Nice Weekend

Took Thursday off and took parents to Mines Lake Tour (was supposed to be Jalan TAR's visit but the crying Azeuchry called us back).

Friday. Visited my grandmother's little Sister. Both husband and wife are now on Severe Stage of Alzheimer. They stayed with their two single girls. They can't remember faces. They remembered old stories. The wife apparently still can talk but the husband had lost his talking skills. Both had lost the basic skills like going to the loos, asking when they are hungry and of course, loving.

I pitied the girls much more. The youngest one, especially. She is my age. At the age of 30, I could go out and buy things that I want, I have a husband to hug and hugs me back, I have a kid to love and loves me back. God! I have so much more than Ateh Ya has. She doesn't even watch TV. The time is occupied cleaning up after the parents, cooking for them, cleaning up the mess they purposely created. Other than that, she just had to look at them sitting on the sofa not talking to each other.

All of us were overwhelmed with various feelings.

After the parents gone back home, the Man decided to cheer me up and drove to Genting. We arrived around 3:00, bought tickets for Outdoor park and dragged Azeuchry around. I counted and towards the end of the day, we had four rides altogether: The Ferris Wheel (mommy, daddy and Azuechry), Teacups, Jumbo and Train.

Saturday. We stayed home and Mommy cook delicious mee soup.

Sunday. Ironed the weekend's shirts. We did up the garden a bit and went to Kamarul's son's wedding. Came back and saw TV.

I must say it is rather a nice weekend because I got ahead of all the chores. It is nice to be finishing the chores and do nothing on Sunday but relaxing.

Nice weekend.
