….Talk is cheap….take it with a pinch of salt!
Before travelling to Bahrain this year, I’d purposely gone out to purchase a new pair of sunnies just for the trip (didn’t have any before). When I returned from Bahrain, I had already lost them. Now you know why. Giving me a pair of sunglasses is like giving Tee a piece of paper.
I couldn’t for the life for me remember where I’d left them. Was it whilst watching the camels? Did I leave it at the hotel? Apparently not, since I’d called the hotel when we arrived back in KL. Was it stolen from the airport, because our bag WAS broken into after all……….and the Hubs had lost his Braun Shavers.
I was crushed. Money down the drain and the Hubs was not happy.
A month later, the Hubs was contacted by someone in Bahrain asking if he had left a pair of sunglasses in the car that we’d rented whilst we were there. The Hubs immediately called me to ask what brand of sunglasses mine was. I COULDN’T REMEMBER!!! But I told him to say yes anyway so after an anticipated wait, it turned out that I’d really left my sunnies in the car that we were driving around with in Bahrain!
How lucky is that! I felt truly blessed…..
Once upon a time, I designed buildings and interiors of corporate offices and on the rare occasion, homes. Now, I clean poop and am student of a patience management course. From the drawing board as a London Architect to the realities of Motherhood, I have certainly learned many lessons in humility. And then others.....
To succeed in the corporate world, first succeed with your kid as the happy boss. Seriously.
This blog is about me, Mamapumpkin. A crazy, demented Mom who cares full time, alone, without any help, for an even crazier preschooler AND a baby with a boob addiction problem. *sniff* Someone, please get me a chair.......
I write anything that comes out of my head, mostly without thinking first, which almost always gets me into trouble (according to my husband, also known as the love of my life.......on a good day).
My pet monkeys drive me towards challenge after challenge, 24/7.
Gotta love it.
