Tears of relief

I'm shedding tears again. This time it is tears of relief.

My best friend doesn't read my blog but she suddenly called me this morning to tell me that she will send my kids to school afterall.

When I asked her 2 days ago, she wasn't sure if she had to attend a conference call at 6am with her US headquaters.

It's no wonder she's my best friend. I mean she could sense my distress even from where she is right now. It's a really timely call. I was so overcome with relief and joy that the floodgate of tears was released again.

It's definitely PMS!

** True enough, when I picked YK from school, the first thing he did was apologise for making me angry. Then he said, "Go for your trip lah. It's ok." **

I am glad to know that things are turning out fine. It's tough on you being a single mother. Having to juggle work, life and family.

Maybe you have "forced" yourself to be a superwoman for too long and the stress has been silently accumulating without your realizing.

At the end of the day, it's all about where your priorities lie. With that awareness and self-knowledge in your, will help you channel your life the way you want it.

Have a good one in Taipei. Hope it turns out to be a fruitful trip.

Thanks Water. You've a point there. I need the boys to feel loved and taken care of, yet I depend on the business for income. So it's hard to juggle both so well. But the kids' behavoir affects me alot. If they're not happy, I'm miserable too.
