12 hours with my in laws from Kota Bharu

At 9am this morning, Tee and I dashed out the door like professional sprinters running errands for the in laws, and I kissed my husband’s toes for canceling the plumber’s visit today as I really would have broken down to the floor and cried my eyeballs out.

After completing our errands with breakfast on the go (pear balls, they had to be pear balls!!! WTF!!! Don’t ask me for pear balls when we’re in a rush!!), we arrived at KL Sentral to receive them when I got a phone call from the two old foggies asking me to call KLIA to look for their baggage.

Huh?

That’s like calling the North Pole Polar Bear Society.

Apparently, they had left some baggage behind but were already on the train into town. And phone service was bad.

I called and called. No response. Engaged. Answering machines. I told you, didn’t I? Have you ever tried calling the North Pole? On a Friday too, when many staff are busy at the prayer room.

The in laws arrived and I took my Mother-In-Law home whilst my Father-In-Law paid another RM70 to go back to KLIA to hunt down their abandoned luggage. As soon as we got home and unloaded the luggage, it was time to pick him up again and another 45 minute wait in the car ensued. Tee was bored and restless, after all, the both of us had already spent a total of 1.5 hours in the car all morning, minus driving time.

And then when all was settled, we finally got home to rush lunch where I had 3 people asking me for things all at once! Tee would ask and ask and ask for something non-stop till she got it, and Amah would ask and ask and ask till she got it and Kong-Kong will repeat his request over and over till I delivered. Could any of them see that I only had TWO HANDS on ONE BODY and could only do ONE TASK AT A TIME????!!!!!

Obviously not.

For a whole 6 hours, I was multi-tasking at full speed trying my best to satisfy the whole household. It was so frustrating as before I could finish one task, the next was requested. And it wasn’t anybody’s fault either because they don’t live here and do not know where things are. *sigh* Have you ever seen a whale getting electrocuted? It felt a bit like that.

So there I was, practising my octopus skills at full speed when I crashed for an entire 3 hours after. THREE HOURS. And then JUMPED out of bed at 6pm when it was too late to cook dinner. My in laws were complaining that they couldn’t find the oil, and the sugar, and the coffee, and the blablablablablablabla…….

I kept telling them that they should have woken us up! It was so embarrassing to think that their lazy ass Daughter-In-Law could sleep for so long and not see to their needs. I really should have set my alarm clock, I just didn’t expect to have such a long snooze.

Oh well……lesson learnt.

At 9pm, they finally left. I now have a splitting headache and a very sore body.

Who is Mamapumpkin?
Mamapumpkin spent 7 years in London committing crimes to gain her Bartlett degree in Architecture. She then spent 7 years as a Stay At Home Mom raising her children as documented in this blog of over 15 years thereafter returning to the Corporate World stronger than ever as the Country Director of a British Multinational. She sets out to prove to all, that you can have anything and everything that you want; if you have that fire of desire burning within and the drive to work hard. Even better with much love.

Mamapumpkin has not only grown corporate businesses successfully in the past but has grown not one but TWO network marketing businesses in the notorious MLM (Multi-Level Marketing) industry, achieving success in under 2 years. She believes in the MLM business model but realises the DRASTIC PITFALLS and great stigma attached to it, understanding EXACTLY WHY the majority would shy away (or RUN for their lives) from ANY MLM business. But open your eyes and take time to understand it intellectually, remove your hang-ups, confirm your research, and you may just want to seize an opportunity. She did. And no, she never went about chasing people for sales. She had a sophisticated system work for her through technology and a smartphone.

She now impacts lives authentically with proven strategies amassed through the last decade of her own transformation offering online coaching programmes and always supports the underprivileged. She believes that we can all have a life of our own desires to enable real contribution into the world. But first, one needs to understand what this all means.

A beautiful life without limits.

If you wish to learn some tools to propel your life forward guaranteed, be brave enough to make contact as her life's purpose is to build people. She operates through a discovery call after which she will commit to helping you. Or not.

Most lose out on an opportunity because they are afraid they would be sold to, conned or whatever fear resides in their brain without even trying. And that's on them.

Mamapumpkin is a living testimony that women really can have a lot. Being financially and time free has enabled her to travel the world anytime, anywhere, doing anything, and she spends most of her days with her children, having fun, and supporting others wherever she can. Also having fun.
Show your support and spread the love!
