Touching Base

I took a short break over the weekend. I felt it was time to touch base with those I love and care about. I also needed the time to space out too, and let the healing process begin. But what I realise is that sometimes, before something gets better, it does get worse first.

The thing that I wanted for K finally happened. He has found someone that he would like to settle down with. For awhile, he showed me a succession of pretty ones, (hahaha...first line of censorship huh? or for stamp of approval?)that I lost count who was who. So it is a little surreal to accept the fact that he has found THE ONE (hahaha). Sorrie dearie...(you know me lah...remember the joke about I will only breathe easy when you show me the cert in hand?)

But that was all behind him now.
I have not him so calm and at peace with himself for a very long time.
I guess my instincts had been right...for the gem has managed to polish itself...The values were there all the time, only misplaced for a little while. Way to go, and all the best.

I took my medication and let them take effect.
The weather did not help.
I felt wilted, droopy and terribly lethargic. I was a sloth...down with

I had to cancel the usual Sunday activities.
The house had an unusual silence...haha..never thought I would really miss the buzz of activities when the other brood comes down. I enjoy cooking up square meals to feed the troops.

But I got to touch base in another way..."Mada mada da ne" anyone?
Had fun watching Ryoma, Tezuka and the gang...defy every possible law in physics. Perhaps the best part was because the kids decided to keep me company as we kept cool in the room.

I also got to talk chat with some other people on line. Haha...yes sweetie, while FB is ok with its shoutout and all, I will resist the urge to try Tweeter...I do not think I need a play-by-play account of what a person is doing at the moment.

And Sky...I know you were joking when you asked me that question.
But still, it threw me off guard for a while. Perhaps I should have answered, "yes".

Wardah, Faiz...I am going to make time to catch up too.

But I know...despite all that catching up...there is one more person I really need to touch base with..to clear the air and start perhaps, find ways to make better sense of things...Lets find the 1% we agree on, and give it 100% of our effort.
