At home, we have agreed to maintain a free fleeting kind of relationship. We dislike friction. We despise arguments (the bad kind). We are never at ease when we know that there is a can of worms open that needs to be cleaned up. This goes for the three of us. Myself, Judy and Jakjak.
There will always be a bit of fighting and irking here and there, we are dealing with a toddler after all. But these things are a given, and due space should be reserved for disciplining and righting wrongs. In fact, we often end up arguing with raised voices over a couple of pre-defined reasons: meals with Jakjak, baths with Jakjak, studying with Jakjak and cleaning up the mess with Jakjak. Other than that, we feel that we're on top of things. Sort of.
To keep a balance between the stresses of everyday life and the serene calm of relaxation with a taste of mint on the side, we like to keep ourselves occupied with different things. There are days that we dine out. There are days that we pig out. There are days that we shop and empty our pockets (yes, it happens). There are even days that we simply decide to let the day go by, being as lazy as a hamster at home. One thing that we never forget to do, is laugh and have fun. One minute or one hour or more. Laughter cures our blues.
