jenn, now u not giving her $$ ah? even though my MIL working but my hb still gives lor cos we staying at her place...... consider as giving her our share of the usage of utilities...... maybe i should request hb to give a bit more so that i can on air-con before 10 hor....
 
back frm lunch..

for my pama, my pa is the only breadwinner for the past 30yrs so thanks to my thrifty ma who helped him scrimp and save if not oso all spend one.. so lucky my pa still hv savings tho he plan to retire in 2yrs time.. i give my ma $300 every mth but i duno wat she do wif the $$ la haha..

for my ILs, my MIL is retired teacher so she has her pension but u all know how she takes EXTRA care of my SIL and family lah.. anw.......

my FIL is still working but next yr retiring for good but they hv savings so hopefully not too taxing on them.. i give my MIL $200+ every mth..
 
caitlyn- ur hb gv his parents the same amt u gv to urs? my hb says tat i am givin too much but i feel i shd lor cos they reali need my $ unlike his, gv as a token only.
 
daphne - good idea!! tell ur hb to give her more than say it's for air con bill! keke..

janf - i'm sure ur ma saves it up for u! hee.. usu e thrifty type will do tt.. =) retired teacher dun have to worry.. coz all medical bills will be paid for.. for both her n spouse.. so nxt time if *choy* anything, u n hb wun hv to worry.. =)
 
daphne - oways wanted to ask u so wat if u on aircon b4 10??!?! she cant be banging at ur door and ask u to off wat! huff

for me, i usually on at 9 then my timer is set to off at 2am..
 
talkin abt aircon, we hv decided to get one for our room liao! haha... hb buey tahan alrdy since weather sooo hot nwadays. he says enough is enough! haha
 
ting - i always forget wat my hb gives his parents.. but i think it's $500.. can't remember how he separates out to them.. then if we go out eat, or happen to go grocery shopping, he pays for them lor.. his side at e moment, more in need of e money mah.. last time, he set aside 500 a mth for his bro's skl fees, but coz we bot hse last year, we cldn't continue tt lor.. but his bro owes him abt 8-9k lor..
 
Janf,
Yap, cos we are not staying with my ILs and my MIL said dun need to give her $$, so my hb didnt give her..

Only i gave my mum $300 per mth, and dad $100 as he is working...
 
Ting,
ha ha, finally you are getting rid of that old air con ???? Get an non-inverter if you are only installing one set.

How abt ur tenant's room ? U going to change the aircon for him too ?
 
Cotton,
If u want some lousy quality which u can use at home, can get from IKEA, is 12pcs for $5.90, quite cheap lor...

Caitlyn,
Can i come to ur house, maybe on thurs ??? As for berry's item , is it BIG huh...cos u know my car small small only.. i dun mind to get it for her, i can temporary put @ my pama plc... so tt when she is back from BBK, she can pick up from me.
 
janf, i dunno what she will say lor but i remember once (way before i preggie lah), i on the air-con at 9.58pm and she happen to reach home just exactly at 10pm and then she complained to my hb that i on the air-con so early lor.... but i told hb i only on 2 mins earlier leh.... then that time i can see that hb is sandwiched between both of us lor so now i just turn on the fan before 10pm and let hb see my black face lor.... but usually if i know that she is not coming home early cos hb will call to ask her wat time she back, then i'll on around 9 lor.... but hb got say nvm, just on but then i don't want him to be caught in between again lor....
 
caitlyn - thank god tat my MIL chose the option to hv all medical bills paid for coz she really max out all the way lor!! she luvs going to SGH and polyclinics for chkups one! every mth, qtr, 1/2yrly and yrly she sure got numerous chkups.. u name it she has it.. wat heart, legs, hands chkups etc.. head to toe all bao ga liao.. but heng she took this option if not medical bills really on the rise.. her other teacher frens chose the increment in pay tat time and now took pension, all gone coz all go to see doc.. but my FIL not covered under her CSC card leh..?

actually my pa got give my ma $800 for hsehold allowance every mth but wif me not at home and my sis oways working late, dun tink she cooks much now.. so i tink she got help to save part of the $800 for my pa.. anw, i told her the $300 i give her, juz go buy thgs or eat wateva she wans if not enuff let me know but she oways say enuff enuff.. coz i know her pattern one, being a hsewife for 30yrs she will tink tink tink b4 spending.. juz wan her to enjoy life now..
 
caitlyn- i try my best to help my parents whenever i can, like say pay 1st for the utitilies or home phone thn my mum wil pay me end of the mth or offset frm wat i gv her. so she alwz say like nvr reali 'see' the money i givin her!

jenn- tat one long time ago can throw liao! haha... but it's stil there. hb stil say see if can be repaired anot but i tink no use, might as well get new one. he wana install for livin rm too! i say he siao! nt cheap lor!
 
daphne - maybe ask ur hb to ask his mum whether can relaz e 10pm rule now tt u preggie.. think she'll understand lah.. as for sms-ing when i have contraction.. see whether at tt time, i can still remember my own name lah hor! haha

janf - is it? i thot spouse will be covered.. but good for u tt both sides more or less settled.. u n hb can rest easy.. hb n i were saying we must make sure we settle our finances properly so wun be a burden to our kids.. but i fig nxt time, kids also wun 'yang' us one lor.. not like now.. some more his parents hv e yang er fang lao mentality..
 
jenn- the aircon is our tenant's rm is wrkg well. last time my hb can go to tat room to slp when weather too hot but now cant liao! so hor he cannot take it liao.... hehe
 
Daphne,
haha...then can imagine ur poor hb cover himself with blankets from head till leg.haha.
but i cant sleep with aircon on whole nite leh..the next day,my skin veri dry n itchy.
so now,i will on aircon from 8pm till the time i want to sleep then off.at least the air still cool cool ..
 
caitlyn, actually hor i told hb forget it, i can live with the 10pm rule cos only mon i will be at his home before 10. usually tues and thurs if i'm not working late, i'll be at my mum's place till 9 plus then go home so just nice.... then on fri, i usually play mj at my mum's place or friend's place so still ok. weekends i'll be at my mum's so again ok. so i rather save $$ for our future nest.
 
cottoncandy, for me i must have aircon till i wake up else i'll be in sweat liao.... for hb, last time he sleep topless but now wtih a t-shirt and blanket over him lor..... haha....
 
