A teeny-weeny update....

Tue May 22, 2012

Yup, a teeny-weeny post just so that me would not be thought of as "gone"(?)...hehe....

Frankly, Life has been mostly peaceful and calm...which is good, right?

We have all gone through Life As Is and it's been a hilly, winding and full of ups & downs. Nothing to complain about now that we look back.
I remember clearly one so-called "Tips on how to live Life happily..." which advised one that "if we were to throw our problems on a pile together with problems of other ppl, we would be very happy to take back our very own problems!!!"
How true that is...

Now onto nicer things...

1. Lot 10 celebrated Mother's Day on 13th May this year on a small simple but meaningful scale. Our daughter with her daughter came to share the day with us. Lunch was @KFC in Tesco while dinner was postponed so that these two ole folks could have their moment.
And we did....the next evening @Noodle Station in Tesco! Our "mother" had her wish granted!!

2. Me bought a couple of accessories for our not-so-new ride...a replacement (spare...just in case after hearing of all the thefts of such parts) 3rd party car radio antenna for only RM13.90 @Pacific Hyperstore and a hard-rubber wheel stopper (RM8.90) for safety when me do "things" under the car!

3. We had a 3D2N stay in our fav niece's place in Tanjung Bungah from 15 - 17th May. As always, it was a warm & friendly place to be. Both always felt truly welcomed during each visit. We went kinda empty-handed but we returned home "FULL"!!
Thanks a meg, Amy....for the generous gifts!!

4. Among the best things that had happened this time around is our "Kay Pa's" increase of our pension by 13%!!
It's truly unexpected....but to some, it was expected cos of the impending GE13!!
Anyway, it's a very welcomed increase to our "stagnant" income now with all the inflation & increasing cost of living.
As is, we are now just waiting for the arrears in payment of the difference in pension cos it was backdated to January 2012.
As have always been often quoted, "where to find such money?" True?

Ok...that was a longer post than planned....

Have a nice day! Take care of health always...
