I hate lizards!

Yes, I do! I hate 'em with a passion! And there's a wee one in my room right now! It's crawling on my room door! Went in to check on Sean just now and presto! The feller made a quick dash across the door! Nasib baik did not fall on me or I would have screamed and woke the whole neighbourhood. The worst thing is, there's no poison for lizards! I asked a friend who worked in Rentokil once and that's what she said! Aaaarggghhhh!!

Ok, nuff bout lizards!

Last Friday was my last day of work. At KPMG. :) I hope it's not my LAST day of work, ever. That would not be good though I thank God for the break from working life. I have been working since I left secondary school! Jason (that's my hubby) asked me how it feels to leave working life (for now) and...well, sad cos I do have good friends in KPMG. Other than that, glad for the break. Real glad to have a "physical" rest. But worried bout finances. Ah well, I have to trust God. Oh, for those reading this who don't know me well....I'm a Christian.

So, it's been 5 whole days of being a "housewife". ha ha! Me, a housewife. Well, I was never a career driven kinda person so I guess it's not so hard to see myself as a housewife. Except that...I hate housework! haha! The strange thing is, occassionally housework is a good way for me to release tension.

It's amazing; it's been 4 months since Sean was born. Where did the time go? The first month was difficult and exhausting and I thought I'd never get here but here I am! I'm still getting the hang of being a mum (I suspect, I'll still say that when Sean's 21!). Nothing reveals how badly out of shape you are than taking care of a baby! I so need to shape up!

Oooh! It's late! Or rather, very early in the morning. I'll sign off here. G'd nite world!

A new score sheet

Well! I have a blog spot! A place to put on "e-paper" my thoughts. Don't know if it'll interest anyone but I think it'll be therapeutic for me just the same. So here goes...

These past 4 months have been a symphony or sorts for me. At times chaotic, occasionally slow-paced, often times tiring with a much needed number of peaceful respites here and there. I've just entered motherhood for the first time. Nothing changes one's life more than that one sentence I'll wager.

My baby boy, Sean, is such a cutie! I know every mum would say the same of her offspring but Sean really is cute :) He looks a lot like his dad and is a cheerful lil fella. It scares me big time the responsibility I now have to raise him well.

I feel like keying in a lot of what I've been through these past months in this one posting but that'll take time and memory I kinda lack (one of the signs of adjusting to motherhood; a frazzled memory!). This'll do for now. I hope to be able to add interesting postings as often as I can. Good nite world. Sleep tight.
