Rushing from here and there

I had a long day and it’s amazing that I don’t get tired yet. Most of my days during winter were like so sleepy, tired and moody especially during nighttime. Even daytime I can’t stop my mouth to yawn and there were those days that I can’t help myself to take nap in the afternoon which I don’t usually do because of my busy schedule with my kids.
Early in the morning, I was in need to rush to post office to send some payments. Sending my mother money too for her check up because she got swollen face due to dental problem. It has something to do with her false teeth I think. She got short with her pension. I just hope she’ll be alright.
After post office, I supposed to come with a friend to a certain market but one staff from my kids school called asking about my middle child’s head lice. He just got head lice and I already treated him, had his hair cut very short and then the school called when everything is alright. But still I thought he still got head lice so I went to pharmacy and look for something to treat his head lice again. Oh what a waste of money. There’s no more head lice when I check again his hair.

By the way, I bought gold fish for my little one because he requested it last week and I promised to get him one. I also paid a lay-by jewelry because I was afraid it’s also lost just like what happened to my friend’s jewelry. Someone claimed it and paid the remaining balance. Poor my friend, she still didn’t get a response for her complain. Isn’t it so unfair? She still got the receipt of the down payment and she can’t get it back when in fact she doesn’t get the jewelry. I got mine safe and sound.
Moreover, I let my little boy played in the small playland at Chadstone shopping centre for an hour.  Before heading home, we had a slight shopping. Bought a set of tissue holder and toilet bowl cleaner. Son was sleeping in the car until we got home. I just let him sleep in the car than to woke him up and he won’t sleep back anymore. I left two windows slightly open but locked all doors.  Checking him once in a while. He woke up after an hour. Good thing he got a good sleep. He was happy to see his gold fish all set up. Big brothers were happy to see the new pet with fin also.

Furthermore, I dropped the kids after school to their Taekwondo lessons and I went to a friend’s house to catch up with her for an hour while waiting for my boys to finished their martial art class. I had a cup of chamomile tea and then rushed back to pick up my boys. Went home blogging, facebooking and checking my kids assignments. Oh I forgot to tell I watered my plants which I planted two weeks ago. I’ll show you the photo of my plants. Actually, I only want to tell a story about my plants but my story goes a long way and ended with my plants below.

I took the photo right after I replanted them from one pot to another. Now they’re growing very good and healthy. I’ll take another photo soon whether you like it or not. Oh dear what a silly post for today. Pardon myself friends, readers and visitors.

Designs lighting store

I went to a nearby designs lighting store because I want to buy new lampshade for my kids room. Actually I just drop by but I spent more than an hour because I got fascinated to look around. Their designs are very nice and they’re as cool as Dolan Designs that I saw online. I ended up just browsing around and I wasn’t able to buy one. I was running out of time. I got few minutes left and I need to drive back home because it’s the last day of school for term one.  Kids had early dismissal. Oh I missed my grade2 Easter hat parade. Sorry son, mommy lost her mind.

Torn between!

I have small time business and it is doing well. I’m on my way to the next level but suddenly a bigger business opportunity comes my way. It’s interesting, convincing and fashionable business that can relate to every woman’s needs. With my small time business I got enough time to look after my kids since it’s a home-base business. With the bigger business opportunity requires investment. Enough time and effort. Night-outs but for business purposes. Travel to other country tendency. I am a mother of three kids and wife of a grumpy and possessive husband. This a big challenge for me. if I pursue, I might leave them once in a while and take note; my husband is an IT career man.  Many things need to be consider. Isn’t it hard to focus on something when you know you also need to sacrifice? Will I sacrifice for the sake of the business opportunity or forget the opportunity for the sake of the family? You can sense the doubts in me. This will help and support my family soon anyway. I need more confident in order also to pursue it. I want to say I can do it! Aiming the target before letting out the money investment that I can say it’s not small amount. It’s easy to get back the investment as long as I’m determined. But I’m not desperate but I want to be desperate! Oh God please I’m begging..give me a sign…! Should I just continue with my small time business or go on with bigger business opportunity?
This business is not about earning. This is about me as a woman. My self-worth, financial freedom yeah also because I have just limited since I don’t earn much.  Most importantly,I need to grow more. So help me God. I need guidance.

Christmas clearance

So many good bargains everywhere. Very tempting and if you go out without enough bucks on your wallet, you’ll be sorry. Miriam take me to a place where bargains are amazing. I was fascinated with a pink Samsonite luggage as in!  But,  it’s not necessary to buy it. I don’t need it really for now. I was thinking to get it for my eldest son to use for his camping. What a funny idea to use Samsonite luggage for camping and besides, it’s pink. A proper camping bag will be better.

Lazy this Friday

I’m a bit lazy since this morning when I wake up. I did sleep well on the night but there’s a feeling of heaviness. My house is a bet messy and I haven’t cleaning up anything. I went to school to pick up my kids this afternoon and one of my Sri Lankan friend approached me. She just moved in to the house just near us. She’s my manicurist and pedicurist and I felt lucky that I have now a very nice friend living next to me. She invited me to come to their new house and have some coffee. One of our friend is coming too, an Australian friend. We’re having fun despite of a lazy day with all our kids around creating noise while playing plus some few people around doing this thing called aluminum fence installation. Oh well, they’re just moved in and there were lots of work need to be done. So nice of her manage to invite and accommodate us almost an hour.
