I did it again today! Did another set of laundry. This is my favorite house work. I make it a point that I imagine myself working out in a fitness center when doing the laundry. The clothes are the dumb bells, the pale I use to fill the wash tub with water is the barbell or machine that affects the abdomen area and the rugs on the floor as the treadmill. I started realizing this when I admitted that my stomach was getting big and I felt heavy even when walking. I guess it was last quarter of 2010 when I started this ritual.
Kahit naka washing machine ang gamit, I realized we still need to exert physically para naman sa kagaya kong di ma afford mag punta sa gym ay may onting exercise pa din. Nakakatuwa lang isipin at ipahayag na kahit papano may resulta. Yan ay sabi ng misis ko na parang pumorma daw ang aking braso at dibdib. And she jokes about it. One time a HS friend she was chatting with at FB was asking where I am, she said I was sleeping early coz I was just done with my work-out. This HS friend was surprised and told her to send her a picture. They laughed thru chatting when she discovered that my work-out was doing the laundry twice a week.
When we got a digicam as a gift, she really remembered to take my pic while doing the laundry cause she said she will show it to my friend the next tym they chat. Hahaha!
Now, after doing the laundry, I have another work-out to do. That is to make my son take his nap. This one is gonna be tough. He will figure out something to get me off his back and make me forget to make him do his naptime. Mind work-out it is!
Ang tawag dito ay unahan sa pang u-uto. My 5-year old is good at this. There have been many times he has gotten away with it. Him making me take a nap time! Weird but true. My wife has become a victim too of faking a nap. Victim of our own dose of medicine, we fall asleep and this little mama of ours will enjoy himself playing his toys or PSP and wait for us to wake-up and tell us: “Ikaw naman nakatulog Dad/Ma!”
Now, he just asked me if I wanted a back massage but stopped after a few stokes on my back. Hahaha! He is testing the water already. I got to go now, since, I need to strategize my style. It’s been a while since he was left with me for nap time.
TC to all! Enjoy the weekend!
