Back to KL

It was a great idea to drive on Monday instead of during the weekend. Traffic was smooth, and we managed to get back to KL before the rush hour started. Now unpacked and about to hit the showers. Anita had made the orders for deliveries. That would be dinner for tonight.

Will be back to clinic tomorrow morning, and the usual mad first day back. Expect some aggravation. And I have a few meetings already lined up ....

For tonight, I would have to get the photographs I took in Penang and my blog in order. Early night of course and going through the emails.

Back to Gombak

The packing was done, and it was time to shift again. Raya would be the day after tomorrow. I plan to spent some time today doing a bit of shopping with Anita. Will then be stopping by at my Mum to see what was going on. Anita and the kids had gone earlier with our driver, and I had to stop at the apartment to bring over some tit bits to bring home as well.

Anita also left for a couple of bags for me to carry home as well as my boys' pillows.

All tidied upBut the balcony needs a mop. The haze was not kind ...And it was hazy today ...Something I wouldn't miss. Idlan's easy room ...

Some shopping needed to be done later in the day, and Anita would be joining me for that. Looked like it was going to be a long day. Hopefully the traffic would be kind ....

Settling In

After moving into the apartment on Monday afternoon, only last night that we managed to get most of the stuff unpacked. We planned to stay here for the rest of the week, before returning to Gombak for Raya. Then we would go away for our Penang trip before returning to the apartment for another week or so, until the school holidays were over.

The boys had been up all night yesterday, and prying them out of their room was a nightmare. We went out for a spot of dinner last night at Pavilion, and that was after some shouting. I suspect Irfan especially had been up at this hour playing with his console. He was stirring when I left for work this morning.

I also planned to get my office in order. A bit of clerical stuffs to catch up here and there. It would be a night in tonight, unless Anita had a different idea.

The unit also needed some plumbing work. On Thursday, a water valve would be installed at our floor to reduce the water pressure. It had been causing a lot of leakage in the last year, and it was about time that the management do something about that. The main bathroom was still without hot water after the last bout of leak, and my maids bathroom also needed fixing. Hopefully all of that could be sorted out while we were in ...

Groceries for the Apartment

The boys had started their school summer break yesterday - which would last for a month. They had been asking about staying at the apartment, and Anita finally yielded. So, for the final week of Ramadan, we would be at the apartment.

Since my mother-in-law was without a maid, we would be loaning ours to her. Therefore, Anita would have to cope at the apartment on her own while I was at work. We decided to sort the groceries out today, so when we moved in tomorrow afternoon, everything should be ready.

Still need unpacking ...A couple of weeks ago, Anita discovered a quiet branch of Mydin near Danau Kota and since then, her mother and her had been there a couple of times. I went along with her today, and she was not joking when she said that the place was quiet. I swore that there were more staffs than customers when we walked in. So, shopping was a breeze indeed, despite this being the final weekend before Eid.

So, everybody were looking forward to the move, even though it would only be for a short while ....

Sleep Over

It was a spontaneous decision. We decided to sleep over at the apartment last night as today would be a public holiday.

Traffic returning home last night was pretty bad and we got caught up again on the was out for dinner. Rather than returning home as it was already late, we went back to the apartment instead.

Idlan got to work with his Lego component straight away, and Irfan enjoyed a movie. I was already asleep in front of the TV soon after we reached the apartment.

I woke up at around 4, and caught the later stages of the Champions League semi-final between Athletico and Chelski. It would be the Madrid derby for the finals.

Back to bed, and again ready for the morning rounds .... Not a bad rest ...