Ting,
hmm, usually a good aircon in living hall cost abt $800 - $1000... if u intend to stay long in tt house, why not install ??? kee kee, cos u will get to enjoy the cool air con when is really hot....
 
no leh caitlyn - my FIL still sees his co doc for minor cough and flu.. its more like my MIL whos more health prone.. not sure if i told u all she juz went for the sleeping test coz she chokes in the nite while sleeping so decided to go hospital walk walk chitchat wif docs.. she stay one nite in SGH, cost her 300bucks!, but its fully paid for lah so she very hapi abt it.. haha. we oways tell her hospital is her 2nd home and she oso agree..! my FIL has insurance coverage so me and hub not too worried.. more like my ma doesnt hv a single policy coz she has the mentality tat buy insurance is a taboo thg?!? anw, my pa got sufficient medisave so hope my pama will live to a ripe old age..

i oso agree next time we muz settle finances properly.. my hub is a firm believer of insurance whereas im not altho i wrk in an insurance co?!? haha contradicting ya.. but my hub is a part-time insurance agent so muz believe in wat he preached bah.. for me, i dun even rem wat policies i hv haha. juz buy for the sake of buying..
 
janf, once u have kids, insurance is a must..... in case anything happen to either you or your hb, then your children got the $$ to fall back on....
 
jenn- ex ah! wil c how lo.. we only intend to stay in the hse for 5 yrs niah, tats y din reali do up nicely. but hor say only lah, 5 yrs later maybe so used to it liao, dun wan to move! haha

janf- my parents got no insurance coverage too! reali scary when i tink of it, no savings, no ins. oh ur hb is p/t ins agent! u got buy frm him anot? hehe
 
cottoncandy, u got buy the cloth that mrs wong recommended? the one meant for bb to use when eating, or for washing the hair or when lying down? the one that got 7 pcs and can throw after a month? i think that can be used during the first 2 mths cos i doubt can use bib then yet leh....
 
yup daphne, i agree wif u.. once hv kids, insurance is a muz..

tell u all a sad case.. tat day my hub's call agent recd a call in his ctr and this teen who juz turned rightful age said he wana brk the policy tat his pama bot for him when he was young. he said hes the beneficiary and oredi reached legal age. so the call agent asked him has he seek his pama's advise, he rebuked at the call agent "WHY SHD I ASK THEM?! IM THE BENEFICIARY AND I WANA SPEND THE $$ NOW!"

sad ya.. so much for YangErFangLao.................
 
for me once i got married, the first thing was to get my hb to buy insurance liao..... cos i told him if anything happen to him (touch wood), at least i got something to help tide me over.... same as for me too... but since i all along got insurance liao so he is on the safe side...
 
ting - my pama got buy some savings plan from him but he rtn the comms to my pama lah coz paiseh to earn ILs' monies mah haha.. but my pa has his own Manulife agent lah..
 
my hub and me got diff thinking in saving..

he feels tat insurance is a muz so he has all sorta insurance coverage which oso means every mth his paychk almost gone to premium..

for me i feel tat insurance is a cannot-see asset tats why i dun hv much policies and i feel tat having cold cash more impt if i need it urgently..

well, such a differing viewed couple ya?! haha. but i ustand when my hub feels tat when come to old age and fall sick, its very siong on the pocket and tats where insurance payout comes in handy..
 
i saw this kid at ntuc who is superb pampered n totally has no respect for his parents. he's probably abt 4-6 yrs old. his mum was lookin at the detergent section n he went 'pay, pay nw! i wan u to pay nw!' she jus kept quiet. thn the boy went to the dad who was pushin the trolley, pushed him away n said 'u go stand there!!' n guess wat, the dad reali went wher he was pointin n stood there w/o utterin a word! i was like?!?! he went bk to his mum again n shouted 'pay nw, pay nw' n tried to push her away. by nw, all the passerbys were lookin at the boy. thn the mum gently replied, 'ok boy, we r goin nw...' she was stil so calm. if i were her, i wil hv given him a slap!
 
Daphne,
think ur sleeping monster come to my side liao...me feel like sleeping nw....*yawn*

Ting,
wow,the mum n dad can be so patient.If its me,i will whack also liao..haha
 
cottoncandy, dunno leh cos i figured the first mth, bb will be breastfeeding so need to wipe only when burping the bb? i think maybe 2nd or 3 mths onwards then use bibs?
ya i bought 2 small packs and 1 big one cos no more liao..... but my mum said the big one hor, quite thick so if wrap bb, might be too hot for them.... maybe wrap immediately after shower?
 
ting - if im the mum i wld hv give one tight slap across his face! tat shd wake up his idea on harlow who is he talking to..
 
cotton/janf- exactly!!! most amazingly, thru out the whole thing, the dad din not utter a single word, jus stood there only. i saw sm of the passerbys shakin their heads!
 
ting - tink the dad too nice natured.. if kena my dad, tink he will give a boy one good one.. my dad is the quiet quiet sorta man but dun get on his nerves, he shout one time, me and my sis oso scared..!

my hub too got no patience for such thg.. good example is the kids in my hse.. half of the time hes shouting at them coz they sometimes no big no small..
