I Lost My Temper

August 4th, 2007 by shoppingmum

I wanted to blog about this, but I have forgotten about it.

Yesterday, I went for a painful spa, and I took lots of photos that I wished to blog about. So, as usual, my kids would be greeting me happily once I got back, even if I’m only out for less than 3 hours and they took their naps! All of us went to the room, and my kids played while I was trying to upload the photos. Well, if you are a mother, you will understand that we can’t just finish the task one by one. We will be multi-tasking like nursing baby, toileting, cleaning up the mess, shouting if the kids are trying to climb up to the higher rack, and etc. Got the idea? My room is as messy and noisy as it can be all the time.

So, I think I was in the midst of transferring the files, and I accidentally plugged of the cable because I was TOTALLY BLUR. Frankly, with so much nuisance around me, I got blur most of the time. LOL! In short, I lost all my 56 photos that I paid for the pain to take them. I deserved to curse or not??? *Argh!!!!!!*

I was really mad, and I needed some time out. I asked the maid to get in my room ASAP, and asked the kids to follow her for a while. At time like this, I needed to be alone because I was really angry, WITH MYSELF! After some chats with my blog buddies and cooling myself down, I went downstairs to bath the kids. They were so puzzled why I was so angry. I seldom let go of my anger, so they might be scared.

Gee…I was a lousy mother yesterday. But I didn’t release it on my kids. Luckily…

So, to make up with them, I brought them shopping and bought lollipops for them. I seldom buy them treats, but today I let them have some fun. Of course, a nice afternoon will not be complete without some kiddie ride.

Funnily, Justin was so scared! LOL! Isabelle, on the other hand, loved the ride.

The kids were so tired when they got back, but I delayed the nap time and let them have some TV first. Isabelle fell asleep almost immediately with less than 2 minutes of nursing, while Justin insisted on sleeping with his new dinosaur book. I have lost count of the number of dinosaur books he has.
