small things accomplished
(1) I wanted to bring the printer I bought for an exchange as I suspected it was faulty. But upon testing it again, I realized that it appeared faulty only because I did not insert the photo-paper tray rightly the last time I tried. So, with the tray properly inserted, there was no problem and hence no solution needed. Haha.. I spent the time printing out 40 photos instead from my digital camera bought in July last year. I intend to show those photos to my father at the hospital to remind him of the good times we have had. Motivation and faith in a good life ahead is very important to keep a person's spirit up.
(2) As resolved yesterday, I managed to fix up the broken toilet paper holder. It was actually very much simpler than I imagined, being a matter of unscrewing and screwing a few things and I had the tools necessary. Once again, I am reminded of a lesson: many tasks seem formidable or unpleasant only because one has not begun executing them.
Aside: i did not manage to do two pieces of office work that I brought home. But it is ok. I had told myself that in 2007, I shall not work during weekends. The time is meant for personal admin, family and leisure. I shall need to focus on work tomorrow as a deadline draws up on Tue!
