It is a day for surprises. I like surprises, at least the ones I am prepared for. The trick is to learn how to enjoy those that spring out unannounced, the real surprises.
I had a doctor's appointment today and dropped off my son at a friend's place to catch the school bus. A few minutes later, I had to go back and pick him up as buses were cancelled, so I guess I had him all to myself all day. Now that's a good thing: as a full time working mother juggling two Master's courses and work related paperwork crying out for attention, deadlines have taken over my life. Things dont get easier, I just bet more competent at juggling multiple items. Some days I wonder lying in bed at 5 am why 10 pm is so far away, as that's the time I get back home from university. So I was quite looking forward to a day to myself with no one else at home, a rare luxury for my timebound self.
Well, anichcha. He is off to high school soon. What a blessing to have my able bodied child with me the whole day when last year was wrought with pain and indecision.
So appointment done, emails answered, we are at breakfast and I meet my MotorCycle brother for the first time.
