Back in action

I have not been actively posting for the past 1.5years.
Many things have changed
1. Bought a house in Jan 13
2. Moved in the My Home in May13. Got two of the rooms rented out.
3. My eldest sister whole family came back to Singapore for half a year.
(That bond the whole family)
4. Found my Mr Right. 
5. Milo and I Moved in with him






What's next?
We are getting married soon. 
Got our pre-wedding photos taken.

What's important is not the wedding. It's the challenges after that.
We will be having a private event. That makes our life even simpler. We plan to go for a trip to complete the wedding.

What about grooming?
I have reduced my grooming sections as my mum's place is always crowded with children.
Cutting down the grooming to 2 Sundays of a month. Hopefully I will be able to take in more sections soon.
I am planning for some promotion for summer. Knowing it's extremely hot in the coming months, I am adding on spa treatment for the dogs. 50% off spa treatment for every full groom done.
The spa treatment will help to improve skin condition of the dog and making the coat smooth and shiny after that.

Hows the ending?

It’s the last quarter of the year. How many of your objectives met so far?
It was a fantastic year for me. Few weeks back I was in the States with my mum. Visiting my sister and her family. She was there for 6 years and no one from Singapore had visited her.
My mum was there to fulfill her mother’s role. To help with her confinement for her 2nd baby; Wei. We had a great time with the family.

I have taken some pictures during my day tour at the eastern of United States. It was quite a fruitful trip. Get to experience things that New Yorkers do. They really dress up. Hope everything is fine after the Sandy Attack.

GROUND ZERO

               THIS IS WHERE OBAMA CONTINUE TO STAY FOR THE NEXT 4 YRS

NIGARA FALL (BEST OF THE BEST)

How lucky are those who are able to travel with the furry kids. I believe you have seen in the TV drama showing the furry kids travelling with the family.

Unlike Singapore, we can probably bring them to Sentosa or Pula Ubin. Unless you pay the air ticket and have to store them in the cabin. For some countries you have to put them to quarantine for a month when you return to Singapore. In the states you can see those owner walking the dog to park, restaurants and even shopping center. I was in a domestic flight from Chicago to Nashville and this was what I saw..

He is really a nice pup. Not a single bark from him. Siting quietly in the baggage.

I have just changed my full time job after 5 years. I have started to get used to taking bus and train to town. In the past jobs, I just need to board the company transport and sleep all the way. I like my current office. See the wonderful views that I have in my new office. The office is new (5 weeks old), my colleagues are new. What I like most; I can attend yoga class early in the morning before going to work. Which mean I have to wake up as early as 5.15am and attend the 1st yoga class.

 The reception area. My office is located in the 19th floor.

My seat can see Garden by the Bay
There are so many changes in 2012 and I am enjoying it.

Hopefully I can make one more big fulfillment before the year end. Lets see!! Will keep you update again.
Btw have you stopped sending your furry kid for grooming? Don’t forget ya.. they need to be pamper too. Oh ya. If you have Starhub cable, there is one channel; showing- dog whisperer every Saturday. Very informative. Must Watch! Enjoy the balance 2012.

Father's Day

We have a difference father's day this year. Instead of dinning at crowded and expensive restaurant, we have pot luck and we cook specially for our father. Can sense he is quite happy gathering with all the kids and grandchildren. Everyone making an effort to cook and have dinner together.
Hope you have a great Father's day. Happy Daddy's Day to You!








Frustration at work

What do you do when you feel frustrated?

I will mediate. All thanks to yoga.
When I get upset at work, I will "nam" (complain) all day long. Complaining to my colleague and friend. I think that's women. But I will get over after I knock after from work. That's something good about me I don't bring my work home and tomorrow everything will be erased.
Try deep breathing in and out and keep yourself out from meetings, phone calls, visitors and most importantly your BOSS.

Peace


School Holiday

How was the school holiday so far? If you are a parent you must be headache what can your kids do during the school break? Beside travelling oversea for the break, you can explore some of the places in Singapore. Not forgetting our furry kids, they will be happy to join you too.
1. Science Center, I have seen my friends posting some of her photos taken at Science Center. Its really cool now (Plus Its Free Parking). With the new shopping Center (JCube) around the corner you can check out the new skating ring and movie theater.
2. Universal Studio (USS), if you are really a fan of those rides and world. Get an annual pass. Kids love rides and cartoon characters. You can spend the whole day having Fun, Fun and Fun. Else get down to the nearby beach and cafe at Sentosa. Go for a swim with the dogs and get some vitamin E. But remember to put enough sun block. The sun is killing nowadays.
3. Go Fly Kite, at the Marina Barrage or West Coast Park. Its getting into trend again.
4. Night Safari, Hate the heat and sun during the day time? Then spend some time with the animals under the star.
5. GSS - Great Singapore Sale is here again. Mango, Zara, Gap... getting new bags, shoes or clothing. Go grab it now.
6. Go for the Green - Hort park is a nice place for a walk and if you really feel its too distance for you, try Labrador park. Its a quiet and nice place to walk your pets with the family. Bring some food and drink for a picnic. Nobody is stopping you.
7. Movie - Madagascar III is here. What are you waiting for? Too kiddy? How about Snow White and the huntsman?
8. Painting - By the Number. I have just finished a 40 x 50cm painting. I felt fulfilled and enjoyed the painting process. My friend bought for her kids and they do like it too.

I have brought my niece out for a movie and lunch. I think she is still too young to enjoyed the show. This is the first movie and I want her to remember its yi yi that bring her to her first movie.
