conversations with the husband #1

April 9, 2013 / 55 Comments

am starting this series of “conversations with the husband” to jot down the funny snippets of conversations between the husband and me. I find some of the conversations that we have totally wacky, and some times, just plain irritating. should be fun noting them down.

[was sharing with husb on a girlfriend who had to hint very very hard for the bf to give her a bouquet of flowers]

c: what is it that guys dont get about sending flowers to their girlfriends? (actually indirectly directing the message to husb as well)
d: hmmm… [silence]
c: aiyah, i know already. next time i don’t bother hinting. i should just go select my bouquet of flowers and then enter your credit card details. so much easier, and confirm the bouquet i will like!
d: wah! that’s daylight robbery.
c: no what. it saves you all the trouble you know? and you will always have a happy wife. oh, mother’s day is coming you know? hee hee hee!
d: Ooooi!!!! you go send yourself a bouquet with the money from your sons’ bank accounts. dont touch my credit card. you are THEIR mother, not mine!

guys: you know what? a flower or a bouquet of flowers will make a girl’s day regardless of whether she likes the flowers a not.. because its the thought of giving or the surprise element that makes someone’s day. it’s not about the money. but of cos, the bigger the bouquet, the wider the smile? LOL.

hopefully, someday, the husband gets it it on the flower bit. and as for mother’s day, i also hope he realises that i bore him 2 sons and went through 18 months of discomfort and intense pain and it was HE who made me a mother.. so all the more i deserve a gift from him… no?

besides, mother’s day always come before father’s day… so i dont really see how he is going to lose out.

Hi there! Thanks for popping by. I'm Cherie, a ftwm (full-time working mum) to 3 lovely kids (2 boys & a princess) and my motto in life is to BE HAPPY. Sure, life isn't all that smooth but it's the mentality that counts, no? This blog documents my life. Or rather, snippets of my life that has passed me by. I love capturing life memories in the blog and being able to read back and laugh at myself (or anyone). I love to eat (A LOT), travel and paint my own nails so the blog is mostly about that. Is that considered lifestyle? Of cos, the family is also very much an integral part of me so there would be loads of memories about the husband and my kids - Jerry (9yo), Jerome (7yo) and Leia (2.5yo) and everyone else that's close to me. I like documenting the kids' milestones, their growing up years, their achievements (and sometimes, mine), and my struggles and battles with motherhood. It sure ain't easy. I love seeking out good food and travelling, is trigger-happy, love new gadgets, love exploring new places and strives to live life to the fullest. I aspire to travel the world as much as I can, to soak in the different sights across the various continents and visit all the Disneylands in the world (almost there!). Have fun reading and do drop me a comment to say hi! Love, Cherie Lim Find me on Instagram.
