Some updates...4th October

Nothing much happening lah... other than normal grouses from hired help...

It's Wednesday, 4th October today. Decided to stay put at home. "Lann Kai" whole day yesterday already....so obviously maid also take a day off when I was not around. How I know?? S2 had punched out some "flower-shaped" paper and there were some on the stairs on Monday evening,... and yesterday (Tuesday evening) I saw those flowers still on the floor. H said to warn the maid (ie Maid-A) and get rid of her if she doesn't want to work. But I decided to wait till today and see if those flowers are still there. Haven't checked... But you know hor...today I am IN the house, I see Maid-A mopping the terrace now... Otherwise sure.."thau lann" again.

The other day, H said "these two maids , not very smart is it?" ..he was away for 3 nights and when he came back, he was coughing so did not smoke (yup..still has not quit his smoking yet)... and the cigarette butts were still in the ash-tray after 4 days. They don't know how to empty it one leh...if you don't tell them. It's like everyday also must remind them to do certain thing.

This morning, S2 didn't drink his breakfast milk, so I told Maid-Y to keep it and I will drink it later..and she said YES. When I came back for the milk, she said that she threw it liow. Alamak!!!!

And...the gardener decided to NOT come to work today!! Think he doesn't want to work, I also don't want to employ replacement. Maids are soooo free, can ask them to do the garden as well... Otherwise, what do they do in the afternoons?? Tidur lah.....zzzzzzzzzzz

Boys... boys ponteng last Friday...need to go do our Residence permit and visas... and my god, not only they need our thumb-print, actually all TEN fingers and thumbs were required. Cialatt or not, you say?? Friend joked that she was surprised that they didn't require our toe prints!!! Ha hahaha...

Saturday? NOthing much ler..boys went for their swimming lessons at their school, which we have to pay extra lah, of course.. met some new Malaysian ladies...

Sunday?? Went to the market with some other ladies... over-bought food and fruits as usual.....

Monday? Cannot remember what I did lah.. on Monday.. Oh yeah.. H was ill so did not go to work.. So ended up watching telly the whole day ...up until about 4 pm, when I had to dash off to take boys to their mandarin class....

Tuesday..went out brunch and then exhibition with a friend. Supposed to be a textile exhibition, but ended liow..so instead, attended the furniture exhibition..okay ler.. on the way back, was really really jammed up. So instead of going home and then sending driver back out to pick H from the office again, I ended up picking H up...

Wednesday...well, today...is a veg-out day in the house for me... Maids must be hating me for staying at home!!! Ha haha..

Thursday, tomorrow...probably have to go to boys' school to help out in their reading sessions...this one is for S1. S2's is next Wednesday...

Until next time...cheerio...
