        yes, it is SO crowded everywhere...was at vivo and there was no place to sit.
        when it is so crowded, it is better to stay at home sometimes...we take a quick shower when we come back.

          Zero ME time. Endless squabbling from my girls. I just blew my top after enduring for two weeks. My only regret is I should have done that earlier. Too 儽脾气. I forsee peace the next two weeks :evil:

          Must have been a pretty big eruption to foresee peace next 2 weeks.

          I leave my kids at home. They 'need' and 'appreciate ' each other more when they only have each other for company. I try to leave the house a few hours each day.

            Do you have a helper at home or completely without adult's presence?

                  I may be able to leave son at home alone for a short while, but not both together without any adult supervision. Next week, I will leave them with my dad while I accompany mum at the hospital.


                  Have planned their work while I am out. After my 'eruption' this afternoon, they are definitely on their toes for the time being. I can erupt again :evil:

                    Sleepy, I make sure the kids have something to work on when I step out. They are free to do whatever they want once work is done. Somehow they are more productive when I am away. Means I am redundant hor? :roll:


                    On my own, I run my little errands. Mostly get grocery or stroll in the malls. Exercise in aircon environment. Other days, meet up with girlfriends for a cuppa. I have a few Kopi buddies who live near me and we meet up often.

                      Janet & Sleepy, I notice that I erupt much less since my new neighbours moved in. The couple take turns erupting at their kids. Hear until sien. My eruptions pale in comparison, no fight, so I save my breath. :rotflmao:


                      My kids are older too. I have been telling them not to age and make an ahjumma out of me, please. Even though I am a mommy, I want to maintain some semblance of a sweet elegant lady. :oops:

                        Mawar,

                        I was boiling mad yesterday because my daughter has a bad habit of showing black face when she doesn't get her way...thought I cooled down until tutor told me today she just wasn't listening...work slacking and singlish compositions :mad: I know she has slacked this holiday, so enough is enough.

                        I wish I can be elegant but when these 2 fellas are not performing/doing their work properly...I cannot be demure.
