Since Chinese New Year’s Eve which hit us on 18th February 2015, I feel like life has been on a go! go! go! loop that I can’t get out of. This introvert is feeling overstimulated and wishing there was a cave she can disappear into for a week!
Meeting relatives, having meals with them, and then meetups with friend after friend/s happened almost back-to-back during the Chinese New Year period. Then before I could recover, we celebrated our 5th child’s 10th birthday which was followed by a last minute plan to celebrate our 20th wedding anniversary at Club Med Bintan with the kids. Yeah, we haven’t reached the stage where we are comfortable leaving the children by themselves – yet! Upon coming back we celebrated our anniversary alone by going off for a quiet dinner by ourselves. 😉 But it was immediately followed up by being out the whole of the next day as it was the “baby’s” 6th birthday!
Don’t get me wrong. I had fun and I loved meeting up and getting together with friends whom we seldom get to see and of course, being with the kids at Club Med, and then celebrating their birthdays. But seriously, I am drained! This introvert’s social tank is empty! It doesn’t help that my love language is not touch. But meanwhile, the children continue to want to have interactions with me and be hugged and kissed!
I’ll live. I think. 😉
But wait….another set of birthday celebrations starts today (one in April, two in May and one last one in June!) 😀
