It's DAY ONE here in Kota Bharu sans the Hubs and we've had a fairly good morning without any dramas. I am seriously counting down the days before we fly home, just so I can feel at peace. It's just different when you are living in under someone.......click to learn what next.

I woke up this morning feeling like I'd been beaten up by a half a dozen gangsters with big sticks. None of my joints could move without pain and there was this huge mother ass of a bite on my neck, larger than a 50 cent coin. My.......click to learn what next.
It is 9pm and I am about to crash in bed. This is not normal. We arrived in Kota Bharu in one piece without dramas (phew!) and Tee actually slept on the plane for the first time in her life. Now this girl who has been on planes.......click to learn what next.
My girl is forced to be independent because Mommy has a lot of work to do so most days, she will find something or other to play with, by herself. Well, I can't be playing with her all day, right??! Sometimes, she will play her toys and games.......click to learn what next.
Today, in the bathroom just as I was about to give Tee a bath, I heard a thud followed by, "Oops! That's Daddy's poo-poo book." "What poo-poo book?" I asked curiously. "There!" she pointed into the empty bath tub, the latest HWM magazine (not playboy). "I accidentally dropped.......click to learn what next.
*fill in the blanks* I've been doing some thinking lately how difficult it must be for some people to find friends. Let's say you are the daughter of the Prime Minister, or some famous celebrity or perhaps your dad is Donald Trump; maybe you yourself are the person.......click to learn what next.
My girl will do anything for water. She failed to put on her bikini top because it was about to rain hence we were RUSHING to let her get a dip, just so she could get a dip, before the clouds collapsed on us. Because you know, she.......click to learn what next.
Now you know why Tee was in her red Santarina/Convict/Cockerel outfit. It was her last day at school and she was performing, but look at her! She had purposely pulled her hat down to cover her face and danced like a maniac ostrich style! Can you spot her?.......click to learn what next.
Pay it forward - have you watched the movie? I haven't but I've heard about it many times, the story about passing on a good deed. Ever since I started Tee on her nightly prayers, she makes me truly happy every evening with her words of gratitude. It.......click to learn what next.
I have my lovely daughter to entertain for the next seven weeks. Yes, SEVEN!!! Two weeks are taken care off because we'll be away but that leaves me FIVE WEEKS to talk to Miss Chatterbox; I suppose I should be grateful for all this quality time that we.......click to learn what next.
This is the first week of Tee's holiday from school. I rephrase - it's Tuesday. So that'd be the second day that she is home alone with me, moi and I. My nose is blocked. My head is pounding. My eyes are burning. I've decided that I'm not.......click to learn what next.
Frosty, the Snowman! Was a jolly, happy soul! With a corncob pipe and a button nose, And two eyes made out of coal! . . Tee loves performing. She is a natural drama queen. Except when it comes to actually perfoming in front of an unknown audience. *smile*.......click to learn what next.
We had some lovely visitors today at our home from the big, blog blanet. Uhuh. A lady and her two children with names starting with the alphabet of what Mama Joeys are, came today to my topsy-turvy home to play! Many, many months ago, before I had my.......click to learn what next.
So I finally got my Optrex. It cost less than RM15 for a small bottle but it relieved my eyes from the dryness and burning sensations. What I didn't like about it was it was housed in a glass bottle. I don't like anything glass around a toddler.......click to learn what next.
With Daddy's help, of course....and it was the yummiest French Toast I'd ever tasted. Thank you, my darlings. "I'm just stiring some egg onto the bread...." . . "But I haven't even removed my pyjamas!!!"
Yesterday at Edudrama, a little boy was howling because his Mommy wanted him to pay attention and not go outside to play. Tee went, "SSSHHHhhhhhh.......I cannot hear Low Tze!!! Quiet. I need to listen." Then later, the teachers (one dressed as a moon and another as a star).......click to learn what next.
Tee is an expert on the ways of the world because her father is constantly teaching her how things work. In their day to day lives, the Hubs would tell her where water comes from, how rainbows are made, how the planets rotate in the solar system, why.......click to learn what next.

My eyes!!! Oh, my eyes!!! They really burn.......and hurt.....smarting like fires blazing through the eyeballs. The last time I felt this was during Chinese New Year in Kota Bharu.

My little munchkin didn't want to go home after school as usual. It was as though she knew that it was the end of term at school and wanted to party like no tomorrow. We had lunch at BSC and then I took her to Times Book Store.......click to learn what next.
Tee attended her first baby ballet class today. For the clumsy gangster that she is, she actually performed quite well. The class started off with some songs and hand actions.
