Medical Leave...

Many people thinks its nice to be on MC resting at home... rest... read a book... take a nap...

But with my 2 kids constantly hogging for my attention, almost all these things never happened.

I can't really recall what I've done for the past week... I know Ipainted my bed room twice...

The kids wanted to help paint my room, they each grabbed a tool and pretended painting around the room.








They played silly games...









And laughed they heads off..















When I completed the green and looked at the effect, I didn't like it at all. It makes the bedroom looked very old. Like 2 old farts been living there for 20 over years.

So, after much serious discussion with the lady of the house, we decided to have a more romantic Lavender purple, which we both feels good about. So I bought another can of paint and changed the color.

I watched plenty of Hong Kong Drama series because my sister rented 3 titles for me, each one with 30 over episodes except the last one.

First was Dicey Business, which talks about the rise and fall of Casino Tycoon, showing what greed can do to a person and affecting the people around him.

The second title Land of Wealth talks about banking system in the old china. Politics between banks, how they survive thru time, and also about the revenge of one man's family.


The third is a drama about this fat girl finding love...

The media was broadcasting about how the leading lady put on weight so to be suitable for the role. Then after the production, many slimming company approached her to help her slim back for free.

I guess the best part of being on long MC is being able to spend more time with the kids, break certain habits which I always want to help them get rid of... namely to wean off the bottle for my 5 years old.

I gave her a 7 days challenge of not using the bottle to drink her milk at all. At first she struggled. Milk too hot, milk too cold, too much can't finish... each cup she took more than 30 mins to consume.

By the 3rd day, she can finish the whole cup in 10 mins.

Well... Tomorrow I'll be heading back to work. I'm expecting a ton of papers piled on my table waiting for me to clear, and a list of issues waiting for me to make decisions.

Anyway... it was good break, time to face reality.
