Birthday Preparation

Prior to Andrea's birthday. We had ordered birthday cake from Just Heavenly. The cake will be design by ET. During our discussion, i felt that ET was not very keen to have our cake made. He even told us that this is his last order and was hesitant to accept our order at first. He said that the design will be VERY simple as he has no time for complicated designs. He charged us RM183 for a 1kg cake. I hate those supplier always treat us as if we are not their important client! Sigh.. i always ended up not feeling very happy with these ppl doing things for me. Hopefully the cake will turn out pretty.

Hubby had bought andrea a very big present yesterday from robinson. I have bought andrea a present today too at parkson. I went to baby zara today, there are no nice tops or dresses now. Hence, i do not have any clothes for her except for toys.

Tomorrow we will be collecting the birthday cake at around 1pm. We have also planned to get some party hats and balloon from the party shop nearby Just heavenly. We will be having the cake cutting session at around 2pm, where everyone should be back from work.

Andrea's flu have not fully recover yet. She still has running nose but seems alright to me. She is super adorable & she is able to walk with one hand support now. I brought her to walk around at the car porch today! I enjoyed it... hehe

I'm Sick

Sorethroat strikes when i was in KK on the 2nd day. After i have taken many vitamin C, sorethroat clears and flu came in. The worst thing is that i have passed it to Andrea. Poor Girl has running nose and nose stuck! She is now getting better, at least no running nose anymore. I'm also recovering, having cough now. Hopefully it will stop by today.

Never been so BIG

My current weight is at 53KG. Beside being pregnant, I never been so heavy before. My body start to inflate ever since i stop breast feeding. Human hormones gave a very high impact of our appearance, either on our body, face or skin.

I was at 48KG during my breastfeeding time, it felt good and my appearance was very attractive too. I can feel people around me envious of my body and i think i have encourage some of my friend to give birth as they say they want to slim down this fast too!

After 9-10 months, i have started to gain weight. It might be the reason below that cause this:
(1) Sleep too early, around 8-9pm after dinner
(2) Metabolism rate slowed down, usually after taken small portion i felt full. However i still finish up my lunch/ dinner. Do not want to waste food.
(3) Hormones. After stop breastfeeding, I've became a giant

Currently, i can only exercise & do stretching. I don't know what else i can do :(

Recession

It's coming. I have some money in the share market and i can't withdraw it now. Im regret that i did not sell my Maybank when it was RM13. Dad bought it for me at RM8 and i have top up just recently at RM11. Now it only left with RM7. I have a few other more and they are not doing very well either, but at least not as bad as Maybank!

Beside this, our daily use items are rising too. Petrol, food, clothes, utilities .. everything! How this world gonna be in 3 months time? would there be more crime? Gosh... i really dunno what to do with such situation.
1.Migrating is not an option because we have not done any preparation nor having any plans yet.
2.Earning more money is not an option becuase my business plan never seems perfect & current employment does not have any initiave of increasing our salary nor having any inflation adjustment. Future employment? Don't think about it, I'm sure there are no other company who gave me this much freedom & flexibility.
3.Saving money is not an option too because we have been calculating our monthly expenses and it's within our control, we don't waste uncessary money thus far.
What else? Personal use for clothes and skin care? wow! if i cut that i think i will be very miserable. I don't think life is worth living without that! Well, conclusion.. nothing changed, life goes on with increasing price. hehe...

I hope we still can live comfortably during recession time & hope this world would be a better place to live for everyone. I'm feeling like a saint

Get Started!

I need to start planning & packing for our trip to KK next Wednesday. Gosh i have exactly 1 week to prepare. I need to have a checklist of what to bring for Andrea & also plan for our itinerary. I hope this would be a Fun Trip!

On the other hand, i would also need to decide of whether to have a birthday party for Andrea. Is this party for me or for her? haha.. i love planning for happy events and i have initially thought that we should save our money for other things, i.e buy some nice things for andrea instead. However, recently i have heard thomas sister and khai fong will be having party for their kid, i feel left out! I must calm down and think twice before making any decision. Is this for me or for andrea? Who will be happier!!
