Just when I was complaining to the Hubs what a dry season it was with all the advertisers these last few months and then worse, this whole month of June, I'd only received ONE offer from my favourite advertiser; I received a wonderful.......click to learn what next.

Colon cleansing company

Posted on June 28, 2009 by Mamapumpkin

A coupled friend of mine owns a colon irrigation company in Sri Hartamas and they are perfect examples of health freaks. They don't eat any red meat, hardly eat chicken but eat the right types of fish and lots of fruit and vegetables........click to learn what next.

Sleepy Pregnancy Massage

Posted on June 28, 2009June 24, 2009 by Mamapumpkin

Last 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.......click to learn what next.

Yikes! But it's got to be done. That is my task for the day. My reward tonight would be watching The Good Body with some ladies who are mothers of Tee's school friends. I was invited. I hardly ever invite because I can.......click to learn what next.

Decorating a bathroom door

Posted on June 27, 2009June 24, 2009 by Mamapumpkin

I am so mad at the Hubs. Once upon a time (we’re talking years here), I suggested that we painted our guest bathroom door on the inside because it was plain, white and boring. I wasn’t looking at painting it just one colour,.......click to learn what next.

A rough pregnant day of words

I cannot stress how horrible yesterday was for me. My body just felt like it was about to tear apart. I tried having an afternoon nap with Tee around and usually she is very good if I turn the TV on or if.......click to learn what next.

Preschoolers as models

Posted on June 23, 2009June 16, 2009 by Mamapumpkin

Of late, Tee has been very reluctant in getting her photographs taken. This annoys the shit out of me. What happened to the never ending poser who would drop anything to pose for the flash? These days, the moment she sees me walking.......click to learn what next.
