My little niece Kylie, had her full mth party held yesterday.. Held early bcoz today my biao ge needs to fly off for his training.
They held it at Guilin Restaurant, NS Team at Bukit Batok.. The party started at 12pm, but we went early..
Jav as usual, making a big fuss.. He dislikes strangers.. Arrrggghh... Luckily, he quite like e fried rice.. The food yesterday was good.. many varieties..
There were many guests yesterday. Every1 had a good time. We needed to leave early, bcoz Javier needed his nap, n he had finished his milk earlier which I only brought 1 portion.. Haha..
Welcome my cousin into parenthood. It's great to have own kid. Peiyun aunty will be leaving on Thursday. She engaged e same confinement lady as mine, recommended by my pal Jiayi. My gugu quit her job to help with Kylie.
I hope Kylie can be a sensible good girl, who will be close to her parents. A healthy gal who will b happy always. Happy Full Month little Jia Lin!
I was really mad at work today, that I really flared up.. Dun wana reveal too much infor.. I just felt tat parents should not over pamper their child, resulting your kid to be so 'weak' n spoilt. Over protecting, over defensive is not going to develop your child any better.. they r going to face e music when they grow up.
I booked an apptment for air con servicing ard 2 weeks ago. Bought e deal from G... this company really sucks... They r supposed to come today, hubby specially rushed back with Jaden after his school, to wait for the crew to come.. Apptment time is 3-5pm.. But til 5.30, still no sight.
Hubby called the person's hp, n even sms-ed him, but no reply. I was in e class then. Hubby sms me that they had not appeared... He did not want to wait further, so brought Jaden back to my in laws' house.
I was already angry at work, so at tat moment, I was fuming mad. I called e person's hp twice, of course he did not answer. I sms him to call me back ASAP, but til now, he did not call me back.
After calling n sending sms, I called G customer service line to talk to e customer service officer. I was angry, told the staff that I want to get a refund from them. Told them e reason n said I was v frustrated. I paid for their service 2 weeks ago already, n that is how they do business?? G's officer said that they will do e necessary action for me, n will update me soon through email.
My mood was fouled. Super pissed off... decided to call back e usual aircon servicing company that I always engage. He called me back very fast to confirm my apptment. But bcoz he used another number to call me, so I tot he is that company's person... I was fuming mad n was scolding him over e phone for ard 5 min. He was puzzled of course, apologising n explaining. I raised my voice n scolded him, til an extend he suddenly told me his company again, then I was like, huh?? Say again?? Oppppssss.... I scolded e wrong person... Quickly apologised to him abt e matter, n after that it was ok. I was so apologetic about it...
It was just not a good day for me. Well, I had enough of all these nonsense. Tmr I need to reach e sch by 0715, bcoz i have to do napfa duty. After tat, teaching as usual. My worst day is Fri, with 9 periods. I think i will become zombie tmr.. Gotta sleep now... Good night. Sorry for my venting of frustration in this post.
After resting for 11 days, I'm finally cleared fully frm HFMD. Need to go back to my family doctor today to check. They only open frm evening onwards, so I went ard 6.30pm..
After ensuring all ulcers gone, no more fever, no more red spots on palms n soles, doctor declared me recovered n can b back to force tomorrow.
I do look forward. There r many things waiting for me to settle.
Thanks to my hubby, who helped out in care taking of Javier for those days, while mil as usual helped with Jaden. My parents n siblings who dun mind taking me in for that whole week. My mum for cooking meals, n packed food for me. My sis who dun mind sharing e room n sleep together with me.
It was a rest period for me. Practically sleep, watch tv, play iPhone, surf net. Really do all these. N most imptly, napping in e noon!
It's a mixed feeling being on break. Coz was separated frm my 3 men. N yet I'm blessed with adequate n undisturbed rest.
It was a great break for me. I get to acc Jaden to sch for e past few days. There r more challenges for me to face frm tomorrow onwards. N I have to b more positive to move forward.
I did not measure Jaden's height, but I am sure he is above 90cm.. hahahaha...
When we bring him to take public transport, we never pay for his fare, bcoz he is only 4 years 5 mths old...
Today, b4 we board e bus, hubby noticed one of Jaden's classmate was using an ez-link card.. So hubby asked me if Jaden needed one.. I said I am not sure, coz he is yet 5 years old..
At e MRT control station, hubby went to ask the counter staff.. They say regardless of age of e child, as long as he/she is above 0.9m, will need to pay for e fare. But never once we were asked to pay for Jaden's fare.. I think bus captains shld b considering e fact tat all of our kids r still young, so they wont b so calculative to get e parents to pay for the child's fare..
Nonetheless, to play safe, hubby went to buy 1 for Jaden, n showed me when he was back. It just so happen tat MIL has a ez-link card holder with strap.. we put it in, n placed in Jaden's bag. Whenever go on bus, just go into his bag to search for e ez-link card.. But I think I may not use it yet unless bus captain requested for Jaden's part of e fare.. Haha.. I c how it goes...
