The consequence of Chinese New Year dinners

xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

Well, for the Hubs, that is……

Some of the dishes we had included this red crab meat mince which my mother-in-law said was very, very difficult to make because it involved scrapping out crabmeat from it’s shell before stuffing it all back again. She pricked her fingers several times preparing this dish.

Chicken mushroom soup with 3 cans of abalone so we could eat as much abalone as we wanted. I really have never had the luxury to eat all the abalone to my heart’s content before but that night, I slept like an abalone, all abaloned out and content.

Mixed vegetable dish with sea cucumber and tons of mushrooms. This was certainly the culprit dish.

So.

After a voluminous meal, we all went up to our bedrooms eventually to prepare for bed when the farting started. Tee first, then the Hubs, then me, and very soon it became a competition. We were at war, attacking each other with stinky farts as ammunition. Some of us even had the cheek to fart into confined spaces, like under a blanket, and then push a head under. Sneaky, my family, I tell you.

All that fighting finally sent us to Lalaland soon enough but the next morning, the poor Hubs couldn’t wake up to wish everyone Gong Xi Fa Cai!!! Why?

Apparently, he was extremely uncomfortable all night and couldn’t sleep, tossing and turning, feeling hot and farting away with a stomach ache. Every part of the bed seemed uncomfortable and when he finally took the drastic measure of sleeping upside down (head where everyone elses feet were), he was greeted with a silent ‘pssssssssssssss………..‘ of the smelliest kind. A sleeping one at that. The hubs? He was immediately comatosed.

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!
