Old Blog and Old Age

I started a blog in 2005 at http://arim40s.blogspot.com/. I have not been updating that blog because I forgot the username and the password.I don't remember a lot of things lately. I believe it has to do with my age. I'm in my mid 40s now. Female shop assistants have been calling me 'pakcik' lately. I hope it's a sign of respect instead of me looking old.
So now I think I'm going to start blogging using this blogspot address to document my thoughts and activities so that I can read them later in life and evaluate myself. I might laugh at my self or react otherwise. One problem I have is that I don't have a flair for writing, plus, I commit a lot of typos. Words that I want to pen down stay in my head instead appearing in the entries.
Anyways, what has been happening in my life lately? Of course like everyone else, a lot.
1. I'm nearing the end of my four year leave and middle of this year I'll be back at work. Frankly I'm not looking forward since my colleagues have warned me of what's waiting for me at my workplace.
2. I'm in a relationship now. I never actually went around looking for a relationship. I was waiting for it to come to me and it did. Recently I thought about why I was not in a relationship previously and I concluded that I did not gave any possibilities for relationship a chance. I had several opportunities for a relationship, I just did not allow any to develop or even start. I was comfortable being single. So why did I give this one a chance, well, one reason was this person accepted me as I am, accepted me with all my idiosyncracies (in other words idiotic behaviors, muahaha). I love you my Baby.
3. One of my parents passed away in 2005 after 5 1/2 years of being bed ridden. God please forgive me for saying this but it was a relief at least for me. Spouses out there be ready to commit to a very restricted and exhausting life if your partner suddenly becomes bed ridden. You got to have a lot love for that person to endure the life of a care giver. One thing for sure, you'll be rewarded with an abundance of "pahala".
4. A lot of other things also happened which I might blog about them later...if I could remember what they are.
