cramming, cramming, cramming ...

i finally got off from work but still have this nagging feeling of something, or some things i may have missed or forgotten ... i just can't put my finger on whatever that is ... hmmmm

anyway, i looked forward to coming home and know how father and son fared during the day. my sweet child, as a consequence of his little mischief in school yesterday, missed his football game. as a consolation, we allowed him to go to the play school's kiddie party today. my hubby has expressed a little anxiety to pick up our "bundle" of joy from school ... he's afraid to hear that he may have done something untoward another child, again! but no, there was none of that. instead, he got praises from two of his teachers who commended him for good behaviour and being helpful to his classmates. boy, was my hubby proud and he told me over the phone that he left the school building with a big smile on his face - all beams, actually.

when i came home from work, the house was quiet ... no sign of activity. i noticed that the bicycles were not parked where it should be - they were out exploring on two wheels ... good sign, meaning they're the best buddies again. and i was glad - because i have the house for myself, at least for an hour or so.

instead of relaxing, i fell into the same old pattern being the mother hen that i am - opening and closing the fridge and freezers thinking of what to prepare for dinner, checking if the dishwasher is full to get it going, or if there's enough milk to last until tomorrow morning - oh yes, i need to prepare picnic basket, too ... that's for the class day at the park tomorrow .... i'm cramming, cramming and cramming. i did a run check in the bathroom, and as i suspected, clothes were hung all over the place - the tub, the sink, socks on the floors - geez, it all seemed like a hurricane swept in. and then my boys came - both were tired and had a quick cold drink each and then announced they're hungry! geez, i haven't even done a thing yet ... so, off we went and bought thai food in a nearby restaurant. our dinner - noodles, lumpia, crispy fried chicken and shrimps and rice in an instant! all that was left were empty food boxes and cartons - off to the recycling bins they go! this is luxury for me!

my mind is still racing ... i'm cramming for time ... dunno really what i'm missing ....
