Fidelia's Friday - A typical day in my life!

My day starts the moment Leah wakes up in the morning around 8am. Then, I will feed her and if I am lucky, she will go to sleep again. If not, Duncan and I will play and talk to her for a while on the bed. She can be very talkative. So cute!

Around 10am Lauren will wake up. While waiting for her to wake up, I will have my breakfast. Usually cereal with milk. 

Laundry is also done in the morning. This takes about 1 hour! The reason is because our washing machine is semi-auto so it takes more work than fully-auto ones. Not complaining as long as I am not doing the laundry by hands.

When it's 11am, it's time for the children to go for a bath. Duncan usually bathe Leah and I will dress her up. After Leah's turn, it's Lauren's. I will take care of Lauren after that. Comb and tie her hair! Lauren knows how to dress herself up. She'll say "I can do it all by myself!"

Lunch will be around 1pm. Thinking what to cook for lunch is always difficult. So, sometimes we just have sandwiches! 

Nowadays we will go for a walk on the field around 6pm. Lauren and her daddy will play football while I just walk around with Leah. The walk usually ends up with Lauren playing the slides and see-saw. We love our evening walk!

Dinner time will be around 7pm or 7.30pm. Duncan and I will take turn to cook dinner. We usually have "Sweet and Sour Fish" or soup.

At 8pm until 10pm, Duncan will have his class and I will take care of the children. Put Leah to bed around 9pm and watch television with Lauren.

10pm sharp is our CSI: Miami! It is a MUST-WATCH action series! One of our favourite action series called NCIS:LA that starts at 11pm just finished last night. So, we need to find something new to watch!

I normally go to bed first, then closely followed by Duncan. That would be around 12am or earlier. Meanwhile, Lauren will fall asleep on the couch and Duncan will carry her to her bedroom before he goes to bed!

I love my typical day! It is good to have a routine. It kinda make things a lot easier to handle and plan.

So, how is your typical day? Is it a hectic or a relaxing one? Mine certainly looks not so hectic but let me tell ya, it can be sometimes! 

CSI: Miami; Caffox

"Callow" - immature and inexperienced

"Cloy" - sicken by glutting with sweetness or pleasure

CSI: Miami

What would a week be without a dosage of CSI? (Crime Scene Investigation) For me it would be like a webpage that doesn't load up completely. 

Here in Malaysia we are currently treated to three CSI's per week including Miami, New York and Las Vegas. My personal favourite is CSI: Miami starring David Caruso, who plays the ever-cool Horatio Caine.

CSI is one of the few things in life I don't mind cloying myself with!

Why is CSI so attractive and riveting? In Malaysia, forensics is a small, relatively new and under-explored area of technology. It's hard to even analyse a fingerprint (as we found out, or didn't find out, after a forensics officer extracted a fingerprint from our house after we were robbed), let alone even possess the kind of sophisticated equipment or apt manpower which is demonstrated in CSI.

We all love to be amazed. We want to see something new, fresh, vibrant, cultivated. We get bored with the tedious, callow, monotone things. The CSI series shows us the intelligence of modern technology and science, the stuff that makes me stare open-mouthed at the TV screen.

Caffox

I can't go through this A-Z without sharing with you the best 'C' word I have ever come across. And that would be 'caffox.'

Caffox is my liberator. The sight and sound of this word brings such a relief, and that's before I've even taken the tablet. It frees me from the bondage of headaches within the hour, with absolutely no side-effects at all. If you haven't read about my battle with headaches , you really should now!

Caffox is the most effective medication I've ever used for exterminating headaches. I'm beginning to wonder whether the fact that I've developed so much faith in it constitutes half the cure! I just know it's going to work - and it's never failed me in my time of need.

Thank you to the clever people who came up with the glorious caffox pill!!!

What can't you go without? What or who is your rescuer?

And which CSI program is your favourite? Who's your favourite character?
