How I Wasted Time In The Morning

Aug-17-2008 By shirley

This will start my headache early in the morning, especially when my children started their nonsense. It takes them 15 minute instead of only 5 minute to go down the stairs.

I just let them take their sweet time, i can’t do much but sometimes its really make lost my patience especially whenever i was late to work. Its easier and quicker if i carry Chrissa down but she want to go down on her own, sing and dance at the same time, for Sean, if he is not in good mood, he will sit on the stair or do some ultraman action while walking down. It really wasting my time.. phew..  This is where my time wasted in the morning besides the jam on the road.

Maybe i need to give each of them new pocket watches, give them responsibilities and check who is the fastest, not a competition actually just to make my life easier.


Market Trip

Aug-14-2008 By shirley

I always look forward for Wednesday, its my husband’s off day.  Its the day where i can be a bit relax and the time when my husband will cook us dinner, kids just love it, we will have more than 2 dishes on the dining table instead of only soup and another simple recipe by mummy.

Hubby bought chicken and vegetables from donggongon market, phew…thanks a lot dear, its easier to shop without children. Last week, i had no choice but to bring Chrissa with me to the market, i only spent RM3.00 for these vegetables but it was quite heavy for me to carry in the plastic bags and holding Chrissa at the same time.

Imagine have to look after my children walking on the stairs and at the same time holding few plastic bags in your hand juggling with it, ahhh.. pity my fingers.   I really need  to replace these plastic bags to the mesh grocery bags that are made of cotton mesh woven from strong sting.

I really love to have these design, not only it reusable later but i just love the design is so cool.  I will definately get this style.  So my next trip to the market will be easier.

She Is Still My Baby Girl

Aug-13-2008 By shirley

My baby girl grow up so fast in front of my eyes, i can’t believe she is now 2 years 3 months old.

She just love her picture to be taken.

When she was a baby, she listen to me but now she want me to listen to her… oh dear!.   I no more sending her to the babysitter but to Taska  Sunflower, besides being taken care of she also can learn so many things including musics which she loves most of all.  I am  happy that i don’t need to buy disposable diaper for her, my expenses are more on her education and other things.

Sometimes she just act like a grown up… well of course she so grown up but she is still my baby girl.

Ultraman In Action

Aug-12-2008 By shirley

I have been talking about Ultraman in my previous post and its seems like a never ending story to me.  My children have been behaving good in the car with me in the car, especially Sean so i thought of buying him something as a treat.   We went to Karamunsing Complex last week,  we bring them to RCH Chicken Rice.. they didnt finished their food, imagine while we were eating Sean and Chrissa went out to the toys shop nearby.  They are so eager to check out the toys, me and hubby took turn to check on them, we didn’t really finished the meal… i dont need weight loss pills to lose weight, running and eating at the same time does the trick.

As promised, a treat for Sean… ‘Ultraman Toy’… now the biggest from his other ultramans toys.

First day got the Ultraman… he got so excited until he slept with the toy….

Oh well… my Chrissa take her turn playing with this Ultraman!!..

My Bed & Breakfast Business Plan

Aug-11-2008 By shirley

I am thinking of doing a business soon, cant really tell exactly when that ’soon’ will be. I want to do a Bed and Breakfast and it will be located in Tuaran, its a 40min drive to City Center Kota Kinabalu, 30min to the happening hyper mall in town, the 1Borneo. The location also nearer to the ‘tip of Borneo’ in Kudat and the Mount Kinabalu in Ranau, where waiting to be conquered by climbers all over the world.

My B&B concept are simple, i want to create a nicely lanscaped vegetable garden and fish pond in the area… how you like that? I will provide free breakfast and BBQ upon request… lovely isnt it.

I imagine the garden.. something like this pics.. what a lovely garden.

My B&B might not very big but i hope i can offer you hospitality, i hope you can consider visit Sabah in the future and my B&B once i officially open it.

Okay.. what i need now is your opinion… do you think you want to come and visit my Bed and Breakfast?… well.. i am sure i can do that but for now i need start budgeting and planning to make my dream come true.

Another Imagination

Aug-4-2008 By shirley

Monday… Monday.. what can you say….the starting of a week and there are so many things i need to do, so many things need to be completed but while working i managed to peek and drop comments in  few blogs.   Besides my own things, i am also helping my daddy to settle his case and help my brother follow-up with few things.  I am not complaining… i am more than willing to help my family, that’s what family for.. help each other.  I need to do things one at a time and slow and steady.. or else.. somebody will go crazy..lol..’touch wood’.

I am sure once everything settled i can relax… i am imagining myself and my family having our relaxing chat near the pool…   I am sure my imagination will come true someday, my family just love to have family celebration together… in the future we going to have our celebrations outdoor, what we need is an outdoor furniture covers, so for now its just another imagination.

Need Bigger Screen TV?

Aug-4-2008 By shirley

Another tired weekend with only me and my two kids. Well, no more complaint.. mummy got to do what mummy got to do. Its hard to wake them up everyday for schools but they woke up early that Saturday… oh my. I started my early Saturday as a referee for my children, fighting over their favourite programme, Sean want to watch his ‘Ultraman’s VCD, while Chrissa want to watch ‘Playhouse Disney‘. Their voices are louder than the TV volume… with high pitch.

My husband ever thought of buying a DLP tv but i am sure we going to watch more ‘drama’ from our children. Nowadays mummy and daddy only watched whatever our children watch… so you asked me to get a bigger screen… no thank you… i dont want to watch Ultraman fighting everyday. The only time i can watch my favourite programme when my children were sleeping and that time i can’t even concentrate… too sleepy!

Verified At Last

Aug-4-2008 By shirley

I had created a paypal account once I received payment from Triangle Direct, for doing assignments. The first amount I received was 20usd, wow I was so happy, since then I have been doing more and more assignments. My best friend, Fele had asked me to apply for Debit Card from Public Bank, which I should have done earlier. My account shows that I was Unverified, I used my credit card to link to my account but I guess I was so impatience when I saw 270usd in my account. I really need the money and even asked Ladyjava and Papajoneh for help.

At last on 30th July 2008, I was a Verified user after being Unverified for  a few months. Its not hard to be a verified user if you read the instruction thoroughly and a little patience. Today I check my account I got another 50usd…. Yippee!!.yee!!..yee!!.. I got extra money to pay my bills and shopping. Mmmm I should request for more assignments… ‘more money, more money’ I can save money to bring my family for cruises.  My first destination will be Australia.

O Almighty God, you gave us the commandment to honor our father and mother. In your loving kindness hear my prayer for my parents.Give them long lives and keep them well in body and spirit. Bless their labors; keep them always in your care. Bless them generously for their loving care for me. Grant that, through your grace, I may always be their support and comfort, and that, after our life together on earth, we may experience the joy of together praising you forever.  Amen.
