Ken**oh Ken** !

This morning i got YM from the husband ... telling me yang i kena keluarkan cheque baru untuk Ken** sebab dua2 cheque yang i bagi hari tu dah masuk washing machine

Laaa .. mesti si Ken** tak sabar nak ke vacation... sampai tak hengat pun pasal cheque tu... nasib lah ko Ken**.. tunggu ko balik nanti baru ler kami ngantorkan cheque tu... FYI, i beria open that current account semata-mata sebab nak bayar cheque ke dia... Kalau tak selama ni memang rabun2 lah nak pakai2 buku cheque ni... Now pun keep the min balance ajer dalam tu... muahaha!

Honoured Guest

Welcome to a Newly Wedd 'Mr. Mamat d'Postman with his Wife Mrs Norul Aida'. Antara yang dah sudi menjenguk rumah ku seadanya. To my Balong and SIL from Kuching and family. Bukan selalu balik Semenanjung... 2 tahun sekali gamaknya...

My Bangah and K. ngah from Penang- sorry tak dapat entertain ... masa ni saya kerja. And last but not least my MIL and family from Kuantan. Emak , makcik and Amo yang cuma datang sebelum rumah siap.

Just wanna say thanks !!!

Final Payment - deal closed...

Ken** smsed nak vacation ke oberC.. Wah manyak untung ma... katanya Ke China - which part tak perasan pulak i, so, before he go... of course he wants to make sure he will get his final payment from us... After add minus mana yang patut, i pun sainlah cheque... tapi i terpaksa bagi post dated cheque sebab dia tak remind us earlier so, tak dapat nak transfer that amount...

At last, dah final dah our project... but Ken** still owe us one small thing. Katanya this weekend, his worker akan hantar.

Alhamdulillah .. release rasanya! Frankly Kenny is nice and pandai ambik hati kitaorang ni hah... kalau nak marah pun tak jadi. He is a year older than us tapi dah ada good business. Very hardworking guy!

About the payment... it will be settled on 15 Dec ... InsyaAllah! This is the end of our Major Project 2008. After this, we will slow down and take our own time untuk men'survey' our loose furtinure etc. sofa, dining... Minta mahap sesape yang datang ke rumah kami sekarang ni duduk atas tikar ajer ye...

Basically, kami satisfied with what we get... more than that kami bersyukur sebab tiada sebarang masalah besar sepanjang perjalanan selama lebih kurang 3 bulan ini

Thanks to all yang bagi support....

Mattress d' tilam vs pillow!

Last Saturday was our 2nd time bermalam di rumah baru yang serba kekurangan tu... Sepetang tu very bz with our guest... after all left, we all suddenly thought why we still don't have mattress. Since bilik kakak and baby pun dah ready...

So, what happened? ... Jalan-jalan cari tilam lah.. Disebabkan hari yang semakin malam kami redah ajer masuk kedai tilam/ perabot yang ada tulis Getha....http://www.getha.com.my/... wow kunun-kunun lah dapat gak merasa landing ke tilam getha... Memang SA tu ada sebut masa kami masuk ke bahagian Getha...nak carik yang range berapa.. tilam yang saya cuba tu katanya 5k plus ... Sah under estimated gue... biasalah tu kan.. pastu saya jawablah .. 'nak yang biasa2 ajer....!' ohh katanya kalau nak biasa2 ada yang RM399... sah lah tu.. muka selebet cam akak kan... akak pun gelak ajerlah... Then akak kata kalau yang pertengahan tak der ker?

Pastu baru lah ditunjukkan akak tilam King Koil, Dreamland and Dunlop. Dalam kesamaran malam tu akak pun sambarlah tilam King Koil - PUTERA http://www.kingkoil.com.my/prodline_cpcs_p.html. Satu King size and 2 single and dapat free 4 bijik bantal dengan syarat hantar malam tu jugak. Ye ye benar dia kata masih ada stok dan akan hantar pukul 9.30 malam.

But when we all tengah makan, husband got a call. hah takde stok , kena order... bila sampai minggu depan... wooo jahat wooo ... tadi janji beria2. So, untuk malam tu kami cuma dapat that King mattress... kakak dan baby masih takde tilam while boy masih sabar menanti bilik nya disiapkan... bila orang tanya- katanya bilik boy lum siap lagi... kalau lah dia tahu mama dan abah taknak buat pun bilik boy ... sob sob..

