Geek Mom

Hello..World!

Okay, not exactly world but hey its a start to something. I know I have not been the best of regular blog mom but I think I really need to start somewhere again.

I found out lately again that I can't really sleep well without my hubby beside me. Haiz. Don't ask. Work again. Anyway, for me work has been alot more easier, now that I found my old self back again. The passionate plead to myself worked. Anyway, its more of a I have a fire in me and its burning harder than before.

So what I really want to say is, I am enjoying being busy and having to think and think. The effect it has on me really helps me to discipline myself on other aspects of my life. Although, I like to think that having a gym membership might help me or being able to study for a new psychology degree might be good too.Any sponsorships?

Having signed up for a massage package lately, 10sessions at this place called Subtle Senses, went for a free trial on their slimming thing, but I think for me someone who has stubborn fat, post natal fat and also muscle it doesn't really work. Nonetheless, I signed up for the Deep Tissue Sports massage as I really need it. I will be going for my first session soon and hopefully it will be good as I have requested for the 'strongest' massage lady they have. (I have knots in my body) .

So I hope that it will be good and i will remind myself to blog about it.

First Driving lesson - Was alright, just that Comfort Driving Centre DID NOT call me especially this was my first lesson that the car assigned to me had problems and they had to change my car the last min. I was left standing there waiting for 10mins for the instructor to come up to me and asked if I was his 10.20am appt. So stupid. And I had to go to Ubi to learn at the circuit. So talk about time wasted. Driving lessons are not cheap and what I assume that I am paying for adds on the the little things like if training vehicle assigned had broken down, inform me about the new vehicle?! Talk about service standards dropping. No wonder the recent survey by SMU found that the service industry needs more improvement.

So yea, I work in a service/retail/training/sports/educational line so I know how important having good service is like. If I have the chance I would jump at joining a Customer service management course. Actually I think if I have the chance to take any management course related to my work now I would jump at it. Its always just the financial part that keeps me from jumping in.

But the term Geek mom appeared on I think either young parents or motherhood. There was a certain article on geek mom, how mom's these days with the advent of internet how blogging, surfing for info has increased. I totally agree and I think I scored a 7 out of 10 man on geekiness mom.

Okay, no gripes now. Have to focus..ciao!

Long time no blog

Wow...its been nearly a month since I last blogged on anything. I mean I had been posting baby E's pics and vids up to facebook and all but I have been keeping my net life to a minimum. I think I am on this reading frenzy for baby E. I am so into buying books for her. I don't think she needs more toys although I think more interesting ones are in lieu.

More of holding on for the perfect car seat to come along for her. Been looking around online for her. Brands such as Britax, The First Years, Maxi Cosi and Safety 1st. Looks like choices available. So anyhow, hoping to be able to see it soon. baby E's been fussing in her current car seat about more room. She has been fussing and fussing, whining and whining in her car seat for ages. Although she is not very big (a small baby compared to most 7-8mth old babies) she just wants more room.haiya.

So must look at car seats and must bring her along when we want her to try before decide buying. She must like it. If she doesn't then pointless to buy. At such a tender age of 7 going on 8months she already knows what she wants. I mean at age 1month or so she already knows that she does not want more milk.

I need to look after myself more. Been so so tired lately. Aches and pains all over the body. Need to get myself up to activity again.

Also starting on my driving lessons, talking about that better log on for my online lessons and book dates for test. I think Dec would be a good time as well as Jan , Feb to push up on lessons. But looking at my schedules hai..Anyway, if I am asked again would I prefer money or more off days...I remain the same. I prefer more off days. Money is something which you can earn back but you can never bring back time. So the trade off is there but I think I will always prefer more time.

Its our first wedding anniversary soon. I think I would love to go skating that day...strange but true...
