Woke up with a sorethroat. LOoking grumpy and frumpy. Four empty empty plastic containers. The large ones. Everything inside there is on my floor. Little by little I throw. Some momentos. Some just plain junks. Now part of the bedroom floor is in a mess. I shall leave it till tomorrow. Now getting ready to berbuka luar. Wonder where hubby will take us today. My view Updated : we found our way  to the city center. The road were clear all the way. We passed through jalan masjid india and clear. No traffic.No throngs of people.

Last night before bed I was googling marthastewart.com To inspire me. I want to clean , declutter and organized. Love reading ideas from her website. I used to be so rajin follow her tips Must start again. We will see if I have the mood to organise my bookshelf when I wake up . Hope I dream about minimalism and bangun inspired :) Oh I also checked when I started this blog. Been 5 years!!!

Feeling so inspired

alhamdulillah

First day buka puasa went smoothly.Alhamdulillah After that lil tween had class. So we had to rush off Came back home I had to do dishes and masak for sahur. I do have to cook because lil tween is quite fussy when it comes to food. Berkorban apa saja for my lil tween and daddynya. Well ini baru first week puasa memang rajin anyway. We made a pact actually to not go buy food at pasar ramadhan this ramadhan. We will see how long it will last :) I shall retire now as we have to wake up for sahur nanti. May Allah bless us all with all ibadah we do, insya Allah. Night

first day ramadhan

I didnt hear my alarm clock. Hubby woke me up and said "sahur" "sahur" I quickly jump out of bed. Heat up the food I cooked last night He woke lil tween up and yes luckily sempat bersahur this morning. ALarm clock why didnt you wake me up? Lesson for me. Sleep earlier Waiting for the cleaner to come. Cannot wait for clean house fresh sheets and spick and span shiny floor

Went to browse this cute little containers just now Ikea was packed. I wonder if people raya shopping or what. Here there everywhere people and trolleys everywhere. Ohhh it is their yearly sale. But still the place was crowded. I know what to do with these cute bins. I know where to store them :) So happy Sahur food cooked. Just going to fry some fish when I wake up at 4 am. Please God let me getup at that time. Dont let me snooze the alarm clock Night night now

Last night's dinner

sunday

I must get up and wash laundry.clothes should be dried before the cleaner comes.Yes I am the few who doesnt have a maid. Value our privacy too much to have a maid The cleaner is coming later to wash and clean. But its Sunday . Should sleep in and enjoy our sleep. But no I am up. Made coffee and relaxing drinking it now Going for lunch later with gramps. Sunday lunch before ramadhan. Later tonight will do grocery shopping with hubby. He will go and buy all the wet stuff and me dry. And then after we hang out for coffee. Spring cleaning from yesterday there's still so much to do.

spring cleaning

I saw a garage sale happening somewhere just now That inspired me to clean. So here I am on a Saturday before puasa spring cleaning my room. Ahhh best I love the feeling of tossing things out. Later on will go out with hubby. Continuing cleaning now

friday before ramadhan 2013

Today is friday. I shall go and pamper myself today. Manicure pedicure and a whole body massage probably Yes a girl need to pamper herself once a month. I believe in that saying. Care for yourself first before you can care for your family. If body aching feeling tired you'll definitely feel tired and grumpy to do your daily chores. Have a blessed friday everyone

back home

What a tiring getaway. But satisfied with all the visits and walking around. Hubby said next time we must stay longer. Well its just a getaway before ramadhan begins. I learned so many things about Singapore .Where to eat halal food.How to ride a tram within sentosa compound. How its really tiring to walk and walk in a theme park with a hot weather. We have been to Disneyland Paris so many times in winter we loved the walks in the cold. We have also been to Gold Coast so many times during winter and summer but we prefer winter So the next theme park we go to must be in winter too We prefer to travel during winter because living near the equator we have enough hotness as it is. I have never been to the america's theme park.Would love to go. Must go with people with kids so that my lil tween dont feel so alone. Would also love to go to Japan's theme park as well as Hong Kong. We will see how our budget goes. Upon reaching home hubby straight went to work...he sa

off we go
