ANY MALAY MUMS HERE?

Morning mummies!!

Just two days of work, I dah penat sangat w the sending and fetching my children to/ from my mom's. Ni bila I start sekolah malam, macam mana agaknya.

nora aw, Little Nyonya dah abis smlm. 2 hours show. I'm gonna miss it. Heh.
 


Salams, selamat pagi semua!

I belum sarapan ni..waiting for refreshments cart to make its round in this building..

Adam woke up so many times coughing last night. actually dia bukannya bangun nangis, tapi each time dia batuk, sure I bangun to check on him. batok teruk pulak tu....

Betty.bad

is yr mom's place near to yrs? U going to go for night classes eh? Salute you. Not easy at all. I am thinking of going for a diploma at night, tapi lengit ah thinking about the fatigue and rushing here &there...sighs...

Mdm Zainab
wah, bestnye half day.

Lynn
Popiah dah bis ke blom??
 
Mdm Zainab

how old is yr mom eh? Kirakan Fayaa's Yot lah? She still very fit eh..fit enough to take care of Fayaa the toddler? Wow, that's good!

My own Tok, who's Adam's Yot, is about 82 yrs old. Dia pon alhamdulillah still fit tapi tu lah si adam ni tak leh dok diam. Penat Yot dia kejar dia here & there.
 
Smalldreams,

The only best part is that I get to play with Fayaa.

Night class - better do it now if you all have someone taking care of the kids otherwise sure susah.

My elder girl took courses for the last 1 year since I can keep an eye on her daughter. Kalau dah pindah rumah sendiri difficult to go for night class.
 
Smalldreams,

My mum is 73 yrs old. Actually we have a maid to help her but then we sent her back to the agency (too young and cannot manage household chores) so now still waiting for the replacement maid to come *so sick of waiting already*
 
smalldreams,
where u working? ada refreshment cart lagi! macam kat spital...

i salute mummies yg bleh spare the time to upgrade themselves. Kudos! for me, siang2 i dah wave white flag. i cant & i dunt think i ever will.
for now, at least.
kalau stakat short courses up to 3mths tu bleh consider la...

took my diploma while still working full time after i got engaged.
tu jer dah penat... sib baik masih single.

agaknya if i blajar balik, i nak pindah either depan workplace or depan skool! hehhehe
 
i nak kena adjust my routine balik...semalam kan....balik kerja....tak sempat nak mandi pon....my anak2 dah mintak guide pasal homework.....

i pon dilemma...coz kalau i were to take upgrade then my anak2 dah nak kena ambik tutor....
 
lynn u ade baca nie --> "lynn02...tak per...kalau dia buat lagik....u try suap ur MIL...kalau ur MIL tak nak...u grip her arm n force feed her...."
 
hi mummies..

i juz wanna vent my frustrations..

Aaargh.. im so bingit.. i've got sooo many quotations to do.. and all the calls coming in are for me.. i feel like i cant breathe.. nak amek leave.. no point.. coz there will be no one covering my duties.. bingit bingit bingit..
 
i mcm nak tender.. but i shudder at the idea abt not bein able to get a job..

ladies,

would you rather be caught up in a stressful job and endure during diz economic crisis atau pack up n hopefully u'll find a better job?

im stuck..
 
ym.....maybe u can start sending resume...so when the other job is secured then u can just tender...but then the new job might not be stress free....
 
<font color="0000ff">Quote *lynn02...tak per...kalau dia buat lagik....u try suap ur MIL...kalau ur MIL tak nak...u grip her arm n force feed her...*

Alai hai.. mcm mana ku nak grib dia.. she double the size me lah.. baru ku nak grib kaki dia.. kang bukan dia.. ku pulak yg tercampak nanti!!</font>
 
<font color="0000ff">YoUnG_MoMmA

how do we test our IQ?
+++++++++++++++++++++++++

LELAKI YANG ROGOL ANAK DIHUKUM JEL 16 TAHUN DAN SEBAT 18 KALI
SEORANG bapa yang merogol anak perempuannya tiga tahun lalu ketika budak yang terencat akal itu berusia 11 tahun hanya dikesan ketika polis menyiasat satu lagi kes cabul di kalangan keluarga tersebut pada April lalu.

Abang iparnya yang tinggal bersama keluarga itu didakwa mencabul dua lagi anak perempuan lelaki tersebut.

Semasa disiasat polis, anak keempatnya memberitahu bahawa dia dicabul oleh bapanya. Bapanya kemudian diberkas polis.

Bapanya, yang berusia 40 tahun, mempunyai tahap IQ 60 - juga dikategorikan sebagai terencat akal yang ringan - disahkan cukup sihat untuk dibicarakan.

Di Mahkamah Tinggi semalam, dia mengaku salah dan dihukum penjara 16 tahun dan sebatan sebanyak 18 kali.

Mahkamah juga memerintahkan agar nama bapa dan anaknya tidak disiarkan bagi melindungi mangsa.

Lelaki berkenaan kehilangan isteri yang meninggal dunia akibat sakit ginjal pada 2004.

