with the year-end closing and upcoming system upgrade (UAT Testing!!), i've been fighting with fire for the 8-9 hours i am in office every working day!
and sometimes, i still need to log in at night to clear some of the never-ending emails... zzzz.
so, how to keep the spirits up?
1) i make it a point to go off by 630pm so that i can spend time with the boys in the evenings. if needed, i'll log in from home after they sleep. but only for 1-2 hrs at most, if not time with the husband will be compromised.
2) spending time with hubbi catching serials! yes! we are currently watching sherlock every mon, Grimm every tue, walking dead S2 for wed/thurs and 血腥草莓 every fri. LOL.
3) catching up with friends! a session at least once a week with different peeps recharges me one way or another.
so far, housewarming with my ex-coll 2 weeks back, gathering at my house with girls last sunday and tanny's bday dinner with the peeps this friday have made me look forward to the end of the dreary long work week. :)
4) of cos, shopping always help. :P
happy stuff for the week!
the boys wearing germany jersey like their papa.
as usual, clear photo by me of them and blurry photo by hubbi of us.
zzzzz.
YR has yet to master doing the victory sign, hence the index-pointing pose only. LOL.
some outfits for the week:
left: top from gg5, zara jeans
(this pair of jeans just dyed my towels and home tees pink in the wash today. @_@)
middle: both top and skirt from zara (from the trip and glad that these are not on sale here.:P)
right: gg5 top, pants from wicket laundry (@ haji lane)
i like separates simply because you can mix and match in countless combis.
but of cos, dresses are god-send on busy/tired mornings when you are just too tired/cant be bothered to co-ordinate your outfits.
i think its time to invest in dresses more. for im getting more and more tired in the mornings as i age....
im sure i mentioned this before but i just want to repeat here again:
if possible, try to buy stuff only when they are on sale.
esp. given singapore context where sales recurs on a frequent basis!
even if its just an one-off 20% on national day (teehee, can you guess which brand is this?), it beats getting the original price for some brands.
now that GSS is at its tail-spin, the prices are all going ridiculously low.
im glad to get my size for these:
1) an A/X top going at 60% off! though the discounted price is still steep for me but i considered it a good buy for the design and quality.
2) a pedder red pair of shoes. in fact, most of my pedder red shoes are brought during the sale (fyi, twice a year. :)).
$199 to $74!
im not sure which is crazier - the original price or the discount. @_@
ok, time to go back to the couch to catch the last episode of walking dead S2 with the husband!
i wonder what we will be chasing next and i cant wait for walking dead S3 too even though zombies is really my worst nightmare...........
