Things weren't going smoothly for me ever since the day Xmas stepped in. Xmas eve was ok, a normal celebration at my aunt's place and we had a fun and nice bingo game and I won $2. (Better than nothing! And I always lose in the past!). On Xmas day, I was so happy that we were going to Robinson for shopping as there was sale. And importantly we are bringing the small Chloe as well. But when we reached there, it was not opened yet, and Chloe was sleeping in the pram, and we just walked around first, who knows, when we turned back, there was already a crowd outside the gate. The next moment in my thought was "DIE!Sure there will be unhappiness upon seeing the crowd. And I was right, I always knew after married, Mr don't like to go crowded places with me and shop anymore." Thus, I got this jittery feeling, no matter how I lighten his mood, no use. So ended up, I went to shop for my stuffs alone as the crowd is just too heavy for the pram go through. But anyways, things got better after I bought my stuffs and I just tried to lighten his mood again, and was fine. He even propose to walk around Heeren after our lunch at Mac. Guys also have mood swings Haha. But I think things will eventually changed after married, things guys will do will not do it after they got married. I guess is just SOPs. Luckily, I still have my Twin to go shopping whenever I felt like it. Then we even went IMM to buy a standing fan and then headed home. Evening went to my aunt's place again for a light dinner. Then went to stay over at my mum's place as Fri me and Mr was on leave, as he had a dental appointment, and we thought might be a good idea to go visit some pre schools for Chloe.
We had conflicts again when I didn't clearly find out where the place was at Jurong East, ok is my fault to assume, but couldn't there be a better attitude to sort and talk things out rather than really pushing all the blame to me? Nevertheless, we found the place. Then next we moved on to West Coast MMI, again after the whole entire episode, conflicts again, due to the cost is rather high, so I suggested we could just take on the enrichment courses which is only $150 per month though the classes are not on daily basis but is fine since she is only 18months old. Till she reached Nursery then convert her to full day. I find it a good suggestion, IS ONLY A SUGGESTION, not a DECISION. I dunno why or what I did to make it like I am making a decision which Mr misunderstood and thus conflicts arise. Sometimes, I really felt that humans really hard to communicate especially Mars and Venus. That's why the book came about and I effortly went to buy this book to read so as to improve the communication between us, but I think only doing it on my part won't solve the entire problem cos' IT TAKES 2 HANDS TO CLAP. But I hope both of us can finish up the book and improve for the sake of Chloe and our future. :)
Then on Sat, Mr cleared the store as it was damn messy. The day was just fine. Until it reached evening time, when me and Mr decided to go Jurong Point for shopping, and I was super happy lor.. but after got Chloe to changed, she and her cheeky actions while walking, caused her to fall and knock on the side of the metal edges of the bed frame, which caused a small scratch, and bruised and swollen. She cried a while before I took her attention to something else. So heartpain to see her hurt. Again, somehow I got pinpointed as my fault since I am so-called near her and didn't catch her. How to react instantly when I knew something shocking is going to happen and I just stood stunned there. That's how car accidents happened and when the victim unable to run away from it. Isn't so?? But anyways, we changed our minds just to go IMM for dinner and then back home. Met my aunts and uncle, and my uncle kept saying he too heart pain when see Chloe like that. So ended up, we went to their house to sit a while as my relatives all there to play MJ and my parents too, while Mr went to cut his hair. All of them were shocked when they saw Chloe's face and first question was "AIYO WHY LIKE THAT! GOT SEE DOC OR NOT?!". The more they say, the more heart pain I felt and I even almost teared. :( But she still happily playing with them.
Sun morning again went to IMM for Mac breakfast as Mr wanted to buy a tap to replace the spoilt one. So whole day was at home, playing Wii. And yes, almost everyday playing Wii ever since Mr mod it and burnt games for me to play. So until evening, my parents came to visit me, and out of the blue, Mr just showed me black-faced due to my mum keep nagging to my dad about the food Chloe ate and didnt have proper nutrition as a result, and said I didn't teach my maid well and never instructed her more. Haiz. I also felt irritated but what to do, their first grandchild, so therefore more protection and also cos' Chloe is thin, need to grow more. So ended up, it became my fault literally. Haiz. I really dunno how to make both worlds happy! Am I sure a failure?? or just that we can't see things eye to eye and not able to understand each other deep enough? So many questions went through my mind.. but no one can understand me.. No matter how unhappy at times with his parents, I won't show it or even complained to Mr, cos' I won't want him to be sandwiched in between, and I just have to tell myself, that's what parents are. Eventually, I believed we as parents will ended up like them, or maybe even worst, when Chloe grew up and have her own kids and who knows we will naggy as well. It just goes in a circle. I think.
Mon morning all was well again, just like a nitemare has passed. Mr took MC to bring Chloe to Thomson for X-ray. Lucky all was good, no fracture, no blood clot. Just that bruise will be gone only after 2 weeks which of cos, be in time for CNY. :) We even took off the bed frame to prevent anymore mishaps. :) And now, can only hope tomorrow Mr's company's chalet gathering will be a success and no CONFLICTS.
Hereby, wish everyone a Happy new year and stay happy everyday in the coming year! And I wish we will be tightly bonded even more!
