The silence!

Written by , Posted in My Thoughts, Comments: leave another one

Hello Friends!

Yes, the silence.  I went MIA for some days.  I have been sick with fever.  The bolts in my body were a bit lose and needed some adjusting.  One moment I was feeling cold and shivering like a leaf and the next moment I was feeling hot hot hot.

I completed my medication on Sunday, every screw is tightened now and I’m back to my old self.

The last time I fell sick was back last year when I was working.  I hate getting sick, I guess everyone does.  Its worse though when you are a working mom raising a toddler.

I used to panic when a doctor orders me to take three days bed rest.  It worried me because I would rather stay a day or two at home when I am very sick and have as many days at home with Muli when she is sick.  There is so much pressure for working moms.  Let me not go deep in to working mom issues.  I am sure every mom can write a book about striking a balance between work, family and life in general.

So this time around I did not rush my body.  I had no deadlines to worry about.  Everything could just wait until I am better.  And it was a ‘wow’ feeling to wake up not because I have to, but merely because I was tired of sleeping.

The other news are, we will be going back to SA next month.  Only few weeks left before we bid farewell to France.  It is so exciting seeing our family wrapping things up in France.  We are still having the best of our time here, but home is where our heart is.

Hope your past days were filled with lots of sunshine and smiles.

Take care,
Nez