Real Grille ....

Ni gambar grill yang dah siap tu... kelakar rupe dia tau... Dari jauh nampak macam kurus-kurus ajer... tapi bila dekat baru lah ada rasa yang lain sikit. Puas hati lah kemas dan cantik. Colour nya pun matching lah dengan penataan kayu di ruang tamu... hahaha. Aku ni buta ID sikit... kakak yang dok pasang langsir tu beria beri idea itu-ini berserta kat mana boleh beli. Semua kedai perabot jati, Nilai 3, Elyza's, vantage... aku pasang telinga aje sambil meng 'hangguk-hangguk' .. tak harap kakak ko ni boleh buat sumer tu !... Kalau boleh buat rumah tu kemas/ tak berselerak/ tak bersepah dengan semua bala tenteranya pun dah cukup bagus...

My MIL is here !

Last weekend, my MIL and the gang bermalam di sini...while we all balik rumah nenek since very bz with the wedding preparation. My MIL said nothin' 'bout the house... such as ' no comments'. Aku pun tak tahu lah... Setakat ni takde apa2 komen pun dari orang2 yang datang melawat/menjenguk/ menengok our new house. Oklah kot...

Today is Friday... Start from semalam, the worker masukkan/pasangkan all the furniture bilik kakak dan baby. At first kami ingat taknak buat dulu bilik kakak tu tapi dia insist nak- nak jugak... macamlah dia berani nak tidur lam bilik tu nanti... sudahnya merengek gak kat bilik kami nanti... sib baik masterbedroom tu masih selesa kalau dimuatkan kesemua keluarga kami seramai 6 orang. My SIL kata bilik tu kecil. ye kot... bilik tu kurus dan panjang... tapi tulah bilik terbesar yang pernah aku ada walaupun dah berpindah randah sebanyak 6 kali. Syukur Alhamdulillah!...

Aku masih berhutang untuk mencari kain langsir... Ukuran dah ambil dan railing dah pasang ...janji nya esok akan kami gagahkan ke Tampin... Aku tak pernah lagi sampai ke Tampin ni. Maybe survey dulu lah kot which one is better kalau dibandingkan dengan Tangkak. Ada orang beli langsir kat Shanghai... tapi tak bagitau. Teringin gak nak kirim ... nak pakai curtain overC. Tomorrow akan ada part pasang 'blind' kat dapur dan glass tinted kat dining dan bilik air...

Actually, aku tak sabar nak test burner baru tu... masa beli kami tak tahu yang kuasa api untuk sesuatu burner tu pun perlu diambilkira... Product yang kami beli tu dari europe/italy which is diorang tak guna api yang kuat untuk memasak. Kalau Asian cooking baru ye...menumis/menggoreng ... huh harap2 takde masalah lah nanti... nampak cam tak sabar bak masak ajer... hehe tong gas pun lum ada lagi.

Officially... no ceremony!

Last saturday, we all decided nak tidur di rumah baru. All day Kak Y*** and husband try to fit the curtain railing track and rod. We choose black track ( which is called - doso ) and the mahagony wooden rod to match. Start from 10.00 am until about 6.00 pm. At last! My children couldn't wait to sleep at our new house. So, i pinjam my mom's old curtain. We also start move in few things which is still in a big-big boxes.

Actually, we had to do it fast and rush because next week my mother -in - law and others will come. Since my mom's house pun dah ramai yang balik for my cousin wedding- so, kena tempatkan they all kat 7MH33. And one more reason is to empty the room which all this while i put all my things...

Very tired indeed, sib baik Ken** did the housekeeping and just smsed us " ... house ready to go in..." Seronok nya sebab tak payah nak mencuci.

And that evening my neighbour approach us... She's and her husband are doctors.. jiran ngan doktor lagi. Very kind and nice doctors - from our first impression...

The thing is , we ( the doctor and i ) are the only Bumi/Malay yang bought that house. Actually we bought the non- Bumi quotas house. Bayangkan all the semi-D are non-Bumi quota. And for Bumis, they build single storey semi-D which is still under constructions. Seeing that i understand why the neighbour is very happy if we move in there... and they really shocked bila tahu yang kami akan ada on weekend only.

