21.4.12 - It's 10:50am now on a Sat and while I am penning this, TH is at his desk doing some paper work while enjoying songs on his handphone. Gee, this is the first time he switches on the songs like what I have been enjoying all these while, while I cook and clean. Good for him. Today, JW has school replacement and JS is out at Perfection tuition at this moment.
It's been more than a week now that TH has retired from work. He called it a quit after business was bad. I have been worried about the uncertainties ahead and whether we will have problem adapting to this change.
But, so far so good, everything turns up well. He is extremely understanding and caring as not to disturb my routine. He run errands for me and I feel like I have an extra hand these days. He helps to fetch the kids, start to do some handy jobs at home, etc. Usually when he checks the cupboard, he will nag me for keeping so many rubbish but now, he know s that he will have to do it on his own if he think he wants to dispose them and not nag at me anymore.
Thinking back, in fact he being at home is a blessing in disguise for me. I feel a little amount of pressure being at home with him the whole day but surprisingly these pressure are quite pleasant. I make effort to wake up early and dress decently. That day, we went for lunch at Maju Palace, just both of us while the kids were at school. It was like we were on a date, the dim sum was so delicious.
I hope this good harmony at home will prevail. As long as we both are courteous and know our boundaries, I guess there will be no problem at all.
Surprisingly, he listens to me. I suggests that he buy the chinese newspaper everyday to read as it is a very good habit to kill some time at home. I know he doesnt read much, he prefers to watch news on TV. Anyway, he starts to buy newspaper and I am truly happy to see that he is trying it out.
