This and that
It's Friday lunch time and usually the ladies would be measuring the kaki lima to shop, window shop, makan minum dan bergossip. I'm at the office and i do feel a little left out. Tummy's too heavy and giant legs can't move that fast anymore and rather than spoiling everyone's fun, opted to stay back at the office and 'do some 'work'. (The blanket and tikar are beckoning me but with less than an hour to go before meeting petang ni, i'd better not or risk getting a headache from too short an afternoon nap).
Anyway, i've decided that baby has to pop out on 17th May. I wish it could be later so that i get to finish all bussiness matters but i do not want to risk it popping out early. Yes, i've opted for elective caesarean...why? Because i'm 'too posh to push'...OK call me mengada2 or anything, the actual reason is that i'm scared..oh yes, we have epidural and all that, had it last time pun, but there is one part that i worry, more than the pain of contraction itself, which i'm not telling. Btw, little D was born through C-section as well, but i did huff and puff at the beginning.
Anyway, home front wise, everything's back to normal. MG finally put little D's bed together and yesterday we were supposed to place her there, in her own bed. But since the bed was at the corner of the bedroom, kipas tak kena. What?? No aircond this day and age??? Well, i have a problem with aircond, my feet freeze up when i sleep with the aircond on, and my nose gets blocked. Tapi yg herannya, tido kat hotel ok pulak. Even when we go back to my parents' house, we don't sleep with the aircond on although all the bedrooms are airconditioned. So, little D ended up in ma&pa's bed with MG and i had to sleep in her bed. You see, i am no longer producing any milk but to little D, this is OK..as long as she gets to bergayut like anak org utan whenever she pleases. No milk means your you-know-what gets a little bit sore and sometimes i resent being treated like mak org utan. Tapi kalau i takde or she can't smell me, OK pulak. like last night. MG did a perfect job of unzipping the thermos bag, whipping out the botol susu and stick it in her mouth. And she continued sleeping till morning. See! After 2 years, i finally get to sleep without being groped or molested. So, it does not matter aku berpeluh bagai nak rak pasal panas and being waken up by Monty who was confused to where i was exactly and when he figured it out, dok menebeng sama kat katil baru. So, all praises to the husband whom i hope shall continue being the father toad (i saw in nat geo where this species of tadpoles are looked after by the father and not mum) and let me have some peace at night before the arrival of another bundle of joy (and another 2 years of sleepless nights).
The new maid hasn't arrived yet. Kata si agent tu esok. But anyway, the present one is leaving this Monday no matter what. Looking after little D on my own will be overwhelming! I was so closed to offering her to anyone who'd provide her with a good home last week at Ike@ (while looking for her bed). My mum mula2 kata boleh dtg utk teman i pas tu when i called last night macam rasa berat hati pulak..rumah tak kemas lagi lah, kelas agama akan banyak miss lah, kaki tak laratlah etc. Of course i terasa because so far i takpernah mintak dia tolong jaga anak i kecuali masa i dlm pantang dulu. Lagipun, i mintak dia tolong teman i just in case the new maid tak sampai lagi. Bukannya suruh dia sorang2 jaga little D. At least my MIL offered! When i told her, ok la mak, tak payah lah kalau mak banyak hal. Lagipun mak MG ada offer ni...she said yes because i think the last statement sort of psyche her up but still hati mungil ni dah terasa. My sister has four children OK. And mengikut sejarah dan hal semasa setiap kali my sis outstation she and my dad akan berkejar menjaga cucu2nya. Why the double standard? Oh, i forgot...little D punya mak bapak 'kaya'. So enough said, tak nak la banyak bukak pekung pasal mak bapak ni kan, tak baik.
Two days ago was little D's bday. Macam iasalah mak bapak cheapskate dan pemalas ni tak buat party pun utk dia. Nasib baik tak, you know why?? She was scared of the cake at first. I'll just loadkan one pic, other's will follow suit later. Excuse keseksian MG. Camni la laki aku berpakaian di rumah. (sesiapa teruja tengok 'muscles'nya, boleh contact i utk 'business offer'<---i need money utk masukkan aircond for master bedroom ni)