I captured so many picture but unluckily my camera (Amo's courtesy) is having problem. Then i snap with husband hp... tak sempat d/load and he's in KL. very sad sebab tak dapat upload gambar kat sini.

Jom Kenal -Part I

My Children - all at our new 'lounge'.... hahaha

Dining Viewing ...w/o mirror!

Dining kami dah kira siap lah tu... cuma tinggal touch-up2 ajer... If u noticed there was no decorative mirror installation been done.. Actually dah kena 'slash' lah tu...

one thing .. . of course 'bout budget, then think again 'bout space. Kalau ada tu harap cantiklah kan ngan lampu bagai tapi space dah kurang...

and i try to fit the IKEA mirror ajer..nampak modern sikit tapi yang 'curve' design tu my bro kata susah nak pasang ... By now, we all slow down dulu lah... pelan2 pi survey... kat kedai perabot jati tu pun tak kurang hebatnya ... a lot of choices dari yang simple hinggalah yang sangat berkerawang... dan berukir.. maklumlah mostly BALI stylo...

Apa kata match kan dengan dining table.... Ye lah good idea tu... supaya nampak setara lah kan ... let's say table set tu modern... we fit the modern design mirror lah kan.. kalau nak yang classic pun samalah .... !!! Apa yang i mengarut ni... but i think there's still one good point there ... thank you so much...

Living in progress...

Sorry for not updating - silent mode... Very busy lately at the office... and i need a break which is today. release sangat! so, i sit down blogging. have prob with notebook at home and streamix too... many things so called in KIV... since then i manage to drop by the workshop. S/thing to do with my kancil... and still gonna keep silence my new car.

Few progress pics of 'lounge' in the making... But i think it's a bit mistake... It couldn't be rectangle in shape! We said nothing about it... just leave it to Ken** ! hahaha...

Happy faces !

Boy brought his bike in my room... while Dhia @ Syira is landed on the newly made Kingsize bed. These all the moment we spend together in the unsettled room. Kids alwiz kids ... look at their happy face make me happy alwiz... Thank You Allah for giving us the precious moment together !

Master bedroom in progress...

First bring in build-in furniture is our bedroom...

Untuk bilik tidur kami pernah diskus untuk pilih perabot putih. So, Ken** masukkan this light colour furniture. Warnanya memang lembut. Tapi kelemahannya ia nampak begitu lembut sehingga rasa tak bermaya. One good thing is bilik nampak lebih spacious. Rasanya we need something untuk bangkitkan suasana. Surely, we all kena pilih curtain yang attractive sedikit.

FYI, i dah cancelled the curtain Acacia 'Venice' yang i agreed with Ken**. One big reason is kain yang di pilih tak ada in stock. Have to wait a month baru sampai. He asked us to replace with another type which is more expensive... and the most important thing the fabric texture is not the same as Acacia.

Someone promise me to get Elyza's look alike furnishing fabrics http://www.elyza.com/

I need some space - bcoz next week is my cousin wedding day!

Kitchen in progress II...

Here comes the granite!... Colour dia ...? i prefer black or dark green but Ken** advice to use that colour sebab dapur tu kecil and our cabinet is dark in colour....

ok ker?... boleh lah kot. i memang fail bab ni.. My sis-in-law boleh ajer pi IKEA sendiri for dry kitchen design. katanya about 4 hours dok design kat IKEA... and boleh pasang sendiri di Seberang Jaya, PP. My bro lah yang pasang tuh... gigih lah depa kan... harap akak ngn husband ... takde maknanya...

Kitchen in progress...

Upload the pictures of kitchen progress !

Give me Lights!

Hi... mengigau agaknya si Ken**. Bila we all sampai lampu dining dipasang di lounge (which is patut nya dipasang ceiling fan)... And at last we found our remote Alpha ceiling fan terpasang kat dalam bilik maid... Waduh- waduh best aaa saper jadik maid nanti ... hehe just joking. Tapi that's only a small room ... mana mungkin kupasang kipas sebesar itu. Lagi pulak entah bila agaknya aku akan ber 'maid'. Daily helper sekarang ni very helpful dan tak banyak masalah! Syukur Alhamdulillah!

