Monday - a 'Gift' day?

Finally, the day has come for the charity organisation to come collect Renee's bed frame. I had previously packed some stuffed toys(pretty new, abt a yr and she doesn't play with them) but Eileen came and took them away on Saturday, :). Last night, or rather this morning, whilst chatting with Li and Sis on YM, I suddenly recalled about this collection and went to ransack the storeroom for more things to give away, hahaha. It wasn't long before I brought out the infant car seat cum carrier & swing, the detachable foam mats(also didn't really use them, so pretty new too and I've washed them thoroughly before I put them away) and a few more stuffs(new and used).

I was told that the staff will arrive anytime between 1:30pm to 5pm and as like the previous time, they came at ard 1:30pm and saved me the 'wait'. However, when Renee saw the story books that I've put in last minute, she embarrassed me by trying to grab them all back from the bags, hahaha.


Found 2 big 'Mothercare' plastic carriers in the store and I decided to cut them up into 4 pcs and got Renee to help pasting them into 'mats' for our future trips to the beach, lolz

Earlier, I had forgotten that daddy's taken my car to his golf game, so I arranged with Lyn to go downtown if the collection's early. After some ding dong here and there, we decided that Sis and her will go do their stuffs and if daddy could come back early, I'll meet them at Scotts DFS. However, even though daddy came back 10mins before 5pm, he was caught up with some work(he didn't tell me that he'd hv to settle some work first and had arranged to meet them ard 5:30pm!), and so, with the unforeseen delay, we didn't get to meet up 'cos 1stly, Sis wasn't sure as to where to park and 2ndly, they were afraid that we'll be further delayed by the traffic jam and they'd have to wait for us til 6:30pm. Nevermind, shall see if we'll get to go there another day, this daddy ar(ya ya, he said work comes first, but he cld have told me so and I won't tell them to meet us, haiz...). However, when I changed back to my home clothes and began to undress Renee, she cried and cried soooo pathetically. She had been waiting to go out lor, so I decided to change back and take her to Compass Point, since I've already prepared her dinner anyway. Daddy however, upon learning that the meet-up's postponed, went to sleep!

Anyway, quite a fruitful trip down to the mall, managed to get her the toy guitar and did a quick last minute christmas shopping after dinner.

Came home at around 9pm but I only get to finally settle down now...

Sooo tired but I guess I've had too much 'rushing' activity this evening, and also my back hurts badly, can't sleep...
