Yup, a little "noise" from muah. A few sounds to indicate that me am still here. Ha ha!
For one thing, our mission to renew our driving licences on Sun 221109 was successful and a breeze. There was hardly any crowd. The car park was practically almost empty. We were the third to be called after getting the queue ticket number. The only problem we had was finding the correct building block where driving licence renewals could be done. It had changed from Block B to Block C...with the old signboards still unchanged!
Well, for another thing, that day was wet but just a slight drizzle. However, that might have reduced the number of ppl at JPJ then. Our licences were renewed for 3 years @RM30 per year. I had almost wanted to renew them for 5 years but I couldn't help wondering if it would be a waste of good $$$ or not...and yup, would lil ole me still be able to drive after 3 years...after 2012?
And, believe it or not, the info re our renewals were also promptly included in our MyKad chip! Efficient. Kudos to JPJ!
Btw Cine Nite on last Sat was the movie entitled "My Sister's Keeper". A good story. Touching, too. If only we could be just as brave when facing inevitable death as the sister was in the movie...
Anyway, life @ Lot 10 is more or less routine these days. No more stress...hopefully that would last. And if so, we should be enjoying ourselves soon at the coming wedding dinner of 1 of our nieces on Dec 4th in Penang. Both are looking forward to meeting ppl whom we had not met nor talked to for quite some time. And yup, it's at such venues & occasions, so called "red" or "white" events, that we do get to meet & update ourselves on respective family information. And, of course, enjoy one another's company.
Last but not least, we'd been trying to improve our "bedding" environment for some time now...another item on our "To Do" list. Our 1st attempt failed during a bed & mattress promo of a locally renowned brand. We were then even willing to give up our old but still good bed set! Our 2nd attempt at a reasonably big furniture company also failed...nothing happened after more than a month now. A few returned calls but then silence.
Our latest attempt was at a mattress promo of the same mattress brand as the one we have now. We confirmed our order & left my contact hp number with our home address. It's now the 2nd day after the salesperson promised to call us to confirm delivery. Not even a tinkle. So it looks like there's something blocking this aspect of our life. Call it fate, destiny or whatever...
No worries, though. As in what I've heard many times quoted...
"One may have a bed but not sleep..."OR
"it's not the bed but the sleep that is important."True? I believe so. What say you?
Today started as a hot sunny day. Sincerely hope that it remains so as it had been raining for the past few days.
Have a good week, ok? Be safe in the meantime.
