Off days

Bi-weekly, I will enjoy a Thursday off (though that is on the condition that I work on Saturday that week).  Wednesday night I began to plan what can I do the next day. So, what did I do today?

I woke up at 6am for my nightly routine toilet break.  Geo was very nice.  He always try his best to wake up and make the trip with me (sometimes despite his tiredness).  It suddenly hit the both of us that after March, there will be no more sleep ins, there will be no more couple time whenever we want. 7 years later, we would have to learn to wake up early (& I mean early) to make breakfast and get her ready for school.

Suddenly, I had a quick flashback of myself when I was very young.  My primary school was just downstairs, a cool 5 minutes walk.  Every night, mummy will look through my homework.  Every morning before the sunrise, mummy will prepare breakfast.  Daddy and mummy will go to work.  There were a couple of years when mummy did her part time night Diploma course.  On hindsight, now I wonder where mummy got all the energy from.


After the quick flashback, I dozed back off to Zzz-land, part 2.  After 2 hours, woke up and had breakfast with Geo and as he was preparing for work, I went back to Zzz-land part 3!! Haaa!  I woke up more refreshed.  Once I was up and about, I can't seem to sit still.

Checked out the food available in the fridge and cooked my lunch.  After that, cleaned the stove, scrubbed the lines in between the tiles.  I find myself addicted to this scrubbing.  Initially, it was just one cross that I was working on.. Soon, I was working on the whole kitchen. Honestly, it was such satisfaction! 

My OCD-ness

Macaroni lunch

Movie for the day.  A 1979 show about a wife's departure, a couple's divorce and a fight of son's custody.  I must have watched it when I was in Primary school...? I kinda figured that this is probably the show that opened me up to what family life, couple's relationship and empathy is all about.  :)
