Battle of d Maidless..

I know..it's only been  5 days since Ramadhan started but i'm already preparing for  'balik kampung' and the maidless period. Not so much in terms of packing but more on mentally taking note of the do's n dont's. Yes i'm anticipating a bit of chaos, u see my maid is leaving home 8 days before raya, and 7 days after. A total of 15 days and the thought of handling everything single handedly scares me! Yes i have been in a comfort zone all these while. She's been a great helper and without..hhhmmm i feel lost??

So less entry on this blog and i dont think i can get any scrapping done. My children are clingy to say the least. They have never been left unattended. When 'bibik' is busy with the house chores, i'll be the entertainer. Even watching telly needs companion!! In their daily life, every single moment there'll be adult supervision so can u imagine how long that leaves me to myself. No time at all. I remembered when 'bibik' went back home 2 years ago. Shower to me take less than 10 mins!!! Hah!! imagine that..I dont chew on my food, more like swallowing before the drinks get spill and the floor is covered with crumbs. Hahaha..

So, mentally i am preparing for the coming battle here at home and when we rush for 'balik kampung' that involves a plane ride! Hhhmmmm with that in mind, i got myself a flat sandal to run after them and d kids..their own Trunki to keep them occupied, lets just hope my plans get executed well. If not..oowwhhh well, i can just pretend to be deaf n blind!! To the cries of course..

Oh you found some trunki's :-) Yay. Hope they work out for you & the kids. Your kids look adorable and so pleased with themselves hehehee
I laughed at the 10 minute shower! I don't even bother to shut the door now when I shower ... half the time one of them ends up in the shower with me hehee (it's easier than listening to them yelling! LOL)
Just close your eyes to the mess now and again and enjoy the kids - you can clean it up the next day ;-) All the best.
