My partner in crime - the very square Hubs
Errant drivers at school
Wednesday, February 17th, 2010One thing that irritates me about Tee’s school is the way cars and their respective drivers rule the road as though their grandfathers built them. These people, they practise their driving skills as though it was a bumper car ride outside the school. What more, there is no vehicular discipline at all. Cars just go [...]
Godiva in Malaysia
Thursday, November 26th, 2009If you don’t already know, GODIVA has reached our shores……the shores of KLCC beside Harrods on the 1st floor. The first time I ever had Godiva was when my mother in law handed me a piece - a single, miserable piece of chocolate jewel that I treasured with every drop of saliva and didn’t dare [...]
Father babysits 3 month old baby
Friday, November 20th, 2009So last night was THE DAY. Everything was planned to perfection and of course, I’ve told you many a time that every time I do that, perfection gets chopped and crushed into a million pieces. In a blender.
I had brought out a dress. A DRESS!!! Since I’ve always had T2 by my side, I’ve never [...]
Reward for pregnancy
Tuesday, November 17th, 2009I told the Hubs that no amount of money could ever reward me for the pregnancy I had to go through with T2 but since I am such a nice wife, I’d settle for a pair of Christian Louboutin shoes. My friends say I should demand for a new rock at minimum! So he should [...]
Communication breakdown
Monday, November 16th, 2009After a very stressful day of cries, cries and then more cries, stress from helper, stress from Tee, stress from EVERYTHING, I smsed my better half,
Me: ;’-(
The Hubs: Huh?
Thinking he may not have understood the tearing icon, I went…
Me: *sniff*
The Hubs: HUH?
Me: U’re so cold.
The Hubs: ???
Me: *shakes head* Whatever happened to what’s the matter, [...]
Price of Nintendo DS Lite in KL
Sunday, October 25th, 2009For the last month, Tee has been praying to God asking him to get Santa to get her a DS Lite, exactly like the one her boyfriend has and it has to be white colour, not pink. No way. Make sure it’s white, ok?
I truly wonder if she is purposefully praying out aloud so we [...]
Increasing my breast milk
Friday, October 23rd, 2009Not that I have to but I’m just curious and also, I figured that if I increased my supply, perhaps T2 would take 1 minute to drink up instead of 10? Anyway, I’d been taking fenugreek tea on and off by just pouring hot water into the seeds but haven’t really noticed any difference. Then [...]
Great Novelty Socks for Men
Friday, October 23rd, 2009The Hubs is a sucker for cute black socks like these as he’s a creative dude but in Malaysia, they are hard to come by. So seeing that I get excited now with online shopping, I might just be browsing here more often, hehe….for myself, of course.
Just imagine, your boss in your corporate office sits [...]
Learning to string your Dad round your little finger
Tuesday, October 20th, 2009My 10 week old baby, since she was 6 weeks old has been spoilt rotten by her Dad. Every night after our dinner, I would go put Tee to sleep, and he would carry T2 the entire night from 8 or 9pm right up till midnight. Is this how one spoils one’s daughter?
Usually, I will [...]
Our weekend
Sunday, October 18th, 2009The Hubs is on strike. He no longer wants to be included into our weekend activities. He wants to stay home to sleep. Thus any activities I wish to pursue over the weekends will be done alone with my 2 girls. I have never done this before as he always tagged along, as an extra [...]
Second wedding and honeymoon
Monday, October 12th, 2009The Hubs wants to get married again one day when the girls are bigger and have a second honeymoon after all the hard work we are going through right now with them. Yes, once they are done with their education, we are going to look up some vegas hotels and get Elvis to marry us, [...]
Going out with baby
Monday, October 12th, 2009The Hubs is very against me going out and about town with baby unless it is to nearby places, which he deems safer, like to Bangsar village or BSC or to pick Tee up from school, or to friend’s homes. I was going to go to the Taman Tun Park for a picnic with T2 [...]
