Life - light as dust

Today i read in a special post forum that one mummy lost a baby due to birth complications. Makes me even more firm in making the best for siang as heaven has given him (a tiny warrior at birth) a fair chance to fight and become what he may be able to be.

A tiny chance is always better than none. Grab it when it come. Appreciate it and value it.

Last night my hubby was not able to send us home (as he got company dinner to attend - an important function). Hence I, Siang and our domestic helper toke a cab home.

That cabbie makes me fume!... he purposely mumble very softly about the route he intend to take (when we board the cab). siang was making noise and i did not hear clearly. then he start the vehicle. halfway through, i realised he is not taking the road that my hubby always take (from my mama house to where we live)!!! so i query and he proclaimed that he did mention when we board the cab

As i was with siang and the domestic helper i did not want to create a scene. Hence i start to try to recognise the landmarks outside (he was taking a route that i was not at all familiar - i am a direction idiot, everyone who knows me know that) and i start to pausse and ask the cabbie which road is he using... he give the same flat answer "Just now when you board the cab, i already said!!", "anyway, singapore how you go, you will still end up at the destination"..... (*&*^W*&^&W^&W%&^%*^#@&#(**#

I kept quiet and just continue to figure out which route he is taking (but ... no use because i am really unable to).

My domestic helper seem to detect something is not right in my tone to the cabbie. hence she toke over siang and let him sit with her.

Well....we got home. total cab fee was $20.40!. i don't remember it cost that much (there was another time we toke a cab home from my mama house)

anyway, most important is we reach home safe and sound.

Thinking back. really appreciate my hubby for driving to and fro my mama house (5 days a week). thats a tough task...
