Ironic Eh..?

A week or two ago, PB’s oldest friend came to visit .. with his new born. Last week, his ex-wife came in with her new husband .. and she is having twins..!!! woohoo..!! twins..!! i told yer.. its the water here..!! Both are friends of us.. and i can’t imagine what they would do .. if they met each other with their own spouses now.

Whenever, a marriage or relationship fail.. both party has got to take responsibility .. but to say that they are faultless, any one party would definitely make me think what was going on in the mind of that person. No one is flawless or faultless especially in a failed relationship. What do you think..?? For me.. if my relationship fails.. it’s because I’ve put out so much.. and when I am either hurt.. or feel that it’s useless to even try anymore.. I give up. Of course, if any of my relationship failed, I feel that I’m at fault as well. I asked PB .. can ppl fall outta love .. when they were so “in love” once upon a time?? His answer..?? “they probably weren’t very much in love at all” or “never was”. What is your take on it..??

A Tag Kirium For Christmas

Photobucket

Christmas is around the corner again and getting presents for the man can be really hard at times. First of all, the only things he likes are not within my price range and secondly, he already has too many “toys” if you know what I mean. But I’m all for getting him a Tag Kirium, if he would let me. Tag Heuer watches are good for any occasion and for as long as I can remember they’ve always been my favorite. I remember when I first started working and I would be walking around Takashimaya Shopping Center and hanging around outside of Tag Heuer’s boutique there, admiring the watches.

Besides being synonymous to best quality and great workmanship, Tag Heuer watches are known for being very sturdy. I have one for myself that travels with me where ever I go. Whether I was inspecting a hotel or attending a cocktail in the hotel I used to work for, Tag’s are never out of place nor out of fashion. The selection at the Watchery is not only huge, the prices are very tempting. At almost half the price of what I would be paying for them back home, here they pass the savings to folks like you and I because they are not required to follow controlled prices like the authorized dealers are.

I would also like to add that the watches sold are 100% genuine and given the excellent rating on eBay with over 1600 transactions completed, one can see that they are reliable and trustworthy.

An Over Zealous Friend

So what do you do ..?? when your kid has an over zealous friend..?? in fact .. not one but two. I know they don’t mean any harm nor want to hurt the brat.. but Chloe never plays rough .. because we never allow it. If you say to her…. “yer not allowed” or “that isn’t very nice” .. she will stop immediately and might even start crying.

One would insist on wearing her coat for her.. even though she said no.. and the other would insist on hugging her tightly and lifting her up the floor. We all know that kids don’t know any better.. and I don’t want my kid to be hurt. So what would you do..?? especially if her parents were there.. and we were there too. We try to see beyond the “getting hurt” part.. but even when the kid’s dad told him not to.. he carried on hugging chloe really tight.. and lifting her up the floor.

Don’t Worry Mom

Photobucket

As much as I would love to bathe Chloe .. it does take a little bit of toll on my tummy even after 5 months of recovery since my operation. But now that I feel better and when Keegan or PB isn’t around I will bathe her. But before I can bathe her.. i have to scrub the bath-tub thoroughly… and that itself can be really painful.. since a lot of bending over is necessary.

Photobucket

Today, after our little game of recognising the alphabets .. and getting ready to bathe, Chloe said to me.. ” Don’t worry mom, I will scrub the tub for you. So you don’t have to bend over so much!” a matter of factly way.

Photobucket

As you can see she was pretty earnest about it too. Sprayed the organic stuff .. into the bath-tub and started scrubbing and all. Ain’t she a lovely kid..?? Yes..!! what a very sensitive and sensible kid. Oh by the way, if you want to learn French .. you should head over to Chloe’s blog.

Christmas Gifts

Christmas is just round the corner and if you know me and PB well, you know that we are master procrastinators when it comes to Christmas gift shopping. Not that we hate shopping or Christmas, it’s because we own our own business and like everywhere else in the world Christmas is the busiest time for us. Since we have lots friends in the United States, it is the season of giving and showing love even though we are so far away and unable to be together.

As far as I know no one refuses Christmas chocolate gifts, even those who are allergic to chocolate. After all if they can’t eat it, they can always share it with someone in the family or party/gathering during this holiday season. With such a large selection to choose from one should have no problem picking up a gift online for the extended family or business associates. What I like best about Oh! Nuts is that they are Kosher, and for those who are not sure what it means, it is food that’s fit for consuming by your Muslim friends. I feel absolutely confident shopping for my Muslim friends here. I wish they shipped internationally, but at the moment I can only be content with sending these chocolates, dried fruits and nuts, to my friends in the States.

Moving & Kids

I can’t imagine relocating with kids tagging along. 8 yrs ago, when i moved here.. it wasn’t even planned.. yet it was already so much things i had to bring with me.. for a few months vacation. Little did i know that it would turn permanent. But my girlfriend, Lara and her husband and two kids, they relocated quite abit and if you are like them, you probably want to talk to mover NYC for a stressless move. But is there such as thing as a stressless move..?? I don’t really think so.. but if planning and help can lessen the load.. why not right..?? delegation is the key word.. according to moving professionals.. like my g/f .. Lara.

Tattoos & Kids

Photobucket

Would you let your kids have a tattoo.. ?? that’s the main question of my post. What is your take on this subject.. ?? as for myself.. as modern as I am.. i don’t think i would like the idea of my kid having a tattoo. Yes.. no harm done.. but what is the purpose of a tattoo anyways..? to beautify oneself..?? by destroying your body with foreign ink.. and chemicals..?? I have nothing against .. adults having tattoos put onto their body. .mind you .. afterall.. they are old enough to think for themselves ( or so you wanna think ) but some adults are much, much more childish about than the kids around here.

Photobucket

But yes.. if your 18 yrs old wanted a tattoo.. what is your answer or response..?? shocked..?? amused..?? or utterly disappointed.. or confused..?? or you are cool with it..?? Me .. i never liked pain.. so i cannot understand.. why someone would go hurt themselves with some ugly and permanent stuff. As for me.. when Chloe is 18 and wants a tattoo.. i will definitely try to dissuade her.. and suggest a removable one..?? She might agree.. and she might not.. but i’m gonna darn try real hard.. to not let her… without getting into a fight with her. As for Katelynn.. our babysitter.. the first one.. i was cool with it.. the second one. . i wasn’t too pleased.. but she ain’t my kid.. so i can’t smack her over the head… muahahhahahaha!!!
