I've been married for 8 years, have 4 kids and yes..marriage is no bed of roses. Kids test our patience CONSTANTLY! I've weeped, wailed, thought "oohh I can't do this"..but when the sea is calm again I seem to be able to just brush those things away..<BR/><BR/>Oh I dont think that washing keropok is strange..like pugly's mom, I too wash eggs (before placing them in the fridge), buang tulang, taik ikan bilis..semuanya my mom jugak yg ajar :)<BR/> <BR/>When my kids are grown ups, I DO hope that they'll remember all the small small things that I do or teach them..Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12337655927219085866noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9776295.post-34058830726485810232008-12-11T11:52:00.000+00:002008-12-11T11:52:00.000+00:00Ms Hamid, you said it!

Malu, kan? I do not believe that spouses should be that cruel and unaccomodating. It is a two way thing. And when we were young, everything is a learning curve. We learn all the time. Everyone, and no point in pointing fingers and calling names and apportioning blames. Who are we to be blameless and with no blemishes. Tapi ramai orang yang pandai berkhutbah! Kita terima dengan ucap Alhamdulillah and the best to you too.

Not forgetting ABBA's too. Must haves for my karaoke sessions :)<BR/><BR/>Yesterday was what bring me to what I am now, perhaps better n wiser. I'm just grateful that Allah lets me live today to express love to those I may have said less or none before, learn past mistakes and correct them, gain more rezki, listening to my own sayang mama's stories, enjoy what others have too n dont have, and still have opportunity to ask for more. Alhamdulillah.<BR/><BR/>While u'r so lucky to get away with wet keropok and all, I do know of people whose other half threw her sincere isteri-mithali currypuffs to the floor for making the pastry too soft, saying @#$%*@^%# to her for preparing Maggi not exactly the 'way' he wanted, etc.<BR/>Nope, not making up.

In the book, he still ran into people he knew and ended up marrying the same woman he married the first time.

It was the days long before we could even imagine what the Internet would bring.<BR/><BR/>Deep Purple "Machine Head", "Fireball"... That Led Zeppelin album with the rustic picture of an old man with firewood on his back... Pink Floyd, which was to be my most favourite group of all time from 1978; "Dark Side of the Moon", "Wish You Were Here"... Uriah Heep, Manfred Mann Earth Band, Grand Funk Railroad...<BR/><BR/>Yes, and the albums for "wimps and sissies" too, heheh - David Cassidy (Yuck! My elder sister likes him), Osmonds (Uwerkkk!), Jackson Five, Bread, Englebert Humperdinck (sp?)... But these were joyful places to be at; and I like them as I do bookshops (not many of these in Alor Star then) <BR/><BR/>BTW can you send me your email address please?
