How nature always inspire...
yes it slipped my attention that my lime plant is again invaded by caterpillars...4 icky ones! I really have such a great compulsion to rid them but somethin held me back. Lookin at one of em changin form, about to develop into a cocoon stage, I am reminded of my own situation.
It is really frustratin tryin to be a good mummy's girl stayin home after work, especially turning down dear ones' requests to meet & catch up. I miss hangin out & it really breaks my heart everytime I have to turn down someone!
But i guess some things in life have to take priority. After much consideration, I thot...when else can i be a better daughter? After i get married? I'm not so sure & i'm pretty sure She is not countin on that either...cos my focus would then be more for the husband & Not her, even if we live under the same roof. Tis is really tough but tis is what lil sacrifice I have to make, to keep the one i call Mother, happy or at ease or perhaps a lil less Lonely. Right now she needs my attention & most definitely my help especially to prepare ourselves for our rooms switching before November.
I'm really really hopin for a tad bit more patience & determination goin thru tis period of pre-wedding preparations, in whatever form it might be. To some, 4 months might seem a long time but in terms of weeks & days, there's not too many...I really hope I will make my mum think a lil better of me & that she will not be losing her only child, her precious daughter...me
Sophie, don't make her feel she's losing a daughter, make her feel she has gain a son.
ReplyDeleteGet lots of help, parents, auntie, uncle, cousins, friends and this 4 months will be a breeze. Time to be shameless. Hehe...
ReplyDeleteLook at it this way, this 4 months is the last time you have to bond with mum and rest at home. You'll need all the energy later.
*hugs* hang in there babe :)
ReplyDeletepre-wedding months are full of trials & tribulations (remember our last bondin' session, how stressed i was?)
When i thought there was no end to it, finally it came and went and all seemed to be better. I hope for it to be better for you too. Dont worry too much for those you have to let down for the sake of mummy dearest, cos Im sure they'll understand. ((hugs))
Like lyd said...those you have to let down will definitely understand.
ReplyDeleteNovember will come soon enough! Troop on! =)
onward supi! u can do it.... hey hey at least u'll still be under one roof. imagine my mum... we had tons of heated arguments before my wedding and lots more naggings.... comes with the territory babe. happy cocooning!
ReplyDeletea case study that i learnt during my pre-marriage course abt an only child whose fiance wanted her to stay with his parents with 3 brothers when they get married..leaving her widow mum alone..
ReplyDeletebut im glad for u, u all will b staying under the same roof.. lets look forward to a happy family yea.. insyaAllah..
its okay gerl....dun be sad...after all ur only left wif few more months to give ur mom ur outmost attention b4 rendering it totally to ur husband. hey staying at home not so bad after all tau..can save more money for the wedding n honeymoon...hehehe...
ReplyDeletenanti u dah officially with ur mesye 24hrs, u can regain back ur whole new freedom! trust me...the midnite movie is far more shiok-er wen ur mom's not worrying abt her doter coming home at 5am! hehe
alamak the ulat can throw away, can?? so the geli!!!
II'm sure your mom will never think less of you.It's just the kids thinks that we're not doing enough for the parents.I hope you'll share your burden with other relatives. From what I understand,the prep is actually tougher than the wedding day itself.May you have all the strength that you need be given to you...x
ReplyDeleteIts actually a blessing that u are staying with ur mom. Now u can "keep en eye" on her pulak when u are married. And oh.. u will have a Mum-In-Law an instant! Just be reminded of this quote from some Malay drama I watched eons ago, "Seorang ibu boleh menjaga beberapa orang anak tetapi seorang anak belum tau boleh menjaga seorang ibu." So be a great mother to your kids, a wonderful wife to your husband, a caring daughter to your mom and a humble person to your friends.
ReplyDeleteAnyway its not about cocooning ah, its about taking priorities differently. Heh..

ReplyDeleteBabe, there are priorities in life. I'm sure those whom you rejected understand why. Take this period as spending quality time with your mom. Have a fun time together & shoo those bad thoughts aside.
