A birthday full of surprises….

First surprise – 30 Oct

On Saturday, my sister, pin planned a small celebration for me. This really touched me and caught me by surprise!! She got 2 of her close knitting friends to my mum’s place and I thought they are only there to knit. Instead knitting was just an excuse the real reason that they are there was to celebrate my birthday for me!! She rushed to Hougang mall to get the cake and her friend Lynn got me a small bouquet of flowers and of course she has to complete these before I reached home after Sherry’s class. I really feel so touched cos she still go all out to get something for me! Thanks my dear sister and her friends too!!

Second surprise – 02 Nov

On the actual day, after sending Sherry to school, we went for a simple breakfast as we are heading out for lunch. We headed down to Golden Peony to have our dim sum lunch. The ambience is good and so is the food. After which, we went to Goldheart at Suntec City to shop for my present (birthday cum 10th wedding anniversary). We have been shopping for about 1 month but nothing seems to fit. Either it’s the price of the ring or we both don’t agree on something. Finally we saw something that we fancy but just that we might have to compromise on the quality which is something he does not like. So he came out with his specs to see if there is such a piece. After checking the system, the guy managed to find us something that is within our budget and also in accordance to his specs. So off he went to collect the ring from the main office. Meanwhile we shop around and went into Lee Hwa but nothing caught our eyes. At the same time, Goldheart call and told us to go back as they have already got the ring in the shop. We both loved the ring the moment we saw it! This is it! I found THE ring that we both like! Of course the price is too good to miss. He paid and we’ll collect it in a weeks time cos we need to re-sized the ring. Thanks a million, Hubby!!

Third Surprise – 03 Nov

I really got a shock when I’m back to office today. What is that sitting on my desk? OMG!! So sexy!! Haha…. All thanks to my bunch of buddies!! They had gotten me a sexy nightie with a match string!

I feel so blessed to have so lovely friends, family and of cos my hubby. You guys made this birthday one of the most memorable one for me!! Thanks a million!!

Improvement

Life has been back to normal and it has been so normal that it seems there are nothing special to update on.
Sherry has been attending e-phonics class for the past 2 months and she already show some improvement.. She is able to blend some words, well done my honey!! Mummy is so proud of you.

Negative thoughts - II

I just wonder, at times, why are we unable to communicate. Why do we have to just that kind of hurtful tone to speak to each other? Why can’t we just talk things out? Why things have to take such a turn? I have lost my speech whenever I’m home (besides chatting with my princess) I hardly talk. Why? Cos I dun find the necessity to do so. Usually he just chats on the phone with his colleague whom he has spent so much time with. He even have been sending him home almost everyday and he is not even staying in our vancity. I know I do sound silly and sourish, even some can feel the jealousy but that’s how exactly I feel. I know it will be very stupid of me to project this cos he will never feel that there is anything wrong with it. At first I dun feel anything wrong as I do share my closest and darkest secrets with my dear (in the office) too. But we do give each other space and privacy. We, women do know when to stop, we dun just keep talking and chatting even when we are home, cos we know that spending time with our family is very important. I would suppose that he should know this but this is not happening at home. I did mentioned this causally to him and instead of getting the picture, he has been unhappy about me making such a remarks and even give me cold shoulder. So I’ve learnt my lesson, talk only necessary. But to my dismay it is also wrong, also kena say that I ignoring when mil talking to me. Sigh… why is it so difficult?
I dunno how long this will last, I really dunno…. I’m really tired….

Negative thoughts - Part I

Lots of things happened and dunno where to start not to mention what to blog... Is part of my life that I do not wish to be reminded when I’m old? I really dunno. Lately, I have been feeling weird for the longest time. Am I tired, pissed and taken for granted, I’m already not sure about my own feelings. Don’t even ask me what has happened cos I’m also unable to pin to the problem. All these could have been snow balled to a stage where I dun even know how to manage. The one good thing is that I had not lost my motivation in life but I just dun like the feeling that has been lingering around me. I really dunno what’s wrong! So many things that have happened at home, anything that has to do with $$, we had tried our best to minimize the whole problem. In fact, the big bulk of it has already been paid off now what’s left are the monthly installments that are serviced by herself. I know its not easy but guess that’s the best I can help with my limited means. I have been lucky to have the extra gains to pay all those and not to burden myself as I can’t foresee that I’ve have to take on such heavy burden. The main reason for taking that up was because of my parents especially my dad. Until to-date I still can’t forgot the scene and the look of his face, the sadness in his eyes and his tears! Although I know that I have to move on but when I guess I need lots of time. This is something that cannot be rush. This is just one of the problems. I know its hard to move on but one still have to learn. Kinship is something so close to our heart, family are the ones that will not let go of us. So one has to learn how to appreciate them and not to say things that they are the one that force us into a suitation or that mould us into who we are now. I also believe that if one puts in effort and concern, one can turn the suitation around and not just to put the blame on others.

Sherry's 1st drawing for Mummy

Once a while, I'll received some colourings from my dear princess, but this time, she really caught me by surprise.

Sherry : Mummy this is for you.

Me : Did u draw this yourself? (sorry for doubting her)

Sherry : Yes, I did it all by myself. I draw everything then I colour them as well

Me : Wow!!! Well Done!!!

Sherry : Mummy this is our house, then we have 2 apple trees and a garden with flowers and that is

Daddy's blue car..

Me : But Daddy's car is silver not blue

Sherry : Daddy's next car will have to be blue.

Well, this girl is growing up so quickly that I don't seems to be able to catch up with her. Looks like I really have to pull up my socks now.. :p
