      Not looking forward to CNY this year....

      What is CNY when your status is a Widow..
      People will avoid me ...as I am now considered as a unlucky person.....

      Did not bother to buy anything for CNY....
      Will hide at home , watch my TVB dramas/sleep :snooze: /eat....

      But not to spolit everybodys mood, allow me to wish everyone:
      祝大家在新的一年里和气致祥、身体健康、家庭康泰,万事如意! 新年快乐!万事如意!阖家幸福!
      :hugs: :hugs: Don't let others' opinions affect you and I'm sure most people don't feel this way towards widow or widower. All of us have our problems but whatever they are let us forget about them for the time being and enjoy ourselves during CNY. Enjoy your freedom (look at it this way - you can now go and do what you like without considering whether your other half like it or not) and pamper yourself this CNY and others to come. :love: HAPPY CNY!!!

          Thank you! but don't ever consider yourself as unlucky person 😄




          Yess, do not allow yourself to think that way. We do wish that you will find some other ways of enjoying your CNY, in your own way.

          Take care of yourself and your loved ones.

          新年快乐!

            Don't think of yourself as unlucky...it's not something you want.
            Those who avoid you are really mean.
            Don't hide at home...go out with the kids. I wish you 身体健康 in the year ahead.

                  Dolphinsiah,


                  Ya, do go to Universal Studio. Though some rides Q are long but a interesting and fun place to visit! 🕺

                  Some things in life are unpredictable, so no one should say that kind of nasty thing to you. Forgive and forget and move on. :imsorry:

                  Always look at the positive side of things and it'll make your life happier and easier. :rahrah:

                  Cheer up and do have fun for the New Year! 😉

                    Oh dear, DD now needs specs at a young age and I am expecting those irritating in-laws (not just the grandparents) to make irrelevant comments that will hurt a mother's heart.


                    I am not gonna let them get away with it. I am already rehearsing my acidic replies just in case. :mad: :nunchuk:

                      CNY! I love it! But I fell sick and things are piling up! 😢 Spring cleaning not completed, new clothes haven't' been washed and ironed, old stuff not given away yet...where is the karang guni man when you need him?


                      I have mixed feelings about the shopping - though crowded, it's really exciting - and the kids can feel the mood too. But must really visit Chinatown, cos these days, we see less and less street shopping so most of mood can only be felt there and in Shopping centers (also less)

                      I love the new year songs 😉

                      Visiting relatives - also mixed feelings. I like visiting, but can get really tiring. I really donna what to say with relatives esp. some in-laws whom I only see once a year. Very embarrassing sometimes - just a few words of greetings then mind goes blank... I find it comfortable just listening to the chatter going on around me.

                      Hope everyone has a good holiday! Happy Lunar New Year!

                        strangely I've never looked forward to CNY...but this year even more so cos SIL (DH's brother's wife and MIL's baobei DIL) is preggie with her 3rd child, dragon baby to boot. Can imagine all the comparisons with me and her (I only have one child) and all those inquisitive questions from the in-laws and other relatives...really wish I could skip this year's reunion dinner. 😞
