Rumah Cantik

Wahhh so long me never blog.

 

Life have been busy lately. Alhamdulllah keeping busy have kept me reasonably sane.

 

Am on half a day today, little cousin getting engaged tomorrow but the kecohnes macam anak nak nikah. Sedara dari hujang sana sampai ker hujung situ dijemput. Excited Mak.  I can imagine kalau dah nak kawin macam mana. Planning to be married in November 2016 and they have mostly finalise all the vendors.

 

Same goes to my little Sissy. Planning to be married next year May 2015 but she have settled all the vendors, Berkat kotak pun dah sampai rumah. The second sis commented 'Na, you nak kawin bulan depan ker?'

 

Vendors mostly dah booked. Cincin dah beli, rantai dah beli, gelang dah beli... Aiyo... I remember during my time, siang malam ajar tuition to get extra money. S, masuk OT most of the time nak bayar duit khemah... I remember mine dah nak satu bulan nak kawin baru lah mampu beli cincin kawin

The little sis, is the obedient one who listened, when Datin say no credit card, she listen. Is there any gold mine kat Hougang and Woodland they we are not aware off. Rabak tak share!!!

 

I am actually waiting till 1pm so that I can ciow. No mood liow. Just a while ago I stumbled upon this.

 

I kept scrolling down with ohhhh and ahhhhhh and when I think of my home, I sigh. 

 

I whatsapp S the the pictures and his reply was 'Tak bersyukur eh???!!!???'

 

 

Bersyukur, but when you see my kitchen you will definitely asked 'How do you cook in here?' There is limited space, I don't even have a place to put a microwave. We just placed it atas fridge. I need a stool when ever I need to use it.

 

I am obsessed with pintrist especially the home decor category. But sometime tak realistic. Rumah Singapore ni macam pigeon hole.

Long holiday coming...

Oh what did I do to the template....

Ok Lulu, After chinese new year... You will be as beautiful as before. I'm trying to tweak on some HTML code. 

All this tweaking of codes brought back bitter sweet memories in the programming class many many years back. 

Ahhh talking about CNY, I can't wait for the longggg holiday, the whole of the family and the kunchus kunchus will be going to batam for a short Staycation. And the S's family? We are basically stuck in 'all shop close during CNY' Singapore. S could not take leave and I feel bad leaving him behind, while I enjoy enjoy Jump jump dalam swimming pool at some hotel in Batam. Laki at home makan roti. 

So last night while chilling, I made a to do list.... 

1. Change bed sheet MBR and Ny's room.

2. Clean all the art work by the little artist on the cabinet.

3. Re-organize the wardrobe, colour code the baju.

4. Re-organize shawl collection yang now Dah mcm spider web. Lintang pukang, main selet jer.

5. Change the pest sheet for kitchen cabinet.

6. Re-organize Ny's wardrobe. Put away all baju yang dah toooo 'sexy' (so sayang, some of her dresses only worn twice dah ketat)

7. Take out the Photo printer And update the Photo frames.

8. Start sewing the hari raya curtain.

9. Do inventory for Ny And Lu Stuffs 

10. Brain storm some new Stuffs for Ny And Lu.

I read out my list out loud for S. 

He replied 'Chinese New year ni brapa hari holiday? 3 days or 3 weeks.....? I bet, by end of CNY none will be done....'

Eh... Eh.....

Clean Freak

Growing up with a full time stay at home mum and sis most of his life, S never lifted a finger to cook, clean, wash or iron. I don't think he has even pick up the broom or vacuum and I am sure his room was always spotless clean. S developed a high standard where cleanliness was concerned and grew up into an obsessive compulsive adult. That can cekek my darah.

And sadly to say, he married one of Singapore top 10 messiest and kempro-est person. I used to have a motto for my single life room, 'Bilik yang berserak itu menunjukkan seni yang indah' my mum would reply 'Seni kepala hotok kau!!!'

