Have been pretty peaceful, quiet, blissful and godsend (should I be punished for typing the last word?). Its been a week since they left.
The husband put the dining chairs up the table and that will be a permanent fixture until we all come back from Singapore in August. This will enable easy access to dirt and cleaning and also enable us to chase our cats and grab them in case they do not feel like being smothered by their mommy and daddy, hehehe.
Believe it or not, the cats have indeed started to bunk in our room since the kids have not been around to entertain them. I think they got tired of sleeping on the sofa and Mas' bed and the kids never returned. So when we go for our late night 'relief' just be careful of cat land mines. They're everywhere on our floor!
The kitchen counter has been clean all the time since they left. No food on counter (except every too often when paps got lazy and left the dishes on the counter, w/o soaking them and putting them in the dishwasher!) except again…pet paw prints or sand and mud! That’s ok, they're cats, forgiveable.
So we have been eating out since. Each time when we thought of cooking, the husband would say,'Yeah ok, we'll cook for 2 and whos gonna clean up?' so forget it…we eat outside do not have to worry about cleaning up the kitchen when done.
That also justifies our grocery shopping pattern. Only $20 last weekend when we were at the Asian Market. Just the bare essentials like my instant Mi Goreng, tonnes of fruits. No snacks for the kids, no extra milk or cereal for the kids…just 2 bags of groceries…how much easier can we get?
Most importantly…I HOPE THE HUSBAND IS READING THIS!!!
Sex life…eh no…relationship between the husband and I have been very nice. Very intimate, just the 2 of us. Like when before the kids moved here. Just him and me, me and him. We split chores in feeding the cats, mopping the floor and other chores. Mainly, he carries and does the heavy stuff and me the light stuff. I get more attention from him when I whine or when my tummy starts to hurt especially with the growing uterus and weight! I enjoy every moment with him. I know he will miss me for 2 or more weeks when I make my way to Singapore first. He will denifinitely miss me…right paps?

ooohhbest nyer nak balik kampung...wish i could do the same. anyway, isn't it nice to have some quality time together...*sigh*..my girls are driving me nuts..hahaha. kansas here is hot! well..not so today..it is actually nice and cool. heard that san fran is beautiful..have yet to set foot there :)
bunkerangs, how old are ur girls? dont all kids drive their parents nuts? and when they grow up, dont think that they will quit driving u nuts hehehe (now i am asking myself, why am i having another one here?).
the city is pretty warm and nice here. but the city where i live (only 5 miles away fm the city) gets heavy fog and mist. the city is chaotic now due to summer holiday!!!
my girl only 3 and 4 months old and start to drive me nuts...sigh...sgt la aktif, takleh dok diam, bercakap tak berhenti dan susah nak fokus, maksudnya kejab nak buat tu, kejab nak buat ni seems like dlm kepala dia byk sgt yg berlegar2...
tak pernah lagi i tinggal dia kat sapa2 for a along time, so takleh imagine kalau takde dia kat umah....aman bahagia agaknya, but i will miss her terribly...:)
ely may daughters are 6 going on 7 and 2 1/2 respectively. and my god, the ruckus they caused when they are fighting/playing or just plain watching tv. had a migraine attack yesterday due to the constant screeching and yelling..told my hub that maybe come summer we need to ship the kids out to singapore..hahahaha. but like what nohachomel said..kalau takder..wahhh..i feel like some part of me is missing :)
nohachomel, ur girl is soooooooooo adorable! u will realize that as she gets older, dia rapat sekali dgn ibu dia tau.
bunkerangs, oh my..3 girls. well now i understand the 'decibal' part cos my daughter is such a big nag to her brother that sometimes we just have to tell her to be quiet. even when she sings, tak tau perlahan2. so i can surely imagine having 2 more of such hehehe. i still wouldnt mind having another girl tho!
sending the kids back to singapore? surely u can do that! and u will feel the absence...then peaceful after!
ely, nice eh when when you have time to yourself, just the two of you. bila balik s'pore and if nak dtg kl, lemme know...the mengkuang gift pack tu still ada lagi ;)
Paps will miss you gila-gila one lah!! Sure thing one!!! :)
