The Kiddos

I enjoy moments spent with them. As much as I have complaints about AN's stubbornness, about lack of rest, about little things that hit me along the way, I feel blessed because I have what truly belongs to us.

I enjoyed AN when she was a baby, enjoyed watching her learn and grow. She amazed me with every new thing she learnt to do, every new word she learnt to say, every new behavior that made her different every year.

With ER, she's a superb sister, sharing things that she couldn't bear to share with others, watching over him well, keeping him company when I'm busy, entertaining him and making him laugh.

Both of them can play hide and seek with each other on the bed for up to an hour every nap and bed time, using me as a wall to hide behind. ER will always be the one to seek AN out. And AN will always be the one making sounds to lure him to find her.

I think God gave me the most perfect combination of kids.

I'm blessed.

AN New Favorite Hair style

She loves the flowergirl/ bridal looking hair lately and would request I pin a flower to finish off the style. She wanted that even for school but it wouldn't stay neat for long enough.

She's only going to get these styles on selected weekends.

Pardon the messy pictures. my first attempt at creating a photo collage.

ICockroaches

Mr Liow was in the kitchen with me the other day and all of a sudden, he brought me aside calmly, saying he had something to tell me. Took me aback... He led me out of the kitchen before telling me he saw a cockroach. Immediately after he said that, I saw it too! HUUUUUUGGGEEEEE ONE!

He killed that one, meaning to say, if I saw 3 the first time, there should hopefully be 2 left.

While packing rice to my mum's place (I bought organic rice for ER and wanted to pack some for mum to cook at her place for him), I noticed heaps of cockroach wastes....duh....I don't open that part of the cabinets much because there were only seasoning in there and I don't cook much, thus hardly a need to associate with that part of the kitchen.

The cockroaches must be happily nesting there.

I wanted to clear the wastes....and saw a teenage cockroach!

With every ounce of courage in me, I wound lots of paper towels on my hands and tried to catch it, alive.... Every strand of hair on my body stood on their ends. Arghh....!!! I still feeling like screaming as I'm recounting the event 5 mins ago.

I think I killed it. I pounded On it so hard I think I heard the wood on my cabinet crack. But when I turned the paper over, the cockroach wasn't there. I expected a dead body for all my effort...

I hope it's dead and buried among that thick bunch of paper and not have escaped while I was in a maniac trance,pounding on the side of the cabinet.

I hope we're down to 1. Or better still, I hope that one is smart enough to leave our home while it's still alive.

How glad am I that I'm not in a battle with lizards! I'll NEVER ever dare to go near even one....

Please, no lizards. Please.

ER's First Fish Porridge

It's Threadfin he got for dinner last night. Or "Ngor Hee" in dialect.

Most babies in Singapore get porridge very early. Hehe. I thought I'd prefer to build up on the iron intake before giving them more of other 'lighter' food. Call me paranoid, I'd rather every calorie in their food is packed with something more than just carbo, for a start at least.

Maybe that's how I created 2 picky eaters. Hmm.....but at AN's age now, she's no longer picky and eats almost everything (other than meat, unless made to. Like me.)

Anyway, my mum made him porridge for dinner to go with his fish. Threadfin is a common fish for babies here in Singapore. Asked my mum why she ALWAYS has to insist that only threadfin is good for babies (every baby that ever went under her care had threadfin and spinach for most meals...and I cal even recall how it tasted till now, because i had it as a kid, and because I had that too when mum looked after other kids).

When I made AN's porridge, she got Salmon and Cod at a later stage...for a start, we'll just stick to threadfin.

Mum didn't believe in preparing stock in advance. She said it's no good giving babies 'overnight' food...what can I say? I'm at her place and she's doing the preparation..I'll probably make stock on my own over the weekend and bring over, because she will never agree to using 'overnight' stock and make any.

Of course if she's making soup and has freshly made stock for ER's porridge, I'm more than happy to use that. Else, I think it'd be nice to have the porridge further packed with nutrients from stock than just plain water.

I brought with me, pumpkin that I prepared the weekend that had just past. So his porridge tasted a little sweeter. Yummy.

And he seemed to enjoy that! He readily opened his mouth for more after he tried the first spoonful. He didn't stay interested long enough for me to feed him a lot but he did have about 2 tablespoonful of that meal, maybe more.

I'm hoping he remains interested! That's my hope to a better weight gain in him. He's a boy. I'm praying he doesn't remain as petite as his sister. Better if boys are big, tall and strong. Hehe.

