An unexpected turn

I have been going back to my home town motor than often nowadays as I need to relief my siblings who is taking care of my old man during the weekdays.

Well, I'm not exactly in a position where I can ask for a break. My parents took care of us when we were young, it's my duty to show my children I'd try my best to care for my parents as now they're in need.

The big girl had a bad cough recently, I'm just not too comfortable bringing her with me as my parents are very weak. I don't want anything to happen to them because of my girl's condition.

The young boy is now marching into his teenage years, I'm expecting to see less smile from him, but all that is anticipated. I will just need to be cool, talk to him like an adult like how my dad talked to me then.

A blessing in disguise, the password change on my company computer went extremely wrong despite not my fault. The active directory did not sync with the proxy server single sign on, as a result the damn thing was locked. Which means, even if I bring along my laptop, I will not be able to use them. That took a 180 degree turn. I know it's going to be all hell broke loose the day when my ID is unlocked, but that will be another day to worry.

Midnight driving with the boy proven to be less hassle, and I actually enjoyed the chill drive with absolutely no stress. Occasionally taking wind drag behind other cars, can mean breathing toxic fumes, at the same time more fuel efficient to my car 🤣

After dropping the boy with my parents, I went to visit my cousin as his mother, my aunt passed away. They used to live across the street when I was young. She used to babysit me when my parents went to work. She was diagnosed with terminal cancer and has a life expectancy of 3 to 6 months to live, 3 years ago.

After which, I proceeded to look for some local food that I have long craved. Curry flat noodles with pig skin, with a bunch of ½ price bean curd that will normally cost a bomb in Kuala Lumpur. Later I packed up some egg tarts and sausage buns for junior, and as usual no smiley face for me.

Later that evening, we went to attend the evening mass at St.Michael. I show my boy around my high school and where we used to play hide and seek at the graveyard 🪦 besides the church.

About my job? It's still unbearable as we still unable to find a replacement staff. I work alone taking over the entire business unit. That 3 days computer locked out, had piled up 700 new emails now become backlog. We have 1 young colleague who died at work due to a heart attack this week. Let's pray that I can survive this.