Timbalan Pendakwa Raya (DPP), Wendy Yap, memberitahu mahkamah bahawa pada Disember 2006, budak perempuan itu yang mempunyai IQ 59 tidur bersama dua lagi adik-beradiknya apabila bapanya mengejutkannya daripada tidur dan menyuruhnya agar mengikutnya ke bilik tidurnya.

Lelaki itu cuba mencium anaknya tetapi akhirnya merogol tanpa kerelaan budak itu.

Dua hari kemudian, dia cuba merogol anaknya itu lagi di dalam tandas tetapi terhalang setelah anak perempuannya yang bongsu tiba-tiba muncul.

Tuduhan cubaan merogol itu diambil dalam pertimbangan oleh Hakim Chan Seng Onn ketika menjatuhkan hukuman.

Anggota keluarga lelaki itu memberitahu wartawan di luar mahkamah semalam bahawa anak bongsu perempuannya kini berusia 10 tahun dan kakaknya 16 tahun. Abang budak-budak itu berusia 18 tahun dan 20 tahun.

Keluarga itu tinggal di flat empat bilik di kawasan timur dengan nenek dan abang ipar lelaki itu.

Pada mulanya, lelaki itu menafikan melakukan hubungan seks dengan anak perempuannya.

Dia mendakwa bahawa dia mabuk ketika pulang dari kelab malam dan menumpang teksi bersama seorang pelacur tetapi wanita itu enggan naik ke flatnya.

Semasa di rumah, dia melihat seorang wanita menyerupai pelacur tersebut. Dia mendakwa memanggil wanita itu ke dalam biliknya dan wanita itu menanggalkan pakaian sehingga menimbulkan rasa ghairah.

Ketika membuat rayuan kepada Hakim Chan, bapa tersebut yang menangis berkali-kali semasa perbicaraan berkata dia mahu pulang ke rumah untuk menjaga anak-anaknya.

Kes berhubung abang iparnya pula akan didengar bulan depan.

tu lah yg tak best nya bila werk for fren or wit fren.. semua nak kena jaga.. hati dan perasan..

for me lah i will avoid working for/wit fren/relative..!!

tapikan if u really cannot take it, i guess it best u leave the co.. b4 ur frenship will turn sour but make sure u find other jobs first..
</font>
 
YM...friends r friends...but when it comes to work there is a fine line.....perhaps u can see ur boss n propose a better pay...?
 
Young Momma,
relax, beb...
kerja memang banyak.. and kerja takkan habis... no point stress sgt.
relax, take a deep breath, do slowly. once you've gained the momentum, u back up.
at least dats wat i always do...


the market is sooo uncertain &amp; fragile..
i nak resign pun, i fikir berkali2, last2 tak jadi. partly pun coz i hate having to start all over again.

i rather be caught in dat job, for now. at least i noe every mth i got income to pay for skyrocketing groceries.
 
yg tak best wen working with frens/relatif is mcm takder 'black &amp; white' &amp; mcm 'doing a favour' gitu...
unoewakamin? (u noe wat i mean)

YM,
try talking to your fren abt it la...
 
Shahlynn...yup so true.....n like lynn mentioned kite end up 'makan diri sendiri' coz asyik nak jaga hati perasaan the other party....
 
<font color="0000ff">Quote *the market is sooo uncertain &amp; fragile..

betul betul betul</font>
 
ya lor ladies.. very true..

i did tok to my hb pasal diz.. dia cume takotkan i ajer. nanti susah nak dpt keje...

i tgk.. if i carik keje laen.. the basics are so much higher.. pat sini i keje nak mampos.. i take back less than 1K after CPF deductions.. tak peanuts ke tu.. da tu.. i solely handle seme company nye sales.. boring sak..
 
lina,
groceries makin mahal ah! dulu, i stock up @ shengsiong, $150 is more den enuff... now, skali blanja, at least $180 ah!
and bear in mind, i stock up every 2weeks...

a few days ago, my mom said beras golden circle, i think.. baru $19, tak silap... smalam my dad bought, dah naik $1.. ggggrrrrrr!!!!!!
 
watie
u handle all sales.. cam nie nak kena mintak commission.

hope ur fren pun ade consideration for you
kalau fren nak "makan" u, fren ape tu..

mcm shahlynn cakap, jgn kancheong, buat pelan pelan...
 
groceries... naik harge

fastfood pun naik harga
dapat coupon BK semalm, mak aii.. breakfast meal with coupon is $5
without coupon is $7!!!!! i remember it used to be $3 plus
 
nora,

unfortunately.. takde comm.. :-(

now seme harga da naek.. d only thing im happy abt rite now id the Mac grab n go breakfast.. burger &amp; coffee for juz $2 ajer..
 
watie
look on the bright side
at least ur work now provides you with exprieance that may be useful in the future

my sis used to werk in a small company with a very shitty boss
she had to do everything hands on.. but it provided her with exposure and a network of contacts
the practical experiance she gained is very useful bec now she is doing pretty well and working overseas lagi.
 
Ladies,

I tak jadi balik half day because my mum says she can handle Fayaa herself.

Sekarang nak makan lunch - asam pedas ikan pari, sambal goreng and bergedil. Jemput makan semua

kak zainab

oh cam tu, can save lah yr leave..

