A Mother’s Monologue

….Talk is cheap….take it with a pinch of salt!

Read me in your Email Suscribe to my posts

Once upon a time, she designed buildings and interiors of corporate offices and on the rare occasion, homes. Now, she cleans poop and is student of a patience management course. From the drawing board as a London Architect to the realities of Motherhood, she has 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 Mamapumpkin: A crazy, kick-ass Mom who works full time juggling several jobs - the full-time paid job, the raising of her 2 kids (she gets paid in kind for this) and the volunteering job for various charity organisations and parenting websites. Needless to say, she gets very little sleep (3-5 hours per day, Margaret Thatcher who used to sleep 4 hours per day during her conservative career inspires this crazy lifestyle).

Mamapumpkin intends to change the working Mom landscape in Malaysia where working women can bring their children to the corporate office of a client and not be frowned upon.

She writes anything that comes out of her head, mostly without thinking first (since she already has to think at work!), which almost ALWAYS gets her into trouble (according to her husband, whom she considers the love of her life on a good day).

Her 2 pet monkeys drive her towards challenge after challenge, 24/7.....day after day.....and interestingly, her parents are Muslim, her in-laws Buddhist, she's Catholic and her Hubs, an Atheist. She's thinking her kids should be Hindu, just to complete the rainbow religion cycle.

Gotta love it.

She'd love to hear from you : Mamapumpkin at gmail dot com

Flat Panel TV Stands

By Mamapumpkin, on January 6th, 2013

Currently we have a TV that sits on our wall that we hardly ever use because we do not subscribe to Astro and well, we lead such super busy lives that we hardly have any time for TV. When we’re home, the kids are either reading or playing toys, or fighting with each other; and the Hubs and I would be either on our computers, reading or yelling at the kids. Kidding! We do play with them SOMETIMES!!! Anyway, now that I’m addicted to Suits, I would much prefer the TV to be in our bedroom but we would need to look at some flat panel TV stands for that!
