Current me

Long time never write about myself...so now is time to update here...

After 5 months of re-shaping..now my body almost 90% back..52kg now..I can wear back partly of my lovely pants...but still shoulder, lower waist and hip are slightly wide...during these holidays I got a bit time to keep my wardrobe again...this time can pull out those unfit to giv away...while packing, I put on to try again, to final make sure that I cannot fit anymore....many many nice and I like casual shirt really 'ng seh tak' to giv away...cos seldom buy shirt which buy back I dun wear...almost all I like it very much...at the end 2 big bag dig out to giv away...and many quite new inner wear too...wasted if throw away...hai....anyway I pack up too....for tops those S-M size cannot fit...waist 27" jeans also cannot fit...and total 7 pieces dinner dress (wear less than 10 times), 1 gown and 1 tailor-made cheong sam (wear once, during wedding!) all cannot fit now!!! hai...very 'kek sam' and very 'ng seh tak' looking at it...these few I didn't pack up still hanging nicely in my wardrobe, sometimes I still take out and have a look and hopefully can wear back one day...

Wardrobe looks neat and empty now...finally I got to shop for myself last Sunday...bought new dinner dress, capri pant and a pair of shoe...while shopping I notice many things I cannot buy now....no new handbag (no chance to carry), no high heel (need to carry baby, how to wear?), no V-shape top with low front cut (forget about it, when u carry baby ur shirt will automatically go down a bit), no office work wear (stay at home mum no need that), no skirt (always wear pant is more easier to take care baby), all I can buy now is pant, flat+rubber form shoe and simple shirt....so wait until Terry big boy then can go for all above again...big sacrifies ya...

I'm having light problem of urinary incontinence and this makes me worried and really shy for myself for this problem...I'm looking many info from the Internet on this area, especially on the treatment. This problem will only b fully cure by operation. For light cases, it can be help and control by Kegel exercise, food and also some chinese herbs food, although this problem normally happen to old ppl, but I just take it to try, as those ingredient no harm too...it is not medicine....so before it getting serious, I hav start doing exercise and taking food now. Some said during confinement stand to drink water will increase the seriousness of the problem...I dunno how true is it..as I almost stand to drink...anyway till now no information I read got said so....

Also, suffering on hair lost now, as hormone are slowly change back to normal since 3.5 months ago. It drops a lot especially aft hair wash ...hairs everywhere in the house...I feel my hair is very thin n flat now...dunno when it will end the hair drops...during pregnant hardly drop hairs...now it pays back...

Brandon have planning to go for a trip and an outing...but I dun think I wan to go also...I can't put down Terry to someone...Sometimes I do feel being a mum very tired...can't go places for long hour, even someone is taking care of him, but my heart cannot let go...think of sleep as long as u wan...I dunno since when I lost this great pleasure... hai...can I put down the role of mum for just 1 day??? I don't think I can...is the heart cannot put down...I truly feel the mum greatest of all...

Terry’s belongings

Since born, Terry is blessed with many second-hand stuff which is passed down from my cousins, some given from my friend and many new sets clothes are gift received during fullmoon…counting from the beginning up to before current shopping, for clothes – I only bought 1 new set for him to wear after born when discharge back home and the same set wear during fullmoon…you may not believe that he also wearing n using some of my properties like blanket, home wear, sarung spring, baby bath tub and even cloth diapers, all this thanks to my mum who kept this for many yrs.

