Change Yourself

So I saw a psychologist about my anxiety attacks – which I haven’t had for a long time now – but my family doctor figures I should talk to someone – and maybe – they can teach me methods to control my anxiety attacks – besides the medication I am taking. For those who are wondering – I had asked for treatment and medication on my own – because I pride myself as being able to identify a problem and try to nip its bud from the beginning. I didn’t want my anxiety attacks to affect chloe mostly because I had it bad the last time I experienced it.

Anyhow, at the back of my mind – I know exactly what the problem is – and all these years – I’ve been pushing it at the back of my mind. I’m able to identify the problem and I cannot ask PB to change for me – because I have in the past – so this time I’m going to change for myself and learn to take even greater care of myself first. I shall strive to have the “tidak apa” attitude from now on – and only do things that will first take care of myself. You cannot hope for others to help you – you have to change – only you can change yourself – to help with your health situation. So there – I realized that – and hope it isn’t too late. And yes – I missed home and my friends back home – the familiarity – the food – so I will strive to go home soon for a long visit. Wait for me Singapore!

Chloe & Her Binoculars

Last weekend – Chloe decided she wants to be Indiana Jones and do some exploring and also bird-watching. So when she was at her Grammie’s on Saturday – she and Aunt Helena went bird watching. She must have been using her binoculars a lot because she came back with right patches under her both eyes. She said she had so much fun – that on Sunday – she wanted to go again to her Grammie’s instead of the baby shower with me. But she also told me – she wants the same ncstar binoculars that her grampie has – and not a toy one. She said she prefers her grampie’s binoculars – because she can see better with them. hhahah!! So we told her to write to Santa about it – after all Christmas isn’t too far.

Tis’ That Time Of The Year Already !

Yes ! it’s that time of the year again and here you see Chloe’s grampie making me my very own pumpkin – how sweet! chloe was all excited when she brought it back on the weekend. You can’t carved the name on after it has grown – you have to crave it before it gets big.

And this is Chloe’s – nice eh – filled up the whole pumpkin with her name.

The Man & His Gadgets

PB decided that he would get an iphone this time since his cellphone’s contract is ending soon. Why he needs an iphone? he said it’s easier when we need to be out of town for a short while – we don’t need to bring our netbook – we can use the iphone to check our emails and go online. Killing two birds with one stone – so he said – plus it didn’t cost him an extra – just another 3 years contract – which he normally does anyways – no lost to him – he said. But with this new iphone – he will be getting an iphone warranty because knowing him – he may just break the glass screen from sitting on it – when he forgets to take it out of his pocket. I’m kinda excited to see the iphone too – after all, it’s a new gadget for me too – hehe!

She Wants To Be Mrs Robin Hood

Last night – PB and Chloe watched Man in Tights – yes ! the older version of Robin Hood while they were having supper together in the tv room. So Chloe decided that she wants to be Mrs Robin Hood for Halloween this year – muahhahaha!! too funny!! she told us last night that we have to get her a hat with feathers on it and also some green tights and green cape today. So yes – now I have to look for a Mrs Robin Hood costume and a few infant halloween costumes for the friend’s kids. I love those cute infant costumes – they are just too cute and once again – I wished we had dressed chloe up for Halloween when she was an infant. We didn’t because we were stuck in the store working when she was younger. But Chloe loves Halloween so much – not only the collecting of treats but the giving them out too. She told us this year – we have to have a bowl of treats and that we are to direct all kids to her – when they come knocking at the store.

Baby Shower Of A Friend

A customer of our store – turned into friend is having a baby shower today – I’m kinda excited because I don’t have many friends around here. I don’t know if it is just us – too busy – or people just don’t like to mix business with pleasure. But those who eventually become friends – become good friends – and they stay really good to us. This friend is the same – they are always looking out for us and taking care of Chloe. So when I was invited – I was only too glad to go – plus – I didn’t even procrastinate and gotten around to get the presents for them a week in advance – and a good thing we did – because as usual – things got pretty crazy here – and with Chloe having in service in school – meaning no school – so it worked out. More on the baby shower later – promise with lots of pictures.

Investing A Little

PB is always looking out for ways to make more money. While I’m not into taking risk – he wants to be the one who discover the next “Microsoft” shares. Who doesn’t want to own some of Microsoft shares right? And since we don’t know much about investing – there is this Forex mentoring program that PB is looking into – to learn more about investment. According to PB there are lessons, tutorials, live training in the charts included in this mentoring program and you get a real mentor too. You get to learn about trading concepts or strategies in this program – so if you are like PB new to trading in Forex – maybe you should look into this mentoring program too? we will update on it later – once we find out more – after taking the program.

Road Accidents

We have been hearing a lot about road accidents of late – and how Texas truck accident lawyer helped some of victims get compensated for their damages. Any accidents is hard on victims – who incidentally may lose their ability to work again – or lose their property or car – so yes – a good accident lawyer is important. I, too think that money cannot compensate everything – but one most definitely need to make the responsible party accountable. It would be sad to see someone get away for hurting another – even if it was not by choice. So yes! if you have a road accident – make sure you get the right lawyers to help and nope not all lawyers are equal.

Not Romantic But ..

Nope not romantic but he washes the toilet – nope not romantic ! but he vaccums the floor – nope not romantic but he cooks me hash browns for breakfast. Nope PB isn’t romantic nor a very thoughtful fella – he wouldn’t ask you if you were hungry or if you needed food. I guess he expects me to get my own food when I am hungry or say something when I am. If I asked him if he was hungry – he grunts – i think sometimes he tries to ignore my questions – so I asked him even more in the pretense that I had forgotten that I had already asked him. But yes – he does the necessary – sometimes – without being asked too – woohoo!!!

In any kind of relationship – I don’t know if there is one that is perfect – but on the other hand what kind of relationship do you want? Someone who is romantic but not responsible? someone who is romantic but doesn’t lift a finger to help with the housework or the kids? someone who is romantic but don’t pay the bills? But who doesn’t like to be serenaded, wine and dine and have romantic getaways right? but at this point in our life – while the money is coming in and we are paying the bills – that is how it is going to be for a while. In the meantime, I can always treat myself to a thing or two. Ssshhhh.. i did! muhahahaha!!!

Halloween Party Invitations

We are starting to receive our Halloween Party Invitations already and Halloween is a month away. Some people are really organized eh ? which makes me want to get our Christmas Party Invitations going to. Knowing what a procrastinator I am – and PB being the nonchalant type – if I don’t do it on my own – he’ll probably conveniently forget about it. So yes ! I’m ordering some special invitations soon – that way – I can start planning my Christmas menu and decide what to do for Christmas supper. I know it’s early but they say time flies and before you know it Christmas will be here. Do you have the list of people you want to invite for your Christmas party yet? I don’t – so I better start cracking.
