A Mother’s Monologue

This pregnancy, the Hubs has been very lazy. He hasn’t been out ONCE to satisfy my pregnancy cravings, mostly because I was vomiting so badly at the beginning and then didn’t really have cravings that sent me into murdering zones, and now he just takes for granted that I DO NOT have any cravings.
I can [...]

Last weekend, the Hubs and I had a mission to give our bedroom a BIG spring clean. This meant hoovering the entire bedroom from ceiling to floor, to picture rails to the back of pictures, to curtain rails to fans and lights, to the backs of furniture to cupboard grooves and surfaces. It also meant [...]

If there is one indulgence that the Hubs MUST have, it’s his fortnightly viewing of the Formula One. Before I met him, I didn’t even know what Formula One was. Now I know a little, but since Michael Schumacher retired, I’ve lost interest. Jensen Button is cute though.
Tee and the Hubs used to have these [...]

Did you know that men nest as well when there is an impending baby on the cards?
It’s funny how you assume that because this is the second baby, it will be a teeny weeny bit less exciting than the first, but no. Apparently not.
The Hubs, my darling Hubs, is as excited as I am, even [...]

Tee and her father, they have this wonderful relationship which is completely separate from mine with her. I am the mother. I shower her with love and attention, abundantly. I shower her with scoldings and naggings, just as opulently. But when push comes to shove, it is always, always the mother that children come back [...]

Well, it’s probably not as absurd as it sounds. It probably has some energy thing that increases your metabolism or something which in turn makes you kinda lose weight. Capiche?
Anyway, my mother, who loves me so much and has so much faith in me losing weight, bought me two ‘lose-weight’ crystal [...]

Do you? It’s probably because I didn’t study in America that I’ve never taken an interest. So I asked the Hubs about the Dallas Cowboys today whilst driving home. In fact, I asked him if the Dallas Cowboys were an American Football team, suspecting that it was. See how blur?
He immediately told me that they’d just [...]

Yesterday, the Hubs was looking for some tupperwares to store some food but our cupboards had so many of those free plastic boxes with mismatched lids that he got so fed up and drove out to Ikano to buy RM200 worth of lock-lock tupperwares. If you think RM200 will get you a [...]

Ever since a lovely friend of ours lent us a bag of DVDs, we’ve been watching one every single night. Either we watch it after Tee is asleep, or like last night, I was asleep whilst Tee watched The Transformers with her Daddy. As much as people said how good the movie was, it just [...]

It has been an ongoing discussion with the Hubs, the subject of getting a maid. Whilst there are days where I feel that I really want one, the Hubs always manages to convince me otherwise. I tried convincing him that I can make more money if we got a maid but it isn’t about the money, [...]
