Phewww.....Year Of The Rat - 2008

Never underestimate proverbs, e.g., 'Time Flies' ... literally it just means that !!!

Has been months since my last posting - what with streamyx giving problems and most of all my impatience at the 'wait' time.

Had my house's roof tiles replaced, painted the external walls beige, had the 'garden' levelled up and japanese grass re-planted, re-located the TV 'station' and my living hall seating arrangement re-arranged. Whew.... lots to take on and hopefully this change of 'feng shui' will 'assist' in the selling of the house !!! If not than at least I can continue to stay here harmoniously and peacefully without the old man bringing back negative energy !!!

My kuai lui returned from the States and all in all we've got together for less than 5 times. Just imagine that !! Got my 'Coach' handbag from Bee and a wristlet from Larry as birthday presents...wah... seed pun lor... hehehehe.... My kuai lui gave me a a miniature set of cartier perfumes - very nice and thoughtful of her. As for my kuai chai... well, he took leave on my birthday which was a huge surprise to me to have lunch with me. In the end, we went to the 'Gardens' at Mid-Valley together with Bee and Bel. Had Thai food which was so so lah... nothing exciting.

Bee left earlier for a dinner appointment with her Honkie friends. So the 3 of us went for a chinese movie ... forgotten the name now - aiy getting old. After the movie, we went to Chilli and bought supper for poh poh - Tequila fish or something. Kuai chai 'belanja' the movie and meals... fatt dat liao...

My brother-in-law, Ah Lek (E-Ko's hubby) went to China to have the kidney transplant just before CNY. Op was successful and they came back on Feb 11, 2008 (5th Day CNY) but was admitted to SJMC on Feb 13 as the stitches came off !!! OM 'invited' me to visit him on Feb 14 (Valentine's Day... how cute of him...) - apparently, Ah Lek 'took leave' from SJMC to pray to Ti Kong (9th Day CNY) and after the prayers @ midnight will be 're-admitted'. Pray, he recovers soon. Lots of scary stories I heard about the kidney transplant in China.

Had reunion dinner at my house and I gave Rahimah the sharks fins and fish maw to cook. Wah... this year I was short on the 'any-paus' man !!! Have to rush upstairs to replenish ... hehehehe... Did not get any any-pau packets this year until Bee gave me some (from Kwan Inn Teng) on the 4th day of CNY. Still received well-wishes from lots of friends...very grateful I have these good karmic affinities !! Sadhu, Sadhu, Sadhu.

First Day of CNY (Feb 7, 2008) went to Banting like a long lost child.... All of 16 years since I last visited !! Siblings and cousins treated me like a 'guest-of-honour' - which they said so too !!! Hahahahaha.... Had lunch and definitely dinner which is our Cantonese custom. Lots of changes in Banting though. Can't really recognise the place now. From Banting went to Bukit Tinggi to gave mom-in-law her 'hamper' - forgot to gave her the night before. OM left for Klang @ 11.00 pm and came back around 5.00 am.

Second Day of CNY (married daughters to visit maternal family) - thought the OM will give me problems as usual but surprisingly he woke up early !! Oops .. actually I forgot that he was hoping to visit Aunty early and then can go down early to be with his slut. Anyway, as the day wore on ... his face was getting blacker !!! Sent Kathy back and also took the opportunity to see how to tie the 6 bronze coins to ward off negative energies for all south facing house this year !!! Reached home almost 8.30 pm and the OM took his bath and rush off.

Oh... I am very happy that I now know what are butter-lamps !! I just love the smell ... hehehe....

Just knew 2 days ago that my ex-colleagues will 'Lo Sang' with me this Saturday (Feb 16, 2008 & 10th Day). My kai chai will also help me to buy my tea-lights and will fei his gf and have dinner with me. Very, very kuai ... no regrets having this kai chai ... hahahahaha....

Today finally sent off the email to a Ms. Barbara regarding the Parenting Workshop for Kinrara Metta Buddhist Society. Hope to receive her reply soon on the meeting-up.

Lots to write but have forgotten most of it. Ken just told me that he's upgrading the streamyx and I hope the connection will be much better.

I think I need to buy a printer ...
