Actually the last few cold rainy days were quite some time away. But there’s always a certain dread in the cold rainy days. It’s hard to get out of the house cause you’ll most definitely get wet along the way. It’s hard to will yourself to get out of bed because it’s just so nice and warm and cosy.
But then again, I was remembering that I used to really embrace the cold days when I stayed at Jalan Minyak. It was a moment today when I had to peel off my old address and to stick on the new one, to state that I would officially find my place of residence here in Bukit Batok instead.
I remembered that I would find myself in pajamas even though I had no air conditioning. I would also be snuggled into bed, with dim lighting, and maybe playing a vinyl or two. There was just something really special about having life that way, and it was good on the cold rainy days.
But now it’s really just another cold rainy day again.
The dread to do work, because it’s so cosy. I say that, but I literally cleared so much work today. It was kinda nuts. Maybe it was because unlike before, now my work from home situation is quite well equipped to handle a whole range of things to do. I also find myself being quite happy to sit at my table and figure out what’s the next thing coming up.
Cold and rainy, but maybe there could be a new routine to develop.
I’m sitting in my pajamas now, and just typing away to end the busy day. I think I’ve done quite well today, and I’m happy if tomorrow would be similar. Maybe this would start a routine of it’s own, in this new place, in a new cold rainy day.
