To 2021 we go

We are closing in to the end of 2020 with much uncertainties of the pandemic whether we will see the end of it ....Whether we still get to keep our jobs and at what cost. I don’t even know if school is going to start soon. But if anything I learnt this year is that it’s ok to have no control, it’s ok to not know, and that I learnt to be PRESENT. Who and what matters now - not just your family & close ones but the precious friendships that we sometimes take for granted. I didn’t pick up a new skill in 2020 ( ok maybe I manage to whip some quick meals skills! ), but I learnt to stay in touch. Ok 2021, please be kind. 

2020

What a year this has been, and what a ride it has been and continues to be ! It’s the year of the covid19 pandemic. I can’t remember the last time I was this overwhelmed ; might have been during Lucas first year . But this is way way longer than that. I have I think lost about 9kgs. Probably ran about close to 2500km. Started cooking again daily. The worst was probably the first 3 months as I battle work and Lucas’ online school at home. I think few could relate to this ordeal but keeping sane was a huge feat. So I have probably watched more series than I would have really liked to. There are days when I embraced working from home, but there were also days when I craved for company. I did spent more time with Lucas though I have to admit not all were quality time. It is possible that you may love someone but might not necessarily need to see that person 24hours/day?
