We had been trying to let Sherry goes diaperless but of cos it at her own pace. We had done the fair share of toilet training but we realized that she feels very stressful about it. That’s where we decided to let her do it on her own.
She had only gone diaperless in the evening when I’m home. The reason being at least there is another pair of eyes and extra pair of hands to help when she pee. We are worried that either one of them might just slipped and fall when there’s not enough help. So whenever I’m back, MIL will let her go diaperless for that evening, which is like about an hour or two before bedtime. Although she does not really know how to tell us when she wants to pee, but I guess, all these take time. She will know it eventually, its just a matter of time. Keke..
I guess the next big step will be how to train her to sit on the potty to do her big business. This is something that she is so afraid off…

Black weekend
No, it’s not the weather; it’s my hubby’s face.
First, it was on Saturday that we had a little argument. It all started with his precious car again. Hai… Sometimes, I just feel that he had done so much for his car and even spend lots of his time there. How I wish he could spend some with Sherry or with me. I just feel that we are secondary to his precious car, or I should put it this way, I’m always the last come to his car, his car clubs and a long list which include Sherry way before me… hai… I just feel that am such a failure as a wife. He is always more into the things for his precious car.
I was not feeling well since I woke up on Saturday morning. The pain on my back was killing me. So I took the opportunity to have a little nap while he looks after Sherry (its like 10 mins) . But after I woke up, he just went downstairs and don’t know do what to his car. He will always say, look at things lor, or nothing lah.. hai.. There must be something right. Anyway, just after he had spent about an hour there, he came up and tell me he is going to wash his car which he will definitely take another 4 hours away from home. So I was pissed and told him off. Of cos he is unhappy with me. No matter how I chased him off he just refused and of cos with a black black face. That night, we just went off to bed without talking.
Come Sunday, we had to go to my granny hours for prayers. I guess he had not gotten over what happened on Saturday, he was pretty cold towards me. He just did what he supposed to do and then sat there and we also did not talk much. When things started to be better, he found a dent on his precious car! He was heart broken and also very angry with whoever had done that! He had been looking out from the balcony throughout the day but he never realized that there was such a dent! It was quite a deep dent! He again put on a black face! Hai…. Somebody help me… :(

Blessing in Disguise
After hearing what my mummy says about my granny, I was so worried for her. Hai... all the negative thoughts come rushing into my mind! Especially when there’s a history of liver cancer that runs in the family, (my grand-uncle, whom is her youngest brother, recently died of that).
I called my auntie Peggy when I was on my way home, last evening. She will have the latest information as granny is now staying with her for the time being. She told me that they had just collected the blood test result. It has turned out to be that my granny is suffering from thyroid problem. The doctor will have to do another blood test to determine the stage of her problem and also what type of medication to be given to her. I cannot say that we are totally pleased with the result but we are all very glad that it was not we thought it would have been. The doctor also mentioned that they cannot find any cancerous cells in her liver, lungs & bones, which is the best news for us.
If anything was to happen to my granny, this will be the first encounter and I’m not sure how would I handle all these? I’m aware that death to come to all but I just hope it does not come so fast. Hai...

1 month ago
Exactly 1 month ago was the first day of my little princess Right Start class. We were so worried that she would not be able to cope and reject the class totally. But she really surprised us! Not only that she has been enjoying the class, she begins to be more open up and able to socialize and not that afraid of strangers. This is the most drastic change I notice in her.
In fact, all along, we know that she is a very bright girl but is being too protected by her granny & daddy. The person that is over protective is not granny, it’s her daddy whom always thinks that his little girl has not grown up or will not grow up. He has been restricting exposure to her. Can u gals believe it, my little princess, who is 2 years old and had not gone to the zoo before? OH MY GOODNESS!! I can never bring this up cos he will definitely flare at me.
Anyhow, he is convinced how much wonders can the school teach! Let’s see how she get along for the next few months.

For Once!
This is really for once I’m sitting with nothing much in the tray! That is I’m only doing a little filing here & there and also solving some invoicing issues that are not very urgent. I had managed to clear up my entire backlog and waiting for new assignments to be allocated to me. Guess, there will be more work handing over from June’s side since she is leaving in a months’ time, unless my FC wants to get someone else to take over. Well, its all up to him. But let me enjoy the ‘free’ time I have now… Kekeke…

