A test of patience..

2020 has come to almost to its third month! And this has become the most unproductive welcome of the new year for me. So much of hoping this year to be a better year (of course, anything new should be better, we should always advance in our lives, rightt?), I am yet to be on my feet to do something more productive and income generating. Thanks to my full time role of being a mom and juggling between getting a real "job" done. 

Eussuv had his ACL surgery in the third week of January. And his physio goes on until now. So you can imagine the trips to the hospital every other day for his physio. While waiting for his physio session, I managed to catch up with dear friends who always happened to be in the area. How nice! Now he is back to college, I found myself "catching-up" with house work as well as well looking for jobs that I can take up. If only I can get jobs as easy as I did last year. Never lose hope, with continuous effort I am sure Allah will open the way. 

On another note, I am still anxiously waiting for the payment of my previous job which has been completed for two months. It's an "excruciatingly painful" wait. Task has been completed, sign-off documents has been agreed, and invoice has been submitted. What else is there? Where is the moneyyyyyy?? I have been tested, again and again. I have no words to describe what I feel right now. My patience is running very low. I may not be the only one in this situation, one probably wait for many more months, or maybe being cheated even... but hey, I am mere human. I have the right to feel this way. I want to shout, cry and beg for this payment!!!! Only Allah knows my predicament. And He Knows and He is the best planner. Please give the patience and strength to endure this.

Above all that, I am grateful that I am still breathing, healthy, well and alive. Happy? So so.. definitely not ecstatic given the situation.
