We Need To Breathe

I have been depressed lately and I think we need a vacation. If only I can afford it I would book a room in hotel barcelona. We could stay there for a week or two. Booking for a hotel accommodation is as easy as pie. And since we are already in Europe, we can also visit Paris and stay in hotel paris. For sure we visit a lot of places and enjoy our stay there. It could take away all my worries and depressions.

The reason why I am depressed? Still have something to do with what happened to us during the storm. Well you know that we were affected by the flood that hit our country last September 26. Yes it was more than a month ago now but every where I look I was reminded by it. As much as possible I want to forget that experience but it is really hard. Just like yesterday, I was due for my post natal check up and Sati is due for her check up with the Pediatrician. My Obstetrician and her Pediatrician is an hour away from our house. It’s far, I know, but we are so used to them. Remember that I gave birth to Sati in a hospital that is an hour away from us (or two plus heavy traffic). And since our car (no thanks to the insurance company) is still on muddy condition (apparently, more than a month after it was towed and brought to their restoration area, the car is still in muddy condition), our only means of transportation is to take a cab.

Now let’s talk about the cab, well, the driver charge us 3x more than the usual fare because our destination is really far. the worst part of it, the drier smells really bad. Imagine we have to endure that. It was really depressing. It makes me wanna wish we were in Rome and staying on hotel Rome. If we can only afford an out of the country vacation. The idea of getting away from all these is very tempting. And since we still cannot afford it, I promised myself that I will devote my January earnings on an out of town trip with the family. I hope we already got a bigger car by them.
