      In short, whatever shortcomings that were said of me i rose up to it and proved i was woman enough to see things through. Whatever ppl said tt i was this and i was that... i reflected and fine tuned when i found that it indeed cud make things better. So instead of going head-on with battle, i worked my kinks out one way or another. Neither did i shy away from it and go into denial...

      You very power!! I shall continue to look up to you....very up.

      Bu gan tang.. :oops:
      hquek:
      [Glad to see that your tone is much more positive.
      I try to be as much as i can. In fact, i have to ya noe.. i got 2 impressionable
      young minds watching my every move... watching my every step... :politebleah:
      hquek:
      [I'm sure your dream house is calling out for you - focus, focus. 😉
      Yes. Actually, we already agreed on that one, until he backed out at the
      last hour... all of us at the table were shocked :shock:.. but hey.. mebbe God
      wants to lead us to a better wan aye.. if it's meant to be it's meant to be
      lar. 😉

      But that house was beautiful, affordable, within close proximity of school
      and a lot of the signs were pointing to THAT house. But like i said, if it was
      meant to be, it WILL be.. :celebrate:

      Yes, yes, hquek... focus... focus... :rotflmao:

      Dun be tempted... :rotflmao: :rotflmao:

      Don't succumb... Doooooonnn't.... :rotflmao: :rotflmao: :rotflmao:

          buds,

          do press on and take care.

          my husband is decisive and we managed to get our dream flat on the second day of house hunting. although the price is already high, we are a week earlier before prices peak again for that location. so you gonna have fate with your house before you can become one with it. 😉
          I agree. It must be a decision made in unison. Not just one party.
          So must become one with it. 😄 Prices are peaking again as we
          speak and he better be decisive soon or else everything else
          wud be unaffordable. 🙏 Yup. Still pressing on.. When i
          press he must move, or else.... still lidat lor.
          jedamum:
          my husband is decisive once the legal documents are cleared :|-during that initial time when we need to process paper work (especially the part on getting hold of the title deed from the MIL 😓), he is no where in sight, except to help me hand-deliver the documents to HDB, he did not want to get tangled in our (MIL-Me) exchanges.

          all the best to you. 🙂
          Your DH is charmingly diplomatic and he sure knows how to taichi :nunchuk:
          his way out of the worm hole! Kudos! And i am SO HAPPY for
          you, jedamum. Your light is finally approaching the end of ur
          tunnel. :celebrate: Few more months to go nia.. 😉

            Well, Buds, a bit of a consolation. Both my financial advisors and property agents told me now is not the time to buy. If can wait, wait till about 3rd Q this year.

            Well that's how the market goes..

            Sell high, buy high. His stress is not only the buying but also the selling
            of this current hole. :roll: But then again, if one only thinks of the moolah
            then issues at hand will never be solved once and for all. We'd just be
            revisiting the issues over and over and over again.. sigh.. tired noe.

            Can wait is can wait lar. But who knows what else will come our way boi.
            That's the only thing.. Now that he's ONZ, better just jia you lor hor. 😉
            Funz:
            Yah, I know your situation is not a money or investment matter. But just giving you a bit of a positive view. Hope it can give you that little bit of a boost to tahan a bit more.
            I AM tahan-ing... still. 😉

            Investment wise THAT house we saw i knew will double up in the next
            5 to 7 years. I'm positive of it. But hey.. that's water under the bridge
            now, aye.

            Thanks for the consolation. :hugs:

                    May be that might change soon 🙏 :please:

                        Hi-5! This is also exactly what I want to say. Just dare-dare charge a bit more and with that added income, easier to afford a new dream place :love:
