7th April 2020. The last day at the office before #circuitbreaker kicks in. I packed the last of my work gear and say a little farewell to my desk and my studio. The 24-inch displays looked a little forlorn without their buddy, the 16-inch MacBook Pro. And the studio was deathly quiet, knowing we won’t be back till May. It was also quiet because it is soundproof lah.
But we all need to adjust to a new normal. Hopefully this passes soon and we can pick up the pieces of our lives again. And maybe give each other a hug and a handshake once more.
Till then, see you all from my home. It is a little crowded in my household at the moment. But it is a picture of calm orderliness. Pudding, our budgie, has never seen us home so much, and is chirping excitedly, as if asking us if we want to play.
I have one special needs firstborn who doesn’t have her Day Activity Centre to go to this month. One son who is starting a new course. One youngest daughter on HBL. And then the Wife who is working diligently at the desk I set up for her — my soulmate who lovingly and patiently put up with a husband who just hauled half his work gear home. And a very good helper who is taking good care of us.
There is some irritability, some nagging, some jostling for personal space. But there is also lots of love, joy and laughter under this roof.
Gosh, I hope we don’t strangle each other by Day Two.