But if not, I pray he will always be healthy.

I still have pumpkin. He's going to have the same fish and spinach for the next 2 days to trst for allergy. I'll steam broccoli to freeze in the next few days...or yes, I have avocado too. He'll have avocado in his porridge today.

Yum yum.. :p

Phone is Back

Took them only 3 working days this time. Have I mentioned the last time I sent in my phone for servicing, it took more than 1 week and when I called to ask if it was ready after waiting for that long, the customer service guy told me my phone had been repaired but it wasn't indicated in their system where it was. Meaning: they lost my phone after repairing it.

After 2 days of locating it, they called to tell me that they would be giving me a brand new set because they had 'no parts' to replace the failed component. I suspected they lost my phone, but that is fine with me. Hehe.

This time, I guess all that happened to it was, some program I installed didn't go well with it. It didn't take them long.

The best part was, my pictures are all intact!! I was prepared to lose all those photos and videos because the phone wouldn't power on and I would not be able to back up those media files before turning it in for repairs. And I was informed that I would lose those data.

The technician who brought my phone back to life must have heard God ask him to leave my files alone, because not a single picture is missing.

I'm so happy. Hehe. They are ALL safely in my external SD card now. I wish there's a way to have pictures taken, saved directly into my SD instead of my phone memory..doesnt seem to have a setting for me to make that happen.

Hmm...

But one step at al time. At least my photos are all back too!

Monthly Gathering

We went to meet the girls at SY's home today, after meeting them last in March at Ting's. It was AN's b'day in April, and me being unwell in May.

As usual, we had tonnes of things to talk about, even more so now with kids (education for the preschoolers and milestones for the babies). I'm glad I blog, coz they get updated along the way. Come gathering, I don't always remember what I have been waiting to update them about.

The girls were in the room happily playing (they should be, else someone, anyone will come running outside to complain, and none of them did.), and the little tigers bonded in the living room. It was chaotic but I enjoyed it lots. I can still remember when we used to meet as young girls, we dressed up nice, met outside and gossiped all we wanted. Now, it's really all about the kids...

And as the kids grow, it's hard to not get worried about their education. Mummylim is in search of good phonics enrichment classes for S and that made me wonder if I should too, get AN spme help. What I'm doing with her now will take her forever to learn. hehe.

Mr Liow reminded me though, that AN can only enjoy childhood as a preschooler for the next 2 years or so. She will learn to read and write, if not this year, next year. If not, the year after. Someday, she will. These will probably be the only stress-less days in her life (not stress-free, but days of less stress). Once these 2 years pass, she will start attending Primary School, and have less time to enjoy being a child.

Not that I'm taking this as an excuse to stop teaching her, but I guess Mr Liow managed to put me back on course, back to our agreement that she will learn things that are fun to her. Leave school work to school. What will happen in the future, we will handle that in future.

It was nice watching the children now. They play all they want. Compare that with schooling Hannah and Mercia, Ryona and Ryanne, they are really blessed to still be young.

And ER started crawling all of a sudden! He had only been doing leopard crawls at home but when placed on Genevieve's floormat, he started crawling on 4s. I was worried he'd knock his head on the floor should his arms give way but they didn't, and he happily crawled on the mat.

I should let him crawl on the floor more. It's probably harder to crawl on the bed...?

He's still cruising, sometimes letting go and stands on his own on a few seconds before losing balance. When will he start walking?

Only Yogurt

ER is another difficult baby to feed. Have seen an 8 month old baby whose mum was feeding him one day outside at the food court and it's such a pleasure to watch him eat. His mum said he loves fruits and most others.

Sigh...

So far, the only food that he has willingly opened his mouth for was green peas and Bellamy white rice cereals. And he doesn't always appear keen to have them.

I have recently found something he seems to enjoy and his liking for it remains consistent. That which attracts his taste buds....would...be...YOGURT! He liked Yobaby and AN loves that too, so both share a packet. And because we ran out of Yobaby, we have Yokids (till we top up on Yobaby again, soon). He loves Yokids even more! He'll be at the edge of his seat, excitedly looking at the packet of yogurt in my hands awaiting the next scoop of it.

I haven't compared the label but Yokids tastes sweeter...higher level of sugar I suppose. Nit sure by how much.

Am going to get more Yobaby soon.

