BEAUTIZA

I am so happy to blog about this…. My parent’s 36th wedding anniversary! Married on 29 July 1972. Blessed with four children, 3 girls and a boy, and now they have 10 grandchildren.

There were ups and down in our journey as a family… they were hard times but our family stick together.

Daddy & Mummy,

Thanks for being there for us, during our happy and hard times. Whenever we asked for help, you will be there no matter what, you thought us to ‘love people who hurt us most’ ridiculous and impossible we thought but its the reason why your marriage survive. Mum have done a lot to keep our family together and she still look pretty… i don’t remember she had done any acne treatment in her life. Both of you are still young at heart… loving and sporting grandparents!…

We Love both of you from the deep of our heart…. We Love you always…..

From :

your children,

Sharon & Geodfrey, Shirley & Christopher, Bonaventure & Doreen, and Shella…

your grandchildren,

Sherene, Govind, Gerard, Joey, Claire, Sean Matthew, Chrissa Marie, Dawson, Daniel, and Bridget.

O Almighty God, you gave us the commandment to honor our father and mother. In your loving kindness hear my prayer for my parents.Give them long lives and keep them well in body and spirit. Bless their labors; keep them always in your care. Bless them generously for their loving care for me. Grant that, through your grace, I may always be their support and comfort, and that, after our life together on earth, we may experience the joy of together praising you forever.  Amen.

I hope my car will forgive me for not sending it for service on time, I can’t imagine if the car is human, it would have chest pain or coughing.. lol. My husband send the car for service, change motor oil, etc, lucky no need to change the ac compressor. The car never been washed for … so long… imagine how terrible it looks in and out.

I just let my husband deal with it, actually i care a lot about the car but i don’t know much about it. Whenever i heard weird sound in the car, i will start asking questions to my husband, i know he got fed up sometimes.

That evening when my husband and son fetch me, my eyes was on the car… wah so good.. it have been washed… it look so great.. shiny blue!

I complained to my husband how difficult it was to handle Sean while driving and now i have both Chrissa and Sean in the car, surprisingly Sean behave well, while Chrissa flow with her mood, there were times they really got me crazy especially when they start shouting to each other. Its a stressful journey sometimes but i am getting over it somehow and i am beginning to enjoy my routine.

I haven’t got a free weekend for myself.. and i am longing for that moment to come soon and the first thing i want to do is to go for a massage. I have a friend who own a beauty school and one of the massage therapy schools in Kota Kinabalu, so i guess shouldn’t be a problem to fix an appointment… mmm can’t wait for that day.

This body really need to be massaged and my brain need to relax!

I woke up yesterday by the message alert on my hp….’sis, we will transit to Brunei and leaving at 5.15pm from there’ . So ‘today is the day’… my parents and sister coming back home. My husband definitely can’t fetch them so i had to plan ahead. At 4.30 i left the office with my colleague, Juvi… i offer her a ride to her daughter’s school and at the same time she can helped me look after Chrissa. Finally we reached Asia City Complex where my niece anxiously waited for us.

We reached the airport at 5.40pm, parked the car and waited. We got excited to see ..Royal Brunei… ‘landed’ on the screen exactly at 6.07pm. Chrissa doesn’t want to walk at first but when she saw so many people in the Arrival Hall… she went in.. together with Sean.. they were running near those people waiting for their luggage, i was running like a mad lady in between those people but managed to grab both of them out of the area. They didnt stop there, they run at the hallway and made 3 rounds… so tiring catching them…ya.. ya .. kids had fun but mummy going mad.

Parents and sister came out from the Arrival Hall almost 7.00pm. Bought KFC and headed home. The interesting part was the time their took out their things from their bag… no rubis item found, sharp items prohibited but my kids drooling when they saw few catchy items.

So happy to have them home at last! my sister will blog about her trip and i will get few pics for my next post.

