Bcos of COVID-19

All enrichment classes had been paused, including Lil Shauna's ice skating. On top of that, we are trying to heed the Government's advice to stay at home as much as possible. This also allows us to keep Daddy Lim accompany; he really needs to stay at home and stay healthy now.

At times like that, the parents have to think of ways to keep the children occupied or go crazy themselves. We had been thinking of getting a new game console after our Xbox One died many years back. Daddy Lim had wanted to buy PS5 that would be released at the end of the year but we CANNOT wait.

Zaky happily went shopping with me in JP and was constantly pleading me with his puppy eyes to buy the console right now.

He got his wishes.

Bcos of the virus, the WWF official rides had been called off. It had been difficult to ride without the WWF and Daddy Lim. The fact that the facilities (including gym and basketball court) at Centris had been closed made things worse.

Fortunately we had been riding for awhile to make cyclist friends. On Saturday, I rode with a group.

On Sunday morning, I rode with another.

There were a couple of jios for RI too but I am too nice and will keep my next RI to do with Daddy Lim. Truth be told, who would 没事 go do RI? Apparently not me but many other cyclists would.

The weekends passed peacefully. The kids managed their online Maths lesson fine. They probably found it to be a novelty and both appeared to concentrate hard. I even sneaked a cat nap. Hoho.

They are also making very good use of the PS4.

You can tell that Daddy Lim is recovering well right? So well that he spent the entire day on the PS4 y'day, like 7.30am to 5pm, more hardworking than the kids and me.

On Sunday, despite the virus, the Stingray clinic session that I signed Zaky up was still ongoing. I sent Lil Shauna to the rink in the morning for some ice time. The ice was so empty. All lessons for under 18 were canceled and there wasn't much public crowd as well.

She made great progress on her camel spin and Axel jump. We are both very pleased. Hehehe.

In the afternoon, I drove the kids to Kallang Wave mall for the Stingray clinic session. Zaky ended up as the only student and had all 1.5hour to himself. He did a great job, alongside Google map to navigate our way to the mall. Though I didn't lose my way to Kallang mall, we got lost in the mall itself bcos many of the entries/ exits were barricaded off.

It was a freaking hot afternoon.

Not only was the clinic session empty, the entire Splash and Surf pool was empty. The session was really tiring and the boy had a great time lazing in the lazy river after that.

I have started working from home starting this week to indefinitely. Monday feels a little lazy and it got better subsequently. There are many things to combat though: the constant food temptation, the bed calling especially when Daddy Lim takes a nap and the heat. The freaking heat! It is freaking hot, I was perspiring like mad. I am melting...

I still drive the kids to school in the mornings and if I gain anything, it is the confidence to drive out of bo bianness. Oh, I jog in the park on Monday and skipped on Tuesday too bcos there is time before starting work. But still, it is not enough to burn the amount of food that I eat. T.T

Let's all persevere and fight this virus together. Yay!
