Prosper
Ya lor.......actually i am more happy to work from home rather than sad that i need to work at night also. Wahaha.....can sleep abit late liao.
Janbebe
Yes, you are right. Hope that i got the self control determination. Maybe lock myself inside the room.
Mangogal
Where is that hotel for the dim sum? I seldom go any where without my hb so am a road/places idiot. Wanna see if i can go later or not.

alamak, missed out on Prosper, in fact prosper took the No. 001 giraffe.
waiting to go lunch liao. Think baby dreams booked her lunch spot sometime ago but don't know why missing leh.
Sung, emailed you on the class already. Emailed a oucple of people but I don't know who's who. heee
Am thinking of doing a class on Julie the lamb but hor ... that one might require TWO classes. That requires a totally different technique. More work, more advanced, more complicated but damn nice lor since it has limbs.

strawberry ... had a quick read on your post. Oh dear. So how now? confirmed need to pay the relative? Are you happy with his/her service and at that rate? If not why not you start shopping around for beter rates? I'm sure your relative will understand if you have to switch to another carer.
But yes, really have to do your sums first before hiring anyone. My hubby was thinkiing of hiring a maid so that I could get some sleep at night instead of work through the night all the time. With maid I can at least work a bit during the day time mah. Currently day time Gracie refused to let me get anything done one so I always wait till she sleeps at night then work on my dolls. Very chiam. But then I calculated that we would need to spend about $550 for levy and salary then another few hundred on expenses everymonth. My hubby loves to eat out alot and often at Japanese restaurants so this wouldbe like feeding one more person suddenly. We estimate it to cost about a thousand eveymonth.
So I ask myself, how many dolls do I have to make to come out with one thousand. Ans is a crazy no. Then it's damn stupid lor, like work so blardly hard (which can kill my passion if I don't watch it) just to pay for a maid. Machiam like the maid becomes my boss!
So decided nope. Not going to hire after all. cannot afford the luxury

strawberrys,
Oh dear. I agree with the other mums - definitely shop around for better rates. Don't stress too much - when you have calmed and cooled down, sit down and talk things through with your hb nicely so that u are both completely open and not over emotional about your feelings and worries, esp when it comes to making decisions that will affect your finances as you are both breadwinners, not him alone. Re: household/baby responsibilities - if u were a SAHM and he is really the sole breadwinner then it's still understandable, but if u are both working equally and contributing to the family then, of course, depending on your work conditions, both of u shd help out with that too.
Then again, u know lah. Men will be men. That's why we are tougher, see? *LOL*
