The Sunday Currently vol. 9

 Recapping the week 

I had a super busy week running errands. Even though it wasn't my usual job, I ended up picking up the kids from school a few times just to hang out with them. 

There was this school event where they could bring their smartphones and iPads. I was a bit worried at first, especially because my youngest keeps losing his water tumbler like four times already. But he really wanted me to trust him, so I gave in with a few reminders. My older one is pretty responsible, and he even sent me snaps and videos from school, showing how much fun he was having. Luckily, their gadgets were still in one piece when I picked them up, and they excitedly shared all the school event stories with me.

Today, we swung by National Bookstore to grab some stuff for their Drawing class. Dime loves to draw, so we thought we'd keep up with their classes. Uno is sticking with karate on weekends, and their classes are starting again next week because of a team competition.

CURRENTLY 

Reading

I'm reviewing the insurance policies I purchased for the kids through Singlife and setting a college fund goal for them in a few years. I also bought an HMO package for myself, which I completely forgot to renew last year.

Writing

Tracking expenses for October, and nearly halfway through planning the month. I'm in the process of budgeting for our other insurance policies. It's crucial to plan it out carefully to ensure long-term benefits.

Listening

Currently playing "Everybody Wants to Rule the World" by Tears for Fears, and it seems I got stuck on repeat because my eldest son absolutely loves the song.

Thinking

I've been thinking about ways to increase my retirement savings. I'm giving serious thought to getting into stock vesting.

Smelling

Enjoying the fragrance of strawberries and champagne lingering in the air, thanks to the room and linen spray I used generously.

Wishing

I know winning the lottery is just a wishful thought. It's funny how I keep wishing for it, even though I never actually buy a ticket. 😄 But that dream just keeps popping up in my mind.

Hoping

Looking forward to a relaxing family vacation, either in Tokyo or Seoul.

Wearing

Sporting a loose Luffy One Piece shirt paired with pastel green boxers.

Loving

Adoring my little ones, I'd do anything for them in a heartbeat. I'd love to maintain good health so that I can continue caring for them while guiding them through life's trials and hardships. It's funny; Dime even granted me permission to hit the gym, but I'm simply not at ease going there alone. 😄

Wanting

For a firm resolve, I find myself trapped within a cosmic whirlpool of indecision.

Needing

Some peace of mind amid all the chaos. It feels like certain choices haven't been leading anywhere, and it's been a source of disappointment. Should I brush it off or confront it? There are so many factors to weigh, and they often disrupt my inner peace.

Feeling

with an overwhelming load of responsibilities resting on my shoulders. Don't get me wrong; my kiddos are the source of my happiness. It's just that there are certain aspects, unrelated to the kids, that don't quite align with my vision, dreams and goals.

Anxiety and despair, have been distant echoes, once constant shadows, have drifted away with the sands of time. Still, caught in a loop, making the same choices repeatedly. It no longer feels like the right path.
