I woke up at 6:45 a.m. today. I’ve been waking up at this time almost everyday throughout the MCO, except on days that Alycia has to go to school on Wednesdays and Thursdays when I will be up at 5:45 a.m. When Cass and Sherilyn return to school on 15 July, I’ll be up by…
A & S
Our middle child is the cheekiest and most mischievous of the three girls, from the moment she announced her grand arrival 15+ years ago. She’s the loudest, most aggressive and most melodramatic. She has mellowed down a lot now compared to her younger days. When Sherilyn is in a cheeky mood, she will tease everyone…
RMCO Day 23 ~ Thursday, 2 July 2020
In less than two weeks, Sherilyn and Cass will be returning to classroom learning! While I am glad that they can be back in school and not be cooped up at home and get hooked to their gadgets all day, I am a little sad that our long holidays will soon be over ? This kind…
RMCO Day 22 ~ Wednesday, 1 July 2020
Hubs managed to squeeze in some time to have breakfast with me at our favorite open air coffee shop today. It’s our first time in over 3 months since we last had our breakfast here together. The fish paste noodles seller who forgot to add fish paste into my food carrier last Saturday waved at…

My days are slowly but surely seeing some semblance of old normalcy now. I am getting busier by the day, just like how I used to before Covid-19. And as things slowly return to normalcy, my hectic days are following suit too. My sleep hours are getting shorter, my chauffeuring duties are getting heavier and…

Hubs has been swamped with work for the past two weeks on a project. He’s providing consultancy service to a client to set up a kitchen for a bistro. As the client needs the kitchen to be built in express speed so that it can be ready for the bistro to start business pronto, hubs…
RMCO Day 10 ~ Friday, 19 June 2020
After 4 days straight of eating delectable rich curried food from hubby’s shop this week, I had to run an extra mile today, in the glorious 10-ish a.m. sun. It feels absolutely satisfying to be drenched in sweat with rosy cheeks after a 40-minute jog ?♀️. I had a light mid-morning breakfast of sugar-free yoghurt and…

RMCO Day 7 ~ Tuesday, 16 June 2020
I skipped jogging this morning to wash my car that’s not been washed throughout the MCO, which is 3 months! But something unbelievable and amazing that I notice is even though my car hadn’t been washed for over 3 months, the exterior ain’t black, dusty nor coated with grime. She was even left outside the car…
RMCO Day 6 ~ Monday, 15 June 2020
Today I’m feeling a wee bit under the weather – throat is starting to act up and nose feels unusual, the kind that you know a cold or flu is about to attack. I know that if I don’t nip the virus or bacteria at the bud from proliferating, I could end up with a…
