It’s been….

 13 days since the last update?

I thought I wanted to wait for everything to settle down, to slow down. But no. Looks like that’s not going to happen any time soon. I received a call from Mom’s doctor to bring forward her surgery on a Fri morning and was told to rush down for a pre ad process which took 5 hours of my life. 

Then the very next day had to go to the dentist to remove her shaky tooth. Wanted to breathe a little on Sunday but had to do groceries. The haze not helping at all. 

Monday sent her for her surgery so had to do some waiting again. The next day she was to be discharged but there’s a delay. Upon reaching home saw her wound bleeding and had to rush back to A&E. Eh even now as I’m typing I can’t catch my breath. After 3 hours at the wait area, finally she was discharged. Her appt was brought forward to the day after and doc removed her dressing to look at her stitches. 

Despite heavy rain, the haze persists. 

And we don’t have any proper mask prep. 

Cousin and fam sent this over. Cheered her up a little.

While mom’s unpredictable recovery is ongoing, received a call yesterday that Obek was sent to A&E after a fall. 

Glad that we went down despite the walk being cancelled. Had some little2 freebies and a breather.

I’m not even sure if i’m doing alright. 

Ultra grateful

This year’s celebration felt a bit off cos we did a belated one. Boy was facing his Maths paper exactly on his actual birthday so he wanted a belated one. 

But Alhamdulillah. 

Food portion was only just nice not like a lot of balance.

We were so lazy to spend over $100 for cake and delivery so we ordered one from the hood bakery instead. 

And self collection too. 

Alhamdulillah too his gifts were mostly so functional. 

There’s more such as his fave pillow. I wanted so much to get him a smaller water bottle which his cousin gotten for him! Got hikmah eh cos I didn’t have time to grab him one.

And that personalised notebook? ❤️

Defo gonna steal his charmera without a doubt. 

Grateful for his monetary gifts as well.

May Allah reward the givers with alot lot lot more than what they gave. Amin. 

 

This was our first time ordering from Four Seasons.

Smooth transaction. 

So touched that the niece prepared these for the party. 

Eh I only had one seh. Didn’t even get to try the vanilla one. 

And his themeless bday cake.

Very affordable and tasted light. 

And I can’t believe I’ve forgotten what last yr goodie bag looked like. So this is proof of this year’s and also not the completed version. I included Popo muruku and corn snack as well. Also did a quiz for the guests and had to prep really cheap prizes for that. Heh. 

Unexpected gifts

 His bday week still going strong.

Uncle Yan and family sent this over on a Sunday night where the 3 of us almost already in lala land.

Heard the door bell and then the husb jolted awake saying someone’s at the door. 

And all 3 of us went to the door to find this ice cream cake sitting on our shoe rack. 

He personally delivered it with the lil one. 🥺

And we all missed them. 

When the husb bff asked me to choose which mofusand I want, he gave this cutie pooh filled with durian mooncakes as well! Now what can I fill this one with? 

Prolly his last Children’s day gifts.

Surprised at the kind of presies P6 got.

He’s so happy getting that deformed car from his form teacher and the other form teacher wrote names and wishes individually to the students. Can’t help singing Semoga Bahagia in our own rendition that goes ‘Sama-sama maju ke hadapan, pandai cari perempuan…’ 😬

It was a hard day trying to get Grab/ Tada so we crossed the road to the HDB area and saw this one. Eh two of them!

I don’t appreciate or get it when people gave hp as gifts because u know it’s only gg to last for a yr or two. So I’ve nvr asked him for hp but he will always gets new one for me when my contract’s up. And he’s been getting me Kate Spade casings since 2011. ❤️
