The birth of a new...

At 4.30pm on 31st December 2005 I witnessed the birth of my new wooden floor. It's conception was on Monday, 26th December 2005. The long and painful ( both to my ears and eyes ) labour started at 9.30am and delivery took place in my master bedroom on the last day of the year 2005. What a beautiful floor it was and I fell in love with it instantly( as can be seen by you ).

The praying room ( my second room ) was in a mess and so was my living and dining room ( as though besar sangat hehe ). There were bangkai katil, tv, side tables and the most horrible furniture friend, the 12 years of habuk accumulated behind the bed and drawer baju, all over the place . Tapi I dah get rid of the habuk le while the furnitures stayed in my living and dining room tu. Mana boleh tahan terbatuk-batuk dibuatnya. It's ok, for the new floor, kenalah berkorban sikit. Lepas ni clear baliklah those rooms.

Tonight I will be sleeping with a smile on my face whenever I look down on my floor. Well when you are not that rich, simple and inexpensive things like this can still bring joy to the heart. Kalau dah kaya besok tu, benda-benda macam ni dah tak hairan dah. So, being not that wealthy, does has its advantages, don't you agree?

Next time I will share with you about my new ....tungguuuu

To all the girls...

..that have paid my bills through out knowing me ( you should know who you are , kalau tak you are not the one paying kay ..hehe ) I want to say THANK YOU from the bottom of my heart. May be, just may be, I have said it in person but, being an ISO implementor ( ex in the case of IMR, but in my own life, I still hope to implement ) I would like the THANK YOUs to be documented, so that when an humanity audit is done, bahan buktinya ada.

I'm been blessed ( we all have ) to have so many people that care for me ( care enuff to pay the bills ) and I want all of you to know that I appreciate each and every bill paid no matter big or small. Like they say, it's the thot that counts, not the amount ( mungkin ada yang kata yeah right.. hehe ).So girls you can rest assure that you are all in my "gold book" not because you help paid the bills, but because you are my DEAREST FRIENDS.

That's all for now, I'm off to the PO to post my will ( and guess what ? some of you might just be in it ...suspence )

Yesterday was My Day

Tak sempat nak tulis apa2 semalam on my birthday sebab sibuk mengemas barang2 ofis in the morning and ribut taufan pula in the evening.

Got birthday wishes as early as the nite before, 12.00am sharp ( good job ), 6.05am, 8.43am, 8.55am, 9.56am, 12.24pm, 1.48pm,4.04pm and last sekali 6.41pm. Itulah total number of well wishes through smses and a few more through e-mails. I just want to thank all for remembering my day, the day I was born.

What did I do on this meaningful day. Let me just recap.. went for breakfast with my always there when I needed her friend, ManizaA. Had can you believe it, only roti canai, for the bday breakfast. Lepas tu balik rumah ( remember me the pensioner, tak kerja ) pasang cabinet dari carrefour. Half way memasang realised tersilap, buka balik and pasang again. Now dah kol 11.00am. Masuk the 3rd room ( now my temp office ) unpacked whatever yang I brought back from the office. Cuba arranged the best way I can. Penuh perna ( kata orang Kelantan ).

It's 1.00tgh, and there is no food for lunch. Perut dan lapar ( remember hanya roti canai tadi ), nak keluar malas, so buat campuran cecodok adabi ( just tambah bawang besar and H2O ) and went to read my mails. Stop to pray, goreng cecodok and duduk enjoy 1 mangkuk cecodok ( don't worry tak habis satu mangkuk daaa ).

At 3.00pm, watched my B&B lah apa lagi. Now Brooke dah tak jadi kawin ngan Nick but back with Ridge ( hmmmm macam tulah, tapi tengok juga ). After that waited for Aimy and Iman to come. Waited sambil tengok tv. Phone rang at 4.45pm, it's Aimy telling me about the rain at Setiawangsa and suddenly the cats and dogs ( or rather elephant and tiger ) reached Setapak too. They couldn't make it to my place ( cos u know lah parking kat luar nanti Iman kena hujan ) which I pun agreed. We ended up chatting on the phone for 1 hour ( tak yah cerita lah ya about what.. )

Then came the call from tmnet agent at Alpha Angle telling me to collect my modem for streamyx tu, so I contacted my dear friend ( cum installer ) to follow me and we went at night. Took and modem and a plate of nasi beriani ( plus the left over cecodok, tapi eaten while waiting for Isya' ). Balik rumah dia terus godek my notebook and at 11.30pm I was streamyxed, hence the new email add, if you all dah baca your mails this morning you all would have realised that! All those time I was watching my 29". At 12.30am went to zzzz.

That's My Day!

What happened today

Arranged for two temujanji this morning tapi by 9.00am dah jadi 3. The first one came at 10.00am to ukur saiz bilik for wooden flooring. Being a pensioner, takleh go for Pergolah kena jimat duit ( i don't make as much anymore, u knw ). anyway lepas ukur2 kos dah increased by 30%, what to do.

Then came the second appointment.. like the wind, he whooss in and out of my bedroom in less then 10 minutes. Wow, that was quick...( nak tahu story, laterlah bila jumpa hehehe )

The third appointment, was a pleasant surprise, lunch with my dear friends. I haven't not seen them for almost... let me think! five dayss hahaha, but it is always a pleasure to see them and chat ( is that what we should call it, a chat?? )..

That's it for today folks

Things to do before actual pension starts......

Today, pagi2 gi makan mee + bihun goreng berlauk sambal sotong at "DS"....then off to "AA" to buy plastik alas meja but jgn terkejut not for alas meja tapi cover grill kat balcony...(long story tak yah explain). Tapi disebabkan staff kat JJ tu pemalas, end up membeli cabinet buku...(sendiri fikir).

On the way ke parking, terjumpa promoter streamyx...since ada offer terus sign up sbb account dial up dipinjamkan sahaja..hehehe, lagi pun it's too slow and i don't have much time to spare ( biologically i mean, time i have ). Then off to carrefour to get some more things ( tak yah cerita, nothing interesting there )

Now i'm back at my own place doing this, writing dalam jurnal ini.

Pesaraan belum bermula tapi dah....

Terasa aman otak nii, peaceful feeling. Bangun aje bertanya pada diri apa yang I nak buat hari ni?? pelik, kalau dulu masa bekerja, you just get yourself out of bed and go to work. You don't think about you day. Macam robot aje. Bila you have time to yourself completely, you start thinking what to do, what's for today, I guess you start living your life for yourself...
