      I am a happy FTWM as I enjoy getting my pay check and my work!

      :celebrate:
      Besides paid MC, we get \"paid\" weekends and public holidays, \"paid\" leave etc.

      BUT our 24 hours are shortened a lot due to WORK. :x

                Yeah will be filing this weekend... my DH so jealous that he always take all the other reliefs cause we get for kids, FTWM relief and also maid 😛
                he shoudl know how much we contribute wor.. we also bring back the bacon also bring him offspring, also prepare him meals (eventhough is maid do, but we train maid wat) and also bring him cosy and clean home..
                no the reliefs for us is fair lor..hee

                but, dun forget to get him to claim the qCR(share) & Parenthood relief(percentage).. cos however it's the same pocket 🙂

                  LKVM,


                  talking abt cooking, i would like to ask, if u do the cooking, then how do u find time to do homework and play with ur kids?

                  last time i used to cook, but after havings kids, i let the maid cook, cos if i cook, it will take up at least 1 hour ? then i cant be with my kids,

                  let’s say i reached home at 6pm. then my kids sleep around 8 plus. i only have 3 hours to be with them… so i try to make full use of the 3 hours plus.

                  share with me how u split ur time? or maybe ur kids bigger now? mine is 41 mths & 13 mths old…

                    thanks for sharing. seems like for me, my kiddos sleep early, they sleeps around 830 to 9pm. get up early arpund 645 to 7am… both early birds. so very hard for me to do too many things on weekday including cooking. only weekedns or off days i can bake bread and cook.i miss cooking actually. i like to cook.


                    and for DH i really sorry for him, cos when the kids sleep (usually im the one with them in room till sleep) after the story time with DH. i will also sleep together. i dune ven know wat happen to DH after that on weekdays… we even need to communicate via email and sms during office hours… how ironic… sob.

                      I have given up cooking and never believe in it. Too much work for such a short time eating. My maid cooks and now with her more busy and going home leave, I have started ordering ting kat meals. Save time to do other things or just chill out!

                      😉

                        tt's why i have to assign the cooking to my maid lor. so that i have more time to do other things. usually wat time u all sleep and wat time get up ? i sleep early before 10pm..the most read a bit of newspaper after my kids sleep then i feel tired already. the next morning get up at 530am (my DS's mornign feed) then lie for abt half an hour 6am get up make breakfast for my DH , if my mum not around, i will be the one to make the porridge for DS and then clean up my DD and all.. then it's already 730am.. i go to work..
