Hunger + Tiredness = Total Meltdown

As if I have not known these two to be a lethal combination to one’s peace of mind -the adult’s peace of mind as well!
 
Disastrous combination, really.
 
Not once but twice, two days not in a row though :-), I’ve been lucky enough (?) to witness
how hunger and sleep-deprivation can turn one into a little […]

Hurrah for Stress-free Goodbyes

Gone are the tearful goodbyes. *sigh* I gotta say this must be my biggest year-ender accomplishment. I had been waiting for this to happen. Finally, it’s here.
 
A couple of months back, I had discovered the secret to tear-free goodbyes. It’s not really a big secret but I have unraveled they key not by […]

My Happy News

If I have a not too happy news here, I actually also have a happy news to share (far too important than a life insurance quote to me and so I’m documenting this very important milestone in the life of my toilet trainee).
 
Okay, make sure you clap for Matt ha. :-)  
 
Ready, get set, […]

It’s actually been […]

And so did Christmas.
I’m so glad that we -Matt, hub and I- were together to celebrate these special occasions. I’m glad that despite the “shoe moment,” we were able to arrive at the church where my sister was to be wed in just the nick of time.
And most of all […]

Bathroom Scene

That’s a picture of Matt taking a bath in hotel bathroom in HK.
 
The bathroom is a little cramped (the space is superbly maximized!) but all the bathroom fixtures are functional.
He loved holding the shower all by himself. And he was showering water all over the place. Of course, I was always there to assist him […]

My Name Is McDonald

I was preparing for work this morning when Matt told me:
 
 ”You look like Mc Donalds.”
 
He was laughing so hard while looking at me, obviously  so amused with what he saw.
 
I was not doing anything -I was just brushing my teeth for goodness sake! Nor wearing anything funny or weird.
 
But he repeated the statement again.
 
What’s that […]
