Sales and sales

We were both out the whole afternoon yesterday! Well, at least Renee got to nap which I didn't hv the luxury to... :(
Daddy finally met up with us after 6pm and we went to the Robinsons closed-door members' sales after our dinner at Noodle Place. The congee daddy had was delicious but our dear Renee just didn't fancy it, haiz...
I had thought we could catch some really good buys but it turned out that it wasn't one of the rare 'great robinsons sales' and the things that I needed are all out of stock! Now I've to go back on non-sales day to try my luck again arrgghh.
However, we got this 'Dora' magnetic puzzle(below pic) for Renee. There were also other educational puzzles which are similar to what I've ordered from USA earlier via some online sprees(only just abt to arrive!). Had these been available in Singapore earlier, I would have not joined the sprees and get them here/now especially when these, with the 'Dora' and friends character imprint would certainly entice her or even any kid alot more).

Today, I went to Tangs members sales alone(same 2 days of sales as Robinsons!) and managed to get some of the stuffs that I needed(why the things that I need all ran out of 'supply' at the same timing?) but the main items that I didn't get at Rob, remain unavailable at Tangs or Takashimaya Dept Store :(

Rushed to pick Renee up from school and as I've decided not to request SingPost for another re-delivery of my parcel, I took her for her favourite cup corn and went to SengKang hub to collect it. Geez, it was about to rain when we were crossing over to the hub and after collecting the parcel, I thought to perhaps 'try my luck' to dash for home with the LRT - can't catch a cab 'cos tooo many stuffs and with a child sleeping on the stroller? -tough, arrrghhh.
However, luck wasn't with me hahaha, it started to pour when the LRT train got to the next station. At 'our' station, I had to cover sleeping Renee with her new raincoat(instead of her wearing it lolz) and made a 1/2 walk, 1/2 run dash to the cluster of blocks. Renee woke up and started to rant about going home! I told her sternly not to fuss as it's raining and I'm trying with difficulty to rush 'us' over... she co-operated :D *phew*.
Midway, the rain got alot heavier and we were stucked...Waited for a few minutes and decided to make another dash - so she can rest at home and there I was, one hand holding the umbrella and the other trying to push the stroller with our PRINCESS and the shopping bags. What made it worse was the 'curvy' path that I had to go thru! I guess it would have been quite a funny sight to anyone watching, to see me juggling or rather, STRUGGLING especially when I even had to 'clamp' the umbrella with my head and neck whilst crossing the 'currrvvy' path in order to steady the stroller and keep it going in one direction hahahahaha....
Geez, it was a day I seriously, seriously wished that I was 'brave' enough to drive!

Daddy's working late again tonight and Renee, having only a short nap, is now still awake... if she doesnt go to bed soon, I'll have to let her wake up abit later tmrw morning.

*Shan't put up the items I've bought these 2 days, else I'll be accused of having too many shoppings heeeee
