Anniversary presents + surprise

Part-timer cleaner contact

I need a part-time cleaner urgently till my helper come back from her long holiday, I'm only available during weekend, preferbably in the morning.

Anyone with a good contact, pls leave a msg in my tag board!! Thank you.

Twinkle's first grooming session

Yesterday was my baby's first grooming session, I read thru some doggie forum on their review for groomer, quite a few poster give very good review for Pet's Raisin located at Bishan St 22. I've actually made appointment at Pet's Lover Center since I couldn't get any appointment slot at Pet's Raisin.

Finally, I receive a call from Pet's Raisin that they could squeese my baby in. I reminded them that she need a full grooming, and YES!! she's given a slot at 11am. Colin & I drop her off with the groomer & we went to have our brunch then went for a walk at Bishan Junction 8. After that we went back to pick my baby since I yet to receive a call from the groomer & its already 1pm, decided to just wait in the shop. When we step inside the shop, my baby starts to get excited thinking that we'll save her from "hell", sat there for about 10 mins & my baby looks extremely happy!! She can't wait to show us her new hairstyle & she smells good. I check with the groomer if she's difficult to handle, she says no, she's been very good throughout the 2 hr session, guai guai sit down & let her cut her hair & nails.

I can finally put my mind at ease & let her continue her future grooming with this groomer.

Footprints in the sand

Lyrics extracted from Elaine's blog

Footprints in the Sand - Leona Lewis

You walked with me, footprints in the sand
And helped me understand where I'm going
You walked with me when I was all alone
With so much I know along the way
Then I heard you say

I promise you, I'm always there
When your heart is filled with sorrow and despair
I'll carry you when you need a friend
You'll find my footprints in the sand

I see my life flash across the sky
So many times have I been so afraid
And just when I have thought I've lost my way
You give me strength to carry on
That's when I heard you say

I promise you, I'm always there
When your heart is filled with sorrow and despair
I'll carry you when you need a friend
You'll find my footprints in the sand

When I'm weary, well, I know you'll be there
And I can feel you when you say

I promise you, I'm always there
When your heart is filled with sorrow and despair
I'll carry you when you need a friend
You'll find my footprints in the sand

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

This song speak to the core of my heart each & everytime I'm feeling down. God never fail to remind me that when I look back at times when I only see 1 set of footprints in the sand, its becos He carried me thru & walk with me!

I'm so deeply in love with this song till its my hp ring tone too!

Taiwan here I come!!

My holiday is finally confirmed after much homework done by me. I check prices with lotsa travel agencies, I lost count how many phone calls I've made just to make sure I get the best deal. At last, I did a manual calculation if I were to book all by myself. Wow, couldn't believe my eyes I save a whopping $465!!

Colin say he sacrifice his comfort of flying with SIA, we shall fly with china airline this time round. Hotel will be more budget this time as well, but who cares, we just need a room to sleep & bath.

Date of travelling is fixed from 22/6 to 26/6, just after school holiday & I die die also must return & attend Sherlise's first birthday party which is on 28/6.

I've told my bestie I'm gonna meet her for dinner when I'm there, now trying so hard not to buy anymore clothes & save all my money for taiwan!! I really can't wait to go there & spree!!!

Flu is back

My flu is back!!

It started with mild sneezing on Thurs, took a couple of hours of work to bring my baby for her last jab.

We reach the clinic on time, register twinkle & I make use of the waiting time to take her latest weight. Her latest weight is 2.16kg, in the normal range *phew*.

When I reach home, my sneezing got from bad to worse, by 11pm I'm almost half dead. I can hardly wake up in the morning, Colin force me to stay home to rest. I quickly call office & inform my girls I'm not going in. Immediately after lunch, pop my flu med & within half hour I'm into my dreamland, but got woken up my phone call 2 hrs later.

At 5.20pm, Colin called me & say he had left office & is on the way to my parents place. Meaning to say he'll be at my parents place within 1 hr!! I quickly change, settle my baby & rush out of the house.

When I was waiting for cab, a kind cab driver from the opposite direction u-turn to pick me. Cut the long story short, cab fare to my parents place is $23.50 super duper freaking expensive!!

Just when I was surfing some friend's blog, I chance upon Elaine's blog & its playing "Footprints in the sand", a song that really speak to me when I'm down. I'll upload the lyrics & the song into my blog soon
