I don’t go to work…

My mind is always taxing on everything that I want to finish before I deliver my second baby from making my little Munchkin’s scrapbook, editing some videos taken during our vacation, transferring to a new flat (hopefully, we find the flat that we wanted) to getting organize again the wardrobe of our upcoming baby boy. I know for sure, that if I’ll not finish all those stuffs and some nitty –gritty things I would be having no time at all for I’ll be occupied with our new baby and my naughty-yet-sweet toddler.

Yes! I don’t go to work but I ‘m occupied with house works everyday. I don’t go out to make a living but giving my full time,care,attention and love to my family is great enough than going to work and putting my toddler in a nursery with dozens of kids of different nationalities and be yelled at or bullied by another child.

I no longer go to work yet I have my daily routine of work…I do the laundry, iron clothes, cook meals, mend some broken stuffs, clean the house, do the dishes, do some needlework if needed, dust furnitures, fold clothes and keep our closets well arranged, vacuum the floor and keep our haven tidy from all the messy toys and books of our little darling.

You are right! I’m now a plain housewife who changes our beddings every weekend and do the bed everyday. Kept all mirrors and glass surfaces free from dusts, does the groceries every weekend (of course with my loving hubby and my little munchkin and soon I’ll be having my baby angel so just imagine me finishing our groceries while pushing a stroller for a newborn baby with an active toddler who can’t stay in her stroller while tugging another trolley for the goodies!)

How I wish I have some superpowers like the mom in the film The Incredibles! Surely in five minutes all of my errands would be finished. But wait if I’ll be having some superpower then little munchkin Andrea would be having hers too for she is my daughter, oh no! I can’t handle it coz surely she’ll be the “violent V” heheheh and my baby angel would be like “Dash” I guess I can’t handle it …So it’s better to be just like the other normal human beings.

Back to my being a plain mom who doesn’t go to work but does all the work in the house, I’m also the all-the-time-regular playmate of my little bunny (who’s 19 months old) and the all around “yaya”, a teacher, a friend and a mother. So as you can see my hands are full already of jobs to do so why would I go out and need more…

Maybe yes but after four to five years or more…who knows?

A surge of unpleasant feelings sometimes engulf me when thoughts of insensitive exchanges or conversations are being processed over and over on my brain. Sometimes, people don’t even try to weigh or listen to the depth and magnitude of what they say even sometimes it is liken to an acid poured directly on my being.

I don’t know if such conversations were being hurled at me with no certain meanings or just being keen on what my reactions would be. For one, I did not want to be tested by who ever, for whatever it may serve her purpose. Take a look at this one scenario, a person told me that she wanted to adopt my second baby. No matter how close we are or not, I’m just a like a mother hen who wanted to protect my chicks! And not to mention that a conversation on that idea of her wanting to adopt my baby occurred not only once but couple of times; what the heck is talking or asking about?

I was on my first trimester and lucky me that I did not suffered a lot of nausea or some sickness unlike from my first born, but this telling me such stupidity makes me feel sick!

Blatantly I retorted in a calm way my objection to what she wanted, but deep inside me I Was so furious. Where on earth did she get an idea of me giving away my baby? Seriously speaking or even if it was a form of joke but on my part I took it as a form of mockery with no sense at all. What she thinks of my baby a piece of meat, a pet dog
Or certain objects that can be given away just like that.

For whatever her reasons, be it a selfish one or not; I did not get her motive. Is it to help us? Why? She just wants to have a second baby because she’s old enough and incapacitated to produce another one. But my God! We are not talking here of some piece of a furniture or whatever, it’s my baby! We are not in need for whatsoever be it financial or what. The reason I have to stay in the house and quit my work it’s because for my children, for my family. And there she is blabbering with those nonsensical things which I for one thing did not considered hitting her back even I wanted to. A mock to myself,
Being a mother and a dagger stabbed to the inner core…my heart!

There are lots of kids in the street, or even a poor relative who has no financial means in bringing up their kids then why not ask from them. Or just even focus on your family and take care of your child I guess that would be the best!

Another afternoon spent on checking a flat but we didn’t like it, it’s old and has this not-so-good ambiance so we decided to have our dinner in A & W and afterwards went to Jarir Bookstore. At last, I got hold of “Memoirs of a Geisha” and “The Vince Code” both popular and bestselling novels.

We also bought four recipe books, one is on how to easily prepare fish, and another is on how to cook stir fry, one recipe book on Italian foods and another one for chicken for all seasons. Dad Nath is looking forward to eating a gastronomically satisfying meal, I hope I can make it…
