Yesterday...I suddenly thought of Stella. And then I was damn pissed off at everything that has happened between us. Dad had asked me if we were back on talking terms, & no we are not. I don't know if we will ever, but I’ve got a lot on my plate at the moment - not gonna worry bout her. Dad thinks we are crazy. Sigh. Not me!
Well...I just came back from a lovely wedding dinner...very tired but can't sleep. Sometimes I just feel so helpless & drained out. I can't sleep when I'm exhausted, because I have to wait til Kate does. & I can't bathe or do anything til she sleeps. So I wait an hour or so for her to fall asleep, then go bathe, & pack or whatever. It's so tiring...I wished I could manage my time a little better. Speaking of which, I guess I also need to handle my shopping craves too. I wanted this Oakley backpack, to bring Kate's stuff along & all. I already have a diaper backpack, but its heavy & overpriced & loud. So I'm gonna sell that. But Oakley bags are quite pricey too. So I bought a cheap one today, rugged & big! And I was very happy with my buy til hubs told me Oakley having 50% discount on some bags now...& I feel like buying again! Sigh... I must control. I keep telling myself I don't need another bag/pair of shoes/whatever it is that I catch a fancy to. But I always catch a fancy to everything I see & its so hard to control myself! I always think, when I see something, that it goes so well with this & that & the colour is so pretty & blah blah blah. Must stop. I always tell myself & hubs "I gotta have that!" Then I start to feel abit bad after buying, especially the expensive things...like the amount I spent on the item could have fed a family for how long etc...I even thought to myself; if everytime I wanna buy something, I put aside the money for charity instead, imagine how much that would help the needy!

You can buy some biscuits, cereals, rice, halal canned food, adult or children diapers or find out what are the wish list or food list of the needy & donate accordingly. For the food or grocery items that you wanna donate, you can find out where the gift boxes are, & then you can go to that particular NTUC & shop for the items & donate at the gift box straight away, convenient right? Mom & I saw the gift box at Jurong Point today so we bought some stuff. I think its nice to know I helped someone instead of always just shopping for my wants.