It actually can help to save down a lot not to buy everything in new. Other than that, his baby coat, small bouncing net (not fit him anymore) and now extra large bouncing net are all lend from cousins too…all this big n small stuff we are passing between each other as we hav few different months babies around….Other new things for him are handkerchiefs (given/ second hand one may not good to b re-used), booties and mittens, pillows and bolsters, toys, some bathing stuff, stroller and etc... My mum also tailor-made him the bed case, pillows and bolsters…

On Saturday holiday went to KLCC by myself and shopped for 4 hours…Brandon looked after Terry at home aft he sent me there….all the way no traffic jam…So shopped at Isetan & Parkson, thought of getting myself a new set dinner dress as all of those old one are hardly can fit in now and also bought some new casual wear..but aft browsing n try for many, none of that I like…so not bought anything for myself…but when in baby department...I can loaf there for 1 hour long to check out baby stuff and nice clothing…I’m freaking love looking at baby stuff now…everything is so cute n nice and of coz checking out those high quality things like Avent, Chicco and Fisher Price product range…wow very the expensive ohhh…especially Chicco. I pretty love baby to wear Rompers, as when they are moving around a lot, wearing pant and shirt separately, it may easily come out and looks messy to them.

After 4 hours walk…very tired, but feel very nice again can b alone all by myself…Come check out Terry’s new and second-hand belongings.


New Rompers & Pigeon set


Lollipop bibs and Goldbug socks, toys (mini gym, Pooh musical toy, K's Kids train soft toy, teething fish)


Cloth diaper pants

Mooncake with thick haze

Friday night, went back to FIL house to hav dinner. On the way back down to KL..traffic was very jam. In fact many other highway in KL and PJ traffic condition was bad too. May due to buka puasa, aft office hour and we chinese rush home for mooncake reunion dinner. This lunar day also my FIL birthday, so we cut cake aft dinner.

Mooncake night, no big round moon, no tanglung, no candle light, but only thick haze...The night seems like so quiet even the time is still ealry..Unlikely last year there were many kids playing tanglung and candles around the playground downstair of my apartment. So, back thome and sleep early la..no festive mood also...Suddenly the next morning Saturday whole day the weather is good and no haze and the view from my balcony is very clear.


I was so happy the hazy day is away...but not in my expectation, on Sunday and till now blogging the sky have turn like this, compare to previous few days today is the worst. Got to shut all windows and on air-con, so that it lesser down the outside hazy air flow into the house.

Hopefully the short rain now can wash away the haze...we dun wan you HAZE!


Congrats to my cousin bro finally having a baby boy aft 3 yrs married. Is a small baby only 2.44kg. Will visit them during fullmoon next month.

Lucky Dinner

Wednesday night was attending a dinner at Hei Loi Tang Restaurant, Serdang organised by Balakong Industrial Area Association to celebrate their 10th Anniversary. Since FIL bought a table, so we all got to attend. Bring along Terry boy too. He so good boy throughtout the night, at least no big cry n big scream.

The night, 80 tables were fully occupied the dinner hall. Also attended by Dato Tang See Hang JP, Dato Yap Pian Han and some other important person that associate with the association. Dinner starts at 8.30pm ended at 11.30pm. Free flow of Carlsberg can, speech from the VIP, acrobatics show and singing performance presented by a team of youngster from China and lastly lucky draw.


The night, everything was good, just that the dishes flow is very very slow. Since it ends quite late, many guests are start leaving the hall when the lucky draw section still going on. My SIL#1 also making noise wanted to go back early, yeah...understand that tomorrow still need to work and tired too for long hours dinner. Although lucky draw prizes not too many, but FIL and all insists wan to stay back until everything ends, coz many ppl are leaving, chances to get lucky draw is higher. Moreover, a boss who wan to leave early passed us his few tickets for draw and prizes will own by us.

Lucky draw prizes consists of 50 bags YouAi mooncakes each bag have 2 boxes mooncakes (8pcs), 10 Carlsberg hampers and 2 Panasonic 29" flat screen TV. It is worth for long waiting, when last lucky number is shout 0430, finally we go it!! a 29" Panasonic TV. Everybody was overjoyed of the lucky.

Pity to those having lung n nose problem.

No visible view
No sunshine
No blue sky
No cloud

Frying

Was frying an egg to make vege egg soup one day for my own dinner. Crack it and found 2 yolk. This is an 'A' size egg, quite big. Remember once when I was small, love making half boil egg every weekend, by lucky having a double yolk before. So many years aft there I met a double yolk again.

Will this get a twin baby chick?
