Mothers working as civil servants might actually apply a 5 year leave to take care of their children. Now isn't that a great thing.

Well for women like me who had quit their job completely and concentrating on free-lancing is another different story. As Jilus goes to school in the morning, I actually rush to get all my appointments done before I fetch him from his Mandarin tuition at 2pm. After that I spend some time with him at home of which of course I persistently force him to go to sleep. This would be only 1 or 2 hours. Else he would not be able to sleep at night.
While he sleeps, I do some work at home. Like filing, paper work, accounts on the investment, paying bills online and preparing for the next morning mad rush. And of course when he wakes up, we go for evening walks to the playground.
By the time we reach home, the rice is cooked and chicken is thawed. Cook up some simple meal and by the time all the cleaning is done, it is time for the little one to sleep.
Well we have not gone into a permanent routine. It still deviates here and there. But I do try my best to put him to sleep early nowadays.
When he goes to sleep I am on the Net for a few hours blogging and reading blogs. I watch a little bit of tv, if there is any nice programmes to watch. When Jerro is here we would hang out at the gazebo for a while and talk.
That is my schedule for now. I do need to do more though. But for the time being, I am pretty swamped.
However I am not sure what will be my routine when Jerro comes into out lives. That will be next year. We will see how it goes...
