Me Time!

it's not just the kids...but I must have my cotton filled pillow when I sleep.
there is this obsession using fingers to feel the little twigs inside. seriously I have no idea how I have this weird habit.
fortunately the bigger sheng siong stores still have such pillows. once my daughter asked me what i'm 'searching' for...when I managed to feel the twig, I will ask her to feel it...really :siao: mum. -

NTUC in JE is selling 12 cans of coke at $3.75!
I bought only 12 cans bec my bull is not around to carry them home. -
Just went to pop-up ATMs at 2 CCs to try to get new $10 notes - both places had run out. Apparently the machines get topped up twice a day, and they run out fast. I don’t have time to go and queue at a bank. My angpao recipients are going to have to settle for not very new notes.

Do you notice that letters take a long time to arrive?
On Mon, I dropped a letter at the Post Box in Post Office next to CPF building in Tampines. There was a note which says ‘to be delivered within 3-5 working days’. A local mail needs 3-5 working days to be delivered!
And a RM posted red packets to me since early last week and till now I hv yet to receive it.
My ocbc token supposed to reach 5-7 working days also nowhere to be seen. -

I will get just the essentials when there is no coolie. there was once I bought 4 full grocery bags of stuff as I couldn't wait until the weekend. no choice but have to take grab. -

Yes, I recalled letters delivered the next working day.
Now some letters seem to take a week or two to arrive … -

Our too leh. Grandma sews them for us out of leftover materials that she used for sewing our clothes. Our bolsters have 3 peaks as well. Think that was the trend then? But we don't suckle we niap the corners.
My baby bolster is still around!! Can’t tell you all how old the bolster is nowlee_yl:
[quote=\"starlight1968sg\"]Ladies
Dd’s little bolster is 19 yrs old! Anybody can beat her?
but it has been with me since birth.
My beloved grandma made it for me. Very funny, everyone’s bolster should be round at both ends but mine has 3 sharp corners. Probably for me to suckle.
I still have the blankets that granma sewed for me when I was a young. My kids used them when they were younger. It's now in one of my cupboards. Who knows, when kiddos have their own kids they might use these blankets for their kids too.[/quote]Ahh... Now I know, maybe hor, could be a fashion back then. Chey, I thought mine was unique as my grandma likes to tease me, my bolster has “nei nei pok” because it has 3 peaks at both ends. :lol:
@StarL, pls help your DD to preserve her 19yo BB bolster. I regretted not doing it for my girls. As we age, such stuff do bring back fond childhood memories or help us remember someone special.![](\"https://i.postimg.cc/TPg6nhc7/F567-EB56-EF63-4-F26-A6-F7-BFAE0-C8-DF225.jpg\")
