A Homemaker’s Diary

I know, I know, this is my weakness, shopping for fragrances..hehe! Well, if you simply want to feed your shopaholics obsession, there is new site in town for you to check. I know there is eBay and such, but this one is where you can compare price before you indulge in your retail therapy.

With mpire.com, you get to find the best deals online. Well, not only for perfumes and colognes, you can search almost everything. I tried to find craft supplies last week but sad to say most of the items are on Amazon and they don’t send to Malaysia..huhu! But still having to know that there exists such selection would be enough to satisfy my shopping craving..heh!

Or if you simply want to do some comparison between retail and auction price, you can check the pricing trend data on Product Details. Sometimes the auction price is way higher than the retail price, so better check around before you continue the bidding game.

Oh, one thing new for me, I never know there is such thing as Jogger Stroller. Check out the details here. The green color is nice, huh? Blend well with the grass..haha!

Sometimes just as we thought we plan it all, nature has a good way to prove that our decision could be wrong.

I can tell you that I am so relieved that we won’t be moving to JB and Hubby has decided not to take the Singapore job. The KL job is still waiting for answer and by tomorrow Hubby will decide whether to take that job or not.

In the meantime, I will be going along with my business plan for this year. I really hate the idea of commuting to work especially in the middle of KL so I guess I know why Hubby is still hesitate to take the KL job.

Hopefully his previous boss will be happy to reconsider his offer which Hubby has turned down 1-2 months ago. Working in Cyberjaya will be a lot less hassle and traffic-jammed free if you consider our home’s location, a mere 10 minutes drive to and fro. Plus I would get to use the car since I can always send and fetch Hubby from work (if the office is in Cyberjaya).

I pray that his cranky old boss is not so crazy this week..hehe! That poor man (he’s not poor, he’s a millionaire with crazy head..) must be having tough time adjusting with the new baby boy in his life.

I need to tell something, especially for someone who has been wondering what is really bothering my mind for the past few weeks. The story is like this. Hubby has been jobless since 1st September. And I have been worried sick (am still worry) about our financial situation. However with all the effort and hard work and sacrifice, I think we can manage for now.

And last week, on Friday, Hubby got 2 job offers, one in Malaysia and another one in Singapore. In a way, it should not be a tough decision to choose which job to take but after the initial experience with the previous company, we should be more cautious this time.

90% possibility that Hubby will go for the Singapore job (which starts early Oct) and he has to relocate himself to Johor Bahru and commute everyday to Singapore. First we thought we should find a place in Singapore but after calculating the rental there (and the currency conversion), we might as well buy a bungalow here..huhu!

So now, should I pack my things and the whole house and move to JB with Hubby? Or should I stay here and we become a long distance couple, only meeting every 2 weeks. And we haven’t found the place in JB yet. I think my mind will be thinking so much about a lot of things for the next couple of days until we sort everything out…huhu!

I really need to find the right time to pass this frame to my friend. I finished this scrapbook style frame of her baby’s pictures more than a month ago (or was it 2) but couldn’t find the time to go and meet her in person. I used IKEA frame which I painted and did the crackle effect and the layout was done using most of the scrapbooking items I bought from eBay. I want to give this frame as a gift for her firstborn daughter and I really hope she’ll love it.

Worse come to worst maybe I’ll post this to her home address. Or perhaps if time permits, we could meet somewhere during this festive season..hehe!

Found this on one of the blogs I read daily. Not sure how it goes, but since it is associated with PayPerPost, I just give it a try.

It’s a blog directory, so since it is still new and fresh, it does not hurt to submit this blog to the directory. Who knows being among the first few thousands would help make my blog more well-known in the cyberspace..heh!
