For the first time in my 2 daughters’ primary school life, I woke up late this morning. Super duper late. 1.5 hours late to be exact! Darn the alarm on my new Samsung mobile phone. The alarm melody is super calming and pleasant, it must have lulled me back to dreamland. What woke me up was this old man who swims at 6am every morning. His loud plunge into the pool jolted me up fr my sleep (can be heard very clearly from the 5th floor of our unit).
Gawd, with just 25 minutes to prepare the 2 older gals for school, I was like a headless hen, running around the house trying to accomplish everything that I would normally take 1.5 hours to finish. The girls had no time to daydream a little on the dining table, no time to blow their nose, no time to complain and whine. They had to prepare their drinks themselves, quickly gulped it down, quickly pee and poo and do whatever that they had to do in under 20 minutes like speedy gonzales. I had to skip jogging and gym today. Thank God, we went down to the lobby just in the nick of time for the school van, phew *wipes sweat*
Resolution : One – must use my alarm clock as back-up. Two – must buy another alarm clock to place in Alycia’s bedroom as triple back-up.
My brother and SIL from Singapore dropped by with my cutie-pie neice, Raelyne yesterday. Alycia, Sherilyn and Cass doted on their little cousin, as if she was a newly bought doll. Cass misses Raelyne very much and could not help touching, tickling and cuddling her. When it was time to leave, Cass was really upset. Imagine if I had 1 more daughter, which makes my brood to 4 girls! I cannot possibly imagine my life with 1 more baby to care for!! *shudders*
Oh yes, I found out today that the unusually chilly weather in certain parts of our country is caused by the snow-cold wind blown from China and Russia, plus a phenomenon called “Sleeping Sun”. The weather forecast for this Chinese New Year will be a chilly one, YAY!!!