To play safe, get 1 n put in e bag.. The card looks cute, n I am surprised that kids at their age oso need to pay, if to b strict. I told hubby, actually if go by height, it might not b fair. Some toddlers are actually tall for their age.. If they r tall, but age wise still young, or much younger, then it's not worth it or abit too much to request them to pay just bcoz they r over e height limit...
I think hubby will b hardworking to tap Jaden's ez-link card. Haha.. But well, it's just to standby in e bag.. No harm getting one. Colleague told me if lose, will get fined... Wow! Scary, stress loh. Haha.. Hope Jaden dun misplace the ez-link card!
I always complained of not having enuf rest, n now finally I can rest for 1 week.. but I am not tat happy, bcoz I won't get to see my hubby, n my precious princes.
It's all bcoz of HFMD.. Actually I started to feel unwell on Wed evening. My throat hurts tat even when I was swallowing my saliva was also a chore. Measured my temp n it was 37.2... Went to sleep v early b4 10.30pm tat night. Hubby acc Javier while I slept on my own...
Morning which was thur morning, I felt throat not s bad s e previous night, though still felt abit unwell, but still went back to work as usual as we had meeting in e morning. I didn't measure my body temp in the morning b4 I left home.
After e meeting, went for lunch with my colleagues as usual. Had duty so went to the AV room.. while doing duty, Naf watsapp me informing me that R had just been diagnosed with HFMD, tat was when I started to panic. It was ard 1pm.
I replied Naf telling her tat actually i'm not feeling v well. I had fever, n had a few ulcers in e mouth area. Tat was when I started to look at my palms, n saw there were s few red spots on the palms. I quickly snapped e pic of my palms n forwarded to Naf.. She got worried and quickly inform e SMs..
Suddenly, everything just turned into a rush. Nora called me n told me to go home now. I was still blur n asked y? she said it's safer for me to go see doctor to ensure I am free from HFMD. Then tat was when every1 was panic walking ard, making calls to get me a relief teacher(RT), n my AV boys were also called to leave e AV room. they requested me to leave e school now.
I went back to my work space n packed my stuff, n it was just 15-20min matter, many people seemed to koe about my matter, n started to shun me. It took me 1.5hr to reach my turn to see doc. It was confirmed that I indeed contacted HFMD. Fever still triggered at 37.5 yesterday, ulcers found on my gums n oso under e tongue, red spots on my palms.
I had to be on MC for a week, at least. Depends on my situation to c if can get earlier clearance or extend of MC. Bosses get to koe my situation, n OM had to go to my work desk to disinfect. I had to move to my parents' house to stay away from my sons. I missed them so much tat I cannot sleep well last night.
Today, my soles started to have red spots too. I have to wait til my condition stabilised b4 I can get e clearance. Hope all this can pass ASAP. HFMD is a contagious virus, and many can get it esp if immunity is low. Adults can catch it too. I just hope my sons dun catch it.. Pray hard. Hope I can recover soon. I miss my 3 men...
We had a full 24/7 with our boys for e past 4 days... PILs went back to msia for tomb sweeping since thur, n was back only yesterday night...
Our precious boys stayed with us for the whole long wkend... It was tiring, but yet enriched. We do not have a maid, so everything need to do ourselves. MIL handles Jaden more for us, Jav is harder to handle, so we handle ourselves.
Javier is v naughty now. VERY... he bullies Jaden at times. He will use his smelly pillow n hit Jaden. Snatch each other's toys etc... Can b noisy at home.. cannot prevent lah, got kids sure got noise. But something cute is, they like to bathe together, squeeze together in e tub.
Luckily, they r of e same gender. If 1 is boy n e other is girl, i dun think i will be comfortable to allow them to bathe together, though ppl may say, they r still young, it's ok. But to me, once they r born, different gender means different, even if young, i oso dun think i will let them bathe together.
Jaden n Jav dun look alike, coz 1 look like hubby n e other look like me. Pray hard both of them will b tall guys... Certain angle they do look ok, but straight to e face, they r just different. They like to play water n bathe together. I think though they have no conversation like that, but it's a voiceless kind of bonding.
Night time, Jaden sleeps with me, while hubby sleeps with Jav... Jaden will not want to sleep with hubby.. Luckily Jav is ok with hubby. In fact, he always calls out to papa... n starts his baby language...
Though they do 'fight', but i find it ok that Jaden is a tame boy. He wont hit Javier. If he does, the whole family will b in chaos everyday, will b just like going on a war. Javier is stepping into his terrible 2, i hope it can pass ASAP... i buay tahan his behaviour! Haha... It is a passing phase. I hope they can always b together n learning to accept n love each other. They r priceless gems, gift of our love. I hope they can b a better person, to b liked by every1. Please be good boys ok?