So sweet hor...
I was not in my own chirpy self today. I was woken up by this terrible tummy ache @ 5am this morning. Knowing that I’m unable to hold on any longer quickly went to the washroom. After doing what is supposed to do, I did not want to wake hubby up so slept in the master room before the alarm went off.
It went off @ 615am and I’m still manage to snooze for a little while like ten minutes. After washing all the things and get ready all the vitamins for hubby & the yummy bears for Sherry, I’m still managed to doze off for a good 5 minutes before hubby came in and asked me what’s wrong. I was never like this before, he was pretty worried. I told him what happened in the morning and he asked me to take a day off, but I was feeling better after taking his medication so we just proceed off to work.
I must have been so tired that I dozed off on the way to work. He only wakes me when we are reaching the coffee shop where we usually get our breakfast. I did not want to eat so we just drive off to the office directly. Before I alighted from the office, he told me, go n see the doctor if u are still not well. So sweet hor. Kekeke…
At around 10 plus, he called and check if am feeling better… Kekeke… Looks like I do not need any medication liao… Kekeke…

Full time weekend mummy
MIL had gone a short trip to Malaysia with her friends. What a wonderful weekend. I know it so bad of me to feel this way, but this is the only time where I can really spend quality time with my little one without her clinging to MIL!
We had quite an enjoyable weekend, this girl din even look for MIL when she was away. Dunno what to say abt her! Although, she did not have things her way as much as she wanted but overall, we are enjoying the time as a family.
I went marketing on Sunday to get some vegetables for Sherry and also our breakfast. After which I was in the kitchen busy cooking lunch for all of us.
How I really wish that it will like this every week, I know its too much to ask after what my MIL had done for me. But this is the only time, we can bond as a family.

Angry with Sherry
He was super angry with Sherry. I had never hear him raised his voice @ her not to mentioned about raising his hands @ her. She must have pushed his patience over the limit.
He was feeding Sherry lunch while I was in the kitchen cooking porridge. I was walking in and out of the living room and hear him asking her to swollow her food in the mouth. She simply ignored his words. He got so angry after asking her many times and finally, a slap on the thighs! And of cos that girl wail so loudly for me! I went there not to pacify her but brought her to the kitchen and threw away the whole bowl of porridge! I know I should have pacify her first but I was also boiling mad on this bad habit!
Anyhow, after all these drama, we gave her some water, stood by the stand that she will have to go hungry. She really fell asleep and by the time she woke up, she gobbled the bottle of 7 oz milk (for once)..

Bonus again!!!
Yesterday, my FC had mentioned to me that I’ll be given bonus for the first 5 months of the year 2006 too!!!! This news really brightens up my evening. He did mention something like USD975 but I wasn’t pay attention as the word bonus had already filled up my ears & mind!! Kekeke… He also said that there will be a bigger pay out (like USD2K) for the year 2006 is we can meet our compliance by Nov 2006. keke…
Of cos I’m happy about the extra money I’m getting but what makes me happier is that my FC appreciates my work and is happy with my performance. The first pay out will be in the month of August… Yippie!!!

Busy (more likely to be lazy)
Yes, I had not been updating my blog as constantly as I did previous. Firstly, ever since I had been converted to permanent, there’s an increase in my workload that makes it difficult cos I still had to meet my dateline to go back home in time. Secondly, I feel that I’m getting lazier each day, cos there are not much of ‘important’ issues happening except for my little one @ school.
Of cos, I’ll try to blog as much as possible to capture all the interesting things that had happened.

Super Cranky & Sticky Week
This a horrible week for me again. Sherry had been super sticky to MIL! Hai... what can I say, one of them, just want to stick and the other one does not want to let go. Have anyone come across that, the daughter does not want her own mummy? NO?? I can tell you, there is, and she is my Sherry. After I had done so much for her, she still does not want me, can anyone imagine how hurt I was for the past week! The worst thing is Hubby does not think like me. (do all man think alike??)
When I scold Sherry at my mum's place, he even changelled me to carry Sherry back instead of her being carried away by my mum! I did that to his mum only when she is over protective and had been letting Sherry had her own way!!! I was so upset with his thoughts and told him off that once a week pampering will no harm the kid, its the everyday issue!!! Hai, how come things will turn out this way!!!
I had to tell MIL again that she has to try to let go of Sherry but she just shift the blame to Sherry. She told me that Sherry cannot do without her. But I insisted and told her, I'm the mummy, is there any kids that refused her mummy after what I had done???? There isn't right! So why don't we just try, if she let go and yet Sherry still does not want me, then I have nothing to say!!!
But I really does not wish that to happen, so I just have to keep my fingers cross that MIL kept her promise and stay away from Sherry when its my shift.

Routined Sat & Rested Sun
Saturday, we went back to mum’s place pretty late as sister was not home and I wanted my mum to have more rest since she was not very well. We left home in the evening at the same time; we buy dinner back for them too.
Sunday was a stay at home day as Sherry had just caught the flu bug. We fed her some medication and make sure she has lots of rest as I do not want her to miss school on Tuesday. I do not want her to break the routine since she is coping well.
