Busy, busy me and family

When i stopp posting daily, that means something is not normal. Like the past week, i was terribly busy. A friend thinks that i am stressed out when i told her that i had a stomach pain on and off for the whole weekend, without any other symptoms. Yes, maybe i was.

This new job, finally i began to like it in a way. The projects are challenging, but interesting. Maybe i was trying to do too much at the same time, or maybe it was just because it is such a new area for me, i found myself busy, but not efficient or organized at all, which is not the real me. It seems like each step, even a single move will take me a day to search, read and understand, and then i am lost somewhere again. I know deep down in my mind that i really wanted to get some good results as soon as possible, but, everyone re-assured me that I got to take my time. I decide that starting from this week, i will give myself sufficient time and try to slow down, make sure everything is in order, maybe it will help me stay calm. Focus..

We had a very busy weekend, partially because i was not feeling well and everything was slowed down. Lei and Yaya went to dancing class in the morning and then we did drive back to Evanston for the first time ever since we moved to attend a party of Yaya's former friends at school. The kids had a wonderful time, including Peter. Of over 3 hours of staying, Yaya has been laughing, running without a single attempt to get close to me. Peter was also busy exploring the big kids' world as well as playing with other adults. Afterwards, we stopped by the building we used to live in for a short while upon the strong request of Yaya's. It was 9pm already when we finally got home. Peter slept until 7:30am on Sunday morning, which really means that he was too tired. Then Sunday, we went for Dim Sum, another quick meal for me, in the afternoon, we went to Lifetime fitness for the first time, where Yaya had a great time swimming. It took her a couple of minutes to get used to water and then she was all on her own. Peter, on the other hand, was very much attached to me. Still I am thinking of getting Yaya a real swiming class for her to get started without any floating device.

There was a heavy shower going on and off on Sunday afternoon. The kids were so excited about it and we watched it through our glass door for quite some time. Peter now is so actively involved in everything and he seems so anxious to start talking. Most of the time when he is awake, i found it so noisy since he constantly "talking" or "shouting" very loudly about something. Though Lei praised his son being so enthusiastic. Also, the hot weather last week seems to have spoiled the little boy, for now he wants to head out whenever he can.

Till next time...
