Comments on: My rojak state of mind http://mumsgather.com/2007/12/05/my-rojak-state-of-mind/ My very own mini, personalised, parenting resource. A cyber filing cabinet of parenting articles and links. I love sharing my children's favourite sites, online games, crafts and exchanging childcare stories and parenting issues faced with other parents.

I am writing to say that I can totally identify with no.5 'Because I am upset and unhappy suddenly all is not right with my world. Its funny isn’t it how our perception of things can change. From being content I suddenly feel like a recluse' and no. 7 'Sometimes he makes me feel like I’m walking on eggshells. This is a typical He says She says situation. We’re both thinking different things.' Especially for the past week due to 'too much' family time as we're clearing our leave. I guess this entry not only helps you, but it helps me feel better too. thanks :) <strong>And thank you for reminding me about this entry. :) I just wrote on my Mothering Times blog that "A successful marriage depends on two things, finding the right person and being the right person." I'm still struggling at being the right person. Hahaha. We had another misunderstanding again this past week too and I guess my New Year resolution for 2008 would be to reduce misunderstandings because the more of those we have, the bigger dent it is we make to our relationship. Hope you had a good Christmas holidays and Happy New Year to you. </strong> Hi MG, I have been a regular silent reader of yours for ages, since getting her thru MMB.

The dark cloud will be over soon. Sometimes, life is like that. There are times when everything suddenly turn upside down. But there are times when you feel really lucky. If time allows take a good nap. That's what I normally do. Sometimes when things tend to bottle up, I will cry secretly but really hard, then go to bed. My way of releasing tension and stress. As for you, forget the crying, just take a good nap, half and hour is good sometimes. If you haven't bought yourself something for a long time, it's time to pamper yourself for this Christmas. Sometimes spending makes you feel good, especially something you really like and worth getting. Besides, reading is a good habit, why not? Take care. Things will work out. <strong>Thank you Dolphine. Its still raining and dark here today but like you said, the sky will be be clear again and so will I. :)</strong> Cheer up. The dark cloud will be over soon. Sometimes, life is like that.

I know how tedious it is to have to fight to attend family dinners. I am in the same situation myself, making it worse is that my family goes out of the way to make DH feel welcome. Its just DH's ego that he dont want to be seen as the SIL who spends too much time with the wife's family. Still a constant issue between us. <strong>No ego trip here, just a dislike for gatherings in general. </strong> Awww…hopes things will straignten up at the end.
