11 Jan 2018

So this is the actually 11 Jan post for 11 Jan. Amidst dozes and wakes, I finally open my eyes feeling satisfied of a good night sleep. And it was 1013. This is the latest that I can ever remember for a very long time. Actually except for those times confined to bed, I dont remember getting up at this late hour. Still, I was very relieved that I felt better and the feverishness was not present.

Hadn't been up to much. I thought it important to update a day by day account, as it is a way of keeping track of myself. The good thing about writing is, for me, it requires a quite reflection, and placidity. I really need to be more on task with the book I hope to pen. My outstanding things: columbarium, dad's anniversary is next Monday. Had intended to do so together with the cemetery visit. But J only had time for cemetery and that is more inaccessible for me. I could go with S1, B2 etc....but somehow I think I will try to go on my own tomorrow. Had intended today, but the cold and dull weather does not encourage one to step out. Weather has been far colder than normal. We are actually registering 23- 26 degrees in the day which is cold by my standard. I dont mind spending a quiet lazy day at home. Need to come to quietude in order to write anyway.

Sometimes I come up with the idea of venturing here and there especially to see sunrise and sunset. Whilst I do like my own company, somehow driving to unfamiliar sites is not so inviting. Its the same with travelling. So, Newton's law of inertia still holds.

B is now on my lap whilst I am typing all these in bed. T also will snuggle up when I am down for a meal. The affections of the pussies are deeply imprinted. I admit if not for them, I dont think I will have sufficient will power to keep up to be as well as possible. Yesterday, in the moment of unwellness, I did want to let go.

I need to find strength within my soul. Yea, when the Lord strengthen the inward man with might by the Holy Spirit, I can do all things through Christ strengtheneth me. Its been a long time since I have felt that. Apostle Paul said, when i am weak, then am I strong. I must get down to writing. Its 430pm now. May update again in the night.

update: Managed my walk and exercise in the drizzle. Feeling better than yesterday. Less burning and no feverishness.
