I kept Greg at home on Monday after his bad fall on Sunday. Unfortunately, he suddenly developed tummy flu symptoms on Monday evening. Poor fella, Greg had to suffer so much. Luckily, I have quit my job. Otherwise I really wouldn't know how to take emergency leave as I was supposed to start work on 25 Feb 2008 after my maternity leave ended.
Life as a Stay-At-Home Mum (SAHM) is indeed not easy. Sometimes I envy my friends that they still have their parents around to help out. Previously I could go down to Mum's house if I needed any help or when I wanted to find a place to really laze around. Now I can hardly rest and I have to stand on my own almost all the time. Mum and Dad knew the times I was upset... and could help me solve those problems I was stuck with. They were always the first two persons who would come to my mind when I needed to talk or ventilate my frustrations. I know they would always be there for me but well, that's in the past. I couldn't find any personal time for myself at present and yes, I do feel very tired. I love my boys, for sure, but I do feel exhausted at times. Kudos to those SAHMs who are doing well. It's a job that's harder than any other jobs. It requires one to work 24/7 and there's no salary... sigh. Well, so much for my ventilation. Yes, I promise I will try again.. and will try harder.. Hmmm.. maybe I should think of the positive aspects of being a SAHM because not many people get the chance to be one. Kekeke..