Boys and their Toys
Sunday, October 11th, 2009The Hubs has been complaining that he works very hard every day only to fuel our lifestyle and expenditure but he is left with nothing. Tee has her lifestyle, I have mine, T2 has hers…..we are all pretty content. The Hubs said he has NOTHING. I told him that the reason he has nothing is [...]
Taking life risks
Sunday, October 11th, 2009Last week, I asked the Hubs if my car had any petrol, seeing it is his duty to fill my car up with gas. He nodded a reassuring yes which made me assume I had a full tank. I needed a full tank as I had a busy week.
Come the day when I brought T2 [...]
Hiring good staff
Sunday, October 11th, 2009The Hubs has been very stressed at work lately because he has one particular staff that has been on 13 MCs this year and the year is not even over. The limit for MCs in a year is 14 days and coincidentally, this staff always takes his MCs just before or just after a weekend. [...]
Documenting children’s milestones
Monday, October 5th, 2009The Hubs has gone all paternal ever since T2 came along. He is pissed at me because I have no idea where Tee’s baby book is and wants me to start documenting T2’s progress. You’d think he was vying for this year’s Father of the Year award. Shit, like I have all the time in [...]
The scoop on Grandma Panties
Friday, August 7th, 2009I visited my Obgyn today to remove some stitches from my C-sec wound. It was an unplanned visit. We had gone to the hospital to check on the baby but my Obgyn’s nurses spotted me and informed me that instead of coming back again, I might as well remove my stitches today.
Now if you knew [...]
Housing Loan / Mortgage Refinancing
Monday, July 27th, 2009So what does a pregnant lady get tasked to do whilst tapping her fingers sitting at home waiting for a baby to come out? Research the best refinancing housing loan options….
Bugger!!!
That’s what the Hubs has assigned me to do since we’re paying way more interest rates than we are right now. We have already consulted [...]
Learning to Manage Stress
Friday, July 24th, 2009Whilst we’re on the subject of stress, I can understand why my husband is stressed these days because he not only works really hard as an employee, father and husband FULL TIME, he hardly ever gets any time to himself to do the things he likes doing. By himself. It is his choice though as [...]
The Hubs’ dragon temper
Thursday, July 23rd, 2009My dearest husband, fondly admired for his fierce dedication to family life, has a very explosive temper. Nobody who didn’t know him any better would expect this and in fact, many of my friends don’t believe it, but it’s true! Ever since I met him (more than 10 years ago), he already had this temper. [...]
Holiday Invitations in October and December
Friday, July 10th, 2009As lucky as we are, we have been invited to 2 holidays this year but unfortunately, they both happen to be after the baby is born. This is fine by me but the Hubs, being as anally retentive as he is, at this point in time, refuses to accept any holiday offers because they are [...]
Calculating Monthly Expenses
Wednesday, July 8th, 2009My CFO insists that I record every single penny I spend and I agree with him because it is an extremely good habit for knowing where the money goes, instead of flippantly splurging on unnecessary purchases only to regret later over spilt milk. What I do is keep every single receipt that I get in [...]
Daddy’s Little Girl, I am not!
Saturday, July 4th, 2009Every morning, the Hubs drives Tee to school in a rush. This little girl, she takes an entire 40 minutes at least, to get herself ready with breakfast and all. From our place, he has to make a slight detour to her school and then zoom off to KLCC. But despite the rush, he still [...]
Ladies Night Out
Sunday, June 28th, 2009I’m having the urge to post pregnant face pictures of myself of late - perhaps it is an exercise to put on record how much weight I get to lose after this baby comes out. And seeing that I look like a maid most of the time, it’s a nice thing to put on record [...]
Sleepy Pregnancy Massage
Sunday, June 28th, 2009Last night, I begged the Hubs to give me an oil rub as I was so stressed from the lack of sleep. The Hubs, the love of my life, obliged. Well, under duress, as I had threatened to hump him had he hesitated for a second. And believe me, it is no fun being humped [...]
