Don’t you…..

 

Raya ready? Eh. Quite hyped about the new SMM. Although still skeptical and nothing’s concrete. Like changes can be done overnight.

Glad that I told myself to prep for Raya. New foundation and a new lip balm. Yes Dior no less. Nice ar the satin pouch. Can’t wait to collect the Bajus soon.

Been feeling really penat and sleepy of late. 

I could have napped in the day yet at night still turn in early. Is it post covid?

Ramadan’s going to be really busy. Will try to reduce social media time, macam betul je. Gonna help sis with so much too maybe. 

Let’s keep Raya preps to a minimal.

First ever LV delivery

 

OMGeee!

My first ever LV delivery! 

Received an sms from LV on Thur on a delivery for the next day. My instinct told me it’s gg to be cousin cos he was extra clingy that day and on the delivery day itself. He kept questioning me like ‘Tak merayap ke?’ and other miscellaneous questions. So I also tried to korek and told him abt this LV sms and saying it could be just a scam cos I didn’t order anything. Even checked with sis and husb and both clearly denied buying me anything. He still said U wait and see if it’s really a scam. So my sus getting stronger. 

On the delivery day, I told cousin that I’m going out. Konfem dia kancheong skit kan. After that told him that Dad and husb will be home though. Haha.

But when the clock almost hit noon, I thought to myself probably truly a scam or a mistake on LV side. And then a suited tall guy came at the door!

I asked if I could know the sender but he bluntly replied that he doesn’t know. Tsk.

Excitedly I opened the bag and saw the note. Woah betul nye complete for birthday and even selit Ramadan wishes. So thankful, so grateful and so blessed with this generous and ever giving cousin of mine. May he receive aplenty of rezeki so that he could send me Hermes next! Heh. 

Kingfisher Lake

 

Finally he managed to go see Kingfisher Lake. Been wanting to visit since the opening but hujan la, penat la. And yesterday was rather impromptu cos I wanted to get my essentials for Raya only at MBS. Dah kena layan the boy to walk in the sun first! MBS was really buzzing cos I think they’ve got an event ongoing. 

Kingfisher Lake was pretty, calming and full of greenery. Will never ever get tired of GBTB. 10x 10x la nak kena masuk the shop too. And 10x la penat ye. 

So just like that the 1 week break’s almost over. Not ready kan for the new term. Nak puasa lagi and quite a number of errands to settle before 1st Ramadan. Macam mana? Gonna treasure all the morning breakfast dates as much. 

***********

Is it you wanna appear in my dream?? Or tak sabar nak mintak kena lock up seblom Ramadan??

Annual Geylang trip

 

The husband promised to get us a new Baju Kurung set. So we went down quite randomly and wanted to just grab from the racks. Well at least we have kinda shortlisted the shops we wanted to go. However, we couldn’t bring the baju home just as yet. Both shops gotta complete the sewing, alteration for mine, and so we had to go down and collect another time instead.

It started pouring when we were about to go out, so put on my new Zara baggy jeans and Nike 

slip-ons. Dah planned eh nak pakai bag apa ended up just carry my DuckXBarbie tote je.

Thankfully, it wasn’t raining when we reached and the shops were opened. They’re family shops so opening hours might lari. Such a fruitful trip cos we managed to get all we wanted. 

Alhamdulillah!

And apa cite ni LV sent me sms abt a delivery tmr?! What a scam cos it’s been so long since I last went to the website or shop. 

Treasure

 

We finally made it! Effort much in planning to meet. This is my ex partner since 2008

It’s been crazy, we went through life’s changes together. Oh so much you wouldn’t even imagined. The one I played badminton with, brisk walked and haiz really alot la. 

I even had covid 2 days after her. 🙄

Partners much still.

Wanted to have hi-tea but somehow ended at my place. Planned to watch sunset but the sun decided not to show up despite being out throughout the day. 

I’m thankful and grateful that I’m still very much in touch with my partners. We all have been through so much besides being sidekicks. And as life goes on, I appreciate and treasure such meet-up. 

Covid-19

 

It all began with Dad. He was unwell on 14 Feb, Mon, and we gathered at his place just the last Saturday.

When sis tested him, it showed faint positive.

Then the husband turned positive on Wed, 16 Feb. Panicked sejap eh cos we all slept tog the night before and he was already feeling feverish.

Then Mom and the son on Friday, 18 Feb. Sis turned positive on 19 Feb. Me?? 

I couldn’t believe it either when I became C+ just as the son cleared his test on 24th.

It was chaotic. Physically, mentally.

The anxiety, paranoia but despite all, I am truly thankful for the perfect timing. Allah made me stay -ve throughout so that I could cook and look after both of the husband and son. I’m thankful that the husband could accompany him in the isolation room. BUT, I couldn’t help it. I broke down when I turned C+ because the husband had to work and I was lost on how to layan the already -ve son. Safe enough for me to put on gloves and cook? Surgical mask will do? And I was scared if my symptoms would be overwhelming on my 1st day. The husband told me that it would be okay but I wasn’t okay at all.

Thankfully, he took leave the next day and I could rest and recover. He settled the son, his hw and meals. He prepared my meals for me. ❤️ I was fortunate not to lose my appetite. Furthermore, he ordered really nice food every time. We worked the schedule out as the son returned to school. Made necessary arrangements and sacrifices. 

I am blessed with love and support from my daily mommies group, best friends, ex partners and family. They gave me food, helped me fetch the son, collected and delivered hw and more. They were there for me physically and emotionally. Alhamdulillah I am grateful that I had mild symptoms and finally totally -ve on Day 10.
