Believe it or Not

Yes.. believe it or not.. our kids.. are a splitting image of us. Like it or not.. they are what we are. So if your kids behave a certain way.. you know.. and admit it.. it’s you.. and your spouse.

Yesterday afternoon, while eating home cooked udon, the brat asked for Pepsi (we only give her a tiny bit if she does have it). We ignored her at first.. and when she asked again.. PB said.. he’ll think about it. And again we ignored her on purpose.

Guess what happened next..?? The brat called out.. “HALLLLL OOOWW..!! can i have my pepsi please.. ???” That sent me laughing so hard.. !! yer know why..?? coz’ this is exactly how PB and I talk.. if we wanted attention.. or telling anyone.. that they are not paying attention to us. MUAHHAHAHAHAHA!!! It’s the way the brat said it.. that made it so funny.. coz’ it is the exact way we would have said it.. kinda dry sarcastic manner. if you know what i mean.

So folks.. donch say .. no .. when your kids behave in a certain way.. examine yourself first.. before pointing fingers.

Bringing Back The Confidence

Once upon a time, when people talk about cosmetic surgery, they associate them with movie stars or someone famous or someone rich. Well, in this day and time, it is far from the truth because one need not be all of the above to want a tummy tuck or a breast uplift.

As a woman of 43yrs old, one notices the change in everything in your body and your skin. My once upon a time “chinese” eyes came with a double eyelid not because my eyes got bigger but because the skin around my eyes got droopy. Hard as it is to admit, you and I know that, that is the truth. And to gain back one self confidence and to reward oneself, I really see no harm in getting some assistance.

But for any surgery, one wants to choose a medical institution that you can trust, and SurgiCare who has 15 yrs of experience in independent surgical procedures, has a reputation because of their most respected surgeons in the UK. Offering the highest clinical excellence during and before each procedure, you can expect the best care you can’t find elsewhere.
SurgiCare is a name you can trust. With over 15 years’ experience in independent surgical procedures, our reputation precedes us. Employing some of the most respected surgeons in the UK, we guard this reputation by getting closer to our patients and insisting on the highest standards of clinical excellence before, during and after your procedure.

Totally confident in their ability to perform the chosen procedure and totally honest about every detail of any procedure is what i admire most of them. Absolutely no pressure in trying to sell you their procedure, they let you take your time to decide and on what you think is best for you. What’s more, they have finance packages for your procedures as well.

Passionate About The Town

We usually keep to ourselves .. alot .. especially if we are not at work. But as you can see, PB & I can be quite passionate, if we feel that something isn’t right in this town. You can see what PB wrote here.

I, myself have spoken to many people in this town, at the store.. and I know that they are not happy about the new municipality building… but they are not doing anything about it.. because they don’t feel that even if they opposed, anything will be done about it. Personally, they feel that the town councils had already made up their mind and there is no turning back.

So this is a communist town..?? no democracy here i see..?? I thought only in Cambodia.. or Iraq or Sudan you see things like this but here in Canada..?? Is anyone out there.. who is bigger than the town councils… here have a say in it..??

One claimed they wanted a building to be proud of..?? for who..? investors..?? tourists..??? I donch get it.. ! ya.. maybe i’m STUPID..! but i still donch see the point..!

Thoughtful Child

Every child gets cranky and naughty at different time but I’ll have to say.. that we must be doing something right.. because the brat of mine is very thoughtful..!

Take for example tonite.. while i was getting her food ready for dinner.. and she needed to go pee-pee. She shouted to say that the toilet paper was running out.. and i had told her i would come and help her.. but she said.. “no need mum..! i already got another one just for you.. !”

Tell me that isn’t cute..?? she got the extra toilet paper for me.. 😉 and mummy didn’t prepare the extra for her.. but she in turned prepared it for me.. 😉 muahahah!! that’s too cute. 😉

Private Jet Charters

Flying economy class is uncomfortable at best unless the flight is very short. Going from here to Halifax is only a little over a half hour, so even though the plane is small, it’s bearable. Going across the country though and being in the air for 4 or 5 hours in a small seat is certainly no fun. Upgrading to business class almost quadruples the price, which makes Private Jet charters look like a more attractive option. Granted if you’re flying alone, the price may not be worth it, but if you’re traveling with a group or family members and can split the cost of the trip, you may find that a private jet really isn’t that expensive after all.

New Flight Charters has been specializing in Private Jets for a number of years now and is one of the largest providers of on-demand luxury jets in a wide variety of styles and price ranges. With an accident free record, they are one of the safest carriers in the world today. Round trip airfare starts as low as $950* per hour for an Executive Turbo Prop all the way up to $7,000* per hour for a large cabin jet such as a Gulfstream V. Pick your plane, get a quote and let New Flight Charters do the rest. Their price quotes include everything so there are no surprises later.

Did You Eat In Macdonalds Lately

If you are in Calgary and ate at McDonald’s between Oct. 1 and Oct. 23, you may have been exposed to Hep A. A food handler at a Calgary McDonald’s was confirmed to have the infectious disease. They closed the restaurant for several hours in order to dispose of anything that may have become contaminated and to disinfect the building. The risk is low but the health department is offering free vaccinations to anyone who may have come in contact with contaminated food. Hepatitis A is a virus which attacks the liver and can be spread by food handlers if they fail to properly wash their hands after using the washroom.

Cleaning The Store

I’m sharing my home vacuum with the store, not because we are stingy to get another one.. but because each time we get an upright and bagless one, they just don’t last at all. Plus for the amount of money we spent so far on vacuum cleaner.. and only have them work for a little more than a month .. it’s just not worth it. We tried to bring the vacuum cleaner back to the store we bought it from, to only be told that they only warranty it for a month, afterwhich we needed to send it back to the manufacturer…! NICE..!

Anyhow, we are going to try a new brand this time, can’t be sharing my vacuum with the store forever, afterall, the house needs the vacuum too right. Miele vacuum, have models that are both affordable and on the high end side, but i can only afford the affordable one.

Bak Kut Teh With Liver

I had everything all planned out, to make Bak Kut Teh with liver tonite. Well.. i did make my Bak Kut Teh, in the slow cooker and was all ready to eat when we got home. And of course, i would have to cook some rice to go with it which i did.

An hour later, when i was getting food ready for the brat for dinner, and wanted to scoop the rice, guess what..?? i didn’t press the “on” switch to cook the rice..!! so i panic.. chloe was hungry.. and i forgot all about the liver..!! what a bummer ..!!! and i didn’t even get ginger to stir fry the ginger instead..!! So there goes my ultra plan .. for Bak Kut Teh with liver.. like what i saw in some floggers blog.

Shopping For The Man

The man does not like to dress up, not even for work. I’ve told him time and again, that the old chinese saying goes “people first see what you are dressed in.. before seeing you as a person”. Even buying shirts and pants, i need to keep harping at him.. to go get some extras or new ones. So much so that after being together for 7 yrs.. i too am being a real slacker when it comes to dressing up. But try as i might, he just wouldn’t dress up..!
