Being Blur is Contagious

This morning, Dominic sent the kids to school. When he gets home, he said 'I am so blurred. I forgot about the girl until I was outside the school compound. I only realised I forgot to drop her off until after I leave the school. I have to drive to the school again to drop her'. How blur can that be.

Then, I saw all the FB postings wishing Happy Mid-Autumn Festival. I was telling myself aren't these people a bit slow. The festival was on Tuesday and today is Thursday. Then I checked the calendar and found out it is today! And on Tuesday, I was happily telling everyone it is the festival. We finished eating the mooncake, finished burning the candles and lantern. Duh....I have to go and buy some mooncake for today. Another blur sotong....me.

Past few days have been eventful. We have a burst pipe in front of the house. The water pressure was too low to fill the tank. We have to conserve water until someone fixed the pipe. And we were cutting it really really close. The tank was empty by 4pm. We could not flush the toilet and there was definitely no water for shower. The workers fixed the problem at 5pm. We are not allowed to switch on the water until 11pm. The glue needs time to dry. So, what did we do?? We went to the club for a swim, had our shower there, go out for dinner, send Lucas to his drum lesson, pick up our laundry on the way home. By the time we get home and tuck the kids to bed, it was 10pm. We switched on the water and flush all the toilets....lol

And today, we had an uninvited guest. A snake!! There was a black snake in the garden. I called the guard. By the time the guard arrived, the snake already found a place to hide, underneath the neighbour's concrete backyard. I hope the snake has moved far far away. Isn't it a good omen if a snake comes to visit, or no?
