My Sticky Corner

About a week ago, we came across a great and inexpensive idea for Jules to explore his creativity. It comes in the form of a sticky board (made up of double-sided sticky sheet mounted onto a foam board) and an assortment of scrapbook materials such as buttons, spangles, straws, sweet wrappers, etc.

A Blog or a Dog?

Sadly, my Blog “died” approximately 1 month ago when I decided to get a Dog. Actually, it was not an intentional purchase even though TY and I have been considering getting a dog, on and off, for the last 3 years.

Last month, TY chanced upon a great deal on the Honda forum. Someone was selling a 10-month old pup – a salt and pepper Miniature Schnauzer. We drove all the way down to Seng Kang, checked out the animal, and sealed the deal on-the-spot for $450! We walked away that day, the proud owner of Terry, later renamed “Pebble” by Jules.

Little did we know, our lives were changed that day on Saturday, 21 March 2009! For aspiring dog owners, it is literally like having a second baby in the house, no exaggeration!
