Zen and losing our luggage
zen... erhm... i wasnt that zen at all inwardly. managed to only shout once at Mr C during the whole process
. i consider that a major accomplishment when i was mentally swearing at him, at the situation, at almost every step of the journey. things rapidly got better fm that inauspicious start
CNY
the boys are getting used to random firecracker bursts through the day. luckily the water dragon has been VERY watery in the night, so that reduces others' fireworks and firecracker setting. hehe
getting to know my MIL more has been fun too.
(wah, i m actually saying this out loud!!!!)
SY,
then does he hug you after you point it out?
next time, do what C1 does to me.... sometimes "MAMA, i NEED a hug .... right now!"
in any relationship (HB/wife, mother/child), the feelings of love flow and ebb. that is normal. i love C1 n C2 v much, AND there are times i wish to be far far away from them. all normal. what matters in what mich calls heart is the daily commitment, the fidelity to the day's activities. so that is the heart part.
head: think abt keeping a record of expenses, tracking your bank accounts, plus write a record of your time when you were SAHM... your non-monetary contribution to building up JH and JX.
happy to email/sms/lunch to lend you a ear.

after reading this, I realise Mr C mostly shows up in our lives, mine and the children's. that's why I m able to complain abt the rare times when he doesnt.
PB, happy to lend you a ear if you need to... have you shouted at BB already? n solved watever is bugging you?
