    My daughter makes me crazy…..

    Saturday, November 15th, 2008

    When I complain to Tee that she never listens to me, her MOTHER, she says,
    “Mom! Can you see that I am not an elephant??? I don’t have BIG EARS!!!”
    When she eventually says that she DOES listen, then I say, ok she listens, but nothing ever seems to sink in!!!
    And she says,
    “Mom, there is something stuck […]

    Our co-sleeping journey……

    Saturday, October 18th, 2008

    Why is it that children like sleeping with their parents? I don’t remember ever sleeping with a parent (but hey, that could be due to severe failed memory loss). I certainly don’t wish to sleep with my parents now. *cringe*
    It really is a dependency, isn’t it? I suppose it is much nicer sleeping with someone […]

    A battle of wills with my ‘almost’ four year old

    Thursday, September 4th, 2008

    I keep calling her my ‘almost’ four year old because I am in denial. I don’t want a four year old. I want her to be three forever………………But.
    I’ll have to face it sooner or later, as Tee races towards teen-hood and gives me the ride of my life. A bloody painful ride at that. God […]

    Blog hopping in blog communities

    Sunday, October 14th, 2007

    Whilst blog hopping today, I chanced upon so many blog communities and wondered if I should really be joining them to increase blog friends. Since my own friends don’t read my blog, perhaps I need to find new friends. Real friends. You know? The type who will be more than happy to help you earn […]

    You do not need a University or College Degree to succeed

    Saturday, October 6th, 2007

    Really. If you were confident enough, you’d know that.
    I had the good fortune of attending University after fighting really hard for scholarship and sponsorship. I told my Dad that if he wasn’t willing to part with his money to send me, I’d become a prostitute and support myself in London I got into one […]

    Obesity and weight loss

    Friday, October 5th, 2007

    Ever since I met the Hubs, my weight has been climbing a steep ladder, step by step, over the last ten years. It is discouraging to say the least but thankfully, I don’t feel the need to have the houston lapband just yet. I pray I never will.
    However, for many people out there who have […]

    Beware! RayBans required here….

    Do you know what I wish for?
    I wish that when I hover the mouse over any part of this blog, that it will spring a cloud to tell me exactly where the html code is for that particular section of the blog.
    FARK!
    *tearing hair out*

    Weight loss or inch loss?

    Thursday, August 16th, 2007

    At Tee’s Doctor today, I weighed myself with a real weighing machine. Not a wonky one like the one I have at home. My heart skipped a beat at the extra kilos till I pacified myself that perhaps I was building muscle.
    My jeans are certainly looser.
    Yesterday, I did 5km on a bike and 2km walking on […]

    Tee’s Dinner Tonight

    Tuesday, July 24th, 2007

    For dinner tonight, Tee had:-
    1 hard boiled egg minus yolk (her request)
    1 banana (her request)
    THAT’S IT!
    See what I mean? Usually, she has a full bowl of porridge or a full bowl of pasta or whatever, but the portion is equivalent to 6 fistfuls (her size). And she cleans it. Not all the time but…….she almost […]
