It's been almost 2 weeks into my life as Mrs Tan. Adjusting to sleeping with someone beside me is easier than I imagined. I thought that for awhile I might not get used to sharing a bed with Hun, but it ends up that I am so tired at the end of each day that I just slept right through!
Life has been in overdrive mode for me since we came back from our honeymoon. There seems to be an unending list of things to do! Each day I reach home, I'm busy packing or unpacking, washing clothes, cleaning the house....until bedtime. Up till now I do not understand how come there's just so many things to do in our simple house when there's just the 2 of us and we don't cook often! I don't even find and interest in watching TV anymore! (ok lah..partly cos no cable tv yet...so I can't watch all my favourite programmes...*sobsob*) Up till now I'm stil puzzled...there's also an unending list of things to buy! Never imagined setting up a home takes so much effort!
Thank God that Hun is a very neat person and he happily undertakes the task of packing new things that we bought into the shelves...in an organized and sensible manner. He's a good organizer and I really appreciate that. He also helps to fold the clothes after I've taken them out from the dryer or the bamboo poles. I kind of enjoy ironing now...so I'll do the ironing and Hun will do the folding (which I don't like to do). He folds clothes really nicely too! Helps me keep my portion of the wardrobe neat :)
Right now we don't open our windows as we are seldom home most part of the day. Thankfully our house is not dusty so cleaning up is not such a big issue yet. But I still like to keep my bedroom clean so at least every other day I'll make sure the bedroom is mopped. Tomorrow's saturday and I'm looking forward to it...I love the morning sun cos I can hang my clothes out to dry and it has the nice sun-dried smell :)
"It's time to wash the bedsheet, pillowcases and quilt cover tomorrow...may need to wash in 2 batches in the morning..which means I'll need to wash the clothings tonight. Maybe use the dryer cos I'll need the bamboo tomorrow morning...if possible I wanna wash the floor mats too..." These are the things going through my head day and night since I started staying at my own home...I find myself planning what I need to do the next day...like what time I'll need to wake so I can bathe before Hun and prepare our breakfast...many things...
Hun tells me he doesn't need me to prepare breakfast for him, he can always buy outside. But maybe it's just be...a self-given obligation to make sure there's nice breakfast ready from my husband, and also a time where we can make it a point to sit down together to eat. In retrospect, I'm amused at how the set of value system in me has propelled certain actions which I didn't imagine I'm capable of.
Well, all I can say for now is that marriage has made me a little bit more disciplined and hardworking around the house. But it's just been 2 weeks...let's see when the Cable TV is up...and I have access to my favourtie programmes once again...will I still be so disciplined...haha...
All in all, to summarize, marriage has been great so far :) except that I do miss my silly little Fusuke. Will get to see him tonight! yeah!!
Entering a new phase...
Almost 2 weeks....
