MICH'S BD & THE STORY OF LITTLE MISS DUMPTYHad a gathering with the forum's families. It was my first time meeting them. We wanted Jo to have a chance to meet kids of his age. Think he had a great time playing with his new friends. Go check out his blog for pics. It was a simple and enjoyable gathering...I made some friends too!

Saturday - Prelude to Mich's Birthday Bash
We had a mini party on Sat at HometeamNS chalet. Had the usual BBQ food and funny conversations. My Godson Tim was also invited. Just look at the pics below
Sunday morning - We had lunch at Gil's mom's vegetarian stall. this stall had been featured in a Variety Show and had very good ratings and comments. She doesn't just sell the usual vegetarian dishes. There were lots of interesting items to choose from...such as ramen, mushroom nuggets noodles, laksa, Lor mee, Hone Kong Mee, yam paste, tao suan (Jo's fave!), Creamy corn with wheat (my fave) ........ etc........... I highly recommend this vegetarian stall for cheap & yummy food........ it's at Amoy Hawker Centre, 2nd floor.......... The stall is opened from Monday to Sunday, closed in the afternoon at about 3 plus............ can't wait for my next visit! Here's 2 pics of the stall and the friendly stall owner:

We gave her a little surprise by secretly sneaking back to the chalet at 11 plus to celebrate her BD. Stayed over at the chalet........ now for the exciting bits to this post............
The Story of Miss or rather Mrs Dumpty.........
As her name implied, Mrs Dumpty had a great fall...... I mean a really GREAT FALL! It all began when she decided to take a another route to the carpark in the morning when she was leaving the chalet. Unfortunately, she was also carrying Baby Dumpty. The step at the exit was unusually high and she being a little on the blur side, fell over with her precious darling. Baby Humpty fell right on the back of his head........... a loud "thud" followed by a piercing scream was heard.............. Mrs Dumpty had a great fall......... she was wailing for Mr Dumpty and crying as she held the screaming baby. Mr Dumpty was pale as a ghost upon seeing the two casualties........ he carried the baby and sent them to the hospital
Mrs Dumpty was so guilty about dropping Baby Dumpty that she totally forgotten about her own injuries. Her left ankle swelled up to the size of the famous "Ye Zhi Mei" bao and she was oblivious to it until she reached the hospital. She had to be wheeled into the A&E. Baby Dumpty appeared to be fine as he was still as alert and active. His PD said that he should be ok and just asked them to monitor for signs of vomiting and fever. But poor Mrs Dumpty had to take an X-ray and had her fractured ankle put in cast. This was her first fracture and hopefully last too! Fortunately, she wasn't warded. Here some pics of her injuries............
The X-Rays
Her Cast- this is the latest cast which cost $230 for a boot! Blood suckers!
The terrible abrasion - she had them on hands as well!

That's not the end of the story....... Mrs Dumpty was bored stiff at home and she wanted to watch this movie........
And she did just that....haha...... with the help of Mich & Ken....... Ken was her "Knight In Shiny Armour" at the theatre cos he carried her up to her seat! She really played the "Damsel in Distress" well......haha...thanks Ken!
Mrs Dumpty loved this show despite all the bad reviews. Maybe it's the English , maybe it's the quotes.....maybe she is just in need of a good cry............ as Robert Frost, the famous Poet said, " In three words I can sum up everything I’ve learnt about life: it goes on"........... Yup, life still goes on for Mrs Dumpty although she had to struggle with the inconveniences of taking care of Baby Dumpty and enduring the pain.
THE END
Before I end this post. Here's a big thank you to all the kind souls who had offered their help and company! THANK YOU!
