These Few Days

Saturday the children had Chinese lesson and we had a hard time trying to get the boys to go to Harcourt Primary School. We helped the boys with their Work as the teacher was crazy enough to give 16 pages worth plus 2 pages of xi2 zi4. However, with our help they were able to finish most on time. Joe and I told them we would change their class but ended up the school is combining 2 classes to one class and their teacher still teaching the class. Somehow after lesson the boys were really okay. They probably did all those "stunts to get our attention. After lesson, we went out to the lease-free park so that JJ could runabout. He sure had a lot of fun but we kinda tired with all the walking.

On Sunday, we woke up early and wanted to go outdoor. We decided to go to National Park. We took a scenic drive and finally reached BALD HILL whereby people were doing para gliding. Many people were there too watching people junped off the cliff with a parachute. Must be fun but it was too expensive to try it. We had hotdogs buns and ice pops. AFter that we drove to Garie beach. The beach was usually very beautiful but this time we found the beach was filled with seaweeds and blue bottle jelly fish that were being washed up by the waves. There were many seagulls and bird shit on the beach. Maybe it's the time of the year whereby the currents would bring in these unwanted things from afar.

My mum in law was not able to enjoy herself as usual. She always like to be a loner and so she sat down on the beach by herself while we went to play with sand and water. In fact she had been so nasty these few days and not once but many times said that she regretted coming over etc. I wondered if she is able to let herself loose and make others happy. She said she has been tolerating us but it seems to be the other way round. Wondered if she is suffering from depression / hormone imbalance and always thinks in a negative mode. She was a bit like me when I had the post natal blues whereby I only could see there was no way out and everything seems to go against me at that time. That was the cause of hormone imbalance. Yesterday night we asked Wei Yi to go out as I think she was at the receiving end of my Mum in law negative energy outbursts so today I sent her to the bus stop to take bus 400. She should enjoy the ride to airport and Bondi Junction I think.

Okay that's all. Children were surprisely well behaved and wonderful these few days. Maybe I was diverting my energy handling my mil. HA! :>