So, nampak lah lights and fan dah terpasang...

And here is my truly lights in life - Dhia which is meaning sinaran...!

Alpha Decorative Ceiling Fan

Setelah dipujuk-pujuk oleh Ms L** from Hikari Lighting - we grabbed this decorative ceiling fan from Alpha. I think this fan is doing fine due to the changes of the ceiling design.

Many things in a day!

Normally on Saturday... pepagi dah bawak anak2... walaupun banyak urusan yang nak disettlekan.. anak2 tetap bersama, ye lah.. saper pulak nak take care anak2 kat rumah...

Babysitter pulak nak pi tengok wayang hujung2 minggu ni... (nenek depa lah). Kalau dibanding dia (my mom) dengan i ni .. mmg kalah lah bab menonton di cineplex ni. Sejak kahwin dan ada anak.. boleh kira dgn jari berapa kali tengok wayang... tapi my mom mcm average sebulan sekali.. and last week dia nonton filem Senario... i memang lah tak expose sgt pasal wayang.. sekarang bila anak2 dah besar - selalu je ajak tapi i asked depa join nenek depa.. hahaha

On Friday, Ken** sms nak jumpa on Saturday morning - a few things... i guess one of it surely about payment...

But it's all about curtain material and design. He already choose for living and master bedroom.. and other than that.. leave it to us... cari tailor and pilih kain sendiri... which is more cheaper... Sometimes, tak tahu lah berbaloi ker tidak ... but bila dah start nak kena habiskan lah sekarang ni.. one happy news yang aku dapat ialah before dia pasang all build in furniture, dia akan basuh lantai dah bersihkan cermin tingkap ... Seronok nya aku dengar sebab just cannot imagine camana nak basuh rumah dengan anak2. So, one thing dah clear.

As for last week, stage interor painting dah selesai - so, he asked us untuk beli lampu yang dah delayed 2 weeks... saje taknak pasang awal2 sebab takut jugak grille belum siap lagi.

Actually all the lights Ken** dah pilihkan cuma kita suka atau tidak - boleh tukar.. ada beberapa yang kami tukar - ikut citarasa kami...Ken** takde kat situ boleh lah kami tukar sesuka hati, kalau dia ada ada aje yang tak kena.. so, i think by this week surely start pasang lampu... tak sabar rasanya.

Master and Queniee Place

Our master bedroom... simple kan? Actually, masa ditanya concept apa yang we all nak.. memang saya katakan yang 'simple'.... means modern.. apa2 jelah .. tapi of course bukan yang berkerawang but actually the husband minat juga dengan penataan kayu dan kerawang tu...

So, dapatlah sebiji king size bed... gitu-gitu ajelah.. nothing much!

Ni pulak untuk wardrobe and workstation... what is missing?... perasan tak takde dressing table pun . Kat bilik anak dara i pun ada.. Syian mamanya kan? Anyhow, i cuma taknak bilik tu nampak serabut sangat... yang penting w/station untuk husband. Manalah tahu nanti2 kena kerja remotely dari rumah ...

with/without- Ni ialah plan asal. Mulanya kami bercadang nak buat walk-in closet sama macam rumah kami kat Saudi... tapi Ken** tak setuju. That's why when we hire an ID, we have to listen to their opinions. It's not only opinion actually.. ia adalah sebahagian teori dan fakta...

Sometimes, rasa macam tak bestttt sebab an ID not simply buat apa yang kita nak but dia akan explain do and don't, then only he asked us again what we want with those 'facts'. Pastu pasti kita termakan jugak cakap dia...

Time tu my husband cakap apa tau .. "Awak dah kena jampi ker... ?"

As usual, ada arguments kat situ, i tak minat nak install that partition sebab rasa macam bilik nanti nampak kecil but the husband nak that partition.. i think more on privacy matter. And katanya kalau sepah kat dalam tu tak lah nampak dari luar...

Conclusion for now, i 've deducted it from the quotation... just wanna see the bed and the wordrobe first... kalau rasa ok nanti akak tambah kemudianlah...
