Let's Spend This Weekend With Our Loved Ones

Picture is found here

Hello, my darlings! I was out of radar for a while, but I'm back now. First of all, Gong Xi Fa Cai! If you're celebrating, hope you have a great New Year.

What are your plans for this weekend? This weekend, I'll only have Sunday as my day off. But my colleague wanted to switch day off with me, so I'll have Saturday as my day off. Perhaps I'll take D for a Sunday's breakfast, he recently had a bad case of diarrhea and had to go to the E.R. to receive IV for two hours. He's alright now, but he is still abstaining from spicy foods.

I got an advice from a colleague, who has just lost her mother. She said that I should spend time with parents as long as they were alive because I would not know when their time in this world was up. She had spent many beautiful moments with her mother, such as taking her to Singapore and Bintan island, or when she was still assigned in Bali island, she took her for a quick getaway to Lombok island. Last December, her mother came to Jakarta and stayed in my colleague's rented room. 

"During that month, we cooked meals together, or simply talked. I knew my mother's health had been ailing. So everytime she was in a good health, I took her for vacations," my colleague said.

Ahem, but one day with my parents is enough I guess:).

Have a great weekend!
