An Intriguing Tale Of Being An Owner

Sorry it was dark.. and my digicam.. was running outta battery life.

I donch know what the name of the cat is.. coz’ i’m terrified of them. But this is one of the many that Grammie has. And there were outside the window.. so it doesn’t matter too much.

More fun with grammie during Easter Sunday 2005.

Chloe having fun with Grammie.

I was a real pig this morning. Sent my spouse to get me a Big Breakfast from Macdonalds and a coffee.. on top of it.. had one of his hotcakes..!! Wat a pig i was..!!
The eggs were dry.. so i only had a piece of it… and the sausage was loaded with MSG .. that i’ve never really noticed before.. but boy..!! was it saltish..!!
I had all the muffins.. with jelly and butter.. and hash brown as well. Macdonalds is cheap .. compared to back home.. at 3.19 for breakfast this morning.. when i prolly have to pay like 6bucks. So that’s my reason for being a PIG!

My daughter Chloe is easily amused.. just like her mummie..
Whenever she sees daddy kissing mummie..she is so tickled and amused by it.. but when we ask her to kiss daddy..or get daddy to kiss her.. she turns aside giggling.. hehe!! i think it’s because of daddy’s prickly beard..
When i was a kid.. i’ve never seen my parents kiss each other openly… and i often wonder .. if they had affection in between them..?? I’m glad Chloe’s daddy is an ang moh… coz’ i would hate for my Chloe to grow up.. without any hugs and kisses. Nor share the affection .. that her daddy has for her mummy.
Now donch get me wrong.. i’m sure.. alot of asian men are very affectionate too.. and they will openly show it as well.. and will give loads of hugs and kisses to their children and spouses….. but because i grew up in an environment where my grandparents did not show any affection openly nor did my parents.. or aunties and uncles.. i tend to feel that asians are more conservative in this area.. wherelse the ang mohs are less. So when i say .. i’m glad that Chloe’s daddy is ang moh.. it just means.. that he is less conservative.. than those i know and grew up with.
So donch you fucking flame me now..!

We bought a leash Oops..!! i meant Tot-A-Long for our daughter, Chloe for our impending trip up to the city.
It’s call the Tot-a-long and in french .. it’s call .. Bracelet et cordon..
Came home with it.. and try the leash bracelet on Chloe.. and as soon as daddy got it on her.. she matter-of-factly .. took it right off..and handed it back to daddy.. hahahha!! What a girl..!!
The reason why we got it was because Chloe runs amok.. when she is at the mall.. she just charged .. without fear…. of getting run over by some shopping cart. And we can’t put her in a shopping cart for too long.. coz’ she gets all cranky.. after 30mins.. making shopping for us.. unpleasant. So we had no choice.. but to get a leash bracelet for her. But i guess it’s all in vain huh..??
So experienced mom out there.. pray tell .. how to keep your kid in line.. at the mall..??

I have a really bad habit.. when it comes to talking.. with my spouse.. or my spouse’s co-worker. I tend to speak .. like they know what i am talking about.
For example.. i will tell my spouse.. “can you put this thing .. into this thing.. and get this thing there?”
Now i didn’t think i was that bad.. till several days ago.. my spouse was talking to me.. and said.. “wach you ma call it..??” i went like.. huh..???
And he said once again.. “wach you ma call it?” Apparently .. that is how i sound.. when i ask my spouse something.. hahhhaa!! Well i didn’t know i sounded this way.. hahhha!!
My store manager had once told me in passing.. that she had a hard time understanding me at first.. but she is ok now.. hah!! and she never said a word about it .. or asked me to repeat myself ever.. hahha!! Pretty smart gal huh..?? Why i say she is smart..?? coz’ she never made any mistakes.. even when she had a hard time understanding me.. with my silly accent.. hahha!!
So truly . .i’m the crazy chinese woman..!!

Vodka Cherry Berry Cooler. I told my spouse i donch mind being an alcoholic with this cooler.. It doesn’t really have alot of alcohol content in it.. but it sure leaves a tingling feeling in my body.. when i drink it.. and nice sense of warmth.. and it’s good.. when i wanna relax.. and feel all adult.. after spending like 24hrs.. with a toddler.. hahah!!
Will i ever be an alcoholic..??? Nah.. i donch think so… no one in my family… or my spouse’s family has ever been an alcoholic.
Ummhh.. wait.. Uncle Richard does have quite a bit of beer.. but does it make him an alcoholic..?? Hmmm… i donch know.. gotta ask Uncle Richard tomorrow.. during easter dinner.. kekekke!!
Yes.. i love a glass of red wine.. every now and then.. and of course.. my berry cooler.. and that’s about it.. My spouse donch take any alcoholic drinks.. not even beer…… or coffee or tea.. only milk and water.. and orange juice.. so i guess.. the chances of moi being an alcoholic is pretty slim.

So yes.. i’ve been eating alot of udon lately.. instead of some fast food.. and the soupy ones for they are easy to make.. and donch take alot of time..
PS : I can’t wait to be up in the city.. and eating some really good ones.. in Dharma Sushi.

My spouse said i’m a Pansy..! all coz’ i wouldn’t touch the door.. or any metal stuff..! I wait for someone to open the door for me.. even if i was in the mall or going into our own store. I even knock on the glass door.. so that someone will come open the door for me… hahahah!!! Or when i get in the car.. i always make sure.. i use the plastic coated handle and not touch the door itself. That’s how extreme i get ..! Can you blame me..??? when i get zapped all the time..???? I hate getting zapped.. i hate the sudden pain it caused… i hate it .. when i have to scream like a wimp.. when i get zapped.. !
Letti from My Adventures in US of A .. looked at it.. in another way.. and i applaud her for it.. she said.. she have a electrifying personality.. that’s why she gets zapped.. hahah!!
I like to think that way too.. but it’s way too .. shocking and sudden.. to even want a electrifying personality.. hehhe!!
So i’ll just stick to being Pansy for a long time..

Chloe had her first Heinz Toddler food this evening… she had pasta with meat sauce.. And she was a real trooper about it too.. My daughter is a big gal now.. Now if she learns how to chomp down mcnuggets.. we are all set.. hahahaha!!
Yes.. yes.. she will get there in her own time..
Hurray for my lil’ pumpkin pie..!!

May Joy fill your day..
Hope light your path..
and the many blessings of Easter warm your heart.
Happy Easter Everyone!

We just started watching six feet under – second season.. and am liking it alot.. For those who never watched six feet under.. go watch it.. it’s darkly comical..

Amazing as this pot of plant has never bloomed for 2yrs. Feng-shui must be good in our new house.. haha!!
