I woke up early today, at around 715am on a Sunday.
I had to bring my mum to the eye doctor so that the correct measurements can be used to make her a pair of new spectacles. The reason was she just had a cataract operation and the old spectacles wasn't that useful as before.
During the waiting period, I managed to read today's paper.
I came across an article on Alec Baldwin speaking rudely to his kids on the mobile
phone and the paparazi was trying to take advantage of the remarks Alec made into big news knowing well that Alec is having custody proplem with Kim Bassinger. And being human, I guess I knew what a lot of pressure can do to you but I never thought I would do it to my kids.
Anyway, after spending three hours at the eye specialist, I came home.
I asked my mum to return to the house as I had to park my car in the parking lot.
After which I went for a haircut.
I came back home to lots of noise from the kids playing, my mum's nagging away about the nanny's attitude towards my younger daughter, my wife's nagging about the company's account status, tv blaring away etc.
I was trying to concentrate for some peace of mind when Kitty (my eldest daughter) approaced me to on the computer for her so that she can play the computer game. I got it on and return to my wife's discussion.
Then my youngest daughter, Li Lee came up to me and was calling away trying to tell me about her clothes dressing. Kitty called out to me asking to help her with the computer game. My mum was then nagging something else.
At this point, I guess I lost it. I shouted out at both my daughters to keep quiet and ask my mum to get away from the dining hall. My wife kept quiet knowing my temper.
After the whole ordeal, I fell guilty inside, just as I am sure that's what Alec was feeling at that moment. I guess being able to write this blog, it makes me feel
slightly better but the guilty feeling stays.
