I was sitting on the bed this afternoon combing my hair while Arianna was on the floor in front of our huge mirror when I realised that my sidetable was a little dusty and I reminded myself that I would have to do a little dusting today.
I haven’t done it yet but I did manage to vacumn the unit but it left Arianna very upset and cranky that I had the vacumn on. Normally she is ok with it, not sure why she wasn’t happy today. Anyway, while I was combing my hair and thinking of dusting, I was simultenously thinking that I should ask Ted to buy me this GoDuster thingamajig as a present and save him the headache of thinking what to get me come my birthday. After all, we are both allergic to dust and it would be great if we could get it and ‘make dusting fun’ since for the life of me, I hate dusting. I just hate housework in a nutshell la. Also I could also easily think up another household item I could use to make life easier for me that would do for a Christmas pressie when all of a sudden it hit me.
I’ve lost my spontenous ability to want things that I don’t need - at least a huge chunk of it anyway.
At this point in my life, I no longer look forward to the newest CDs or DVDs on the rack. I no longer feel the need to change my handphone every 6 months. I no longer have the desire to go on shopping sprees instead I find myself wanting to buy household items. And it’s amazing how I now make a beeline to the childrens section instead of checking out some nice stuff for myself. :shock: I can’t even believe I’m saying it myself!!
I’m at the point where I’m looking forward to doing up my kitchen and getting a new stove. I’m excited about the new set of kitchen knives I just bought online which I should not have since what I actually wanted was a ‘no need to sharpen for the rest of your life set’ but I was too hasty and made a big boo-boo. Thankfully, it’s not that painful because it was my own money from all those sponsored posts. I was over the moon when Ted came back with a clothes rack for Christmas, which was part of my pressie. And I was just so happy when Ted bought some clothesline to fix on my balcony because this means that I don’t have to go downstairs to use the general clothesline outside! 
What is happening to me??? 
Apparently I’ve left the realms of singlehood and gone straight into motherhood since I didn’t really have much time as a married partner and these are the things which makes most mommys happy. At least it makes my life easier and when life is easier, then I am happy. Since I have my birthday present all figured out, I better work on my Christmas present and since we already have a BBQ set which my MIL gave Ted for his birthday, I might have to settle for a nice coffee table to put on our balcony and complete the outdoor look. Or maybe I should ask for a couple of hanging plants? Nah….I think I’ll get Ted to fix more hooks up so I can have more decor in the house.
Omg….I’m just going over the top aren’t I? I think I should slow down….I dun wanna get too old, too fast!!