Wah.. it was looong time ago that Ladyjava tagged me with this subject .. and i find it interesting anyway. I didn’t have time to really write about it but i have been thinking about this.. mmmm let me think what age that i want to reverse myself in.

I think i want to go back to the time i was 21 years old just to hold my sweet memories and undo mistakes i have made back then.

I should have saved more more money and i should have chosen fashion design instead of secretarial. I know i can go far in fashion industry, i might be in Paris now with my own label.. but no worries my passion are still fashion.

I should have told my bestfriend my feeling toward him back then… . but i was lucky that i have made the right choice by marrying my husband.

I know we can’t change our past… ‘past is past, its history’…life goes on… hoping to see a wonderful life journey and more more money ahead!

I am passing this tag to …. amy, osindak, ornest, colyn and queen bee.

Last week i had opened an account with Alliance Bank in Inanam, they issued ATM card for that purpose. I had been given an enveloped containing the pin number.. i fold and kept it in my bag for few days, so when i tear the enveloped i can’t read the last digit… oh my! oh me! silly, stupid me. At the same time, my road tax expired yesterday, i really had to renew it today.

Lucky my husband’s off day is today, so he will be my driver because.. i really hate to search for parking…. My niece not feeling well today, she got fever so i let her stay at home. Our first destination, send my son to school, i asked my husband to drop me in my office while he send my daughter to school. At 9.30am, we reached our second destination… the bank in Inanam.. the girl tried to help me recognizing the missing number and with few attempt still can’t get the right number, i ended up paying rm12.00 for a new ATM card… mann… stupid, silly me. My husband was waiting for me in the car and i was in the office for one hour or so… after everything done.. we rush to the next restaurant… wah so hungry.. ordered konomen.. i dont know how to spell that.. lol.. husband ordered kueh teow penang… aya.. should have ordered that one.. look testier than mine.. anyway i finished mine..

I supposed to be back to the office but it was already 11.30 am and there are still unsettled business. Next destination, renew my car insurance in Gaya.. you know its hard to find parking in that area, why can’t they find a good location with more parking space, i am sure there are good Outer Banks rentals somewhere. After we settled with the bank, we headed to Centre Point to get my hp, unfortunately the hp cant be fixed.. there go another story.

I wanted to wait for the insurance so we kill the time doing window shopping, i bought pooh’s colouring books and colour pencil for sean… mmm another collections for him. My husband wanted to buy me lunch but my tummy cant receive any food inside… so he bought me ice cream instead. At 1.30pm, my niece called me that she feel rashes all over her body and feels so itchy… So changed of plan, cant wait for the insurance, we had to go back to fetch her. We bought some fish and vegetables from the wet market before heading home.

Bring my niece to Clinic Malaysia in KK, Doctor gave her medicine and she had to take her blood sample, waited until 4.00 pm. Grab my road tax and insurance policy from the bank and straight fetch Sean and Chrissa whom are anxiously waiting for us. Phewww… my date with my hubby exactly like office hours.

Its been 6 days without my parents and sister… staying in that big house make me feels so tired… My son have been changing clothes 3-4 times a day, he doesn’t want to wear his own clothes instead he wears his cousin’s clothes (Dawson and Daniel). Whenever he played on his own i can hear he mentioned … ‘Daniel!… ultraman’… ‘Dawson…. be careful’ ...i don’t know why but i am sure he missed them a lot.

My Chrissa also have been asking about Bridget, yesterday she heard children’s voice..coming from the neighbour’s house next door… she looked at me ‘mummy… nah ke’ke’ awson, nanel … nah mummy bridget’... oh i wanted to cry but i said.. they are all in Australia. I know she wondered why only us staying in that house, my children keep on asking me ‘where is mama?’, whenever i replied .. ‘Australia’… ‘mama?’, ‘mummyla?’.. they looked very sad.. in my heart sunken.. deeply missed them also.

I am counting the days… plus today, another 3 days to go.. I cannot imagine staying somewhere without my family members by my side. I had to use the blemish acne cream to cover my pimples that keep on popping out.. oh my.

