I miss the holidays


Taken on morning around 0900 when I went in search of the niece. And this is what I saw, the bicycle left like so beside the tree. I wonder whether she was in a hurry to look/go somewhere. No time to stand the bicycle up properly. And then there's the shuttlecock which was  missing the evening before this picture was taken. I can only guess she got it down from our tree-eating shuttlecock by throwing some shoes to get it down. My clogs ( very precious I've had them since I did my horsemanship many years ago in Melaka ) left in the garden with no reason. If it was like this from yesterday, and if it had rained, the poor clogs would have been soaked,

I miss the holidays where everyone is home and there isn't any work related problems to solve, and no thinking involved expect on a superficial level about food, and what to do next, what movie to watch, weight gain, jigsaw etc.

Glorious long weekend



Malaysia must have one of the most number of public holidays. This is not evidence based. It's a personal opinion. We get two extra days this weekend. I'm all smiles this morning. The weekly laundry has been done. The dreaded hoovering too. And in addition ( because I felt extra chirpy) I even arranged the books on top of the piano. ( Which has been haphazardly sitting one on top of the another for at least 3.4 months now. As a reward, I found my missing note-book.  What's left is a lie-in this afternoon. Hope it rains later, I love the wet season.
