it's official
...i've put on weight. 2kg in 2 months! can't believe it myself. now i know how a customer's son-in-law put on 10kg in the 5 months of married life - from eating her cooking.
...i can now put on weight easily. does this come with age?
my daughter's shopping blog coming up soon....a sneak preview. :)

blissful few days...
the past few days have been great for me. the source of negative energy was away. :)) got a call from nanyang primary that they will like to continue with their jewellery making sessions. one group of beginners and the earlier group will like to continue to advance. can't wait to start with them. the teachers are really fun people to be with.
the next event i will be looking forward to is NEXT SATURDAY...another full day craft session. someone booked the function room in her condo. there should be about 8 or 10 of us. hehe...can't wait.
finishing another knitwear. that's another item to strike off my list. so happy.
all these happy things happening and i realised that i may have put on some weight! oh no. my clothes are back to the same fit as when i was working. oh no oh no...how? start watching what i eat and continue with the training. oh yes, i completed 5km of the ShapeRun! what an achievement considering that i was all exhausted after abt 1km during the first training. it is just so amazing. the progress in just 10 sessions of training in 5 weeks. shows just how much we can achieve once we put our mind to it. haha...i shall put my mind to getting fit again i.e. losing the fats. going to weigh myself in the office tomorrow. this is going to be interesting.
that's all folks, for now.

fruits of a few nights of labour
no sleep, working through the night.
that's my elder girl for the last few days... working in the night and sleeping in the day. that was just what i did when i was doing my first big cross-stitch piece. just kept going until about 4am or 5am. the difference? i had to go to work the next day. somehow, still managed. that's passion. when you're enjoying what you're doing, nothing else matters. need lots of willpower to stop and rest.
one of those she did. simple and nice.

check out the rest in the shopping gallery album under "Stefanie".

i've got a well-known son!!
found this out today...when i went back to the school after dropping him off. why? because my handphone was in his pocket and i didn't take it back from him. all the prefects and traffic controllers know who he is! he's either popular or un-popular. both are just as well known.
had a quiet, cosy lunch time yesterday and today. it was good. finished 4 outstanding projects and intend to tick off some more off my list after this weekend. hopefully can finish all the simple requests by this weekend and start on the bigger projects one at a time.
while some projects are straight forward and some are just "follow instructions" types, there are also the few that need lots of thinking and inspiration. those in the last category need more time but it will be the most satisfying. let me tick off those in the first and second categories first.
my elder girl has been doing a lot of beading the last 2 days. did some really nice pieces. let me get my hands on the camera and i have so many so many photos to take.
will be back soon.

lost...and found
ever felt like you're losing control? don't know what to do? don't know what's happening?
that was me since my last entry. i'll log in and don't know what to say. then i remembered what a good friend said to me...don't try to do too many things at a time. took a step back and started organising again. it was good as i finally got down to doing some of the things in a long to-do list. feels good to be back on track.
to everyone, it is important not to lose track of yourself. make time for things important to you.
i'm just glad to be found again. :) ...and i've started designing again. :)) now can start nagging at jeremy again. :))) haha....so much fun to see his reaction.
anyway, will take some more photos and post soon.