My kids have exotic tastes.. I've had people telling me most kids don't eat vegetables but AN does. Not only does she love vegetables, she loves the stem, sometimes even more than the leaves. She loves olives, mushrooms, spicy stuff and other weird food most kids probably wouldn't eat if given a choice.

Well, at least she eats and her choice is healthy. If ER will be like her, I'm going to have to tolerate the next one year or so of pickyness before his eating habit picks up. By then, like AN, he should have more choices of food and will be able to eat what we eat. by then, he should have a good appetite.

I'm hopeful (the yogurt gave me hope that I have not found in any other food soon after he started eating). Just pray thAt he'll notnbe undernourished till then!

Phone in coma

This is the second time I had to leave my phone with Samsung Service Centre. This time, it hung and wouldn't turn on after I powered it off to reset it. And to think this was a brand new phone to replace the previous set that wasn't repairable because they had 'no parts' to replace whatever was to be replaced.

Who would have thought a brand new phone would slip into a coma after only 1 month...

I will lose many many pictures and videos of the kiddos because I didn't back them up into the external SD card, because I never expected a brand new phone to do this after just 1 month...

...........

All our pictures taken of Festive Hotel and at USS......all gone...

Thank God I had all of BM's pictures transferred to my portable HD else I'll have to leave the kids at home one day to bang table at Samsung.....!! How can this be happening....so frustrating....sigh...

Innocence

Mr Liow was performing magic and AN was so amazed by how he made stuff disappear. It was nothing fanciful, just very fast movement to hide those stuff so that AN couldn't see that he didn't cause those stuff to disappear. AN has a cute description for that act: "daddy exploded the socks!"

AN tried to make those same stuff disappear the same way Mr Liow did but wondered why she couldn't do it.

I suggested she stare hard and put her focus on Mr Liow's hand... And then Mr Liow went "poof!" before he swiftly hid her socks under his thighs...

And because AN concentrated sooooo hard, she literally saw something which splashed onto her face. She quickly shunned but was too slow, and then she went:"Something splashed onto my face!"

She stopped for a while and then realised in horror: "Daddy's saliva splashed onto my face!!"

Hahaha!

We couldn't stop laughing for a while. Her reaction was too cute! Imagine getting hit on the face with saliva while you were concentrating really hard.

She got the idea

So, AN has really gasped the idea of word blending. As of now, she's only capable of 2 letters. I asked her how to spell words like "on", "of" (and "off"), "at", "an", "it", "in" etc and she does it for me. She's attempting simple 3 letters like "and" because there's only 1 letter "d" more than "an" which she already knows (besides those 3 lettered words that end with "an" and "at"...yes, we are still at these because I had been so preoccupied with the clingy ER who is my koala bear baby and haven't taught her new words)

Phonics is amazing! We used to learn to spell by memorising but with phonics now, as long as you know how that word sounds, you will be able to spell, or at least get the spelling nearly as right. And it doesn't matter if you are only 4 years old (and even younger kids who can already spell because their parents taught them early).

Why didn't we learn phonics in school when we were young???

ER has Teeth!

Just yesterday, MIL was commenting that ER was still toothless and Mr Liow's cousin's daughter already has 4. My mum is wondering why too.

I'm in no hurry. It's not as if he will never have teeth. It will make no difference to the rest of his life even if he sprouts teeth at one year. I've heard of babies who are toothless till 14 months and has 4 at the same time.

aN had her first sign of pearlies at bat 6 months. eR turns 9 mths this 20th.

He was chewing, or more like rubbing his gums on my thumb when I felt sharp edges!! Another 'first' that my boy has passed! On this day, 20th June....WAIT! He's 9 months old today!

He cut his first 2 Lower front teeth at exactly 9 months old!

AN learns to spell

I'm an impatient teacher. Had been teaching AN 3 letter words and going very very slow. I've only touched on words ending with "an" and "at" but there are some days she forgets. She knows how each letter sounds and can blend them but to have her read out that word, she gets it wrong sometimes.

Maybe I expect too much. It's not as if she doesn't know those words. She needs time to get used to blending letters, given that she has only started learning phonics for less than 6 months and only sounds if individual letters.

Then something miraculous happened in the past week. She recognized "to"!! Each time we read now, she looks out for the word "to" and read it out. That includes the word "too", for obvious reasons. Hehe.

And today, while she was typing away on the notepad of my iPod touch like she used to enjoy doing (that was where she learnt spell her own name since she was slightly less than 3, before she learnt to write letters), she typed the word "of" and excitedly ran to show us.

