Mayhem May

I know I last posted in April. A friend has been bugging me to update my blog. So, now that I finally have time for a breather, let me quickly run you through this mad month of May.

First of all, I was shocked to find out that May Day (Labour Day) holiday has moved to October. I knew one of the holidays in the first half of the year moved to the second half to give us more public holidays in the 2nd half of the year, but I didn't realise that it was Labour Day. I told my husband that we might as well move Christmas to July, cos that's when it's in the middle of cold winter and we'd have every reason to have a roast meal.

Then I had this swollen gums that affected my chewing of food. I eat a lot. With the swollen gums, I'm taking twice as long to finish my usual portion. By the time I finished my food, I was half hungry again. What a vicious cycle. Went to the dentist and found out that my two upper wisdom teeth are not grinding on any bottom teeth! And my bottom wisdom teeth right the the back of each side have two more hidden ones in the gums, waiting to come through! And at this good age of 33, they found a baby tooth. They were all supposed to fall out by 12 y.o. This one forgot. I'll have to get them removed. I'm still brooding over it..

Mother's Day is in May. I don't like how it's being commercialised. But at the same time, I do understand companies needing to make money and would go along with the special occasion. Our MOPS (Mothers' of Pre-Shoolers) group had a MOPS Sunday Service. It was a week after Mother's Day. I do enjoy running the morning, but it's an extra thing to this busy life of mine and I struggled to keep up-to-date with everything. It ended well, everybody knew more about MOPS and I didn't bore anyone to death.

On the bright side, we celebrated little miss' 2nd birthday. Specially baked a cake and she was excited to clap her hands along with the song.

Skipped our wedding anniversary celebration as I was totally engrossed with the Mother's Day Service.

Went to Miss 5's school fete and I twisted balloons. Met quite a few parents and chatted with them. There was always a line waiting for balloons, but I had so much fun twisting for the person in front of me that I hardly noticed.

Miss 5 was claimed as a classmate's girlfriend and I thought that that was hilarious! I've heard of children say that, but never thought that it'd happen to my own girl! :)

So, this is it, a mad month of May. Sphere: Related Content
