Lazy Sunday

Sunday is always a lazy day for me. This Sunday is no exception. Woke up, had breakfast, did some ironing, no washing (@#$%^&), made lunch and yippeee.... 1st blogger's meeting cos Rachel, Ipoh mali ledi! Very last minute, thought tak jadi pulak but it did. You can read it all here.


Before I went off to meet these nice bloggers, I have to take a pic of my little prince making a mess in the house...



Him again, with his MESS and enjoying his cup of yogurt after lunch...

Look at those miniature cars, they are everywhere in the house! Have to ask hubby to stop buying, if not, we can open a shop ledi!

My weekend up-dates

Thanks to all mommies for their comments on my STRESS level post. Feeling much better now but everytime I walked pass the washer, I will like "Grrrr, shiaks!" but very much better now. I called the guy who is suppose to repair my washer but he said he is off on Sats and Suns so I will have to wait till Mond. Sigh, if I know how to open the 'trapped' door now, I would know how to replace the door lock already. But then, if I know eveything, then these people would loose their job right! He he....

Yesterday was spent at my own house with my mom cos she came over after we went marketing together. She came to help me with some house chores like to clean up my kitchen cupboard, helped me to clear up Oscar's clothes cabinet and helped me with my 'tenggiri' fish. I just have no idea how to make it. Mom made it into paste and helped me store into the fridge. Then later, we went back to mom's place to pick up those washed laundry and had dinner and mom's place. As usual, groceries shopping is a must.

Today as of now, still no plans yet cos hubby need to do some delivery. Waiting for Rachel from Ipoh to call me.... Guess today will be 'rot-at-home' day till this evening's dinner. I just love weekends, even though its spent like sitting around at home. At least, I can do some work and also to spend some time with Oscar. Now searchig the web to see if I can find some sites teaching people how to make 'play-dough'.... Saw LaundryAmah's kids playing, so I tot I want to make some for Oscar too.....

STRESS

Because my washer koyak on me, I am bored and tired... sounds irrelevant right? Bored cos weekend stuck at home again cos hubby got to do some delivery, tired cos mom came over and we cook a feast and tired also cos I travel twice to mom's place to get my dirty laundry done! So @#$%^%$# sienzzz!

So, I take up this quiz.... and I am like

Your Stress Level is: 35%

You are slightly prone to stress, but generally you keep it under control. You know how to relax and take things as they come, even when your worlds seems to be falling apart. Occasionally, you do let yourself get stressed out, but you snap out of it pretty quickly.

How Stressed Are You?

STRESSSSSSSSSSSSSS..........

Aaarrgghhhh!!! I hate this!!!!

ALAMAK!!! I am so stressful! Guess what? My washing machine decide to DIE on me during weekend like today!!!!! Irritating or not?! @#$%^&^*&%##

This weekend also I have lots to wash cos during the holidays, I was busy washing the bed linens, curtains and floor rugs... so, all our clothes are like lying in the room. I thought I can start my laundry marathon tonight but I WAS SO SO WRONG!!!

The door lock to the washer pecah ledi!!! I did one load and when the load is done, I waited for like 10 mins as usual cos I wash with hot water so I want to let it cool down before I open the door... to my horror, when my hand went to reach for the door, I open as usual, and the door gave a sound "snap"... Darn.... I knew it.... I knew the door lock snapped cos being in this industry, I think I know a little bit here and there about washing machines. True enough, the door could not be opened anymore and I can see my clothes 'suffocating' inside with all the heat and moisture!

Shiaks! I knew the washer is kinda 'sick' cos I noticed the spin was inconsistent and also the door is like 'hard' to open sometimes but, TONIGHT THE DOOR LOCK 'PASSED AWAY' .....

This washer non-stop give me headache ledi!!!! Two weeks ago, the drain valve got something wrong and I, MissGyver (not Macgyver) did what a normal technician did... and I repaired the washer while hubby stood at a side looking blankly at me!!!

*sigh* really potong my steam la this incident.... got to bring dirty laundry to mom's place and hope mom let me use her washer.... her washer new one... so she very sayang... the washer is 5kg but she only allow to wash 3kg... waste of resources I said!

Second child

I went over to mom's place for dinner tonight after work. Had dinner and as usual, chatted with mom. Its nice to yak and yak with her cos we both also gila gila wan... hehe.

Then mom have to bring up the topic again. Which is, when am I getting a second kid. I sheepishly answered, "NoW"! Pregnant ledi! But she knows I am joking, then as usual, gave me a piece of her good mind... telling me I'll be lonely when I grow old la with a single kid, my single kid will be lonely la, this and that la... bla bla bla bli bli bli....

Sometimes, I really wonder, do I really want a second child? Is Oscar lonely?

