I just wanted to hide

Last week had been crazy. I was in a funk the whole week. Stuffing my face with chocolates didn't help lighten up my mood. I was tired, cranky and generally miserable. It could have been PMS but things at home didn't help as well.

~ EJ had a bad cough at the start of the week last week. It ruined his sleeping pattern the rest of the week which in turn ruined my own routine.

~ He also stopped going to school. He said he didn't want to go to school "anymore". We tried all sorts of bribe to make him go back to school but he would cry and say "I don't want to go to school anymore." At the end hubby and I conceded, after all he is only 2 years old. We didn't want him to develop a phobia of school or something. Although the school term is ending on the 12th of this month, I couldn't help but think "there goes the rest of his school fees and school deposit, what a waste!" Note to self: understand the school's unbendable policy first regarding refundable and non-refundable deposits before enrolling son again.

~ Our internet connection was and still is a challenge. It's on and off. Sometimes it works fine and sometimes I have to pray to make it work. I don't think it was this bad last year. But hubby said it was. I have to accept that living at the 37th floor has its disadvantages and a bad internet connection is one of them.

~ I didn't get to exercise as much as I want to. EJ had been a tad demanding.

This week started okay. EJ is better now. No more coughing in the middle of the night. And I am also feeling better and I am getting my much needed exercise.

i do understand in a way what you're feeling. i have been in a funk too. after my vacation, i just don't feel like doing anything. i hope things will get better on your side.

i hope things are better now, josiet.

my girl does the same thing. one day she doesn't wanna go to achool, the next day she's okay with it. i also don't force her to go to school. when she says she doesn't want to go to school, i don't send her too.

her only advantage is she has a brother that goes to school regularly so she is encouraged sometimes.

anyway, like you said, ej is only 2 years old and is sick. he might change his mind when he gets better.
