Totally Exhausted

Hi,

It was a whirlwind last week as it was a hectic schedule since I returned from my cruise. Had to prepare for the family gathering & run errands for the family. Well, glad that u guys & gals enjoyed the noodles.. U need several rounds of training before u can become the master chef. Even I do not know how to cook such delicious noodles la. But I won't bother to learn so that I can tell hubby to prepare his specialty anytime. That's the trick ah.

So, how I wish I can lie on the easy chair & enjoy the sea view this week. But not yet, until Grace has flown away tomorrow. Her last minute packing & shopping are usual & typical of youngsters nowadays, so what's new. Hopefully her trip out there will make her a more independent & organised person. Wait till she has to cook, wash, clean & scrub ah (like a houseperson). Then, she will know why we are called House Manager. Managing a home is no different from working. U need wits, planning and great co-ordination.. ha. ha.

Candice turn sweet sixteen today so going into adulthood soon is round the corner. That also means that it's been over 16 years since we had to carry this baby. Time waits for no man & I certainly feel myself aging over the years. Tho' I'm very much young at heart. Read recently on the news about how a mother tried to behave "hip" with her daughter & went clubbing with her at St James Power just to get into the heat of things. Too bad, I don't think my heart can take such pounding noises & senseless drinking & smoking. No late nights for me as I need to maintain my ageless youth.ha.ha. So, just blogging will do for the moment.

Did u all celebrate Mother's Day with your beloved one? I know I had the most memorable Mother's Day of all since it's like any other day for me. Regular family dinner & usual bitching. So, I should know that Mother or no Mother's day, the children will always be children. Don't expect too much to change or to be different. Guess I'll have to wait until they have their own family to realise the role the parents play. So, all mothers will continue to play their motherly roles with unconditional love & devotion, irregardless of the deal they get from their children. We do not expect reciprocal deal at all.

That's all for now before I exhaust my small brain.

Hope all of u have a good week.

Cheers