I was so proud of that!! I haven't taught her "of". I thought we can take it slow and start alphabetical order.

Got to remember not to force her to learn...she will learn if learning is fun. If it'd pressurizing, she'll hate learning.

Judy, remember!!

Good Homes

Went to pass BM's documents to Serene this afternoon. Those documents do not belong to us anymore. Baileys and Maen do not belong to us anymore...

It's hard sorting through their documents. We have receipts of each of their first vet visits, sterilization cert, the export to Tucson and import back to Singapore certs and a thick stack of documents, vet visits in Tucson, food receipts, their first license etc.... We're hoping to give only what is necessary and keep the rest to remember them by.

A little update on them:

Baileys:
He's been adopted by the boss of Tong Heng according to Serene. Mr Liow went "Wow!" and not wanting to sound ignorant, I kept silent and will ask Mr Liow what company Tong Heng was. After a while, I couldn't hold any longer and ask. Tong Heng is the cake shop beside Maxwell Food Centre I think. I asked but while Serene was explaining, ER had to start fidgeting...
-__________-".

She a single lady in her 50s, and healthy (so Baileys will not be orphaned but by then if he really is *touch a big tree*, ER should be old enough and he can come home to us! Anyway, she has a Jap Spitz who's the apple of her eye. She liked Baileys but had no intention of adopting him initially.

Her Jap Spitz was boarded with Serene for a week or so and this lady, when she came back for her furkid, appeared to like B. She had concerns that B will bully her Spitz whom she so loves dearly but Serene assured her B is the typical gentle CKCS. Serene had turned away many of those who appear interested because those do not appear to be people we can entrust the furkiddos to. This lady is a regular customer and Serene knows how she will treat B like treasure if he does go home with her.

She took B home to see if the dogs can get along and they did. B has been there since and Serene assured us B is very loved at his new home. He has a Cantonese name now. He's now "Kong kong", meaning healthy in Cantonese.

Serene has a picture of B with his new buddy. They were both lying on his new mummy's sofa.

That's cool. B and M have always loved to lie on sofas but since AN came, they weren't allowed to do that much. Now B gets to have all that again. And he gets cooked vegetables together with kibbles every meal.


Maen:
Maen got a lot of interested adopters. Why are we not surprised? She's cute, small, silly and very very very affectionate. My silly girl has always been a little charmer.

Guess who she's with now? She's with the family of Mastercard's VP.

Ok, I don't know who he is but that sounds like a very rich family she's gone to. She has a Shih Tzu companion now. It's an ang mo (Caucasian but we have yet to find out which country he was from) with a Singaporean wife. No kids and supposingly not in planning. Im sure both B and M will love to have kids in their new family but I just hope the family is not in our situation now. 2 young kids and no helper.

Maen will still be called Maen. In fact they call her " Mei Mei" which is what we always call her besides Maen.

Bad news is, they took her to the vet for a regular checkup and detected slight heart murmur....the last they had a checkup, it was in Tucson before we came back a year ago. The vet confidently told us they were healthy. Not just fit to fly back, but healthy with no major concerns. I distinctly remembered asking about heart murmurs because they were 5 years old then and he said they were both fine. Both their hearts sound good. Why at age 6 is her heart in trouble now...

This is not something we can hear and ignore.. :( when Mr Liow told me last night, I couldn't sleep well..Maen has heart murmur...

Serene said the new owners told her it's very slight and she doesn't even need to be medicated for it. I sure pray so...

And Maen has a weak knee. It 'clacks' when she moves her hind leg on one side. All the while I thought that was just stiff limbs because e 'clacking' happens only once in a while.

Serene says the new owners love them both to bits. We are assured to hear that but do not feel any less guilty. We have given up the best things that happened to us during the start of our lives together..Snippets of the time we spent together kept flashing across my mind..

My sole consolation is, they still have k9 companions. Maen has a SAHM with her and Baileys has a single mum who shares her love between only him and his buddy, and no one else.

We can't wait to meet them. Give them a few more weeks maybe, and at the first convenience of their new parents, we will pay them a visit.

As much as we miss them (we had been getting itchy patches on our bodies, ESP AN and I. Mr Liow says we are allergic to NO dog fur....!!), i feel happy knowing that when I'm away from home everyday, they are with people who love them and not neglected, waiting for us to come home.

We pray they will be healthy and happy. Please Lord, watch over them. Please do not let Maen's heart murmur worsen. In fact, we pray the next time the vet listens to her heart, it will be as normal as any k9's. And also, please keep her from reaching for the skies every time she jumps. Please protect her bad knee...

