I've finally sold 5 units of my ESOS at the price of 11.90 ( A few hours later the price increase to RM12... uwaaaa!!!). Anyway, I believe that is my share as stated by Allah... so whatever it is, I must feel grateful and thankful to Allah. Ya Allah... forgive me for being so greedy... I'm just a human. Help me Ya Allah... to be a better person...
We've also finally send Rika back to Indon after all the hustle she has caused us. The total of phone bill she owed us is around RM779.15. We woke her up at around 5am last Saturday and asked her to packed her things. Alhamdulillah... she didn't protest or do anything silly (we made sure all the keys were with us). After KLIA, we went to Zita's place and Mak Su's house in Seremban. Later to Angah's place before heading home.
Fazal came on Sunday with his charming wife and daughter. Busy weekend!!

Today is Izzat's first day in Taska... he cried of course... I can't wait to go home to fetch him... Later...

Raya was great! Despite the fact that both hubby and myself do not apply for extra leaves, we did have fun during the short raya break :) The kids had fun meeting their cousins especially Izzaty. The only thing that really upset me was when Izzaty left her Kumon folder and homeworks at Kuala Pilah when everyone else has emptied the kampung house and left for KL. So I had to apply leaves on the next Friday just to pick up her Kumon materials!! On Saturday Pjoy, Zita, Dwen & Nani and Kak Yam's family came over to our place for lunch.. it was not a big thing.. but we had fun! On Sunday Hubby's friends - Zul & family, Naseer & family and Dwen on his own came over for lunch. It was quite a tiring weekend but I enjoyed it. Have not got the chance to meet Na & Saadan this raya..... may be the next weekend..
Yesterday, I got a call from Kak Yam mentioning that Izzaty was left at home alone as Rika has gone out (meeting her boyfriend I presume!). Not only that... I just found out that she has been using our phone up to RM600 for the past 3 months. After discussing with Hubby, we decided to send her home this Saturday for good. Izzaty and Izzat will be send to taska for a meantime.. at least after we got our new maid. I pray to Allah that what we are doing is for the best... for us and the kids....

Raya break was great!!! We had a fabulous time!! Met all my sisters and brother except Na who was in Pilah a few days before raya but had to go back to Kota Tinggi a day before raya. We reached Pilah quite late as hubby had to work until 5pm on the last day of Ramadhan. Since he was tired, I volenteered to drive on the journey to Pilah. An unexpected accident happened on Raya morning right at Subuh time. Induk Putih got herself hurt when she was arranging the all the knives in the kitchen. So I had to send her to hospital early in the morning in my sleeping attire and was stucked there until Aidil Fitri prayer has ended. I joined the rest for the 'salam-salaman' time in my sleeping attire.. hahah. After visiting the uncles and aunts in Pilah, we went back to KL on 2nd raya. Visited MIL and FIL in Cheras... had lunch with them and later went straight home as hubby had to attend a meeting on 3rd Raya at his office. Cooked rendang hijau on 3rd raya but only Kak Eina and family came. And today (4th raya), I'm back in the office... *sigh!*. Well... alhamdulillah, I really enjoyed my raya break! Izzaty had left her Kumon folder at Kuala Pilah and we only realised it after the Pilah home has been vacant!! Sheesh!!! Not sure how when we could go back and get the folder back for her... and her class would be next Monday.... hmmm...

Alhamdulillah... Izzaty is doing quite well in Kumon and make me so proud of her!!! She has been upgraded to level A and now has became the SILVER ASR student. Again I thank Allah for giving me such a charming kids. I pray to Allah that one day Izzat will follow his sister in education performance.
Raya mood has definately begun! It turned out all my sisters and brother are going home to Kuala Pilah for this coming Raya!! It's gonna be real fun to be together at least on the morning of first raya!! I've got everything ready, insyaAllah... kuih raya... baju raya for the kids, hubby and myself.. fresh new notes for duit raya.. and so on. We even got the chance to order new curtains for our living room for the first time after 2 years+ using the old ones :) Not only that, we even ordered new cushion covers for the living room seats... new TV cabinet at the family hall to replace the old one (to avoid our VCD player, Astro decoder and VHS player being spoilt by Izzat).. and new cabinet for our room to replace the one that Izzat always climbed and make everything including the TV and Hi-fi fell down. Hehee... how about that?? And guess what?? Our new curtain will be the same as the ones in Hilton (dunno which Hilton) as Hilton ordered the same material for the hotel's curtain... hehee... interesting eh? But you can't imagine how much I had to pay the tailor for the curtain and the others.... hmmm.... there goes parts of my bonus... $$$$$ :(
We're also in the process of getting a new maid to replace Rika next year. Rika's performance is getting really worst for the past few months. I found out that she's been using our phone calling her boyfriends.. I mean the plural... boyfriendSSSS (Our phone bill in September is RM183 - and mak was not even staying at our home during that month, and RM240 in October). And the process of getting new maid will cost us about 5000+. I've already paid the deposit of RM1500. The rest will be paid after the arrival of the new maid. Hopefully by that time I have already exercise my ESOS and got lotsa bonus from it.... :) Well.... happy fasting and BREAK-fasting :)
