My 12 days of being a SAHM

Last week, Enchek Kedek went to Kuching for course and mum in law went back to Sibu to take care of her father. So it was only me & Ariana in Miri. I took 1 cycle off and my 12-days as stay-at-home mum begun.

A lot of things can be done in 12 days was what I thought, but in reality, I was too busy being a stay-at-home mum that I didnt even managed to finish 1 bag order. Haha.

Anyway, we (me & Ariana) survived through that 8 days (Enchek Kedek came home on the 8th day of suri-rumah-ing). I’ll sump up everything lah k on my updates upon being a stay-at-home mum for 12 days.

    ARIANA

Ariana only missed 1 day school due to flu & cough. Her attendance was full for the whole week. I managed to get her ready for school and off to school before 9 a.m (but her school starts at 8 a.m -_-“). She did tried to talk me into escaping school everyday, but a mom’s gotta do what a mom’s gotta do i.e bribe her with chocolates & toys. It is more like a cheat code actually.

‘Mommy, sik mok school’
‘Why?’
‘Sik mok school’
‘No school means no toys, no koket(chocolate), no bus (she’s a huge fan of the bus(???)), no baby (her anak patung)’
‘Ok.. No toys, no bus, no koket and no coconut’

Then mommy bingung sendiri. Coconut?

    HOMEMAKING

I cleaned the house everyday, did the laundry everyday and cooked breakfast and dinner everyday but had lunch outside everyday. Remember, cheat code! Hehe

    MYSELF

I enjoyed being the 12-days-stay-at-home-mum eventhough chaos everyday. I slept early everynight due to the endless critical thinking and activities with Ariana.

Im not sure, whether it was just me, or Ariana did repeat everything that she said not less than 3 times -_-“. There are times where my level of patient almost hits the limit, but, Ariana always have her backup plan.

But, on the bright side, I managed to spend more time to do hair treatment at home, face mask every night and never missed my supplement :).

    FINDINGS

Being a stay-at-home mum, is not as easy job. Dont ever think that stay-at-home mum just sits around the house whole days watching korean movie or telenovella. Those mommies out there that able to settle all SAHM chores and have the time to spend on TVs, internet or homebased business without the help from a maid, I SALUTE YOU!

Eventhough I managed to keep all things in place, but I used cheat code! Bought toys and chocolates for Ariana. I skipped folding clothes chores which ended up with 2 mountains of unfolded clothes. I did woke up late one morning, and only prepared roti paratha for Ariana to bring to school and I did not water the plants! I used the ‘hari-hari hujan’ excuse to Enchek Kedek started to question why his pokok dabei daunnya warna kuning.

And, among all cheat codes, the greatest saviour was, a huge bar of cadbury chocolate inside my handbag, if you sweet-tooth-mommies out there knows what I mean :p
