H1 n1 flu jab....... anyone taking it?
Haji lane in the morning..
and then the search for mussels...
and then a blissful 40 winks...
and then we shall hit town to look at the Christmas lightnings..

Musing....

This morning ....I stumbled upon this excerpt...



"I thought I’d learned from you. From watching you tear yourself apart over Greg and drag yourself down so low that at one point I really had no idea how to help you back up. I thought I could learn from that and not allow my feelings for a man to consume me until I can barely do anything else… Why? Why does it have to be now? What the hell is wrong with us? New Year’s Eve, we made a promise to be sensible this year and get rid of all the bullshit and work on fixing ourselves. And now look — almost a year later and we’re still as much of a mess as we’ve ever been! What happened to us?

In all the frustration, the only answer I could think of, as I pulled myself out of the freezing, drowning depths of my own thoughts and memories in yet another futile effort to put the past behind me, was, “Men happened to us.”
Much later, I realized that I had given the wrong answer, that the answer wasn’t the men.


Love happened to us."

Umbrella by Mister D











很开心

Another happy day.
D was very good in class repeating all his Mandarin.
He can even pick out his name in chinese character and say it now.
A big feat for him i feel given that this fella hardly open his mouth!
He could even tell the helper that he made an 雨伞at school . hahaha.

Then i had a good afternoon at Popular book shop.
I was so excited when i saw a whole set of Roald Dahl books , the whole set!
I love to shop for books, for charts, for assessment books. hahahaha
and of course, another Korean drama.

Then back for a swim. another 15 laps. i am so happy.
I must continue to do this! :D

Love, Elaine