I pun macam nak amik child sick leave coz adam's unwell. tapi tak guna lah, coz i still have to report to work...

Young_momma

Sabar aje lah eh. I think kat s'pore ni it's like that almost everywhere. And now's certainly not to the time to job hop. chances are, dapat contract / daily-rated position. tak worth it. Kat Sunday Times pon ada article - in about 8 yrs, this IT grad only had 1 permanent jobs the rest are all contract jobs.

Lynn

Kalau ikutkan hati memang i dah lama nak quit. Tapi due to the flexi arrangements (throw in a breakfast push-cart as well, haha, shahlynn), and the stability of a job, I stay aje lah...

Nora

Memang lah semua naik! Though I can be frivolous in my spending, I try to think twice these days. Wanted to get a set of barney dvds for adam from a mummy kat WTS thread tapi she jual mahal seh - $12 each for 2nd hand! In the end, I asked to get just a piece, but she preferred to sell in a set to another person. Ok, better still for me. Saved $36...hehe
 
YM,
dah macam Yahoo Messenger plak... hehhe
if u dun see yourself going anywhere for the next few days at least, the only thing u can do rite now is relax, buat kerja pelan2...
at least if you DO leave pun, at least you can tell your FREN, "hey, at least I leave with DIGNITY!" you tak leave things unsettled!
 
Cik nab

jemput Bismillah..

ur mum still can handle fayaa without maid eh,my mom with maid pun ade problem...
the thing is she wants to do things herself (aka her way)
but then she will lose her temper

then bile i balik, her face so black.. sigh...
sabar je lah, i tell myself, org tua banyak karenah... ikut kan jer
 
<font color="119911">selamat tghari smua..
hari pun dah noon seh.. time for lunch already..
im back to office today clear emails, surat2, invoices bt too bad cant do them all coz still not open for 2009..
n im sick, sick, entah bila bleh baik dari demam panas, sengugut yg amat teruk hampir nak beranak angin, selsema yg teruk &amp; now batuk haiz..</font>
 
Nora,
your mum gitu...
my mom hari2 ask me to take maid.
i said, okay, i take maid. but every morning i send maid to her place. she taknak plak. she said tak bebas nak golek2, and jadi 1 kerja plak nak jaga maid i! gggrrrrr
 
Nora,

My mum pulak dengan maid dia kasi muka but she prefers to take care of Fayaa. Even with the maid she still cooks and feed Fayaa herself.

But anyway, I think most of us have to face the same thing with elder folks. Its true, kita kena sabar aje, one day we will be old too and our children will have to face us *hehe*
 
cik zai,
if i do have a maid pun, i rasa i buat gitu...
cooking &amp; kemas bilik tido &amp; attend to mika, i buat sendiri....
tapi nanti maid nak buat aper eh?
 
Shahlynn,

If can go without maid is better - tak pening kepala dengan dorang.

Nshah,

Kalau demam tak baik2 then you better go and see doctor. Hopefully you will recover soon.

Your office still closed?
 
<font color="0000ff">Yuuhuuu semua ni tak gi lunch ke??

i baru habis makan mee goreng wit chicken wing je.. tapao kat ofis.. mcm malas nak kluar pulak nari!!

Smalldream

shahlynn

i pulak tak biasa lepas kan my boy to my maid

so i balik jer, grab my boy main dgn him.. bec my mum yer face mcm nak pukul org already
i balik pun tak siang.. 8 plus
me and hb eat dinner outside bec bile at home dgn boy nak makn pun tak aman..

i nak mandi pun tunggu pukul 10 gitu whn boy dah baring baring
 
Cik Zai,
very true... but starting next mth, Insya Allah I'm taking a part time maid. bayar and get out!
takyah siapkan makan pakai dia!

tapi tulah, bila nak bayar maid, rasa macam sayang duit... if tak amik, aiyohhhh!!!! banyaknyer kerja aku! heran eh.. husband buat kerja rumah pun, i still think i got tonnes need to be done
 
Nora

what do you mean yr mom's face black? she would be able to do things her way when u're not around aper..ehhe

My mom pulak, always say I'm too soft and that Adam so well-behaved with her, but whiny the moment I get home. Sighs. macam2 eh

shahlynn

my mom jangan harap lah dia nak amik maid, her privacy is too precious.


Btw, pls PM me if you have contacts for a part-time tukang gosok baju, preferably Saturday mornings. Thanks..!
 
<font color="0000ff">Nora
u sampai rumah kul 8plus?? lambat ehh.. i klu sampai rumah klu 8 je.. my MIL face dah mcm Arang.. and start lah dia sindir2 i..!!

dat why klu nak balik lambat, i nak kena inform in advance.. normally by 6pm i dah sampai rumah!!</font>
 


Nora,

Kalau gitu your maid easy life lah, tak payah buat kerja.

You eat out everynite, your mum tak masak ke?
My mum cooks everyday for us - kita suma balik kerja eat at my mum's place then baru balik rumah.

Weekends we eat out or I cook simple dishes pasal my mum off - tak jaga Fayaa and tak masak for us, kesian dia hari2 masak untuk kita so penat.
