Today is a very special day. For once I did grocery shopping all by myself. Without having to lug the kids with me, since they will be staying over night at MIL’s place. I left the office 545pm and I finally arrived @ Tesco Mutiara Damansara at 630pm no thanks to the heavy traffic.
It’s not very often that I eat alone, but somehow when I have such a chance, I couldn’t decide what to eat, hence I decided to have KFC Spice Crunch for the 2nd time :P. I started my grocery shopping just when the clock strikes 7pm, pushing my trolley slowly and ransacking every nook & corner of Tesco. Yes, I never do that usually since the kids are with me. I usually do a dive, buy & run kinda grocery shopping LOL. But it’s very weird that even they are not around, you still think of them..half the load are the things I purchase for them, be it consumable or non.
This really tells me how much space they’ve occupied in my life…every minute, every second, every step I take, every lil thing I do, they will be part of it (even if they are not there physically).
OK, enough of feeling-empty-rants. There won’t be anymore newborn photos coming up for at least the next week (someone mentioned she had enough of newborn pics LOL). Will be posting up my trip photos, stay tuned :).
hehe…don’t feel empty..just enjoy the moment..it’s hard to have “me” time..
hehehehe, always when with kids around we complain, when w/o them we feel so empty and miss them so much.
It’s wonderful to be able to slowly read the labels n compare the prods b4 buying eh? 😀
Btw, u’ve been nominated! Come chk out ur awards.
Yalor, we moms are so “fan chin” LOL… we love being tortured by the kids!
Agree wt Sue 😀
haha….i’ll try not to think of them and enjoy my shopping time! LOL
its good to spend time alone 🙂 i think next time when i really have kids, im really going to suffer 😛
I feel that all the time whenever I go out without my boy. It’s like, we want meme time yet we miss them right….. mother.. ‘fu meng’ 😛
good to have “me” time
also good to have kids arounds…
heehhehe we want everything,
I always feel empty when I go on business travel. I always wished my children was with me or maybe not.
haha.. i feel empty only when i am on the way home after finish shopping
It’s good to be away from our kids once in a while… to get a respite.
hahahaa…..women are really funny eh? we yearn for some “me” time but when we get it, we keep thinking of our kids 😀
yes, but better enjoy the “me” time while it last. haha!
hahahaha! Happened to me too…. I went for my ‘ME’ time and ended up buying lots of stuff for Darrius.
Yes it’s so weird being alone isn’t? But I love it! hahaha
I think all mothers the same. I try to have at least 1 day off in a month for ‘me’ time – it’s to do my hair, sometimes pamper myself with manicure. Then I head off shopping and it’s mostly for Aiden!! Alamak….
Psst – I’m delivering in Nov, and yes, will definitely consider the photoshoots for my girl ! I love your photos !!
haha – cant live with them, cant live without them. The ‘Me’ time is very therapeutic, but you end up missing them
when my son is not with me and I’m all alone, I dunno what to do. HAHAH but he’s with me, I feel so tired.
I know how that feels… Since I’m CONSTANTLY with the kids!!! Well. when I eventually get my time out…I’ll love for a while then feel empty… Hehehe… I guess we’re stuck for life! That’s why they say motherhood is forever once you’ve started..
Being mother is like that, having “me” time, but the mind is not..once the kid not beside us, sure we will be start thinking what are they doing at the other place and hope to rush finish our “me” time…hahaha..wat the heck!
