Nice Ppl

Having written about being constantly stalked by fucktards of this small town….i have to clarify and let everyone from home know.. that there are really nice ppl here too.

For example, on Monday, a regular customer came in to let me know that he was leaving for the city on Tuesday .. weather permitting .. and coming home on Wednesday .. and if i needed my chinese food to call ahead to the grocery store..to order my food.. and he will pick them up for me.. 🙂 Now isn’t that nice.. or what..??? and so generous of my regular customer. He needn’t do that.. but he did.. and i’m forever grateful to him.. for being so thoughtful..!

Another customer was in on Monday nite.. telling me that he was up in the city .. and had tried to get the tea that i liked .. from the Asian Grocery store for me.. but the shop owner cannot remember what i take for my tea.. fearing that it was chinese tea that i wanted.. hahahah!! so he couldn’t get me any. So yes.. another very nice customer .. who went out and beyond.. to help me.

So yes.. i get to have some stalkers.. and some inconsiderate fools.. but there are nice ppl around.. who does make my life.. a happier one.

Giving Back

My good neighbour is having a baby really soon in say about 8 weeks. We have always had an amicable relationship.. and both husband and wife are the least intrusive ppl we’ve met. They go about doing their own things.. and they never disturb our privacy.. and a very sensible couple i must say.

Anyhow, a week ago, while chatting with my neighbour .. i offered my help/assistance at anytime, should she need any . .when the baby arrives. Knowing how blur i was .. when I had Chloe, so i was only too glad and totally relieved/grateful .. when my MIL came to stay with us. It really, really helped to have someone around .. when the baby is first here.

My neighbour was very happy with my offer.. and even though i know they would do fine.. without our help.. it was good to offer.. it makes me feel like i am giving back .. what my MIL has given to us.. to someone who might need help. It feels really good to be able to extend a helping hand.

Different Upbringings

I was being brought up in a very traditional culture.. where the woman’s clothings must not be washed with the men/boys clothings. It has to be separated.. for it was a taboo .. to be washing them together.. ! Women in my family are considered to be “dirty”, yes. .even by my own mother..! How incredible is that right..???

Of course i washed all my clothes with Papa BoK’s and Chloe .. but there are some things that i would never ask Papa BoK to do.. although he doesn’t mind doing it. Some of the things includes buying feminine stuff. Hahhaaa!! wierd eh..?? but ya.. can’t change the bad habit.. but yes.. i donch like to ask Papa BoK to do it at all. But i had no choice today.. since we had to man the store on our own.. and only Papa BoK is driving. So poor Papa BoK .. he did get the stuff i needed.. but not the same brand.. and not the one that i want.. but hey..! how to complain right..?? afterall…. he already went to buy the stuff that can be quite embarrassing for a man.. to buy . .when he is alone.. heh!!

Had i married someone from home… i bet i would have kenna sweared upside down .. inside out .. by my spouse’s mother or sisters. Heng ah..!!

25 Months Old

My Dearest Chloe,

You have just turned 25 months old a few days ago. Mummy loves you more and more each day and everyday, I can’t wait to come home from the store.. to see you .. and to be greeted by your loud squealing of “Mummmmmy…! or Dadddyyy..!!” You are such a joy .. to see at the end of a long day for us.

You’ve grown so much in terms of speech.. and eating. You eat so well now.. with your noodles.. and rice.. and you just love Tim’s yogurt so much. You’ve also learnt to recognise alot of ppl now. .and can even call “sarah” by her name.. as soon as you go into the store.

Overall, you are a very good gal. .except for not wanting to sleep the whole nite still. Just the other day.. you fell outta your toddler’s bed.. and boy ! was mummy freaked out. Good thing Daddy woke up to calm both you and I down.

This is a loaner from Gerald and Adele .. Sarah’s parents. I’m forever grateful to them.. because they are always so nice to us.. 🙂 We had asked Gerald if Sarah was still using hers because Chloe just wouldn’t sit still to eat at the store.. so before rushing out to buy another chair, we asked Gerald if he could loan us his .. if Sarah wasn’t using it. And he came thru’ for us.. and even delivered the chair. How i wished everyone is like Gerald and Adele. Thank you so much for everything..Gerald..and Adele..!

Do you remember the times.. when you try to bargain with God.. by telling him.. Dear Father, if you do this and this… i will go back to church.. i promise or Dear Father, if this and this turn out the way I want.. i promise to go back to church every Sunday.

Yes.. that’s me..! I’m very guilty..! when i needed God.. i always bargain with him and my God has never failed me.

I Thought Wrong

I thought i had it hard..!! Leaving home..and coming all the way to Canada.. and staying in this “ulu” town.. all in the name of love..for Papa BoK, till i read Gene’s Life as a Married Woman.

Actually, I have it real easy.. Papa BoK always.. always tries his utmost best… to please me.. and to accommodate me. But i very the bad one …. something so harmless and silly.. i can also scream at him.. like leaving the thawed chicken out for too long..! Can die or not..??
