Apologies for the silence. I have been extremely busy in the past few weeks and will continue to be until the end of October.
I think I have taken multi tasking to the extreme. At this point of time I am trying to juggle between daily swedish classes, completing the homework (which is quite a lot), learning to drive the swedish way, taking care of the kids and getting them to and from school, preparing meals, and keeping an eye on the bathroom renovation, shopping for food, pink clothes for the diva and looking at bathroom tiles. It doesn’t sound that difficult as I write it all down but it is quite a lot to do somehow.
I hardly have any time to sit down and just daze (which I do alot in my previous life in Singapore). These days, I turn a blind eye to the mess in the house because I really do not have the time to keep the house really tidy. I barely have the time to pick the apples and plums growing in the garden!
And I am usually in bed by 10 pm because I am flat out tired!
I hope I do not sound like I am complaining. I actually enjoy the rush and the challenges at times. Believe it or now, it is only recently that I realised that I have actually moved out of Singapore and now have a new life in Sweden. Yes, it took me a while to really come to terms with it and maybe because I have been too busy adjusting and adapting with the daily activities to really think about it. It’s crazy i know…but sometimes I have to remind myself to also LIVE and ENJOY the moment. (like now!)
Ok…the moment is over…now I have to get back to my swedish homework. There is another test tomorrow.