ER, unlike AN, will never know the joy of having fur siblings...he was with us at Pet Instinct and giggled when he heard a dog barking in the background. The moment the dog stopped barking, ER appeared to snap out of a trance and started staring around the unfamiliar store before crying in fear of the environment. Just a month ago, he was enjoying facials given by Maen and giggling at Baileys who had been sneezing.

I don't know what to make of this...is what we have, or do not have now, good or bad?

We miss the fur kids...

No time for investigation

Don't know what I've been so busy with lately, so much that I have no time to blog much now.

Just for the record, my yahoo mail should be up and going soon. I've deleted all my contacts, changed my password. That should hopefully stop the spamming. My sincere apologies again, if mails had gone to you from my account with nothing but a link to whatever.

And one post I made from phone phone 2 nights ago were status "Published" but it went missing....must have gone to Mars..

Anyway...

Got to leave again. I heard the coughing little tiger crying for help.

In All Fairness

I seem to fall sick all at the wrong time.

Mr Liow is meeting his guy friends and this date had been fixed for a while. But while I was hoping he'll stay home to help, I also understand that it'll be too unreasonable to ask him to stay home to help. AN wanted to follow him but was flatly rejected. For a minute, I thought I could just entertain only 1 kid if AN went with him. But no, so AN stayed home with ER and I.

I struggled within myself. It's unreasonable to make him stand the guys up, it's better AN stays home with me coz she's not well. But what about me? I need rest. Not only do I not get help with even 1 kid, I get left behind to handle them and try to not let the sore throat, cough, runny nose hinder my duties.

It must be the flu that's making me feel selfish again. He did ask if I want him to stay home and I said no.

Best thing to do now is to sleep. I hope AN will sleep soon. She had been asking for milk since an hour ago, then sweet corn, then honey water, her bedtime toys, and now medicine. It's frustrating to have to keep getting up to meet her requests. But she's so sweet. When I asked if she was really hungry (coz if she wasn't, I'd prefer to rest), she said yes. When I told her I felt very unwell, she replied: "then nevermind,mummy. You rest ok?"

Those words made me get up for her. At 4 years old, my daughter is willing to go hungry so I can rest. I can't shortchange her.

I hate to fall sick. Back when I was working in the office, I didn't mind falling sick. Now, I can't afford to. I feel handicapped...

2 Month Sick-free

The last time any of us in the family was sick, it was back in April during AN's birthday party. The birthday girl was sick.

It's been a good 2 months and we had been well, occasionally displaying allergy-like symptoms but haven't been really sick.

But today marks the end of the sick-free period. Both kids are coughing, AN is starting to sneeze with mucus flying out from her nose, and even mummy me is sniffing away. My throat feels weird too.

Still, I'm thankful that we had 2 months of well days. Previously, the kids took turns to fall sick and they hardly were well for more than 2 weeks in a row.

Thank God for that.

Back from our short getaway

Mr Liow booked a room at Festive Hotel for his birthday but postponed it to this week coz he had important things at work to settle.

Off we went to Sentosa after AN's school on Wed.

We had no programs planned for Wednesday, so Mr Liow took AN for a swim while I lazed in the room watching TV while nursing ER. It was really good having nothing to do...I'm missing it so much just by recalling past days' events...

Mr Liow planned for us to spend the day at Universal Studio Singapore (USS) on Thursday but it was extremely cloudy. We decided to go another day (we had till Nov to utilize those tickets) in case it rained and spent this day wandering around Sentosa. Had fun too at the Skyride & Luge. AN enjoyed herself soooooo much and that made us very happy parents. I couldn't wait to return to the hotel to laze further but took the sky & luge ride with AN. How do I refuse an extremely excited preschooler? She couldn't wait to show me what that ride was about. Mr Liow and I took 2 rides each and she had 4 coz we took her with us on every ride. She proudly requested: "Mummy, you should say thank you to me because I brought you up with this skyride", because I wasn't sure where to go and she was coz Mr Liow took her previously. I thanked her and requested that she thank me too, coz I 'drove' her down in the luge. She said there was no need for her to thank me because "I had to bring you up...you don't even know your way up..."

Oh well...

