anyway, took a day off ytd to babysit megan as her nanny is not free. joelle wasn’t able to take leave and so, i’m home alone with megan… having another taste of sahd… which is, very difficult… here we go:

the bloody alarm went off marking the start of the day. while joelle getting ready to work, i dumped all the laundry into the washing machine… (for those who knows me, you already know what else i’ve dumped into the washing machine w/o joelle knowing…)

and the first thing she does is to check the phone… haa… the way she mimic the adults…

time for her to shower anyway…

had my energy level down by another 10% after showering megan, with all those carrying and bending down and squatting down then standing up and carrying her out… phew, thats tough…

and all these effort is worthy after seeing how refreshed megan looks after her shower…

not to forget, trying to let her learn how to brush her teeth…

time:

energy
level:
50%
to make it a round figure, my energy level is down to 50%… in plain english, half-dead (half-alive, if you’re an optimistic reader)… and if my mcd bfast still don’t arrive in the next minute, i’ll be dead…

and thank god, my mcd finally came…
time:

alrighty, had my bfast… energy up… time to cook megan’s lunch…
time:

trust me, you never know how tiring it was for a person who can’t cook to … cook… finally prepared megan’s meal…

and all she had is only half a bowl of porridge, 2 lumps of meat, 1/4 hard-boiled egg and 2 slices of carrot… 

make her milk instead, and praying that she might want to sleep so i can had another shower while she sleeps… i’m sticky all over lor…

and the then she just simply don’t wanna sleep lor… no matter how i tried… and so, i accompanied megan watching tv, reading, playing until 3pm then she started yawning…

my chance to take a nap… better settle my toilet business and shower while she sleeps…

never did i expected megan to wake up so soon… only 1 hour of sleep… just after i stepped out of the toilet, she’s waking up…
time:
1800

energy

0.1%
from then on, its back to the watching tv, reading to megan and playing with her till its time to meet joelle at lot1…

so… notice i only had a meal for the whole day? i was so hungry and low in energy that after our dinner at ajisen, i had mcd for supper 3 hours later…

its not easy being sahd… i wonder how the others did it… :P

  1. Of course not easy lor.. that's why I rarely do that! Taking care of them the WHOLE day is more tiring than working for 1 week lor.. Although its way more fulfilling!
