I have hard time for the last 3 days in Manly Sydney, feeling frustrated couldn't find a nice place to stay... a dear friend of mine, Claudia. my best friend i love so much sent me an email which is bright my day... which i;d luv to share :)
Counterpart Diah !!! congratulations !! Selamat !!! u made it !!!!!
I'm so proud of u : )
wahhh.... such a long flight... I just read your blog... two stories airplane ?? I didn't know it even existed !
How is Sidney ? How are u feeling ? How is Kevin Joseph Shea ?? I hope his left hand is better now... I watched the video of Shea making surf in the wave thank.... wow !! I thought he is very good !!!
Did u find somewhere to live yet ? I know, this must be hard with high season... Hope u find a good place very soon : )
Oh... Diah, a new chapter of your life has begun just now.... It's ok to feel nervous... it's normal... But, one thing at a time... Sometimes, we have the big picture in our heads... we think too much... too far away... Just focus on one step at a time... The first thing u'll know, u will be settle... I hope and pray that everything will be smooth for u and Shea adjusting to Australian life... Aulia must be excited to see u !! (say hi to her from me !)
Ohhhhh u are so far away from Canada now... miss u....wish u were here and that u can just come to my house and we would share noodle together and chit chat.... but I am so happy email and facebook and skype exists... We can keep in touch even if we are far away...and share our strories.... So nice to write to u : )
Since I came back to work, I feel so busy.... it's crazy... I don't have any time for me or for my friends... I just focus to be a mom and a wife... I feel I am in survival mode... I'm glad I'm coming back part-time... it must be crazy to come back full time !!
U know, the first day at work, they gave me 14 patients and I had to do therapy with 5 of them the first day (one hour therapy session with each!!) ....I was looking at my new patients... and my head felt so empty... didn't know what to say or what to do with them.... wahhh...!!!
I just came back from 14 months maternity leave and feel so rusty... as if I forgot everything and my co-workers are like... yess... Claudia is back !! and they want to know what I would do in this case, or this one, they ask for my advice.... I am touched to see how much confidence they have in me... but still... I don't feel my confidence is back yet... I need some time... and it's hard to work only two days... u have to be very efficient... and I cannot stay longer after work like I used to do to finish file reports, etc coz I need to rush to get Olivier from the daycare (if we arrived past 4:30 pm we have to pay extra : 2$ every minute we are late !!!)
Then, when I come back home after work I feel exhausted...I have to take care of Olivier... then Nick arrives... also exhausted from is work day (and he has a big workload these days) ... we made supper... feed Olivier, play with him, bath, pyjama , story time. and sleep....
The day starts at 5:00 am and does not stop until 8:00 pm.... at 8:00 pm, me and Nick we just crash... sometime, I would like to go swimming or play badminton after 8:00 but I'm so tired.... I can't ...
and Olivier is sick all the time because of daycare... He catches every cold that seems to exist !! It's one after the other... Then, we worry coz he has fever, baby is coughing all night... baby is crying , doesn't want to eat and trough everything on the flour from his highchair... Then, the flour is all sticky from all the food Olivier through ... wahhh... and then, I catch the cold Olivier has... then, Nick catches it... By the time we are rid of it... guess what ?? Olivier gets another cold ... grrrrrr... But everyone tells me... don't worry... it's normal... Olivier is building his immune system... It's gonna be like this for another year.... at least... wahhhh.... anyway... Diah... I'm not ready to have another kid yet... I need to feel I'm back in control.... I hope it will happen... or that I will get use to it !!
Yeah.. this is my life for now... but still... we love Olivier so much and he makes us laugh every day.... He always do something new... He learned to pull is tongue out of his mouth and do it to us all the time and laughs out loud coz he thinks it is very funny !! He gives us hugs and kisses.. He is a happy kid... always smiling....Oh yeah... and he tries to sing with his favorite songs... oh... we are so lucky to have a child like him even tough sometimes it's so hard...
ok... I have to do some cooking and cleaning of the house... (it's my day off work and I brought Olivier to daycare today... a day for me !!! ahh... that feels very good !)
Have a nice weekend counterpart and enjoy Australian sun and Australian life !!
Take care... love u and miss u very much !
Claudia xoxo
Special kisses from baby Olivier
ps. I wear your green earrings right now... I love them : )
