On leave

It should be a deserving break for me, 1 week. When I am planning for the leave period, I wish it could be on the Christmas period where I can enjoy the long break, however, my colleague has chose to pick the later dates and therefore I have to go on leave earlier.
Honestly, loads of backlog to do. I can never go on leave with peace of mind but I can't be so cruel to myself and family right? I really need to have family time, as I have been neglecting Ed and Seth lots since my working hours are crazy. I hope to have this period to spend quality time with them.
As Seth is approaching 18 months, we realise that he is getting really temperamental and seems to be throwing tantrums much more when he could not get his way. It makes me realise as well, that I've neglected him soooo much that could have got him to behave so.
The juggling of work and family is not easy, definitely esp for any working mommy. Somehow, I can never find the balance. Just like last week, I was pushing Seth away when I need to clear work and quotations in the nights. It's so poor thing. He cried for half an hour at least till I completed the quotations to submit on time. What kind of person I am?? I hated myself to cause him to feel rejected. He felt that way....throughout the week, at least 2 nights were spent in this manner.
I wish I can do something about it, but what works best for us? Still thinking.

showing it differently

Sometimes, there are questions on my mind, on the love I have for Olive Tree or vice versa. How much we love each other? Ok, mushy....but that's the fact. Women in general will have such thoughts, whether the husbands still love the wives like courtship days, will the love ever change...blah blah blah... Maybe it's due to the fact that husband and wife have been staying together for so long, somehow or rather, might have taken each other for granted and will not express the love for one another that often which spurs such funny thoughts. However, my man has chosen the other ways to show me he still cares and loves me as much. For the little or big things that he do for the family and me. Olive Tree was in my scraproom last night, while I was in the living room watching Oprah. I thought he was doing some handywork for Grace's cabinets or something for Seth..... This morning, when I woke up, I went to my scraproom and this was what I saw besides my scrap table.... It's so...

No Idea

No idea to what I need for BB Seth, my 3rd sis-in-law asked, what else do we need for our blessed champion, think left and right, still can't think of a stuff that Seth's require....haa... Besides the Baby Cot that we need for him (which is, we are not going to buy), but that is too expensive for my sis-in-law to buy for us anyway. We are hoping for blessing of a dream Baby Cot for Seth. Otherwise, we will just make use of my bro's daughter's cot, which has been used since 1st kid, but still in pretty good condition. Today, went out with one of my TaiTais' Club pal, Janet. We went for lunch at Sembawang Hill Food Centre, her friend is operating a Pasta Stall there. Not bad, the food are reasonably priced, and the quality are comparable to Pastamania.....heard that she has to even reject crowds on weekends due to the high demand and long waits. Adding to my list of shopping for delivery, 4. Nursing Bras (How many to get huh??) Till now have yet, to meet up with Jed, ...

Updates....more updates

D-day for IRAS e-Filing! I am such an 11th hour person, that I manage to e-file my tax return last night. Anyway, I am not getting any income for year 2005. So it's totally easy for me to e-file. Clicking and clicking a few buttons and the e-file is done. However, it wasn't so smooth flowing for Olive Tree. WHY? Because he has forgotten his Singpass PIN and he has to get a new one. Worse part is, he can only get it today, since I am such a last minute work person, he'll have to mad rush into getting the PIN from the appointed places for SINGPASS application. I felt bad and I apologise. What to do with a wife like that? Just have to bite the bullet lor. Since last week test posting in the office is working well, I deem I should step up my blog update. Has not been very constant in updating my blog, be it the scrapblog or this. Feeling bad about it. Seth has been growing in tremendous speed! haha! That's obvious! He starts to enter the mimic stage where he'll mimic t...
