Some updates
I haven’t been saying much on this blog lately.
Firstly, time definitely has not been on my side of late. Secondly, I have been spending too much time on my other blog. This is testament of the fact that all mothers do not have any ME time. I have more daughter stories than of my own. A friend is going for a movie and some shopping tonight. All I can say is I wish I could be watching a movie and do some shopping. I also wish for someone to buy me something. Like a personal assistant who picks out what I want to wear tonight for dinner and what I want to eat tonight. I wish I was Kimora living my life on the Fab Lane. The only thing Fab about me after delivering is actually acquiring a cleavage.
Today has been a mixed feeling day. In fact, this whole week hasn’t been great. Just too many unsettled things. I feel as though my life is moving, moving super fast. I haven’t had a chance to sit back and smell the roses. Smell what roses? The only smell I smell everyday are smelly poo and urine. All courtesy of my daughter. At times, I find that she’s an absolute angel, god’s creation, a miracle and on the same breath, I wonder why there is such a thing called “pro-creation”. Its not pro at all.
Ok, I shall stop whining and whinging cos it will never end until they reach 21 and move away. Lets not waste an already beautiful day. The good news for our family is that this morning, our loan is fully paid. Yipee..Not this house, our mini apartment which we bought many years ago. We rented it out the day we got the keys. For some reason, I feel really sentimental about the apartment. Its our first property. And we had worked hard in our savings to own it and now finally, we can truly say, its ours. Its the best feeling. Very liberating. Its not only the relief. Sure I feel much relieved but its more of the achievement. Its not a huge sum for many but for us, its a burden nonetheless. One less burden is definitely something anyone can do without. Not an attempt to compare but just that I feel blessed. Blessed and thankful for everything that I have and achieved up till now. It may not be much by certain standards but for me, it is enough. Enough to feel contented with my life. Anything else that comes will be some sort of a bonus.