After the going-up-and-coming-down, we went to the Underwater World, packed dinner to have back at the hotel and ended the day. AN slept in the babycot we requested for ER -_____-"

We initially decided to have AN go to school today (Fri) but when I had to wake her this morning, I couldn't bear to. She was sad the night before when I told her that would be our last night. She loved the hotel stay as much as I did (mainly coz she enjoyed climbing up and down the bunk bed and sleeping in the babycot). And Mr Liow had to wake early.

Since this was a holiday, I asked if Mr Liow agree to allow her to skip another day of school which he gladly agreed. Our little girl got an extra day of fun :)

Seeing that weather wasn't too hot, we spent the whole day at USS after checking out.

It was super, extremely, terribly, horribly HUMID! I wished we had another night's stay (AN too, couldn't stop asking if we'd get to return to the hotel after this). But the hotel was full and we couldn't extend the stay :(

The drive home was sad....coz that was the end of our relaxing getaway. AN is old enough to feel post holiday blues at this age too. She started sobbing and asking when we'd come back to the hotel and USS again and repeatedly spoke of how much she liked the hotel.

We will be back. With 2 kids in tow, going further may not be ideal. I really don't mind doing this again! :)

P.s: Mr Liow got an sms from Serene informing that B has been adopted. We pray his new family will love him lots and that they will be blessed by his steadfast loyalty. They have a 9 yrs old spitz. B will have company. But the thought that B and M has been separated makes me go weak. I wonder how each of them are taking it :( M will no longer be B's companion and vice versa....I haven't just lost them both, I've cost them to lose each other....we sort of thought we'd get to meet the new owners before they leave with them but then again, we told Serene we trust her to find them suitable families to go to.

She suggested we give B time to settle down in his new home before visiting him...

B...M...

I can't start recalling how they always plays (played) with each other without tearing..they may probably never meet each other again... And ER will never get to grow up knowing he ever had fursiblings.....

The pain is back...Baileys, Maen.....mummy misses you, together and individually....

Big milestone

ER was on his back but flipped to his belly because he didn't want to sleep. He had been trying for about few weeks to push himself up so that he rocks on palms and knees without success. He finally did it today. He didn't just rock, he balanced himself and sat himself down on his butt.

Another one big achievement!

Got to go. He's shifting towards his sleeping sister now. This boy doesn't need to crawl to get around....

Sweet Moment

Was watching a show in the room coz I was sleepless. I then heard AN turning behind me and didn't think much of it. She wasn't just turning in her sleep. She actually got up, gave me a hug and a light peck on my temple before going back to sleep again.

My baby...I don't know if ER will grow up to be as sweet as AN. This little action of love from my baby girl is enough to make me smile in my sleep after this.

Damn those cockroaches!

Saw the appearance of 3 cockroaches in a matter of 10 mins in the kitchen.

First sighting: I was preparing to make a nice cup of milo for myself.

Screamed for Mr Liow who came, found nothing, and dismissed it as "gone away" before preceding to walk off. I asked if that was all he could help me with, so he came back to keep me company while I continued to make milo...

The sickening pest appeared again and hid itself, all in a split second! Mr Liow didn't see it, and he couldn't find it.

The third time, I had a strong hunch that something was under the microwave. True enough, there was one there. I passed a whole bunch of newspapers to Mr Liow to whack the creature. He took a piece -____-". Needless to say, the hardy cockroach survived that massage-like therapy.

Mr Liow sat and waited. As if the cockroach will drop by and say "hi". It didn't even budge when he banged around the kitchen. The one under the microwave kept so still I thought it was a dead cockroach...

I suggested he shift the stuff on the kitchen top coz that was what made the cockroach move both times, besides the one under the microwave.

He got bored waiting, again calmly declaring "can't find", then walked out. Without helping to put things back, leaving me in the kitchen helpless.

Maybe I should do it myself. I killed the one in the toilet, I can go crazy and kill another.

I'll dump a brick on the cockroach if I have to. That little cockroach in the toilet died under a big roll of toilet paper. What's a piece of paper to a med sized pest?

And really, for simply walking out without a care.........what does that show?

It's ok. I will learn to do pest control all by myself. I'll leave you alone to play online poker. Sorry I disturbed your game.

And in case you thought I was unreasonable because I was upset with you, because the cockroach got away, I was not upset at that. I was in no mood to chat with you because the sickening pest will still be in the kitchen tomorrow when I prepare AN's breakfast and ER's lunch. What surprised me most was you walking out without informing me...I thought you were going out to get something to hit the cockroach...and you walked out a second time silently.

I know. It's just cockroach. So, nevermind anymore.
