Time flies. In a blink of an eye, RK's one week holiday is over and I did not realize the impact of having him around the house for an entire week until I started planning my work on the next week. OMG! I was pretty much unproductive this whole week (with RK lurking around in the house) and I have only completed a very small portion of my project work. It looks like the week ahead is going to be tough as I will have to speed up and make up for the loss time.
Day 103 - Saturday
The 3 of us went out to the food market at Jurong East for breakfast and we took a bus to IMM after that. The intent for going to IMM is to get another standing fan for the house in preparation for the hot and humid summer days that is coming our way. Sometimes I wonder if what would have happen to people like us living in Asia had the man who invented air-conditioner & fridge failed to invent them after all. Would we be submerging ourselves inside the water a.k.a swimming pools all day long during hot summer days? :D
After a quick lunch at the foodcourt at IMM, we took a bus back home. I managed to get some work done in the afternoon after we washed up.
Today also marks the day the 3 of us started playing Slots Paradise - another app game from within Facebook. The game was easy to play, the leveling up was quick and the graphic for the bonus games look great. Will THL and I get hooked and play this game everyday? Time will tell. Let's see. I must say it has a really close similarity to those slot machines inside casinos.
Day 104 - Sunday
After breakfast, the 3 of us went for a morning stroll at a nearby canal early in the morning. This is the first time the 3 of us have ever gone for a morning walk and RK really did enjoy himself. He even tried out all the exercise equipment from the exercise corner. We went back home around 930am as it became hotter.
After our lunch (prepared by THL), we watch quite a few series of Heels to Wheels on M1Box. They even have a website at http://www.heels2wheels.tv/. The variety show features the visiting of various interesting spots in Taiwan. I manage to do a bit of work in the late afternoon with RK watching his favorite TV show.
I went for a run in the evening and had something light for dinner. I have lost about 4 kg some far since selling away our SUV and I have decided to keep at it. Another 8 KG to go and I would have hit my ideal weight. 加油!
Day 105 - 109 ~ Monday to Friday
The entire week was mostly spent catching up with my project work although I still managed to leave aside sometime to spent with RK. Coaching and managing RK's school work has inevitably consumed a huge chunk of my time during weekday afternoons.
We have most of our dinner at home during the weekdays with the exception of Friday which we went out to Westgate for dinner. We visited the Westgate Wonderland at Westgate and RK had a great time there, sweating himself out like nobody's business.
THL and I have started to spend more and more time play Slots Paradise and now even RK is using his own Facebook account to play the game. I think it is a healthy game so long it does not involve financial spending of any kind.
Transport Expenses:
Instead of hours collating the detailed transport expenses on a daily basis, I have decided to just announce the monthly expenditure on transportation on a month by month basis. I will be showing the figures for March in next week's update.
Weekly Afterthoughts:
This week have been tedious in the sense that I have had lots of work to catch up. I did manage to finish up what I needed to finish and still have spare time to spend with RK and our new found hobby - Playing Slots Paradise. LOL!
These days, expenses on transportation are at a minimum and hence I have decided not to spent the extra hours trying to tabulate every single cents spent. Unless there is an abnormally huge expenses, I will only share the figures once a month i.e. the last week of every month.
