On This Day - (7th May) #Reminders from FB#

7th May 2022

What a fun and memorable day!

Made possible by a Disney Park expert, we're able to cover more than what we could. She could plan anything except for the glitch in one ride where we got stuck inside. That was really hilarious and thankfully no young crying kids with us so we're able to turn that misfortune (or maybe not) into an experience that even I never had before. She even commented luckily the position we're stuck in is leveled and not some ascending/descending awkward position.

Better still, she's the girls' favourite person to be with

-young and fun. I guess this friendship between the mothers might just continue on with the kids.



Footnote written in 2023 :


Missing Disneyland. I'm never too old for the Disney magic.

Magic mountain next Athena Ting? Aricia Ting can stay in hotel 😂

This was one of the albums in my camera roll.

Missing this.

Only when on holiday can stop, look and appreciate what's around me. When at home, I get caught up and oh man...I'm surrounded by blocks 🤦🏻‍♀️

Athena's masked Nintendo (last night). I spent $84 on this!! But pretty right?



Quick! Quick! Warm blanket. Poor Tamagotchi!

They had been looking for it the whole of yesterday.

Guess where Che-Che left it?? In the box of chocolates n candies n into the fridge. Hahaha! Brrr...cold

The lil' girl spoilt the fun. Told me the moment I came out from toilet,"mummy we r going to make u a card.

It's for Mother's Day."

LOL. Everyone asked her to keep quiet, she continued "u wait ok? Che-Che n me going to make alr."

I feel like peeking.


>>>>>>>>>>>


I like to tease her lah! She came out of room n asked KZ to go in, I said I'll go in to help them. She pushed me away and said "NO! U cannot see. I AM going to make u a card. It's a surplise (surprise) from me.' I'm not the least surplise but shall act surplise.

On This Day - (6th May) #Reminders from FB#

Someone is really happy.

When we moved here, she often misses her fish noodles in Punggol Plaza and would often make a trip down to eat. Now they have the exact same stall in the small neighbourhood centre opposite us. How easy can that be? Just cross one small road.


6th May 2021

See you around a month later! 


Footnote written in 2023 : that must be the time the humsup men went to KTV lounges and there was a 🦠 cluster. 

6th May 2012

What a wish! Why never wish to help her mother??

On This Day - (4th May) #Reminders from FB#

4th May 2021

My purchase from US finally arrived! Waited too long, until melted. Never mind, nobody see, we can lick it up from the foil cover.

Got some chocolates for self n big girl. Yup! They even personalised my name on my orders 🤣.

Managed to get the baking chips too, so much cheaper. The retailers here are earning so much per pack!

This was a massive purchase with one other snack n some other non-perishable items. No more purchase for the next few months.

#didntusemyvpostforawhilealready#

But packs may seem deceiving. Infact there r only 6 pieces of chocs in each bag, k


Che-Che misses her chocs too.

Well...lhad no choice coz they come in packs of 3. And for dark chocolate PB cups there was a min order of 4. I don't mind, since I prefer dark choc over milk choc




4th May 2021


They forgot, a good roller coaster rider too.

#turbulencepsfastenyourseatbelt# #butiliketurbulencewhenitisrestperiod#

Even if they feel pukish, will attend to pax first.




4th May 2019


A trip to their orthodontist means they get to go to their fav place for food and ..

...the forbidden place.

They picked up music books this time as well and one of Che-che's music book is this "fantastic" #iseeuntilmyeyesgocrazy# book. (She's been playing this nice Bach piece at home for quite some time so wasn't surprised that she decided to get a book solely on Bach's pieces.)

I parked at Wisma coz NGCity is one side and orthodontist on the other, so when we walked we made a few food/snacks stop. I can't remember when was the last time I had Garrett and not forgetting ....she's been craving for desserts from this place. They closed the outlet in MBS so was happy when there's one opened here in Wisma.

On the whole a fulfilling trip for us coz I manage to do my shopping errands as well.

Gotta wait for another 6 weeks for this waste money trip.

"Uncle, you want to die also don't die infront of my

car!"

Fed up. Motorcyclist made (his) right turn abruptly when I'm so near him. My swear words came out faster than the horn. This one must really be hand-fast-leg-fast. Jam braked and dinner toppled in car. Lucky thing che-che also hand-fast-leg-fast.

Blocked n picked the food up, only spilled 2-3 drops on her leg.

If she's slower.I can't imagine the cleaning that needs to be done.

Hate this kind of motorcyclist.

Well....

... Technically she's not wrong, is she? You need to have more than a thousand dead to make the rest of 745 as survivors.

OMG!!!! 😱




4th May 2013

Our interesting mealtimes outside consists of :

Battlefield with the littlest but noisiest girl.



cont'd 1: Our table is noisy! U hear kids bickering; parents nagging. Then after some time .... It comes the NEGOTIATION. Mealtime is a headache esp with the lil' one.. HONEST!

It drains us physically and mentally.



cont'd 2: And the lil one still continue and harp on what we negotiated. Makes me wonder how she can eat and talk at the same time despite us telling her not to.

She fights back. Superbly noisy and full of life this table. Only thing, the parents so bloody dead tired!!

Anybody wants to join us for our meals??




4th May 2011


Shucks! MyPhotoalbum is ceasing operation. How to transfer so many files to another new photosharing website!!


Footnote written in 2021 : changed to Shutterfly. And now they will cease this unless we purchase something. Oh well! Anyway I hardly share so many photos now. 


4th May 2010


Busy!Busy!Busy! Been busy with house. Photos uploaded later. Can't wait to share this. Who we bumped into!!!!


We bumped into lan Wright. So happy! I love his shows, makes me miss flying even more

External painting

Huh? Still not done? 

I thought the guy came by to do the touch up on the wall (where the missile-looking branches flowers’ pollen dirtied a teeny weeny portion of the wall) after constant reminders. But then the guy sat himself down comfortably and started painting the gate. Good thing I removed the padlock, so it was easy for him to come in and paint the gate. Came back another time to do the final coat.

Staple running out. Time to make lor-ti



Done!

And I tell you by tonight someone will finish more than half. (When I said that, the guilty person smiled)

Always not enough.

Dowan to bake anymore tonight. Maybe I'll do it tmrw and tie up someone's hands so she won't overeat n eat others' share.



Big mouse is out. Eating with her fav cheese. 🤦🏻‍♀️



2nd May 2020

So che-che will go back to school. Dunno if she's happy or not. Then ....... my many weeks of no-need-to-iron-clothes will resume 😔



2nd May 2020


Adding on to my previous post.

This is one of those daring solo trips I went during my layover in Cairo. About 20+ km away. Hee!

See - the wall paintings that I saw 20 yrs ago were so faint as compared to the tomb they discovered in 2019.





Inside Mastaba of Mereruka. Mereruka was a vizier to a 6th dynasty pharaoh and his 32 room mastaba is the largest at Saqgara.




Inside Mastaba of Ti: this is a relief of Ti watching the hunting of hippopotamus
