And My Journey Thru' Breast Cancer
This is the tent we were talking about.. that we bought for our brat to play in….. it comes in 3 pieces.. and has a long tunnel to it.. but we are only bringing out one piece at a time.. that way.. we can keep her interested for a long time.. plus we have no space.. to put the three pieces of tent, tunnel and smaller tent in the living room.
I stayed awake and not go back to bed this morning..even though i only had 3 hrs of sleep because Papa BoK had .. made this remark .. that he would have woken me up.. 2 days ago.. from my nap earlier.. had he known that i had already slept some during the nite instead of letting me sleep till 1pm, so that he can get more things done.
So .. yesterday.. even though i only had 3 hrs of sleep ….. i stayed awake.. because i was very “teik kee” meaning .. stubborn.. and obstinate in hokkien. So that Papa BoK wouldn’t have to waste his precious time.. and get more done.
Verdict/and the result..??? nope.. same amount of work done.. and same amount of time spent in the store. So what i tell ya.. ??? i’m seldom wrong.. hahahhahahaha!!!
Yaya.. i am very “teik kee”. And i was groggy the whole day.. but still “tahan” and did everything.. !! fed the brat 3 meals ..today.. and bathed her.. all alone.. and put her down for a nap.. and even managed to jump into the shower. So yes..!! i’m a Super-Woman..!!! and a very “teik – kee” one..!!! for the records..!
I sounded out my MIL about us thinking of going back to Asia…. since the economy .. and the workers we have are anal.. and i really do miss home too and the food of course..!! .
I know my in laws wouldn’t be too, too happy if we go back to Asia. For one thing.. i will be depriving them of their only grandchild .. and also their eldest son. I know my in-laws will miss both of them ALOT..!! and as much as i hate doing it……. we might just really have to go back to Asia for our sanity sake, for i cannot get over the fact.. that the EMPLOYEES are always right.. and protected by so many shitty laws here….. be it the Human Rights or Labour Codes. The employment laws are not FOR the employers.. that i can tell you. And I hate the fact.. that it seems that I’m always doing the fighting for the business. I feel very vulnerable here… ! I feel like my hands and legs are tied here.. with regards to our workers/customers.

I had a better day today. We went to visit my in-laws.
Not a long visit .. but it was good.. 🙂 The brat just loves it.. and insisted on going outdoors.. and chasing cats. We got to see Aunt Helena too.. so that was great.. 🙂
But when we came home.. i was unusually tired.. and had to rush to vacuum the floors.. because the brat plays both in the living room and the computer room ALOT.
Daddy helped to do laundry and folded them.
All in all it was a good day.. I didn’t have to deal with any crack heads… *shrug*
Papa BoK brought me and our brat to Mickey Dee for breakfast this morning.. and i had a big breakfast with coffee..and Papa BoK had his usual hotcakes.. 🙂
He usually eat two pieces.. and i eat the other.. 🙂 And yes.. i’m a glutton.
Our brat played on her own..almost all the time.. when there was a sweet little gal around.. but as soon as she left..she came over asking for attention again.
I’m also proud that Papa BoK .. didn’t talk very much to his “chu peng goa yu” the one who always takes advantage of Papa BoK’s goodness .. and never ever do anything for us in return.
Papa BoK talked to him very briefly and that was it. But i think the only reason why Papa BoK didn’t say much.. because i was there…coz’ he knows how cheezed off i am with this “old” friend.
First snow on Remembrance Day..!! Started Early this year..!!! Arrrrghhhhhhhhhh..!! and it was cold. .the whole day..!! bummer..!!
It’s Remembrance Day today and last year at this time.. i was very thankful to God.. for everything that was happening in our life.
We bought our new house.. and our ex-employee who was nothing but trouble left without giving notice and then went on to claim unemployment citing that I wrote about her whole life on my blog.
The unemployment office gave her .. her charity cheques of course.. citing reasonable doubts.. and thus playing into her hand because she told the poor lady .. that her hubs and her spilt up (which of course is a lie).
Today as i remember the events that happened last year leading to the ex-worker.. i cannot thank God enough.. that she left.
So lest i forget… God works in mysterious way.. had she not left the business, we would never have fired her.. because we would have tolerated her nonsence.. ! so i thank God.. every Remembrance Day.. for letting her go crazy… and leaving the store .. the way she did.
As far as I am concern, this ex-worker of mine … is nothing but white trash..! And i never say anyone is a white trash before… but this one definitely is.
PS: You probably ask why we hired her right..?? Well.. she literally begged for the job.. and we took pity on her.. and see what we got in return…??? A foul mouth gossiper.. and a good for nothing person.
A different kinda show. I like it.. it was strange.. but fun to watch.. 😉
A kid’s movie to be exact.. 😉
A definitely CAN watch..! after all it’s a Johnny Depp.. right..??
Sometimes.. i am so anxious to eat my ice.. that i set the tray of ice.. right in front of my puter.. and dig them out one by one.. to eat them.. hehehhe!!
It is actually such a funny sight.. to be honest..and Papa BoK.. i just found out .. that he hates that i crunch the ice..!!! OMG..!! I didn’t know that..!!
Soon to save his sanity.. i might have to give up ice altogether.. or chew/crunch on them.. in another room.. hahahaha!!
In case anyone out there.. think that i so stylo-malo.. and run the business.. household.. without any help… i have to let you all know.. that it is not true..!
For the business.. PapaBoK.. usually does all the hard work.. meaning.. the brains/computer and anything that needs knocking or building.. or any heavy lifting…. i’m only doing PR with the customer/s and the staff.. and do some paperwork.. for Papa BoK.. and “layang” with supplier.. when i need to “hegger” about prices.
At home… Papa BoK help with our brat.. 50% .. on top of it.. do the filling up of the bottles.. and mopping the floor.. scrub toilet bowl.. vacuum.. do folding of laundry.. and bringing laundry down to get it washed……. and also do garbage.. every Thursday. Most of the time.. PapaBoK does the brat’s poopie.. because he is up with her in the mornings.