Every night and day i pray for their safety, God’s protection and guidance… sending angels to be with them all the time. Help me and hear me Lord.

Yaahoo!! my pc in the office are know connected with sreamyx and its 80% more fasther than usual, well 10% for the less expected.  My colleague had helped me with all the connection and installing, i’m not sure if he used the CAT6 cable for that purpose but it sure make me happy.

You will see this happy blogger blog hopping more than usual and write post more than before, well it depend on my ideas and assignment.  I see you when i hop hop hop… hehehe.. watch out bloggers… here i come!

My brother had asked my parents to take care of their house even before he and his family left to Adelaide, my parents did a great job looking after the house, my mum even plants vegetables and flowers, she created a small and nice garden.   What a deal, my brother paying, my parents staying, lucky he can postponed but i’m sure if he had alternative he might foreclosure the loan.  

It not even a month after they left now my parents and sister enjoying themselves with the youth all over the world in Brisbane for 10 days, so guess what, i have been given a responsibily to take care of the house.  Not only the big, double storey house but also my sister’s car, my daddy’s car and …. my niece.  I missed my cozy, cute and small apartment, we will alternate our stay.  The best thing is this house located near to our offices and my son’s school but have to send my niece to college in the city.

I had to carry my duties, its my responsibility, thats what we do… help each other but this is a big responsibility.  Without realizing it, i have been checking her ‘where are you?’, ‘what time is your class?’, ‘what time are you coming back?‘ and i even nagged, i sound like my mother sometimes… lol..   I always heard my colleagues called their children at home ’sudah angkat kain?’ ’sudah mandi’?, ‘jangan lupa masak nasi’…. funny because the other day i called my niece saying familliar lines… so i know how it feels to have a teenager around.

Today i had to turned down a fantastic offer… ‘a ticket worth RM500 sponsored by my boss to a palliative care dinner …featuring ABBA (not the original one)  ‘  .. i wanted to go but my niece’s class end at 6.00pm today so i dont want her to go back by bus, its quite late.  Instead of having a fun dinner, i had to go to the city with my two kids but lucky i had my friend Juvi with me, since we are going to the same destination and i need a help to look after daughter, we had a safe journey.  I asked my niece to take a bus to go to Complex Asia City, so I was on my own with my two active kids in Asia City Complex running around the shopping complex, managed to make them sit down, had a drink and eat bun while waiting for my niece…but the best thing.. Sean had to go to the toilet… oh my.. he really had too… so funny if i think about it.  I dont know how to wash Sean when my daugther had to be carried all the time, lucky a good samaritan who was in the toilet talk to Chrissa while i wash Sean… phew…  At about 6.30pm i was so glad my niece managed to find where we were… another safe journey for us.  Its my responsibility so got to do my duty.

It usually excite my children whenever i told them we will be staying at my parent’s house. The first think on their mind was the cat that always waiting to be fed, it belong to nobody it just came their during lunch and dinner time, not sure where the shelter is. It will come to the kitchen sometimes for shelter. We feel bad for we cannot provide a good shelter for the cat. I am thinking to bring the cat to a pet clinic in the city to give it proper care and good shelter.

I came across a website that had an online community which helping pet owners and help pets too. Its a great idea to help us on how to take proper care of pets especially those whom are interested of having pets on their own. They also have different promotions to help pet shelters, they doing a job with a good cause.

I would let my children have pet on their own in the future, it will teach them about loving, caring and responsibility, but i will make sure that they are ready before start having one, its not an easy task.

Chrissa would love to have a cat as her pet and i am sure the cat will be named ‘Barbie’.. exactly… we will see about that.

I will get a dog for Sean as his pet… i hope he wont named it ‘Ultraman’...May be if i move to a new house which have a big area, it wont be a problem to have pets around. It would be chaos but fun and definitely full of love.
