Pre-Raya Errands for Anita

Puan Anita has had a busy last couple of days where she had to do the pre-rays errands. Staying at the apartment meant that she can't leave the kids at home while she went out. She was worried that the maid couldn't cope. Therefore, going out during the day meant that she would have the kids in tow. Even with a driver, it was a pain.

So, she was out the last couple of days, and managed to finally shop for herself. The Raya cards were also sorted, and finally, the change for suit Raya was done this morning. Most of the bank teller had run out of small change by afternoon, so she had to go early.

Since Idlan was at the Quran school in Gombak, Anita and the gang were back home, leaving me for iftar alone at the apartment since I was on call. They would be back later this evening, but I would be out for my evening rounds already by then. If I was lucky, I might be able to get back home by midnight ……

It's Raya Cards Time

I must confess that I have been slacking this year. I usually get my Raya Cards sorted out by the end of the first Ramadhan weekend. This time around, it was coming up to the third, and I only just begun writing them.

The cards from Sunflower were gorgeous as usual. So, I spent the best part of the morning writing up them cards, while emailing some of my cousins for their updated addresses. Finally got the 50 or so cards written up. That warm and fuzzy feeling came back in the pit of my stomach right after.

Now, I would have to drag myself to the Post Office.
