Mum is in Spore with Aaron for more than a month now and we have to adapt to a new lifestyle.For one thing without them the house is so quiet and dull.Everybody works and comes back at night by which time we only watch TV for an hour or so before I call
it a night.No "my turn" for the tv and the cartoon programmes are not turned on.
In the mornings papa is so free he does not know what to do cos he does'nt have to cope with dramas and etc or fight to get Aaron off from watching his favorite Ultraman or Bob the Builder to take his shower and get ready for school.Yup life is not the same without the little fella .
After work there was always the little fella waiting to greet you and its strange coming home without someone greeting you and more importantly having to look for your own dinner everyday.I am not one to be fussy about food ,we have been brought up to eat just to fill your stomach ,to keep you from being hungry.I would just drop by anywhere convenient and grab a bite and that is sufficient.The Sundays are still something to look forward to .Waking up early ,having breakfast with the cronies and enjoying a round of golf and then lunch are things to look forward to.
Even the maid is trying to adapt.I'm sure she is a bit lost as she has to spend the whole day by herself.If she could express herself I'm sure she will tell us how bored she is,more so having to plan her own meals.
But life goes on so we have to adapt,just like when we did when all our children were away from home at one stage.I have also stayed alone in four different places.Sitiawan,Tashkent,Melaka and lembah Beringin and that has taught me to be independent and to be self reliant.Man is adaptable and its a matter to coping with a new environment and making the best use of circumstances beyond your control and at the end of the day you will be surprised how resilient we really are .
