Thriving in Old Age: Simple Care Strategies

When we were kids, it wasn’t easy for our parents to watch us grow up and transition into independent adults. Now watching our parents grow older is never easy too, especially when memory begins to fade. Over the past few years, particularly since the COVID period, I started noticing small changes in my mum as time goes by. At first, it was forgetfulness. Then it began to hit hard with repetition, confusion, and moments that felt unfamiliar. Brought them out to the mall for a walk.

Like many families, we’re learning as we go, figuring out how to support both of them in ways that are practical, sustainable, and compassionate.

Water Babe

I want to call myself a Water Babe.  I love swimming.  I learn swimming since Primary school. Wow... That's a long time.  I love water!  I do scare of water too.  Bcos tsunami can kill lotsa ppl.  Well... I still love water and e deep blue sea.

Last nite, I went swimming straight after work.  Told myself that I shall swim 8 laps.  1 lap is to and fro the pool. I have did it.  And is definitely an encouragement for myself as I will continue to swim for leisure n slimming dw.  My swimming days shall be every Tue, Thurs and Sat.  But my Sat can b either swim or gym or both.  For mi to choose.  Cos I did both once before in a day.  Well... That's when my guy has no time for mi or when we quarrel.  Spendin my time gym n swim in a day is beta than spendin time at hm do nth bt sms him non stop to scold him (when we quarrel).  I think as my age grows, I can think maturely.

He has not accompany mi for the past 5 days as he is busy with renovation works of their company's new office, which expected to complete in a month's time.  Well, I asked him if next wk is gonna b e same like this wk, he said he tried but no promise that he can accompany mi like as usual.  What can I say?  Work.  Not flirting outside.  I c with my own eyes today.

The moment I meet him, he is talking on e phone, instructing his men what to do and phone calls keep coming.  He is like, needed every time.  Haiz... That pathetic pay but work and responsibility so much.  Overloaded + underpaid.

For me, I m just sian.  Nv c him.  Everyday go hm straight after work.  Nv go anywhere.  

Please come to an end soon.  That will be next month, I hope!  Meanwhile, I shall do what I suppose to.  And that's is to b a understanding and independent gf.  Find my own activities, like swimming. Hahahah...
