Finally after like donkey years, Dad (my ex father-in-law) landed yesterday. I cant describe the feelings i went thru seeing him, but it was a myraid of emotions. Surprisingly, i felt peaceful and "shant". Nows that is a word I will never associate with me but I am feeling that, even now. Nothing like elders in the house to make you feel calm and collected. And he makes me feel very much loved and that I am his family, even after 12 years of divorce from his son. I dont know how but he does.
Well it will be a busy and short visit. He's leaving on Monday back to Delhi. Sheens came running home from Chao Chu Kang and we took him to Hainanese Chicken Rice last nite. Nisha took the day off from school today and to bring him on the duck tour and I'm taking him to little india for lunch. He's vegetarian today and hence only indian food will do. Tomorrow, sheens taking him to the esplanade and Samarkand for butter chicken. Sheens totally loves the butter chicken there must be from the NUS days! Sat is shopping at Mustafa (God!) and Sunday is still undecided.
My cabinets was to be installed today (thought could count on dad to supervise it) only to have it postponed till Saturday as the water pipes are leaking. Couldn't the contractor tell me earlier so that I could get the pipes fixed earlier. My renovation is really doomed and jinxed. One problem after the other. Sigh!
Well here's to another hectic weekend! :)
