♥ Friday ♥
It’s been quite a weekend for me. I was at driving centre for lesson on Friday. It was a bad drive; I was sleepy and panicky at the no. of cars on the road that day. It ended with my instructor nagging at me. Can you even believe it? A naggy man…
After which I went to Great World to meet up with my hus and we had a very late dinner… A good prawn noodles ended my bad evening.
♥ Saturday ♥
I woke up naturally, dint stay in bed longer cos I wanted to prepare Caesar salad for hus. So I got up, clean the dining table a little and started grilling chicken for the salad. Then I got him to teach me how to run the washer cos FIL is going to be away until 10th Apr. I really enjoy the private time now but the disadvantage to this is that we have to take care of our mess(inc the floor, laundry and food). Nonetheless, I’m doing this without complaints.
After the washing, hanging and ironing, I went to Andrew’s to join their bible study… I came across this passage in the bible that describes the character of a noble wife(proverbs 31), the adjectives seems to be describing somebody familiar… My Mother-in-Law… From the way her family talked abt her, she’s like that. Isn’t she a remarkable woman? She has left that impression in her husband and children…
I told hus about the passage, he read thru it and agreed with tears in eyes… Hus is a person with little emotions, he rarely expresses himself. Those tears touched me within, I want my kids to think that way of me too… but how?
♥ Sunday ♥
I went to AOG, tanglin, with Hus for the 9am service then to FCCS for 11am service to join the youths… Nothing much abt the sermons which I wanna bring up... Well, I beginning to think sermons are always going in circles. It talks abt relationships with God and peps, then Jesus’ life, death and resurrection… Having said that, I know it’s still important that we are always reminded. I fully understand abt humans’ absentmindedness and ungratefulness…
After church, I went to movie alone… Haha. So happy with myself, I realized there isn’t much difference with watching with Hus since he always “Shhhh” me or dun react to my speaking… so it’s the SAME. I watched “Because I said so” – it’s a mum who want to plan everything for her youngest daughter Milly, played by Mandy Moore. She’s really a bitch in the movie, couldn’t stand it myself.
Then Hus and I went to IMM to buy a micro sink for our micro toilet… then we headed to IKEA, tampines. It’s designed to bring familiarity to shoppers, it will beginning with showrooms; then living furniture, bedrooms, kitchen, kidsroom, cafe. Kitchen wares, rugs/carpets, paintings, lights, etc downstairs...
It wasn’t the best shopping trips I ever had… Hus & I have very different priorities in when it comes to buying furniture. I want things that last and look good. He wants things that look good and less costly. The difference is our idea of durability. I think people usually won’t change until things really spoil beyond repair, therefore buying something that last longer is impt, so that we wont have to live with creekings & warps for a long time. Whereas, Hus thinks buying things at a lower price means we will be more readily to throw it once it’s outdated and doesn’t work as well.
I have doubts abt his stand; as cost-saving as he is now, he will be when it comes to deciding to throw or not… hence, I’m not very obliging.
But I feel that my views really dun matter, cos if FIL or BIL would to say something, Hus will change his stand whether or not it contradicts his initial, so mine is usually negligible… how sad?... that’s my Hus’ way of dealing with our home.
