My new pair of wide shoes for women which I bought last week is very comfortable. I anticipated I’d be doing a lot of walking in the holidays and I needed something more comfortable. And stable too, coz Edward will want me to carry him whenever he’s tired or just too plain lazy to walk. My new pair of shoes is flat with generous amount of padding making it very soft and comfortable. And it is slightly wider than usual which gives my feet a lot of wiggle room. I’m really glad I bought it for the holidays. It has prevented a few blisters and sore foot.

My shades got smashed today when Edward stomped on it. He was being very playful in the car, and somehow without me realising, he got hold of my shades were on the dashboard. The shades ended up on the car seat and I only realise it when Edward was jumping and I hear something cracked. Ray Bans aren’t exactly cheap so needless to say I was absolutely furious. I scolded him and warned him not to fool around in the car anymore. And don’t ever dare to lay his hands on my glasses anymore. Which I’m sure have fallen on deaf ears.

My sister-in-law called this morning jumping with joy. She had just won the grand prize of her annual dinner’s lucky draw – a 42′ LCD TV! Earlier in the month all company staff enjoyed an all expense paid company trip to Maldives. We talked for about half and hour. She seems to be very happy with her new boss who treats her staff really well. Courteous and respectful to her staff. And pretty generous with work allowances and gifts for her office staff. I’m glad she’s working happily in the company. Why didn’t I get good bosses when I was working.

Edward got himself another good bout of scolding tonight. Recently he developed a habit of taking a small toy when going out. He would hold it in his hands wherever he walk. That’s fine except that he is also very forgetful. Whenever something gets his attention, he’d drop his toy and forget about it. We have lost toy watches, toy cars and this evening, his zombie yoyo. I’ve scolded him many times and forbid him to take any toys along outings but gave in because he’d never stop wailing. This is my last straw. No matter how bad his tantrum is, I will make sure his toys stay at home from now on.

One of our local supermarket and grocer installed one of the best barcode scanner I’ve ever seen. Better than even ones found at Tesco and other hypermarkets. It is able to scan a barcode more than a feet away. Edward has a habit of taking stuff from our trolley and scan it just for the fun of it. I had to guide his hands to put the product as close as possible to barcode scanners. But with this particular barcode scanner, he is beeping away easily from the trolley nearly a feet away. And he doesn’t even have to put the barcode directly under the scanner. The range it can pick up a barcode is pretty impressive.

Someone asked me whether sending an e-card and flowers online lack sincerity. Well here’s what I think. Sending e-cards will never be as sincere or personal as sending traditional greeting cards. That’s just what I feel. Not everything we do in real life can leverage on the convenience of doing it online. Sending flowers though, is different IMO. Most of us already do this without lifting a finger. We simply ring up a florist, order a dozen flowers of our choice and have it delivered to someone, somewhere. So using the web to do the same thing, that is to send flowers online, won’t make it less sincere. If I were her, I’d take the time to shop for a greeting card and send it personally. The flowers can be sent from an online florist.

I have three jackets in my closet but my absolute favourite jacket by far is the Marmot women’s “Metro Coat”, in turtle dove colour. That’s sort of like creamy white in common vocabulary. What I like most about it is the extra length, nearly down to my knees. The main zip is cleanly concealed, and so are the pockets, giving it a minimalistic exterior. The jacket clinches my waist to further enhance it’s long slimming cut. Simply put, it looks elegant, stylish and classy. It is not a heavy jacket and probably won’t be warm enough for really cold winters. But it really suits me well because it’s lite weight and not bulky. And I don’t think I’ll be anywhere near subzero temperatures.

The new brewer my husband bought last week is pretty good and saves me a great deal of effort and time to brew cups of coffee every morning. Bunn is a well known brand of commercial brewer for restaurants and cafes. Ours is a home version, a much smaller machine compared to their commercial counterparts but more than enough to brew up to 10 cups of coffee in a short time. We use our Bunn coffeemaker to make at most two cups of coffee. It’s still very new and I’ve just starting to learn how to use it. My husband and I are experimenting with various brewing techniques and coffee beans. But so far, we’re quite impressed with our new coffee maker.
