A few days ago .. it was snowing hard since midnite… And it was – 22 degree celcius then, but guess what..?? the school was opened..!!! yup..!! crazy schools in the county.. only closes.. when it doesn’t snow.. and when.. it’s blowing like crazy.. and the schools are up and running. How crazy is that..! The town is crazy.. and run by crazy ppl.
Fighting Her Sleep
For those who donch already know.. the brat never takes a nap..!! but of late.. she doesn’t wanna sleep till about 1am. Yes..!! yer heard me right..!! 1am..!! by 12.30am every nite.. PB and my patience would be already running out.. and we try.. and try our best.. not to raise our voices… but the girl .. test our patience and push it.. every nite.. and so the screaming starts.. and the crying starts.. and then she wants hugs.. because she can’t sleep if we were mad with her.. and then it pushes till about 1am.. or thereafter.. before she would go to bed. Leaving both PB and I to do housework.. and cooking.. and of course paperwork.. and some online opps.
We sleep at 4am in the morning.. sometimes later.. depending on how much work needs to be done.. because mopping, vaccuming.. cleaning up her toys.. and doing dishes.. and then doing her bottles.. all takes time. And then we make a snack before we sleep.. and if we are lucky we get a full 5 – 6hrs of sleep. Sometimes, the brat wakes up a few times.. and whats worst..she insist you sit on the puter and work.. and not go back to your bedroom.. else she would be up every 45mins or so. So for those whose kids sleeps at anytime before 10pm.. count your blessings.. and for those who have one or two nites bad.. count your blessings too… for we .. yours truly.. never get as much rest ever .. since the brat was born.
Crying & Waking
After a few nites of not waking up in the middle of the nite.. PB & i thought that the brat would finally behave like a normal toddler. Little did we expect crying and screaming this morning at 6.30am. Refused to walk .. wanted PB to carry her.. had some milky.. and when i asked her what’s wrong.. she said .. “don’t talk to me.. ! i’m sick!” and rolled around.. and went to bed again.. but not without waking up a few times.. to make sure that i was working on my puter. Go figure..!
Dense
Usually I mind my own business.. when it comes to other bloggers but with the recent sensation of one Malaysia’s Minister caught in the act of indiscretion, i chanced upon a comment left on another blogger’s entry.
This was the comment left “The wife is so ugly”
Did the blogger who left the comment meant.. that because the wife is so ugly.. so it is alright.. for the man to have an affair..?? Or did the blogger mean.. the wife is so ugly.. therefore the man went out to have an affair..?? However I tried to decipher and comprehend.. what was meant.. what had the wife being ugly gotta do with the man going out for an affair…??
So if we think that the blogger who wrote this comment is ugly .. and her husband had an affair.. in the later years.. it is OK..??? How dense can someone get..?? I’m shocked that someone can say or think something like that. My first reaction was .. OMG..!! some ppl can be so STUPID..! I hope for her sake.. that many years down the road.. when her hubby turns 60 .. and have an affair.. he wouldn’t used “My wife is so UGLY” as an excuse.
Oh My Lotus..!!
No lah..!! not the lotus car..! This is even more priceless than the lotus car.
I almost cried.. thinking of what PB did to my lotus.. *sob, sob*.. and it’s the truth.. and nothing but the truth. I asked PB .. “hey .. papa.. where’s my lotus..??” and guess what he said…??? *Slapped my forehead” Yup..! he left it on the basement staircase.. instead of putting them into the fridge..! Aiyoyo..!!! really can cry you know there and then. But i managed to salvage some to make just one pot of soup.. instead of 2 that i had planned.
Yah.. my lotus roots are VERY important..!!
What To Do..??
When you child wakes up every nite at 4am in the morning.. ?? Not very much .. but to bear with it..and hope she goes back to bed .. without much fuss. No matter.. what we do.. threatened her.. bribe her.. cajole her.. nothing seems to help.
So we go with the flow.. and let her be.. and hope for the best.. and for the day.. where she would sleep the whole nite.. not just 1 nite.. not 2.. but always. And count our blessings.. that she is healthy.. and overall a good kid. A very wise advice .. from a mummy of a 4 yr old.. who refuses to sleep the whole nite.
Sniffy Chloe
The furnace at the store was acting up a few mornings.. when we went to work. And even though Chloe had all her jacket on the whole day.. she still came home sniffing… and nose running .. and sneezing..! what a bummer…!! I was hoping .. she wouldn’t get sick on her actual birthday.. ! but she did..! what a real bummer eh..?? Even with protecting the brat with cold.. and all.. she still gotten the sniffles…. seriously, i donch understand.. how some parents can bring their kids out.. in such cold weather in a stroller.
Snowed All Day
What a terrible day today is..! so cold.. and snowing out all day. Weather forecast had said it was -5 .. but it sure feels like – 15..!! yup.. below freezing points folks..!! think you will like it..?? not me.. thank you very much ya..!! you can have all the snow you want.. in Asia. In fact this winter.. it seems alot more worst.. than last..! and it sure came early though.
Moms Are Hard To Please
Yes.. first i complained that we are not prepared for the brat’s party.. and when the man brought the brat to order her cake without me.. i got mad..! Afterall, which mummy wouldn’t want a part in picking up the birthday cake right..? Of course the man had his reasons. My fibroids were killing me today.. the whole afternoon.. and only eased off a few hours ago, so he thought he wouldn’t make me walk too much.. and went ahead to bring the brat to pick her own cake at the deli.
Ya.. ya..! i know he meant well.. and all.. blah.. blah.. blah..!! but i still wanna pick my daughter’s birthday cake.. period..! I’m entitled to it you know..! i’m the mummy..!!! First he deprived me of my first treat and tricking with my brat at Halloween .. and now the birthday cake..!! Now i donch even know how my brat’s birthday cake look like until Sunday. Bleh..!
Not Prepared
The brat’s birthday is just in a few days.. and we are ill-prepared for the party.. because my “thing” just started on Wednesday.. and as you all know .. i have it tough. PB gotta look after the businesses.. so there is really nothing that we’ve done yet.
The birthday cake is yet to be ordered.. although PB had wanted to order it over the phone .. but i insisted that we bring the brat to the deli to let her choose what kinda cake pattern she wants. Party favours need to be bought.. and of course the curtain we bought for the window in our bedroom still haven’t been hung.. coz’ we needed new curtain rods… yet to be bought too. Yup..!! that’s how it is.. when i am not feeling too good. PB needs to be told .. exactly what to do.
