I am still on a rest day. Yesterday, I got a call from my office mate and she was asking me to give her my Sunday off. I asked how much she needs it and she said that she actually requested for it but was not given to her. According to her, they have a family gathering that day. So, I agreed for a swap. I told my husband about it and he told me that it is a Valentine’s Day and Chinese New Year! Oh, I totally forgot about it. I really do not go to office on Valentine’s Day. So, what now? Nah… I could not take it back. I should have looked at the date first before I have decided to give it away!

The vegetable trick

Feb
I am into cooking this day. That is why I am glad that I am always at the 12 to 9 shift. Anyways, my son’s favorite is red rice. It is actually red sauce. His favorite is Del Monte Afritada sauce. do we just heat it? Nah! Of course, we have to cook afritada. Simple, I just have to boil some chicken with a dash of salt. When the chicken is cooked already, that is the time that I will pour the instant Afritada sauce. Yesterday, I did it with carrots and green beans. He loved it. Today, I added broccoli and cabbage. Guess what? He could tell that the taste was different! Maybe it is because of the cabbage? Anyways, he still ate his red rice. There was some veggie trick. That gave me the idea of more tricks to come! 
Job obsessed

It is my rest day! Supposedly I should be at peace and enjoy the day. But why my mind is still in the office? All the tasks that I left and I have done already which I could not change anymore still haunt me.Yes, I think I am obsessed with my job. This is not a good thing. There is something wrong. Or, maybe, I am not happy anymore?
I have always been hard on myself. Maybe I am a perfectionist? I could not forgive myself for any mistake. Since I want to be perfect, I want others to be perfect too. I see myself and I see others too. Now that is worse. I am getting worse each day. And it only affects my performance. I hope I could just be as apathetic as others are. Here I go again.
I prayed hard last night. I pray that I will learn just to focus on myself and on what I do. That way, I would be able to concentrate on my job better and would commit less error or none at all.
