Mama's new Haircut

I decided to do a change to my usual hair style... So went to my hairstylist after work and ask him to style a new hair style for me... I was in the salon for 2 hours because I did not dare to make the change in the beginning until my hairstylist tried ways and means to convinced me...

Finally, I walked out of the hair salon with a new haircut... Not used to it... but hope that its not that bad after all... Haha...

When I arrived school today, everyone asked me about my new haircut... I have varied comments from both teachers and students... My form class asked if I am Mrs Teo... some said the haircut dun suit me, I look funny, I look older, I look ugly... Some said it made me look younger, nicer than before... It really created so much sensation.. Think it became the talk of the school... Haha..

Just hope that the commotion will fade off by tomorrow... Haha..

Caden's 15th Month Bday

Today is Caden's 15th month birthday but deardear is on reservist.. Luckily, he is able to come out for a short while... He has to help his camp mates to buy can foods for their outfield tomolo... As a result, he is allowed to come out for 4 hours...

We made use of the 4 hours to celebrate Caden's 15th month bday... Deardear arrived home at 6pm and I had prepared Caden by bathing him and dressing him up. We immediately set off to Bugis for dinner... Had a simple dinner as little family of 3 at Crystal Jade Xiao Long Bao Restaurant. Then at 7 plus, we had to go home... as deardear had to go Sheng Siong to buy all the food that his camp mates needed. As a family, we went to Sheng Siong and did some shopping on our own too..

At 8.30pm, deardear had to wait for Eugene to come pick him up... Though deardear was back for a short while, I can see that Caden really enjoyed the night out... And its the effort that counts... Deardear volunteered his service to buy can food for his camp mates so he can come back to see us... Thanks deardear...

This time, we did not take any pic as we were rushing like crazy.. haha..

Shan Ah Yee's Birthday

Today is Shan Ah Yee's birthday. As her good friends, we decided to give her a treat at Kuishin Bo at Suntec.

In the morning, deardear and I woke up feeling very refreshed as Caden slept with us till 9am.. Haha.. Deardear came home last night from his reservist feeling very tired... Said that his ippt almost killed him.. Maybe too fat liao.. haha.. We went out for dinner at Parkway Parade and shopped around for household stuff. Then went back home at 9 plus. After Caden fell asleep, we spent the remaining night having our couple time together...

In the afternoon, we brought Caden back to my mum's place so that he can have his LNT lesson in the evening.

After Caden's lesson, we brought Caden to Suntec to meet up with my best friends. They were already there when we arrived. We had a 2-hours buffet there... Enjoy my dinner with my best friends and my little family of 3... After the buffet, we did some shopping at Carrefour as deardear need to do some shopping for his outfield this coming week.. Poor deardear.. Can sense his frustration and reluctance when he was shopping. I know he hated his reservist period.. Somemore outfield for a few days... without coming home...

Anyway, deardear dun think too much and be happy... Caden and I will be waiting for you at home...

Girls Night Out...

For the first time in so many years that I have the girls night out with my best friends. Last night, I left home at 8.30pm to meet up with all my buddies at Clarke Quay for a drink... Its a great catching up with each other... I feel young again... Get to drink my fav Baileys again... Maybe I have not drank for a long time, thus was blushing red after a few slips... At around 1 plus, we took a cab back home...

Reflection:
1. felt guilty to leave my precious at home when I went out for gathering with my girlfriends.
2. however, its a refreshing break for me...
3. So should have more of such getaways...
4. But, I do not know if I can feel less guilty the next time round...
5. Indeed, I misses my son a lot when I was out the whole night...

Stay Home Saturday

Today is a stay home saturday as all of us are down... Deardear and I spent our whole day doing work.. Me doing marking and deardear packing for his army uses.. He is going for his reservist duties on this coming Monday... Then we spent the late afternoon and night watching X-men.. Its a sudden interest aroused after watching 'Wolverine - the origin' last sun with deardear at the Filmgarde @ Iluma.

Actually I was tempted to bring Caden out but I was really not feeling too well.. According to my mum, maybe I need to take my iron pills as I looked very weak... Maybe my body is fighting the virus and is unable to take it... Asked deardear to bring him down for a walk. However, my precious refused to go without me... Insisted that I carry him and go with them.. Thus, we ended up not going anywhere.. Haha...

Will bring him for a morning walk tomolo at the market then.. hehe... Silly boy...

Deardear on MC the whole day and I am down with FLU too

Today I am down with flu... Guess I have gotten it from deardear.. Heard that Tita is sick too.. I went to see doc immediately after school whereas deardear went to see his doc in the morning and he is given 2 days MC... So he will not be able to go for his road march.. Guess the doc scared that he will passed the virus to others as its an influenza... As for me, the doc wanna give me MC but I told him I have gone to work in the morning.. Haha..

So we went back to Eunos in the late afternoon as my dad is able to drive us back... All of us except Caden are wearing masks.. As I am afraid that Tita will get worse, I insisted that she go see the doc at our place downstairs.. Lucky hers is a mild case...

Spent the whole evening and night at home as all of us are down with flu...

Papa down with Flu

Deardear is down with flu.. so on half day mc... He has been sneezing non stop.. Just hope that he will get well soon...
