Let's share share and buy a 'power' motor for the sampans.. ..
Then we can take turns using it when things get choppy

Fully agree auntieM...then this \"power\" motor has an ability to multiply just in case things turn choppy in more than one sea!Let's share share and buy a 'power' motor for the sampans.. ..

Actually I have come to realise that managing all relationships is like flying a kite, sometimes pull and sometimes push and the rhythm is critical if we do not want to lose the fun of flying.
Sometimes we pull too tight until we affect ourselves badly and sometimes we release too much until it seems we do not care.
I feel that my relationship with my mil is somewhat like that, and each of us trying to understand each otherβs rhythm but never got it right. I thnk the important thing is keep trying if you see hope. In my case, no doubt I can be frustrated by certain actions, I also take time to savour the better gestures shown.
Yesterday in an emergency situation my mum had grabbed a bottle of birdsβ nest to help me nurse my nasty throat. I was grateful. Today, my MIL has boiled birdsβ nest for us!! Well it was not specifically said for me but deep down, I appreciated the gesture. It is also with appreciation that we will find more peace within ourselves. -

Thanks! Am feeling so much better now.
Dun even wanna talk about what's past.
Just wanna relax and enjoy what's now.
And the best part is, DH suggested going overseas the week that we are supposed to go for BBQ with the family... hehe...

Siao one... BBQ just 3 weeks ago, now BBQ again... -
Grill you slowly mah... better than fry you all at once.

Happy that you're feeling better. You're very lucky that
your DH is very understanding & supportive. Plus he is
also rather sensitive to your feelings.. :love: -

Sometimes, ranting here is alot better than feeling so lonely and helpless.
