PB,
Same as you, hubby cannot afford a 40K ring. He definitely won't get me one cos when I thought of upgrading my engagement ring, he said "What for? You don't wear your current one anyway!"
And we're definitely at humble beginnings too.
Well, with regards to Swatch, I have a little problem falling asleep. So it will definitely keep me awake if I were to, let's say, wake up to go toilet. But then again, with hub's snoring, maybe I won't hear the Swatch too.
dd,
Haha, I don't know what to get from Munich too. The place I was telling Cin is a beer garden with good food.
Re lying: I would prob ask him "And how did Chloe Jie Jie get here?" and then wait eagerly for his answer cos I love to see that thinking/stunned look on Dec's face.
doggiebb,
Yay!
Holly,
Can join in la. Join me in the viewing session, viewing of other people's stuff la. Haha.
Michelle,
Eh, I'm with Mr Mich here. I won't get an iPad cos it's just a big iPhone and if I wanted to surf net, I'll just do it on a laptop.
Sowwwweee.
SY,
Haha, lunch anytime for me too.
Waiwai,
I understand how you feel. As Michelle said, talk to hubby and ask why he's not supportive.

You very funny leh.. It's only a ring.. No need security.. The problem with diamond is no resale value....
..

Hb bought the ring when I had ezekiel.. When I was back from hospital my hb got my elder boy to pass to me...
I did ask him why.. He mention that he saw how suffering I was in hospital and the pain I went thru coz c section and the nurse accidentalily turned me the wrong way causing my wound to bleed and I cried in pain .. The pain couldn't subside with 3 types of pain killers and even morphine jab..
Frankly I didn't know the price until I brought the ring to alter...

Yes yes I totally agree with wat u say.
I have relations who stay in 3 rm flats whole family of 5 and flat condition is the same as when they bought it donkey yrs ago kind. But they buy cars by paying FULL in CASH kind lor.
DD
E does that too but......I think they are jus trying their luck.
But cos E understands alittle as I punish D severely for lying. And I will make it 'known' that lying is not allowed and will be punished.
So when E even says a little lie like she needs to pee when she doesn;t, I will ask her if she's lying and wants to be punished like Gege. She will be frightened n quickly say No.
doggiebb
Haha Teddie boy is so funny with the "I SCREAM SO LOUD".....hahaha
Ember has her share of "Ember cry in the lift" LOL.
And your boss is soo nice and understanding.

Thaddie boy is still at his WHYS and he tries to answer himself by saying BECAUSE. but he normally just stop at BECAUSE and can't go on. hehe!
but recently his favourite phrase is WHAT HAPPENED? we laugh he will ask WHAT HAPPENED? we will be talking halfway and he will ask WHAT HAPPENED? so its quite hilarious!

Hello mummies
Everyone got recharged during the long weekend? I went to Surabaya and stuffed myself like crazy with Indon food. Now I have to think of ways to loose those kilos fast!!!
Cellow
C1 and C2 - so precious.
Mr C is so sweet to give you a present.
Good luck with the new helper. I'm anticipating mine next monday. Do housework until my Carpal tunnel syndrome came back. Now I'm wearing 2 splints at night *sighs*
Doggiebb
You're so lucky your Mr is understanding. Like Michelle, Mr SD will never allow me to go as well, well he allows but I must bring the kids. *frowns*
OMG your boss!! She's nice. Totally like mine last time. If only she didn't move to China.
Serene
*pat pat* Aiyo your MIL is too much. How would she feel if she were given a name to scare the kids too.
DD
You mean there is a Midnight fireworks? How come I didn't know that. I only know the fireworks was at 8+ pm
PB
Crumpler bag - I know Paragon and Raffles city have one.
As long as BIG BOSS knows you contributed and since he likes your work means that he's probably aware of the situations. Be patient and you'll get the reward you deserved. Be very careful with your immediate boss. Put everything in black and white.
cin
Wow 2 weeks holiday in Eastern Europe!!! *envy* Wow Bean not coming?? Enjoy yourselves!!
Rena
Good that your hb appreciate you!!

Holly,
Yah, no money and plus we/I would rather save the money for rainy days. Even going on trips make me feel guilty cos I would be thinking that I could have saved the money.
Esq,
Your hubby understands what you've gone through and appreciates you... you are indeed blessed
To me, that is the most important. Indeed, expensive gifts are nice, but I think the most important gifts eg. words are free.
SY,
Yah, we sound so free. I figured, since people like to think SAHMs as slack, free, tai tais, I might as well pretend to be la.
And I know of parents who take their kids out from school to attend this or that... basically it's between you and your hubby, if you 2 agree, then go ahead and do it. Cos there's always going to be differing opinions on this.
youpi! You're my idol!

Did you tell Kayden you were going to take a bus? If not, then he prob thought you wanted to take a cab, the same way you guys came. Nothing wrong with that

i did.. just that we saw the cab first.
even though there was someone in it already..
its gettin so hard to drag him away now.. he got so much strength.
i had no choice but to leave him on the floor in the library..
and someone told me to move him away in case he gets hurt.. as if i dont wish, but i dont have the strength.. i saw that he was old, so didnt ask his help..

Speaking of increment... Tks girls. I guess big bosses do see, becos I did get a small increment even though it was supposed to be based on last FY's performance (I only worked 15 days of last FY)
but it doesn't change the fact that I keep having to endure hugo's funny ways everyday. Sigh.
I so wish I were doing this same job, at my old company
Smiggle
Haha at "as if I don't wish". I also want to roll my eyes at kaypohs who tell me "the floor is very dirty you know" when poppy decides to throw tantrum in public and roll on floor. Like I dunno liddat hor?
The most satisfying answer I've given to irritating kaypohs: "well, she's a child" with a "like, hello? Duh?" look

wow lots of activites here! No time to reply to everyone
Cellow nice gift from Mr C! Hubby is non romantic kind. he also brought me to the shop to get me to choose kind coz he say he scared he buy then i dun like how. its not a cheap gift. well point taken that he does not quite trust his own taste (except for the fact that he chose me as his wife)
MBS, heard that it was super duper duper crowded over the NDP day? my friend went and hated it there!
Doggiebb, nice that thaddie is saying what happened. Mine is still at 'wo bu yao' stage with a sulky face.
I did something to xun gal yesterday. I caned her (!!) 4 times because she threw a pencil and paper hard on the floor. I gave her 3 choices:
1) Pick them up (easy right?)
2) Hands on the wall
3) Mummy beat with cane
Her replies:
1) Wo bu yao pick up
2) Wo bu yao hands on the wall
3) Wo bu yao mummy beat
-_-"""
I asked her which hand did she use to throw the pencil? She lifted up her right hand and I caned here there. Obviously she cried. Then 2nd time i asked her, she put her hands behind her back and I caned her on her thighs. Repeated the whole process of asking the questions + caning until she picked them up.
I told her once she pick them up, I will put down the cane and hug her.
The moment she did, I put down the cane and hugged her. Then put some cream on her 'wound' (ok I think I did hit quite hard). And she is ok in 1 sec. Back to her usual self. I was like .... errrm ok. Fine.
Seriously I dunno how else to discipline her.
The day before, she wanted to bring her bag to my mum's place and we refused, she cried (and SCREAMED at the top of her voice) for a good half hour in the car. Only when we were reaching my mum's place she stopped and came to a realisation that no matter what, she will not get it. So she was ok after that.
I dunno if I did the right thing or not
Apparently she is totally fine now.

You are also my idol!!! I dun even dare to bring Wuffy out alone in SG! Brought him once to Jurong Point (when I was not yet preggy), swore never to do that alone again! haha.. so lousy.
Holly,
Take it easy..if tired then dun run around too much. I also cannot make it liao. Today went out lunch with frens and then went taka baby fair to take a look, biangz..so tiring!!!
PB,
Congrats!
your efforts have not been in vain! LoL on your swatch watches! heehee
Cellow,
Yea..I think the cheapest rolex i seen is abt $2k plus. the simple oyster with metal straps. so ya..min a 4 figure sum.
So nice of hubby to get you one to surprise you! My wedding anniversary (the ROM one) is near to yours (i think it is 27 Jul -- need to check my wedding band - which we both dun wear and which is hidden in the safe ). Unfortunately, both of us forgot abt it. jia lat.
Jace,
I am also thinking of using the cane cos talking is no use. But but but, I decide to defer this form of punishment till he turns 3. And oh, i had a myanmese helper which i changed in the end. English is way too poor, and there is no way I can use their dictionary to point the words... So I chose indoneseian helpers.
wah..too tired liao...so many posts..will continue tomorrow..

Sigh on using cane. But that is I guess the only way for now. Talk until dunno wat to say n she will still be screaming n crying n refusing to do the right thing. The prob is my mum dun have the time to implement the punishment corner n I also got no strength to make her stand there. So bo bian. Just hope she understands. At least she dun hate me after that.
Doggiebb wow the communication got to use pen n paper for the helper?? Dieee. My mum can't write English. Can only say simple English. Hmmmmm

Good morning mummies!!! So sian yesterday because of hugo and my neckache and headache. But today is a brand new day! Jing tian hui geng hao!
Calling for dustee.... Are you there, there, there?.... Which reminds me, if SAHM, or working mums on leave, want some company for an outing or excursion, feel free to call bluebunny and poppy along!
Oh re lying
If poppy throws something I ask her not to, I ask her which hand did it. She used to stick out the hand that did, and I would smack it. Now I ask her "is it this hand?" She'd say no. To both hands. So I spank both. I used to try saying "books/cups/mama's bra etc are not for throwing. Here, throw a ball!". Maybe I should reimplement that

Don't kamikaze! Don't be hero! Colleagues like a hero to speak out for the team, but bosses don't.
If got anything to complain/voice out to boss, do it in private. Ultimately, their rank is still higher and no matter how much we dislike them, still got to give them face in front of other people. Or say "I really feel strongly about the other option" liddat. Remember who is doing your appraisal and got the power to decide on increment...
Of course I draw the line at being a yappy dog with tongue dangling and tail wagging in front of the boss with "yes boss! Right away boss!". I know some people who are liddat, and yet behind boss' back, make so much noise about how they can't stand the boss. Yikes

morning ladies
old maid went off w/o much drama ystday. however i spent the prev night tossing and turning and imagining all sorts of possible scenarios.
new maid is finally here.
C1 vomitted twice last night.
C2 is having a blocked nose and din sleep well too.
I opened fridge and decided to throw out all the expired fbm before 12 May (only in normal freezer). Very heart pain.... but must look at long term objective of breastfeeding... tt my children are healthy. Initially was feeding them to C1 to clear stock, but Mr C thinks it might be due to me clearing stock that led to him vomitting. I was so mad that I cried while throwing out all my hours of pumping, labelling and packing. Mr C scared of my drama - bcz I NEVER EVER throw away my milk during C1's time - he finally shut up.
hope today will be better. *deep breath*

Me me! The very slack and free tai tai can go lunch! And SY and dd said they could do lunch too. I'll just sms them as soon as we get the place and time fixed. What a perfect excuse for me to get out of the house too! I hate construction, reno, the works! So noisy!
