And then... chicken pox

After three weeks of winter break, a few weeks of school in between but too short to get any routines out of it, a week of Tet holidays and Monday finally brought kids back to school again. Then yesterday morning Keisuke left for a two week Vipasana meditation retreat in northern Thailand - of course completely disconnected from the rest of the world; no phones or internet, the whole point is to do absolutely nothing, not even talk, for ten days - and I was eager to get back to routines and get a loooot of time for myself. Apparently not meant to be. Yesterday afternoon Kai got all dotted... Chicken pox. It will take a week or two for him to recover. School is of course out of the question. A week or two is also about the time of incubation. Hana will most likely be next. So, I have quickly forgotten about the idea of time for myself, and put on the full time single mum dress...
(cant even call Keisuke and complain, maybe the worst of it all)
