Housework

I need to go away for a while. But I can't. If I go away, I will be worry about Daniel and my Mom. It's a cycle, a chain action. And it is wrong. I am seeking the solution. I am so tired.

Today I have the chance to be away for weekend. I turn down my Mom's request to return for the weekend. So I can stay at home to baby sitting Daniel. But I prefer to take Daniel out with us, in stead of staying with Daniel's Mom. However, she won't be at home coz she volunteers to help out on new seaweed shop during this weekend. I mean, she works as PT which is worse enough; and now, free of charge. But how about the housework? How about Daniel? How about Mark? Plus, there is another baby on the way. She can't do any housework; no cold water, no heavy lift, no running in the house. But she can work in seaweed shop and do all the things which breaks her role applying in this house. She was told to work from 10AM to 2PM, but she seldom make it home by 6PM. She is like an in-house guest, not a family member. She picks up those guests' bad habit - frequently loose the doorkey.

Unlike Western life, a married woman has many things to do in the house and she will do it alone. My Mom and I try to make Joan fit into our family. But her family background is on the other side of gap which we never think we will have this day. This weekend, Joan's parents came over to teach my Mom how to cook. DC and I were angry but we couldn't do anything which would fail my parents' respect. It's all those idiot roles. My Mom's cooking is perfect healthy, how can they step in? Joan is used to eat junk food, she can't appriciate the beauty of nature food. We only can hope she can really taste it one day, hopefuly very soon.

However, I still want to stay out for weekend. No matter how much it takes. We are going to TPE for business and the wedding proposal for Chris and Mia is set by this Sunday - Easter. My parents will take Daniel up to TPE, so I don't need to worry about him. I gonna find some ways to teach Joan how to be a Mom. Otherwise, I can't really enjoy when I am away from Daniel. Let Daniel stays with Joan a day, it took me 3 days to change his bad habit. I can't believe I have teach Daniel about his manner and Joan spoils him or does more worse things. OK, enough for today. I gonna check on Daniel again. He woke up from nightmare and Joan sleeps beside Daniel; but she didn't even wake up at all. It took me a while to calm down Daniel.
