I’ve grown accustomed to staying at home as much as I can that being out of the house 3x this week totally exhausted me 🤣🤣. I am not able to find the extra day to go to our gym, I need to take care of myself also.
Knowing that I’ll be out three consecutive days, I worked like shit on Wednesday covering those additional jobs that were to be done on all Thursdays, Fridays and of course Wednesdays all into one day. Was totally flat out, that I slept much earlier than usual & even had a funny dream.
23rd (Thu)
Skipped Fight-Do (second time consecutively coz last week I had to bring lil’ one for her test). I had to accommodate to J’s timing coz she’s working. We met in the morning before her appointment. The last time I met or rather I bumped into her was in 2019 when we both signed up for the same cute mantou making class. We signed up for a class together in 2020 but they had to cancel it during Covid, so ……
On and off we still message each other. Thank goodness WhatsApp is free so we can spam as many messages as we want without limitations.
Nevertheless we had a great 3.5hours catching up. A photo for momento, the staff was rushing us out of the cafe 😂 that we didn’t get a chance to take pictures inside.
Returned home to pick lil’ one up to collect her new passport. Packed dinner and headed home. Was tired to be out for only 5 hours or less. Old body 🤭
24th (Fri)
This meeting was planned sometime in mid June. Postponed with date then it became from table of three to four. Yay!
When you put a bunch of women in their 50s together, the voice gets even louder 🤣. S and MH were standing at one side choosing the kuehs while E and I were on the other side choosing cakes. They were so loud, louder than us 😂. As it is I was trying hard to hear E, who has a softer voice, I had to crane my neck towards her to hear her. When the staff was repeating our orders the three of them were behind me talking away so loudly 🤣. Wah! I had to silence them 😅. Can’t blame us lah! Coz we haven’t seen each other for quite some time, if I wasn’t standing in the front I would be one of the noisy old ladies.
We spent a good 4 hours and proceeded to dinner and continued all the way until 9.19pm! We met at 2.30pm. Maybe the next one we should go to someone’s house, can stay as long without anyone chasing us out of restaurant or cafe.
One pic without the hands blocking 😬
they say there’s a trend to do this. Ok lor! If you say so.
E, who turned a year older just 4 days ago (20th). Our initial date of meeting. No birthday song but just a cake for her.
Happy Belated Birthday, E!
We were batchgirls in SQ. S and I were LSS batchgirls as well! We were young and fresh, now all old and naggy 🤣. E is the only lady still flying.
I last met E last June to pass her things (was on her flight in 2024) after I got back from my solo trip. Last met MH on 19th June. Last met S in Mar 2023 where a few of us including MH managed to do a reunion.
I’d love to gather with more of my batchmates but it’s always much easier to meet up with a small group where liasing on an agreed date is so much easier. Our next group outing will be to JB with a date already set. So exciting! My first overseas / over the causeway trip with friends.
Went home with my heart full. Felt my weight lighter coz they made my
lighter in those few hours.
** it’s not that I don’t like to meet up with my friends. I do make an attempt to meet up but I always space out the meetings. I don’t go meeting my friends every week or every month also lah! It’s just that it’s so coincidental that this week alone I meet on two days.
25th (Sat)
Wah…..Woke up from another weird dream.
Evening time to SNYCO concert. Will post a separate post on this.
Reached home at 10+ and was busy with laundry. I don’t even feel like ironing clothes tomorrow, I don’t feel like doing anything after the sinseh visit. I hope he gives the go ahead and give us 2 weeks of medication so I only need to bring her to the clinic every fortnight.
Sigh ….it’s not over 26th (Sun)
Another 七早八早 must force myself to wake up super early. I’ve been bringing lil’ one to TCM sinseh for her tonsilitis problem EVERY SUNDAY. And it’s so tiring
**********
What an exhausting week. I wish ……
Oh no! I realised it’s going to be another exhausting week next week as well. 我的天啊‼️I can’t even find extra time to go to the gym! Next week : - 1) have to bring mom to see the doctor alone, I think that will be exhausting for me if there’s no direct carpark. Coz I’m alone, will need to drop her somewhere and plonk her in the wheelchair then I drive to park; then I walk back to her. After doc appt the reversal. If it’s shaded still not too bad, if it’s under the hot sun☀️..🥵 2) have to go for my Fight-Do class. 3) dental appointments for the 3 females. 4) TCM sinseh if he still need to see her weekly
Following week (3rd - 9th Aug week) another 3 days out! Wah lau eh…. I’m so bloody exhausted leh! When I’m out of the house means I can’t do certain housework then I have to cram the work on affected days into the days I’m in + cooking. And I’m also tired coz now I have additional work to do, have to change che-che’s bedsheets twice a week instead of once a week coz of her eczema problem, have to be more hardworking to clean the dust from her room. And still gotta cook. I don’t have a helper leh! And if the educational psychologist finishes her report I’m suppose to meet her this week to hear what she has the say, I also need the report asap to submit to school. Things that will keep me on my toes this week are :- 1) mom’s doc appt. 2) hubby’s doc appt. 3) Fight-Do. 4) TCM sinseh if he still need to see her weekly
And when is che-che’s dermatologist appt? Sigh……or should I skip Fight-Do next few weeks? End up I die earlier coz I’m so tired being out of house and doing all the houseworks and I don’t get to exercise my body.