S could not see any clothes hanging behind the door, he would say'If its dirty wash it, if its clean, iron and hang it back into the closet'. Senang lah cakap, I yang cuci. 

 

He could not stand belengas flooring, the toilet have to be descaled, floor to be mop, kitchen sink to be scrub. He didnt instruct  me, tak pernah perintah, but from his body language and the way he moves, I know his tapak kaki could not accept the condition on the flooring.... I will then buat bodoh and action tak nampak....

 

I used to get pissed when I chill on the sofa, while watching TV and folding the clothes and S would kelentang kelentung in the kitchen. I tell you my blood would confirm naik one. I feel like I am taking a backseat and he is doing all the chores. Goodness me, he is staying with  a kid who always wants to drink on her own. The drink will most of the time ends on the floor rather then down her throat and a wife who bila makan goreng pisang, kerak will confirm terjatuh on the carpet, even though I try to tadah with my hand bila makan that goreng pisang.

He was relaxing one day when I ask 'Nyla ni ikut sapa ni.. friendly sangat' S would say, 'I hope her cleanliness will follow me' I was hurt, seriously, I am working 9 to 6pm and I have to cook and fecth Nyla, where can I find the time to mop and vacuum the house everyday.

And because of the cooking and cleaning, we often fetch Ny late and she will almost everyday slept at 12-1am.  He knows I was upset, he promise to mellow a little of his OCDness...

 

Last week, we were playing play doh. Ny got a few boxes of playdoh for her birthdays. Mak lagi excited dari anak.... and I was pretty surprise that he was not anal about the sticky playdoh... no not anal at all. Infact he made one kick ass playdoh ice cream sundae that look so real, that make the real ice cream sundae look pathetic. Ny was 'wow'ing here and there. There were playdoh all around, that small irritating bits here and there on the carpet. But to hell with that, we had fun. We make lots of ice cream and cupcakes.

 

At the end of the day, I will remind him that there is more to a home than a clean house.

p/s: Kalau nak 24 jam rumah bersih,  balik rumah Blk 230 (his mum's place) >.<

We love birthdays and mummy will go all the extra mile to make sure all are executed well.

I ask S to gel and style the kids hair.. and everybody fell in love...

mak bapak kemaruk amik gambar anak yang rambut dah smart....

Baby Shaila wearing adorable headband crown by Ny and Lu.

 Both the bapaks and all the mummies had a blast.

And someone got really thirsty and try to drink directly from the source.

And at 11pm, we close shop... semua KO

Sometime I thinks that I am wonderwoman and sleeping at 4am on a working day just to make bows for my favourite gentlemen. But seeing the end result... totally worth it. Bows by Ny and Lu.

What a strange blog name

I think long and hard... even listed a few cool prospective candidates name for the blog.

But this name keep coming up.

 

If you have read my previous blog, Parc lulu is a name I called my home, my love nest.

No, N is not made in LuLu. But I've got LuLu, while N is still in my tummy. Its one of the many blessing we received while N was still inside me.

 

We were in the waiting list for LuLu for the longest time. LuLu was so close to my MIL house that when ever we pass by we would SIGH.... Yes both the laki and the bini would just stop and look and sigh.

 

I remember vividly the night when the BTO results for Tampines green leaves were announce. S was so so sure that we can get a unit. So imagine our disappointment when we open the HDB website and say, 'We are sorry to bla bla bla.....' He shut down the MAC and force me to sleep. It was 8pm for goodness sake.

The very next day, S received a call from an Orange Tee agent, informing us that there was an available unit if we are interested in.

To make the long story short, we paid the deposit, sign the papers and in 3 months time we move in. The renovation and the decoration of LuLu was all done during my maternity leave. Leaves well spent I might say.

So now I have two LuLus. Yeay...

I need to create another blog coz I could no longer upload pictures to the ol one, Blithy, I call her blithy. And it breaks my heart to change the templates and delete all the pictures.

So here to LuLu, hope you'll be as warm as the other LuLu.
