3rd week will be better, right?

(was supposed to post this last night but didn't get to)

Last night, after posting my post I thought "hey its time for my meal of the day " cook maggie mee la. So I went down with my cacated finger and cook maggie kari with some tiny sausages for the kids to eat. Then Big C came home and asked "Now only u cook dinner? You haven't eaten?" I thought what a funny question to ask when its TIME to cook dinner at 7 plus. I asked him, "why u come home so early? I thought got badminton tonight? He replied "It's near to 9pm u know?". I was shocked, 9 pm and I baru eat dinner. Like I said NUMB. The brain is NUMB. The finger is pain and NUMB. The stomach also NUMB. I only eat cos I have to eat.

This morning, I thought I should leave early before picking Jayden up from sch, so its good time to go to the post office to renew my licence. Waited and waited and finally couldn't wait anymore. So left to pick JD. Since its the last day before my licence expire, I thought why not go to one that is in a shopping mall. So off we went to Ikano.

At the car park, I was trying to help JD to fit his shoes on and he jumped from the car and .... LANDED on my injured finger. Wah Piang!!!! pain............. and then NUMB. Seriously, speechless. He saw and he thought that he caused the injury and kept asking if I'm alright, kept saying "I hold your right hand - your left hand painpain, Why You cut yr finger mami??"

See that its different colour from the other fingers? Greenish Yellowish like a dead finger. 

Anyway Yes. I brought 2 boys out in a shopping mall ALONE. Since Justin was sleeping in the stroller it made it easier for me to go buy whatever I needed to buy. Thank god, Jayden changed so much and is very helpful. I have waited so long for these day to come. Now, I gotto wait for JT's turn. We went to so many shops and ate mcD. So nice.

And now i'm back home with a koala hanging behind me while I type this. *sigh*

First week, I gotto admit that it was bad. JT was teething and sick with flu so he refused food and drink. I gotto kept forcing him to eat and spoonfeed him with water and milk. I was so stressed until I really broke down and cried. It was Jayden's word that picked me up "Mami, you can do it!" and "Mami please don't be angry. Let me kiss you". Big C was helpful too, kept asking me to rest and offered to buy food back.

This week I thought that it will be better. But I cut my finger and I'm basically working with just one hand and worst, I burnt my other hand last night. I thought that the sterilizer is done and i went to open the cover and BOOOSH the hot air came out and basically "cooked" my finger. So 2 hands also cacated. I was pissed and angry at myself for being so careless and started to argue with Big C. That's when Jayden said to us "mami and dadi? Why u all so angry? Don't be angry." The 2 of us just kept quiet. Jayden oh Jayden.. you just know when to say the right words.

Nevermind..nevermind.. Just tahan. If 2nd week is bad then perhap 3rd week is better, right?

  13. gosh the finger looks painful. hope it'll get better soon.

    sasha, do hang in there. it WILL get better, seriously. the first month i was maidless, i was also NUMB. then it got slightly better. and better. and better! now i cannot imagine having a bloody interfering maid in my life. (not unless we have a small toddler later on that i cannot manage with my bad spine!)

    so in short.. have faith in yourself. noone gets used to such major changes overnight. give yourself some time.

  22. When there's no maid in the hse, the kids will somehow become more matured n responsible. JD with his thotful words n JT so helpful (trying to fix the curtain rod samo). Try not to do everything urself ya. Get part-time cleaners, cater food, etc. Hang in there, girl.
