Today i have to be very very patient with my maid Yee Yee. She is not performing to my expectation. No initiative, no cleanliness sense, untidy and takes a long time to wash up in the morning and at night. Should i continue to renew her contract? I am still brooding over it. Getting a new untrained maid is another gamble. Headache.  Just resolved another smelly problem. Mum has a cloth that wipes her bum and it smells in the toilet because she doesn't wash it after use. I constantly checked on her cloth and washed it for her.  There seems to be multiple infections on my legs and i am puzzled over it. Tried not to go swimming in case i dirty the water. Thankful di brought mum for the swim. It is also an excuse to get di to exercise as well.  January is going to have a lot of expenditure, considering there is annual insurance premium, di's mattress, london's package, angbao's money, Will think through my expenditure and curb it.

December is a good bonding time for me and mum. Mum loves to walk in the water, so whenever i have the time, i will bring her to the pool.  Very comforted that di helps me to take care of mum. With both of us, and yee yee, we are living in harmony in this nice place called our home.  Mum seems to be happier staying with Di. Gone were the days when there was tension between di and mum. No more unpleasant cigarette smell, no more majong sound that mum couldn't  sleep.  I took comfort that didi was back home, reunited with us.  Di made a point to take lunch with mum daily. This is something i am very grateful.  Now i started with mum on  some colouring project. And i told her upon completion of the colouring, i will laminate it for her to give it as a gift to her children. This motivates her alot.  Today i brought mum to buy mattress for di. Thankful for the simple luxuries of spending time together.
