A Homemaker’s Diary

It’s that time of the year again, when people get wed and hold their wedding reception. As a matter of fact, an ex student of mine already invited me for her June reception a few months ago. Thus prompting me to dig this old picture of orange wedding we attended in March this year.

I am not sure what is the favorite color theme for 2009 wedding, have to go to several wedding to come to a strong conclusion, but my guess is it will be something in golden tone. Like last year (2008) the favorite color is turqoise or something blue-tone.

To all getting married this year, may you be blessed and strong enough to brave the journey of married life, it could be a sweet experience throughout but can’t expect it to be less bitter. Whatever obstacles that may come your way, hold on and endure it together, as that’s the real test of love you have for each other.

On Sunday we went to Maxis Centre in KLCC to return the USB modem and get the Power WiFi package. It was the first trip for 3 of us to KLCC, not that we frequent that place that often even back then as a couple. I feel that KLCC is too crowded with all kind of people, making it really serabut to shop for anything..heh! Our favorite shopping malls are Subang Parade, Ikano and The Curve.

We managed to get everything settled (despite the stupid and rude customer service) and quickly left KLCC and headed to The Curve. Initially I was planning to check out forward facing car seat since our little one seems to be really restless in his current seat nowadays.

We went into Metrojaya and I asked Hubby to put our son in the Fisher Price Rainforest Jumperoo, and he loved it! huhu…Hubby was all into buying it (Hubby being tak sampai hati..hehe) but since the box is big, I thought we should go around and do more shopping before we get back into Metrojaya and buy it.

So off we went to Ikano, had tea at Kluang Station, went to Cold Storage and bought solid food for our son (some Gerber cereal rice, Gerber organic applesauce and Farley’s Rusk – not sure which one he’ll like since it’s his first solid food) and then we went back to The Curve to buy some items from Anakku boutique.

Since the current house is bigger and it takes me longer to reach him upstairs (and the possibility of not hearing him cry if we watch TV in the living hall), we decided to buy a baby monitor. Plus there is 10% discount in Anakku. Bought a few more long and short pants for his baju basahan and Sebamed cream (was looking for BUDS diaper rash barrier cream but the Mothercare outlet there are out of stock) and then we headed back to Metrojaya. I decided to sign up for Metrojaya member card as well since the Jumperoo is kind of expensive (sayang pulak kan the bonus point)..in fact I have been planning to be their card member for so long but since we hardly shop in Metrojaya before so no point in establishing membership..heh!

As I am updating this entry, my son is enjoying his Jumperoo..giving me a few good minutes to have some ME-time..hehe!

For those who wonder what’s keeping me quiet these few days, yes, we have moved to our own home and were not able to be online. Now that we have Maxis Broadband at home, I can finally update this blog.

The first choice was to get Celcom Broadband, but because it was hard to get the modem and gateway, we decided to take Maxis Broadband. After all I have been Maxis user for ages, the whole thing took less than an hour, and by the time we reached home from Sunway Pyramid, the line has been activated.

Even yesterday Hubby managed to work from home while supervising the laminated floor contractor. Hubby’s work space is now ready. Time to move in the work desk, the filing cabinet and his gadgets..keh keh. Pity there’s no air cond with less than 1 HP otherwise we could install one in his “bilik kerja”.

I am still waiting for Astro to call me to set the appointment to install the satellite dish..lembab la Astro ni…huhu! The normal TV reception is really, really bad and we have been surviving on TV3 bunyi-bunyian..(I have to layan Suria Kasandra at night..boring!)

Well, that’s it for now…Oh, great news, I got a Fagor dryer to help making my washing task faster and this Thursday, people from majalah Feminin & Famili is coming over to shoot step by step for bunga telur for their wedding related article..(apsal aku tak penah dgr pon majalah tu? huhu!)

I’ve been on this draft page for like 3-4 days since my last update on Labor Day..huhu! Now that I finally have the time and whatever leftover of energy, I don’t know what to write. The son is sleeping, and so do the father..heh! Hubby was so tired today since he slept at 4 a.m last night. Blame it on EPF matter..huh! Well, that’s a different story altogether.

The BUDS mozzie lotion I bought for my son arrived today. So did the tupperware I ordered for Mother’s Day. I already gave the fridge water bottles to SIL since she and her husband came to send their car tonight. We borrowed their car (or rather exchange cars) for about 4 to 5 days starting tomorrow to move most of the packed items especially the fragile stuffs and my craft materials to our new home.

Since I will be having my very own kitchen soon, I plan to manage the kitchen essentials nicely, thus the reason for Tupperware dealership sign up. Furthermore the nearest Business Centre will be in Bandar Puteri Puchong.

I am eyeing the salt n spice set though Hubby mockingly said that the spice will soon be left opened since I always forget to close the lid every time I cook..huhu! I think Hubby likes the idea of Garlic-N-All Keeper as well…(sorry readers, I am so lazy to edit the pictures to show what those items look like). Guess I really need to brush up my meticulous and organizing skills in the kitchen once we move in to our own home..heh!

Well, Hubby, one day you will be amazed with how organized our kitchen will be..keh keh..I wonder when will that “one day” be…hehe!
