Paktor-ing all over again

Lovely weather today! Perfect for walks with your loved ones and that was precisely what I did with my husband before iIstart work in Aug.

We started the day after we dropped our little girl at school and we took a bus to the east side - bus no 32. We weren't sure exactly where we are heading to but we wanted to find a nice old feel coffee shop to have our morning cuppa.

As the bus meanders along tg katong road, we thought it is the right place to alight so we did. We saw some really lovely houses and we started on our favorite past time, ie, speaking as if we own one of the houses. I told my husband our hobby got to stop because it is a sin to covet....but we really wish we have enough money to live in a landed property in Singapore, which of course means that you got to be at least a millionaire. Then I started wondering if I will be able to make my first millions if I save half of my salary every month with my new job and using those money to invest. Is it achievable in 5 yrs time? Only GOd knows. My hubby then digged at me saying that all I will invest in will be Fendi and Coach bags...hahahahah...I guess he's right in a way(yup, that's how bad my coveteousness is).

We walked from tg katong road to marine parade and back to joo jiat. I think we covered at least 4kms and my feet are absolutely sore from all that walking! I better lose some weight but come to think of it, I don't think I will lose any weight judging from the way I eat. Just last nite I washed down two hump chin bang just before i went to bed while watching Ian Wright on DTL in Bolivia...and at a ripe old age of 36, I should be thankful that I am not jibbling my spare bits. hahaha

As i reflect on the time spent with my husband today, I think I am really going to miss my domestic bliss. I don't even know if I can pick up speed and battle the battles when I start work. just the thought of meetings, budgets, plans are enough to give the jitters even though I have been doing this for the past 10+ years. God pls be with me.
