Another month flew by so fast huh?
November is like a recovery month for me after a thunderstorm series of unfortunate events of Freaky October.
It's like a breather to me. Doing nothing special, doing nothing much. Quite thankfully actually. Just sufficient time for me to regain my composure, organise my life back to normal, and to remind myself the blessings I have and no dwell on what's-not.
Nursed myself to health. Strong as a cow. But unlike the real milking cow. As I mentioned, I was suffocating in the midst of exhaustion, I decided to wean off breastfeeding. I see my Medela dying like a sign. Haha. And now, I feel - free. Well, freer at least. Not attached to the electric point, not having an affair with the pump, no need to worry about where to pump outdoors. More time for myself. More time for touching and playing and donkey laughing and feeling the warmth of Baby Maya when I hug her at night - because I'm much happier and tension-free with what the extra times on hand. Which is wonderful!
I thank whoever the inventor of formula milk because now, my girl can still get her supply of calories, DHA, other essential acids, gangliosides and etc nutrients.
Finally, my transfer letter is out. Thank goodness! About time!!! Came to my knowledge that there was a complain email, addressed to the more superior person in office and then, voila just over the weekend --> we got our letters!! Damn! If I knew earlier that all it takes to get job done is a complain letter, I would have done earlier! But it's okay. The lazy will always be inefficient and they will always remain at the same spot in their lives. So... I'm just thrilled of going back to civilisation! Am gonna take some personal leaves coming Christmas and hope it will be granted!
Busy introducing some solids to Baby Maya. Teehee~~ happily playing the dedicate housewife past two weeks in the kitchen! LOLOLOLOL! Steaming and blending fresh produce for my princess using my new Phillip Avent Steamer + Blender. How fun! Especially satisfying when I see baby finishing her purée. Yummy yum!!! I now truly understand LeHomemaker's overjoyed face whenever we finished up the food on table.
Also engrossed in recipe book for baby. Reading parenting booklet. This month quite domestic stuff. Wanting to be mum of the year. Hahahha!!! I'll learn to bake. Properly. Serious. Haha. I envision one day, Baby Maya and I will be baking together in the kitchen. I'll be sifting the flour, rolling the dough and cutting out cookies. She'll be smiling and happily decorating the cupcakes with sprinkles (standing on a small stool) and thinking I'm the best Mummy in the whole wide world!! Hahahah!!! One day.
We had Dear Hubby for a whole full week this month. For that, we are grateful. Also because of that, I realise how important is the partner in a family unit. It is not impossible to raise a child on your own (well, haven't I been doing?) but it is bloody hell tough! This journey has made me see my real endurance and strength. I'd always thought that the spoilt brat who eats expensive, dresses in brands and uses designers that I used to be (errr... actually, still am, but smaller part of me lol) can never handle this role that life had thrown at me. But I did. And I think I've done it not bad.
