6 weeks flew by in a flash and my liberation days are over. It was an enjoyable 6 weeks filled with family time, lots of me time and yet also busy. I managed to tick off everything on my to-do list yet I feel I didn’t achieved much. Towards the end of my liberation days, I started indulging in nostalgic activities like watching old TVB dramas, it was really very nice and I will miss my self indulgent, liberation days dearly.
I am mostly sad that I won’t be able to be involved in the girls’ school life as much, but surprisingly, my daughters are actually glad that I’m going back to work! Saitaoha has been asking me when I’m going back to work because she really wants to just spend alone time with her grandparents and her sister. My takeaway from this unusual scenario is that I’m not a fun mum and am quite strict with them so they’re looking forward to a more relaxing lifestyle with their grandparents! It’s actually a relief for me that they love being with their grandparents so much, I’ve mentioned before, my parents shower then with so much love and care that they’re wrapped in this warm cocoon all the time. It is no wonder that they find my parents home so comforting and don’t miss the presence of their parents much.
Some parents might be upset about this but I’m not at all, I love being with my parents too so I’m glad my kids take after me haha. During the last week, the kids and I had a staycation at my parents’ house while they were away, it was actually very fun, my parents’ house is really a home away from home for us.
I’m not too worried about my first day tomorrow because it will mostly be filled with induction training. I’m looking forward to getting a new work laptop, mobile and work pass ! Gosh I’m such a loser :(. I think I need work to make my life fulfilling, what a weirdo!
Wish me luck for my next stage in my career, I’m hoping it’s all sunshine and rainbows 🌈 ☀️, surely I’m overdue some good luck at work right ?