I loved Oscar dearly and I cannot imagine if I ever have another child, will I love him as much as before. Will I be a good mommy to two kids whereby I am not a good mommy to my one and only child now? I really doubt myself. I don't want to have second child also is because, I really miss days where I can laze in front of the TV doing nothing or sitting on the couch reading my fav book or mags. I really miss the days I hang out with my friends having high-tea and yaking till our saliva runs dry! Ha ha.... am I selfish or what? I really don't know. But, I do long for another kid around to play with Oscar cos Oscar talks to himself sometimes and I know Oscar is lonely...

So, second child or no.... *sigh*....

Nope, why should I be embarrased whereby this is a place where I can show off my pride and joy, that is my family. Not a private thing cos alot of stuff I don't reveal or discuss in my blog.

Yummy-li-cious Dinner

After much pleading and begging... finally we went out for a walk at One-Utama. To our HORROR, its so jam and the parking is full! No choice but to pusing a few round before we found one parking lot.

First thing in our mind is to MAKAN first. I told hubby that LaundryAmah told me that there is this place that serves BBQ quite 'jeng' wan...

*Don't know what's with him, always pretend to be sleeping...

* Making funny faces in front of the hot plate...

* A variety of stuff to combine into the dipping sauce (aiya, Amah, its just BBQ sauce la... not some special sauce we tot!)

* Our Dinner....Pork Supreme.

The service was good as the waiters and waitress take turn to ask us what else we need and helped us to re-fill our soup and tea. At first, they asked us if this is our first time visiting the restaurant. We answered yes and the waitress explained to us what are the ingreadients pre-served to us and explain to us how to use the lard to coat the hot plate and also how to combine the dipping sauce to achieve the utmost taste! Overall rating: 7/10. Cannot give 8/10 cos the plate is full of cabbage... should give some other vege ma...

After dinner we went shopping for hubby's working pants and we bumped into these group of 'Ah Gua' dancing on stage... almost make me puke my dinner....

Chit Chat

Its a boring holiday for me considering the fact that I am now rotting, growing fungus, cobwebs and God knows what else. Reason for so is hubby is busy with the set up of the so called SOHO at home cos he wants to travel less to his 'rent-an-office' in Serdang. And also can work at the comfort of just wearing boxer shorts and wearing t-shirts at home. Oh ya, hubby works a lot at home cos he needs to do artwork and copy writing etc etc... he's a 'printer'. He only needs to go out for delivery and to meet new customers. Look what he bought over the last weekend...

17 inch flat screen monitor c/w d-Link wireless "what-do-you-call-this?"

Now that we can go wireless at home, I am now blog on the couch, on the bed and even in the toilet!!! Opps, sorry, being disgusting here ledi!

Where am I? Oh yes, suppose to go for shopping today but Oscar took a long nap and hubby pulak suggest that we go at night, so I chatted with a friend online. She was so surprised that I AM STILL WORKING cos I did hinted few years ago if I ever got pregnant, I might want to be SAHM.... hehe, I guess I didn't keep to my word or rather, I can't tahan being a SAHM.

Normal conversation took place, how is she and her job and how am I and my job and did she get her bonus this year (she got 3 months but break into two times payment) etc etc. She reads my blog sometimes but she prefer to hear it from me... strange girl. Not married yet this friend of mine... very available and eligible and did I mentioned AVAILABLE? He he, free ad for her la next time in my blog. I guess she is being too picky in choosing her life time partner. She is not young anymore considering the fact that she is 3 years elder than me. Pretty girl, very happy go lucky and very gila gila like me...

Sigh, she told me she is going off for dinner in town in some donno what name restaurant in Marriot and later to clubbing... yes, not working tomorrow so itchy backside lor... Asked if I want to join cos the other friends she is going out with later, it so happened to be my ex-colleagues too. Haiya, how to go leh, me and Oscar go together ah? Cannot la.... Sigh, I miss those days I hang out with friends during weekends from morning till late at night.... Had high-tea and yak till our jaw ache.... Not that I dislike my current life style, but sometimes, I think I need a break myself... ALONE! Without the little kid and the BIG KID! I know I can anytime leave Oscar with my mom, but my mom needed her break too so don't want to be unfair to her la....

Sigh.... let me sign off now and 'beg' BIG KID to bring me out for a walk before I grew more stuff than fungus!........ See how teruk I am... I am now looking forward to weekend pulak! LaundryAmah is so going to deduct my marks in her yearly review on me liow... ngek ngek ngek!

BORING!!!!!!!!!!!!

SO BORING... I COULD DIE OF BOREDOM ANYTIME NOW!!!
Wake up... breakfast...house chores...nap time...prep for dinner...watch tv...BORING ar not??!!!
HUBBY where? Ah yes.... he IS SO DARN BUSY with his work UNTIL I THINK he forgot that today's a public HOLIDAY!!!! SIENZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZ!!!!

