I'm feeling much better today though not 100% recovered but there's so much things need to be done around the house. With much determination, I finally started painting the dining room with the help of my sidekick (my 2nd son Khairie. He's a great helper when you need one) while being seranaded by the much requested Hari Raya songs echoing from the radio........ I also did the painting of the walkway..too bad I didn't have enough paint to enable me to do the 2nd coating. I just hate it when I was about to show great enthusiasm to finish up a certain task that you are hindered with something....for my case.....the lack of paint...But I will not allow myself to be drown by the stress. I diverse my frustration to clear the laundry/utility room. That area isn't much to look at becoz it's where the laundry is and I don't do laundry. It is the ultimate boring area of my house. My mum was like countlessly asking me to repaint that area but I was like hmmmmm (there's so much things on my head rather that clearing that filth)....:) I was like thinking : This is a real challenge for me....if I can accomplish by clearing up and re-paint the whole area, singlehandedly...it will be the most greatest achievement for me. I also found out that I have way to many leftover paints from my daughter's room that I should do something with it.....rather than to chuck them all at the garbage bin....I started slow....boring...seeing my mum watching the sappy korean-japanese drama I bought for her makes me wanna stop and join her as well.....but NO....I can't do that....I just need to clear my head and focus on what I have to do....(Time is of an essence / Time is also a great healer / Patience is a virtue) Thank you Dr Phil.....gradually I started to have that foam and I finally decided to make this as a fun place instead....I let my kids drew anything they like and I painted it. I took the pic right after I complete it. I have yet to add few more touch ups to make it look more snappy. Something cheerful of course. While resting my weary legs on the chair, I felt great sense of accomplishment that I had approached this task with a boundless zest.
