters! haha). I left quite a bit of stuff (including toys) behind at my mum's place when I moved out about 3 years ago. I brought the whole lot of plastic animals back home. Gave them a good wash in soapy water and left them near the window to dry. Isaac and Cheryl would have some fun playing zoo, safari or farm.
By 1pm, I was feeling much better even though I didn't take any medication given by the doc, so I decided to go home and have lunch since I was also hungry. So I managed to spend some time with the kids after all in the afternoon.
I'm a working mum with 2 school-going kids, a girl & a boy. I have been married since 1999 but we've only become a complete Catholic family recently after my hubby was baptised in 2011 during Easter. We enjoy local food and especially love a good cuppa teh tarik. I write technical documentation and copytext for a living. Since the arrival of my daughter in 2001, I am predominantly preoccupied with the kids. I like to draw cartoons and if I could, I would love to pursue the many other interests I have. Unfortunately, my secondary preoccupation now is organising the mess my main preoccupations are making, which leaves me very little time for other preoccupations...
