MCO

Everywhere in the world now, we have all countries having their own kind of MCO, be it called state of emergency, lockdown, restriction of movement, circuit breaker, etc. Where else, everyone also has their own interpretation for it, where some really do it responsibly, some trying to challenge the rules, some flouting the rules, etc.

For me, I try to do my due diligence. Even though I know it's tough handling LOs despite having to WFH, and even though I'm being spared from houseworks, I'm still struggling with the insufficient time, lack of sleep and even temperamental challenge.

Still now and then, there seems to be more time to scroll through my FB compared to non-MCO time. How irony. But, still did not manage to do any better, than extra fingers exercise.

These are the times you see some people doing extra stuff that they don't usually do, aa they have more time on hand now, but of course it may not apply to all. Some whiping up delicious meals, some spending more time with kids, some catching up more dramas, some doing more (net) surfing, some losses more hair (due to chaos in household), while some still busy at work due to their involvement in essential business needs.

This caught me wondering, what would dad do, if he's around during this MCO. Had he been living alone, I'll be worried whether he manage to stock up food, whether he has enough face masks to use, how to reschedule his doctor appointments, what happened if he had any accident at home (but lucky he had good neighbours). However, had he been well amd healthy, I can imagine him telling me back, all is good, he had been following up on the news, and telling me to take care as well. So, for once, I'm actually thankful that he doesn't need to go through this. As I'm sure we will all be nervous, thinking of him staying by himself throughout the whole MCO. 

Hope all of us can get through this MCO safe and healthy.
