I start blogging

After 2 years of having absolutely nothing to do, I've decided to turn a new leaf. It is the new year, Obama has taken over & the world is looking brighter. Though what Obama's taking over has to do with me, I can't explain; but then everyone feels hopeful, so maybe I should too....

So I've decided I should do something new. I looked for a job, found none; tried spending time with the kids, and they shooshed me away (ma! go away ! I'm playing!)...Where do I escape to, except the internet. Friend suggests blogging. I say, about what ! They say, Just do it!

Just do it, huh? Husband often asks, so what did wife do today? hmmm... writing sounds different from "nothing much" ....and it cant be too difficult, right? I did write letters when I was 10...

So I'm all set...I've taken a bath, cooked some sweets (you have to look your best & have food ready, in case people insipred by your blog come knocking by)..and get down to serious work...

Now what shall I write about?hmmm... Think think think

....and the bell rings...its the courier - madam, can sign here, ah? please write IC number....oh pen! sorry lah, i forgot. can borrow, ah?
Ca-aaan! I donate a pen....


I still cant figure out what to write so I decide to pick up my 2 year old from the nursery. We get back, and he's like -Ma? kaka where? neil show kaka butterfly. Ma wants to see the butterfly too, doll; but no no no - first viewing rights belong to the girl friend! So I dutifully reunite him with the love of his life...


With Neil now (hopefully) occupied, I sit down & think. I'm sitting, thinking and after 30 minutes; I'm getting thunked out. All I can think of is - what to think about? I do think strangely, dont I? Thankfully kaka arrives- Mum, you still wanting thai curry tomorrow? But don' have lime lif! how to make ?

And, with amazing timing, the phone rings too...its hubby dear - Wi-ife, did we pay the kids fees; and by the way, how much was it?

Finally, I understand ! God is telling me something - I'm not supposed to do any thinking, and definitely not any writing... I should stick to what I do best - nothing much. So here I am eating the gulab jamuns I made this morning (hmmm... hmmm....nice) and doing - nothing much
