All quiet amid the tension. Mom has been staying with us since Ni's family vacation - it seems like life as usual but there are many differences. We can't go out for an early Sunday breakfast after my long run, we sleep with our bedroom door open in case mom calls out, Sam has to deal with her ablutions and prepare her meals, and answer her many questions, and take her instructions (something Mom developed this stay-over)*.
I work in the office, all quiet except for the cat. And later, news that Ee Pang's second daughter did away with herself and her 3-month old baby. They suspect post-partum blues. One must not judge but looking at a recent photo of Pang's family - he looks lost and distracted, a little pudgy and ill at ease as though life caught up with him and passed him by.
My forearm is not 100 % but squash is a good release after a day at work.
