Terribly Tired
I am feeling terribly tired from the long hours each day, not the long hours from work, but the long hours away from home. On average, I reach home after 10 pm on weekdays and I feel very tired. I remember when I was pregnant with Jordan, I slept on average at 9 plus 10 every night, but now, I m not even home by that time! How I wish I can just eat a quick dinner, pick Jordan up and go home and rest on weekdays. I really cannot stand going from one place to another, cuz what I really want to do at the end of a long day at work, is to take a nice bath and have a good restful time at home. Even if it means bouncing around and following my little toddler around, but at least I would have bathed and settled down at home and be more relaxed.

I really feel so irritated that my hb can actually consider exchanging baby cots with his brother! As it is, our space is already quite cramped with our present cot, I can't imagine a bigger one, how to push out of the door? And we really need to be able to push it out of the door, cuz there is barely enough walking space with the cot in the room. If his brother's cot is too big, why can't he just fix it and leave it in the room?! And serioiusly, why the hell did his "claim-to-know-it-all" wife not have the good sense to measure the cot before buying it?!!! Nobody does that unless u have a very big area in your house. And I feel even more pissed cuz we spent a lot of time looking for a suitable cot for our pl. Most cots out there were too big and it wasn't easy to find a small one that fitted our budget. I do not know why my hb has to be so accomodating towards his family. I have had about enought of it. This just brings me to remember a lunch 2 sats ago, when I was rather pissed cuz we were rushing like mad just to accomodate his family's timing. I dunno why the heck we have to when we have a baby and everyone knows how unpredictable a baby can be. What happened was that morning, we had brought the baby to East Coast for a walk and had a late breakfast at around 11.30 am. After that, my hb called his family and learnt that they were gng for lunch at some restaurant at 1:30 pm, so he told them that although we have eaten, we would still join them. It's like he did all these without even consulting me! I was certainly full fr the brunch and had no intention to eat lunch at 1:30 pm. Furthermore, Jordan had just fallen asleep and he needed to bathe and eat his rice cereal before going out (cuz it's messy to feed him cereal outside). So anyway, the story goes that my hb was very unhappy cuz of the brunch and kept rushing me and of course, I was irritated. Cuz why the hell should we rush to accomodate your family's timing when we have already eaten? We could have jolly well not gone, if not for the fact that he wanted to go. Sometimes, I feel that our lives are so controlled? Why do we always have to accomodate others and let our lives be run by them? We need to have our own say and make our own decisions and live our own life. Sigh..continue another time, no mood...

P.S. I HATE HER
You know, there are some people that you just cannot bring yourself to like no matter how hard you try. No matter what comes out of their mouth, even if it's just a seemingly innocent comment, it makes your blood boil. I can't explain it but I know for certain that if the same words were sprouted by another person, I would have felt and reacted differently. I just feel immense resentment the moment I know I m going to need to meet her over dinner or if she is coming over to visit. I have tried to be cordial, but I wonder how much more civility and cordiality I can continue to "bestow" upon this person, whom I find absolutely evil and who absolutely disgusts me to the core! There is absolutely nothing praiseworthy about her that I can find to talk about.
For those who already know who she is, she is none other than my BIL's wife..yes, I refer to her as my BIL's wife and NOT SIL cuz I do not see myself related to her in any other ways except as stated above and I want nothing to do with such a person as much as possible. Using SIL would be too high class for her and anyway, I only use it to refer to my hb's younger sister.
So what has she done this time round to infuriate me so much? The following are some of the things I totally cannot stand about her and these are also the very reasons why I WILL NOT allow my son to come into close proximity with her (as much as I can help it) and especially so when he learns to reason and learn.
1) She pestered my BIL to carry my son when he was outside smoking and then told Jordan in her sickening china accent "Jordan, learn to smoke, learn from uncle how to smoke, heeheeheeheehee"....can you imagine how damn evil that was? My hb said he is gng to tell her daughter next time "Joey, smoke, learn to smoke, just like how your mummy smokes" (For those who do not know, she smokes, and I do not mean "smoking" here as in fabricating stories altho in actual fact, she does that too. )
2) Despite knowing that we do not want to expose Jordan to computer games at such a young age, she purposely flashes the "DS lite" infront of Jordan, catches his attention and then snatches it away from him, leading him to cry in frustration sometimes. How evil can that be? If you dun want to give it to him, dun even show it to him in the first place to tempt him! She is like the very Devil himself!!
3) Knowing that Jordan loves controllers (in fact, anything with buttons on it, like hand phones, air-con controller, etc), she will purposely bring the TV controller to him (even when it was out of sight initially) and flash it in front of him, tempting him to grab it. Then when he actually does, she will snatch it away from him, causing him to cry in frustration. I dunno why but somehow I just got this feeling that she is somewhat psychotic and enjoys watching babies cry and not forgetting to add that when this happens, she will end with her signature evil "heeheeheeheehee".
4) She likes to make unnecessary comments and talks even when there is nothing much to talk about. Like how she likes to comment whenever Jordan has so much as a slight scratch on his nose and she will comment "how pitiful!" "Kim, I think you better cut his nails" when she didn't even so much as took a look at his nails, because if she did, she would have realised that I have already cut them the day before!!! And I absolutely hate it when she purposely brings it up in front of my MIL, you know, it's like implying I m not doing my job properly as a mom. Despite the fact that I m a working mother, I can say with pride that everything I buy and do for Jordan is after careful research and homework and I do whatever I believe to be the best for him cuz I want the best for him. Certainly, I m concerned if my son scratches himself or has his nails too long, I do not need her to remind me time and time again. If she has nothing better to say, she can jolly well shut her big gap up. And all the best to her baby who has a mother like her who only knows how to talk, is ignorant about things and likes to boast about what she does not really know. She can let her baby wear mittens till she is 7 months old for all I care!!!
5) She likes to offer lots of impractical, stupid and unheard of kind of advice, such as putting sugar in water and giving to baby, feeding the baby a full egg (meaning egg yolk and egg white) twice a day, etc. (We all know that babies are not supposed to take egg white until they are at least one years old --advice of PD) I can't be bothered if she wants to do that to her baby, cuz it's HER baby and no business of mine. But I m educated, well-read and well-researched and I do not need her to give me her stupid "kampong" advice, which is neither medically proven nor heard of. The worst thing about her is that she likes to repeat her advice on different occasions, urging you to try it but many of the times, when you ask her "so you have tried it?", she will sheepishly say "no". If it's not tried and tested, why do you want to share it with others? Unless the very "best" of your intention is actually to cause harm to others and you derive great joy from doing that.
These are but some of the many examples of how she pisses me off! I really pity her baby, who has a mom like her. Someone who does not know how to do anything right for the baby and who does not bother to be humble and ask people, but always says "I know, I know". So she knows everything? Then no need to ask me for help to buy her diaper cream and bean pillow. Cuz she is Ms Know-it-all and Ms Comment-it-all.