My Wonderful Weekend

I had a wonderful weekend today. Supposed to accompany hubby to Bukit Beruntung but while driving half way, hubby's customer called to cancel the appointment. Yippee, cos the North South Highway is like hell! We heard from the radio that the jam was like 5km! Phew! We en-route and turned into Kepong cos hubby suggested we visit the Carrefour in Kepong. Well, since we are in that area, why not. After buying some groceries, Oscar wanted lunch and it is already 2pm. Nothing much to eat in Carrefour so we travelled further and stop at Jusco in Kepong (today seems to be like Kepong shopping day for Oscar). Had lunch in one of the restaurant called the Red Door. The entire shop's decor is very...erm, woody like! The tables and chairs are made of wood, I mean LOG! Yes, its not 'sam kap pan' but real tree logs! Soooo heavy the chairs. Food was so so only but quite expansive. Jalan Jalan and shopped a little as hubby wants to get some jeans and I needed some T-shirts too. Again, we stopped by to get more groceries. Planning to make Fish & Chips tomorrow for dinner. Then, Oscar was too tired, so he slept inside the trolley... full of shopping bags, no pics to show la. Then when Oscar woke up, we decided its time that we go home cos its already 6pm. Time to look for dinner cos I am dead tired and lazy too he he. So, I suggested to go have some claypot rice. Where else but the famous stall in Petaling Street. My prince Oscar have not been to Petaling Street in his entire life! This is his first time and also my first time after I gave birth to Oscar. Walking along Petaling Street is really something exciting cos there's alot to see and buy. Don't dare to buy too much food cos sure cannot finish.... Just bought some 'Fung Wong' egg tarts and their famous 'Char Siew Paus'.... He he.... Some cam-whoring today too.......

...Eeewwww...

We signed up with Diamond Water Filter after we moved into our new house 1.5 years later. Before that, we only had mineral pot filter which I will usually take water from the tap and fill it into the mineral pot and I will then take the water from the pot and boil it for Oscar and me and hubby drank direct from the mineral pot cos the water is safe for drinking.
Today marks the 18th month we have signed up for the Diamond Water Filter and hubby decided to call the service guy to come and service the filter. Actually hubby can do it but hubby decided to do a mega cleaning like to clean the inner filter and to change the filtering sheets as well.
The guy came and he did his stuff.... then I keh poh chi, I went outside to '8'..... to my horror, the filtering sheets are filthy dirty and full of mud and sands!.... Here are some pics as proof!

*Opening some valves.

* Yukes! So dirty! Full of mud!

* The CLEAN filter sheets.

Can you imagine if we do not have this filter and the water we are drinking are murky and ..... God knows what it can content... I am not saying that with the filter, we can drink water direct from source, knowing our BolehLand, how clean can our JBA water be... but at least, water are filtered from its foreign particles and sand..... You dont want to 'choked' when drinking plain water right?

(Nope, I am not getting paid for this post cos I am not advertising for Diamond. I just want to let my friends know that you must have a water filter at home, that is all)

Remember this?

Yes... we are still talking about this!!! I know I am not being a good wife but this is really making me chi sin! This is really good biz for hubby cos this company gave hubby a very huge order(and more to come I hpe) but its freaking me out cos I have to chipped in to help too! Can't take it cos this thing smells toxic and also folding it cuts my hands all over. Sorry dear, I know this biz means a lot to you and we can be very comfortable if this company gives you biz like this monthly.... but, its taking up our house space and I am getting sick looking at Guang Liang's face...

Its in EVERY corner of the house!!! I want to dream of driving my fav MPV but I dont want to dream about Guang Liang lor....

Get Rid of this...

Was thinking of a way to get rid of this badly....

Cos he will look like this with it!

Tried all sorts of method... medicated oil... chili padi... you name it, I've done it. Even tried to throw it into the dustbin... he went to pick it up! Die or not!

Up-date...

Lazy to up-date my blog and also SCREAMYX line at home was and STILL giving hell to both me and hubby. So, I decided not to post any up-date on our wedding anniversary.

But, today since I am home alone with Oscar, I tot of posting some up-dates this week...

See.... my wedding Album, and some other pics and whenever I show Oscar our wedding pictures, he will ask me "Mommy, Oscar where?" "Oscar late alredi so no photo hai mai?" So, to please this little boy of mine, I have made a smaller version our wedding photo album but now incorporating Oscar's photos.... (will show later cos I can't seem to get the correct angle to take the photos....)

New "Seat"

Ever since we got Oscar the new booster seat, he can't stop sitting on it! Whether we are in the car or at home! Yes, he asked me to bring it down from the car and let him sit in front of the TV.




See, he is enjoying himself in front of the TV.

Puzzled?

