BYL And Ah Don Random Thoughts: I AM ALONE BY MYSELF

Ah Don was invited by Jason to his new house at new Jersey. The house needs touching work. So Ah Don is there to "PAINT" the house ... Look like he is an expensive painter !! Definitely, he is going to share his good time with Jason & Chris together with 3 lovely grand kids there. Have not seen them since last X'mas! I reminded him we are no longer young! He has to do the work within his limit to prevent over strain himself and suffer later on !

Ah Don left on Thursday evening. The weather wasn't nice but he made it to Philadephia with 20 minutes delay. He will be back on Monday. I am all by myself for 5D/4 N with my 2 birds!:(:(:(

Today is Saturday and it's 10:30 AM!!!!!! Rightfully, we should be shopping around from one garage sale to another. !!! Without Ah Don around, I am unable to do that. Poor me!... I still lack the confidence & courage to drive at the wrong side of the road here !!!

I planed to make full use of this weekend to tidy my books and stuff so that I can list them in Half.com or ebay..... hmmmm but I was hooked up in the facebook and started chatting with one SGI member who is back to Malaysia.

Well.... this is exactly one of those unforeseen situation that could happen where we could be caught or out of hand when we are not disciplined enough or so not set up our priority clearly...... Sometime, we could be in a situation where it is difficult to say "NO"

**************************************************

Now, I am back here... I want to talk about about my 2 birds....As any weekend morning, I took the cage out to the patio... opened the cage door.... sat there to watch them with my breakfast yogurt & banana in hand........I waited and waited, time passed by and none of them made any attempt to leave the cage !! I got impatient... put my hand in... then "Putera" came out right away,

"puteri" was unable to find its way to fly out. She remained in the cage running about trying to get herself out between the grills of the cage not knowing the door is wide open for her !Obviously, "putera" is smarter than "Puteri".... Poor "Puteri" was screaming for "Putera" to come back !!! "Putera" stayed out for a while and came back to the cage. Now they are both in the cage again.....Freedom is not what they want I guess !

Talking about "Freedom" ... It reminds me of my conversation with my lady boss yesterday in the office.

I said " Yo yo yo... so good.... without Don around..... I have full freedom to do whatever I want for this weekend ! "

Immediately, she asked me doubtfully " What can you do with your freedom, Margot ???"

OMG! I have not thought about it !! What a good question !!!...... That's right ! What can I do ?? I have no other friends, I can't drive, I don't even know where to go !!! so what's the freedom for ??? Oh dear, I am just like "putera" and "Puteri" have to remain indoors !! :(:(:(:(:( Sad!

This is definitely a "WAKE UP CALL " for me..... I need to look for the solution.

Now , I have to ask myself seriously..."Where can I go ? What could I do if something happen to Ah Don??? OMG! Since when have I became such a "helpless" person ?

Anyway, I am not going to allow this negative and fearful situation to affect my precious weekend alone... I need to shut down this thinking right now !!!

I would kick and promise myself to be sociable again..... I need friends.... I have to reconnect with SGI members again!!

Hmmmm, the best way to get away the thinking ..... I turn to my pic collection.