Maid or No Maid?
We were discussing this issue some time -- and we decided in the end that we needed to get a maid to help my MIL, who will be taking care of Jordan after I go back to work.
However, at the BBQ on Tue, while I was talking to my BIL's friend's wife, who happens to be Apple's good friend (but thank God, she is nothing like her), Apple butted in and said something like "When the baby is out 2 months later, I think you dun need to get a maid, cuz you have a ready one here (referring to herself), who will take care of your baby for you. It's good lah and you dun even have to worry about whether the baby will be ill-treated." (trying to translate directly according tot he way she said it in chinese) Wah lau, if she is so hard up for something to do, then go to the factory to work lah. There are so many factories in Singapore and since she CLAIMED to have been a factory worker before, she will definitely do very well in the factory!!!!!
!!!!! I didn't know what to say man..cuz it would be impolite to say in front of her friend that I dun want her to take care of my baby. Anyway, when in the world did Piggy or I ever ASK her to take care of our baby?! She didn't have to volunteer her services, especially when she is not a very qualified one to begin with!!!
Firstly, she has very long finger nails, and I really wouldn't want such a person handling my baby day in, day out...you never know when those sharp nails will prick the baby's soft skin, esp for someone like her, who is so psychotic and unpredictable, you never know when she will do something crazy. I will be damn worried if my baby were to be in her hands in future. Secondly, her horrible, high-pitched china accent is another thing I cannot stand. I want Jordan to grow up speaking Singapore Chinese, not some funny china chinese and picking up all those bad habits, like lying, splurging, complaining and taking things for granted, which is spelled all over her face.
All in all, I dun want such a helper for my baby, so she can jolly well "dun even think of it!"
I think Piggy really needs to talk to his mom about our concerns over Apple. At best, I can be cordial to Apple, but the fact is I still dun like her and I really dun want her anywhere near our baby. Anyway, Apple is used to people serving her, what makes her think she can become a "maid" and take care of a little baby?!!

My strong little baby...
I think Jordan is getting stronger nowadays..his kicks and punches can hurt abit sometimes..and he really moves about so very often, especially at night. Just this morning, I woke up at ard 4-5 am, to feel Jordan moving and punching around, so much so that I couldn't get to sleep for the next 1 hour or so.

34 weeks...
I will be 34 weeks tmw..last checkup was at 32 weeks two weeks ago. Baby was 1.8 kg and everything was well, except for the fact that I put on 3 kg the last round. My iron level was well beyond the normal range, 13.4 compared to 11.5 for a normal person, so the nurse jokingly said I could donate blood!! I m glad my little Jordan is doing well. I hope he continues to be a good boy and stay down all the way...
Was quite irritated with that bitchy woman last week. I really cannot stand people who indulge in self-pity and think they are the most unfortunate person in this world. Honestly, under normal circumstances, considering that bitch's situation, I would really have pitied her and be on her side, offering her comfort and such. But because it is HER and because of all the things that she has ever done to us in the past, I feel not a hint of pity for her. In fact, I feel that she brought it upon herself, to force a marriage onto a man who does not want any commitment at all. And now, she is trying to get the whole damn world to be on her side, to pity her, to cry with her, to tell her "We support you, oh you poor thing!" but it's something I cannot bring myself to do, otherwise I would be such a hypocritical wretch.
My only prayer, deep from my heart, is that she will NOT be physically near me or my baby too often in future, cuz the very sight of her irks me. The very sound of her voice is like tyres screeching and her very face irritates me. You know how some people have that kind of face which says "The whole world is against me, what have I done to deserve a fate like this?"..I really cannot stand it..I mean, there are so many people out there who are much worse off than you are. Dun try to gain sympathy through your superb acting skills. Like piggy said, although the other party is at fault but she still has to bear part of the responsibility for her own plight. She is making it sound like she is 100% innocent. Yucks! Can't stand her!!
