We’ve officially survived Day 1 of Ramadhan, and honestly, everyone is holding up surprisingly well.
The biggest plot twist? Adam. This is his first time fasting, and if you know Adam, you know he’s basically a high-speed food processor. On normal days, he wakes up super early and immediately demands a full menu. I was bracing myself for a very long, very hungry day.
But little did I know, the boss had mentally prepared himself! As a mom, I kept giving him the option, telling him it’s okay to eat if it gets too tough, but he powered through like a pro. Watching him complete his first day with such ease was such a huge relief. One down, twenty-nine to go!
On a personal note, I haven't had a decent rest in months, but being back here has been the ultimate reset button. I’ve successfully ditched work to focus on me. I’m sleeping well, I’m eating well, the kids are happy, and for once, my brain isn’t running a marathon of to-do lists. I know reality is waiting for me back home, but for now, I’m soaking up every bit of this kampung peace.
Oh, and the best part? The unlimited baby snuggling. My two are great, but they’ve lost that new baby smell years ago. Luckily, the family here is still actively producing new ones, so my cravings are fully satisfied. I love handling them, but let’s be real, I’m too old to be starting that engine again for myself. So, I’ll just happily borrow someone else's.
That’s the update from the kampung for now. I’ve got one more day of bliss before we head back to Penang early Saturday morning.
Happy fasting, everyone! Bye!
