I knocked off at 5am this morning. Woke at 9am. It’s like being back in Architecture School .

Brought T1 to a “pink-pink” themed birthday party at Caterpillar. I love parties like these – short and sweet, because really….how much excitement and sugar can 2-3 year olds take?

All the presents presented were……one guess? Duh, pink! They looked real pretty stretched out against a long counter, various prints, ribbons and textures of wrapping paper. The kids had face painting, enjoyed cookie art, did some boogie-ing in the dance studio, had a treasure hunt and had tons of cake and jelly.

Met an old friend at the party – senior executive of Hwang DBS. He asked me if I would like to do some technical writing for him. On financial stuff? No thank you. Not only am I NOT qualified to write about finance, it is so dry la….macam ikan kering. But how I wish I knew how because he’d pay me good.

After that, we went to do our week’s groceries. Now, for the longest time, my Fairy GodMother has paid our grocery bill (because if she didn’t, we’d be living on bread and sardines like in the Bible and there’s no way she’d have any of that) but today, I wanted to do a full week’s groceries at the supermarket to know how much it would really set us back if we did not have a Fairy GodMother.

RM389.18 !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

So I have a resolution. I will be wet marketing from next week onwards. Because RM4.50 of Pak Choy can be obtained for RM0.70 at the wet market. I kid you not. My friend tells me she only spends RM70 per week on fresh produce from the wet market. Then some additional at the supermarket for processed food. Once I go to the wet market, I will tell you what my adjusted bill is. Gotta save money.

Just as we were to leave for home, T1 insisted on having a pretzel to which we refused. Because. She not only had tons of sugar already at the party, she had a donut at the supermarket AND asked for a muffin as well.

Meltdown.

Asked for my phone. Pressed Speed Dial 2 and the Green Button. She knows how to call her Nana and her Daddy, when confronted with a problem. On Speed Dial. Whined. Cried. Pleaded. Taled to Nana.

But we stood firm.

That was our morning.

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.
