15 Marbles

Last night I went to bed with a purpose- the purpose was to plan out our weekly menu and my exercise schedule- and I fell asleep, even before writing the day/ date!
I haven’t gone for a walk in a long time- because it’s cold and when I come home,after dropping Babushka, I just end up doing other stuff. One of the girls on my fitness support group,suggested writing a schedule and putting in the exercise as a non- negotiable appointment- that made sense.
It didn’t work ..coz I fell asleep.And really need to plan menus- because early nights make me lazy n I don’t feel like cooking.Heading out to buy the slow-cooker now.What?I have more time during the day,to put the meal together,than in the evening! My reasoning to SD about why I want need a slow- cooker to save money- if I have the slow cooker,we won’t need to get takeaway:) lol yeah we’ll see:)

Babushka was unwell, so i kept her home today. Babychino was sick too..It was one long day here- they both slept at different times. The first time,Babychino took a nap,Babs woke her up..the next time,they both cuddled up and slept together for half an hour,I finished my lunch and Babychino woke up:)One thing after the other..everything took double time today:)
This Saturday when I came back from work,SD had cleaned the living room up,vacuumed the floor,etc..when I said wow,looks nice,he rubbed it in my face,that he managed to clean,feed the girls,have a shower..all when the girls were awake, how could I not. I was too tired then, and as always my brain thinks of a response only after, the talk is done and dusted. And then I think about it over and over again..that’s what happened this time as well..and then I realized,that- he had done everything,except two important things- cooking and eating! He had his shower and finished praying when Babychino slept.I use that time to have a shower/ cook something and try to eat it…now,I don’t feel inefficient anymore..:)
Like Babushka says,I am trying my best and really working hard!:)

This,Ladies and Gentlemen, is what my gorgeous girl gave me,for Mother’s Day!
The orange flower bouquet card is from indonesian lesson,the orange tea-cup and the other things were made during everyday session,and the clay bell was made in the Art class.She bought the white board,the orange lipstick holder and the charms bookmark,from the school Mother’s day stall.She decorated the whiteboard,using her stencil.
Through out the day,Babushka wished me,”Happy Mother’s Day”,in the sweetest voice, followed by,”I love you,mommy”…. She kept telling me,that I work so hard,so I need to rest and I shouldn’t do any work today:)
She was hungry and asked me for an Omlette Sandwich..and was getting impatient while I made it… I said,I M trying my best to make it fast..and then she remembered her motto of making me rest,and she said,immediately…oh let it be ..I’m not hungry..I am telling you to rest and relax,but you don’t listen…aah my sweetness,I love her so much!
We went grocery shopping and she insisted on buying a plant for me:)
She told SD to wake up early and make pancakes for me…I knowww..so sweet,ya?But somehow it didn’t happen..and she’s promised me that one morning when it’s a holiday, she will serve me breakfast in bed,even if she can’t make pancakes,she will serve cereal!
When I tucked her in,tonight,she promised again about breakfast and I told her Thank You and asked her,when did you grow up so much? You were just my little baby…She hugged me tight and said, but I M still your little baby mumma! My cup overflows!
Oh..and as for Babychino, she gave me a super-hot stinky poopy diaper,first thing in the morning! Lol! Yeah..that’s how my day began,and I wouldn’t trade it for anything!
