Attend to my super active, hyper and naughty nephew. Handful.....I have my voice screaming at him most of the time. Minus a few spank on his butt....which leave him running to my mom or dad to hide. Even that also he still tell them that I am the bad guy...He knew very well all those naughty things that he did was wrong....just plain naughty. He can really rock the house upside down.
There are times he said that he feels like to cry....and he did...for no absolute reason. Screaming and yelling in tears like a mountain gorillas.
My youngest sister came back last weekend. She finally convinced my dad that she want to take express coach home. For the first time dad said yes. After all she all grown up already. Its good to see her. The last I saw her was last Eid I think. Getting matured and wiser. Whoever that she is with now in terms of love matters..hope it is for the best interest of both worlds. Involve in Blue Blood rank is not always a good thing.
Accompany my dad for another check up too, went to eye specialist. He need to remove cataract. Nothing major just simple procedure. Its common issue nowadays. I m gonna company him all the way. Thereafter only will the spectacles come in handy.
Sitting around at home with my aging parent...its a great eye opener. It makes me realized how much things change in away. Their ways and attitude does not change much....they speak and let go about each other in my presence. All I did was ...yes...alright..yup...hmm. Don't involve much in husband and wife problem..especially if they have been married for almost 40 years...
As much as they look at us as a child forever in their eyes, we tend to look at them as the same parent that we grew up with before we spread our wings into the outside world. It is important to stay connected. Always remember to bite your tongue....trust me...it is worth to do so...unless of course if your set of parent is abuser or criminals..that is a different issue....
Venturing into small income churning at this golden age..was not an easy thing to do as well. Challenges came in many directions. From type of guest that stays over...to psychical challenges of cleaning, mopping and changing bed sheets. Replenish and also maintenance.
If only these small town of mine are touristic enough I don't mind running the Home Stay. It is seasonal. Let see what I can do...may we can get long term contract from those automotive industrial. It will be a good revenue.
Dad has vision issues...mom on the other hand still fits but not as fit as before either... Took over some correspondence and updating matters. Just to keep things handy. I re-write again phone numbers, bank account and also my dad's medication in bigger writing, easy for him to see it. Even today, I helped him to cut and trim his finger nails. Usually mom does that for him when she has free time.
24 hours of my day to day since two weeks ago still very much in tranquility. The best moment was to sit with them and chat. I don't like to cause trouble to anyone....carry myself well even they are my own parent. Don't be a burden to anyone if possible...ensure you have the right person that able to aid you thoroughly...
Its not necessary have to be your own blood.... Recognize these faces during your hardship...Trust me I have recognize mine....
