Coping without any help

Well, I’m still here, aren’t I?

How did the agency find out about my helper’s 2 handphones? Well, one of the other maids got caught so everyone on her handphone list got called in after they drilled her for information. It turns out my helper was so involved yet I couldn’t believe it and kept telling the agent that it must’ve been a mistake. I kept telling them she was quite honest, although slow and not focused. But boy, was I wrong! I’m never going to trust again! Just so you know, she was a University graduate so I really shouldn’t have underestimated her. Anyway, good riddance to bad rubbish.

The house is one big mess but I’ve managed to feed everyone everyday. We’re on Day Five now sans help. I haven’t lost it yet. I am tired but it’s OK. It’s not forever. And the feeling is so much better because at least, I know we’re drinking clean water, eating clean food, wearing clean clothes and doing things correctly.

Tee has been absolutely wonderful. She is instinctively helpful, folding her clothes, entertaining T2 whenever the need arises, showers herself completely, keeps her things away, and generally helps wherever she can. Such a gem. She is truly special. Shockingly so.

I took her for a haircut today because we no longer have a helper to dry her long hair for her. Especially at school after swimming because the monkey just cannot manage drying her long hair properly before entering an air-conditioned classroom. So we chopped it all off. She still looks cute. I’ll post pictures later because I haven’t yet downloaded them.

So…..with or without help better? For me, definitely without help. My friends abroad all tell me that the entire Western world does it and so can I. So I shall. And I will.

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!

  2. Actually, I’ve been doing since.. I got married! No maid, yes, before marriage, my mom had maids..HAHHAHAHAHAAHAH. We both can’t stand the thought of having a total stranger living with us.

    So.. not only the western world..even in Malaysia, boleh!
