I reported to work. Did the work and logged out before 5PM. Yesterday was stressful for me, good thing today was a little bit lighter. Although I did not escape without an additional bug to my name but it is simple to fix.

Dude did not report to work today because she's not feeling well. I advised her to take the day off and do something she likes so that she'll forget about the stuff at her work. She made us labour of love muffins. I particularly like the dates and walnuts one.

Tonight the whole family went out for a walk -- apparently it's the last Tuesday of summer today.

I also paid some bills. I paid the credit card bill in full. It's the first time I reviewed my transactions and found out that I was charged by Amazon close to $40.00 in one day. After doing some investigation, I saw that there were some rogue downloads that went through on one day. Multiple $3.99 downloads from the app store. Turns out, it was my youngest who made the downloads. Her account is now blocked.

Today's the second day of my tutorials with the kids. Today's lesson is on writing. The sisters had a lesson on recounts, the youngest one was doing her letters E & F. Amazing how little time you have to allot in deliberate practice to drill some small but important lessons in their studies.

My eldest doesn't know the concept of subject and predicate in sentences. The kids rarely read instructions in their work books. Lesson 1 is reading and understanding the instructions correctly so that they have a better chance in answering the questions correctly.

Block my kids accounts from buying through their devices' app stores. I will thank myself at the end of the month from unnecessary money drains.

Instead of jogging, I really like walking specially when I'm with dude or with the whole family, but I can always walk by myself during lunch time.
It's almost time to sleep, right now I find myself enjoying playing classical music in the background instead of the repetitive pop playlist. I think it would improve the overall mental health of the people here in the house when they listen to classical music. I also put it on to relax, and when the kids are studying maybe it helps them to concentrate.
I made a quick call to a friend tonight asking for their property broker. This is the first step to take when we want to acquire our first home ever. Let's see where this takes us. A step closer to our home in 🇦🇺 Australia I hope. I can sense it is near!
We're almost at the end of February. This month I feel that there were more fails than successes for me. So, before March begins, I'll set a maximum of three goals for myself. Three because the lesser the more focus I can give to those goals. I won't be spreading myself to thin.
With concentrated focus, you can start a fire with a magnifying glass -- anything less than that would not produce results.
