Not bad days really. Recently it has been calm. I've adapted to carefully maintain this peace and tried to avoid causing any conflict. I guess i just don't have the energy to do this. And plus the expectation is lower. It's nobody's fault. The year has been tough on us. 

The days before returning to work can be counted. This time is very different. After a serious burn out end of last year, it's the first time that i'm returning with no idea of what i'm going to do, or even worse, what i really want to do. that it make me really anxious. on one hand, i'm hoping work can be a distraction. i know i love tech part of my job. on the other, i don't know how devoted i could be at work, with all this much family duty. the situation is new, i must have low expectation on the next 6 months to a year... or maybe longer, like life time?