In my previous post , I did mentioned that Oscar likes to play with puzzles. Here are some snap shots of him in action. And again, the below are only part of what he have in our house. The rest are all at my mom's house; which my mom actually complained to me non stop and asking me to stop buying toys for Oscar.... *sigh*

* Smilling all the way...
* Concentrating... (time for bed actually)
* His masterpiece...
* Beh tahan liow, want to zzzz...

Woo hoo... I love this so much!

Was hinting non-stop to hubby to get me a new camera cos the old one not changgih anymore... so was waiting and waiting .... and taa-daa.... my wedding anniversary present arrived early!

Our wedding anniversary falls on the 14th Oct and its a Saturday.... so I am planning to belanja hubby for Jap food....

This camera is very small in size... the only downside is that this camera is only 4 pix. So, aiming for a more terra one.... pray hard for Valentine's Day gift now.... hehe so greedy la me....

** HAPPY WEDDING ANNIVERSARY DEAR **

Shouting @#$%^$#

Today is really not my day.... so I curi tulang and chat a little while now.

Was sitting in front of my pc when a COLIK of mine came and threw at me a piece of quotation i faxed the other day to a customer. He didn't talk to me nicely some more threw that quote on me and ask me "what the shit are you quoting here"..... I was like WT!@#$%#.... I remained calm and the below take place:

Me: XX (name), what happened? I dont understand you?
XX: This (shouting)... what is this?
Me: (in my heart... what does this look like to you? a piece of cheesecake or a piece of table cloth?... a piece of paper with my quotation on it la!!!)... I just said a quote i prepared the other day for ABC Company.
XX: Do you know what are you doing? You are trying to chase a customer away. Do you know this customer is our potention bla bla bla (the rest I cannot absorb already cos he is practically insulting me)
Me: So? What do you want me to do now? I have already explained to this customer why our price is this and reason (I explain myself cos I don't really go down on our retail price unless its necessary and knowing this customer is like "kacang melupakan kulit" so I dont bother to work out a nice price for them.... maybe later but not at this moment la)
XX: (Start to curse me in F word)
Me: Eh, XX what do you want here (me shouting at the same time)
XX: (Was taken back a bit cos he always think he is right)... No, I am not angry but I want you to know........... blab la bla bla....

You see, I usually don't lost my cool cos its not pro to do that.... but I hate it when I am being scold by the F word..... But, deep down, I am so sorry XX. I didn't mean to yell back at you cos its like I didn't show my respect to you too.............. *sigh* today really not my day............

Up-Grade

Nothing to do tonight and I am feeling very very lazy to cook... so I ajak hubby to go Mid Valley for dinner. Before we head for dinner, I stopped by the Jusco bakery to get some buns... Shiaks, one fat, short with humongous boobs malay girl wanted to walk pass me while I was in the Q and she asked me to "Execute (Excuse) me"... I really feel like executing her cos I was really mad! With her height and the crowd in the bakery, we all in the Q could hardly move. She cannot get her fat-ass to walk even a few more steps and exit from behind... as she was asking me to execute her, she simply walked pass me with the stupid face and ugly boobs rubbing my tray full of buns!!!! I feel like stuffing my chicken floss buns in between her pig-like nose! Ok, sorry, I must not "kutuk" like that... sorry ah...

Ehem, after dinner, we walk around and I remembered I was suppose to get Oscar a booster seat cos he out-grown his car seat... The old car seat is a very sturdy seat... hehe, courtesy of LaundryAmah (she gave it to me as Oscar's full moon present). So, we bought this for Oscar... you can see him enjoying himself sitting on it and fallen asleep on it too!
*Smiling happily..."new toilet"!
* Tidur ledi...
* Oscar imitating daddy with the shopping bags...

All in, its a very relaxing evening.... and very full... (all pics taken with my camera phone.. so very poor quality)

Oscar's Obsession..

Oscar hardly play with any other toys. I bought him alot of toys but the only toys he ever play with are his mini cars... and he have lots of it... the below are only 'part' of it cos some of it are at my mom's place.

"Oscar always lines them up like real cars in the car showroom"
Then, I bought him some books to read with through Kieran's kindy. Oscar enjoyed it so much. He insist that I read it to him every night before we go to sleep. But Inoticed Oscar only likes to read when I read with him... When he is alone, he only wants to play with cars. So how ah? Meaning he is not a good reader? Meaning, he can't sit down quietly and concentrate on something? But he loves to play with puzzles.. and we buy him different puzzles everytime we go out... is there something missing here? I really want Oscar to learn to read cos he is going to school soon so he will not be able to catch up if he does not listen or concentrate on books....
"Books and playing puzzles alone"

Little Vietnam Restaurant...

We had dinner at this Vietnam restaurant at Citrus Park in OUG, Old Klang Road... name of the restaurant is called The Little Vietnam...



Overall, satisfying... portion wise, ok not too big not too small. Service, excellent,just one minor complaint... this place is full of mozzies.... eeeee i hate mozzies!!!!
