my hubby had his another sales (beside brownie and cheesecake) - nasi lemak with ginger fried chicken at $1.50 per packet for nightshift workers. and last wednesday, the 7th, my hubby received his first order of nasi lemak. with number of packets prepared and ready for delivery, we left home at about 9pm heading towards tuas. somehow, HE decided to stop us from reaching our destination. the car battery went flat in the middle of the tuas highway. it was dark with few cars drove by. my hubby had to call all his customers to apologize coz it seemed they won't be receiving their order that night. my hubby felt bad about it but it was really beyond our control. lucky for us they understood the situation and didn't press for anything. while waiting for the tow-truck, one nice stranger stopped and offered help but we told him that the tow-truck was already on the way. and what happened to the packets of nasi lemak? well, we couldn't bring them back...who gonna eat them all? there was this factory nearby the road and a group of indian foreign workers were standing there watching us, and my hubby and i decided that maybe (in view of deepavali), the food was actually meant for them. one of them jumped over the fence, down the slope in his sarong after seeing my hubby waving his hand and calling them. my hubby handed him the box full of our nasi lemak packets and told him to distribute them to his friends. he asked my hubby how many packets, he smiled later and said, "that's just enough for each of us". he said thank you and went back to his friends who were waiting. we saw everyone took a packet each.
looking at my hubby smiling, i agreed with him that maybe GOD had brought us there with the food. i guess we did cook for them. it is deepavali anyway. we both are strong believers of qadak and qadar. and we trust HIM with all HIS secrets.
and for our presea...my hubby and i felt so sad watching him being towed away. we managed to take few pictures of him when the tow-truck driver dropped us somewhere in choa chu kang. he's been with with the family for many years and he's like our own baby. only GOD knows how we really felt watching him looking like that. we felt the pain like any parent would feel for his own child. i hope they take good care of him and we can take him home soon. we miss him dearly...

today i witnessed the best wedding ever. it's so full of happiness...very the lively. the groom arrived with his kuda kepang warriors, accompanied with the roar from kompang and gamilan. the warriors led the groom to meet his bride with awesome dance steps. it was a beautiful wedding with huge number of guests just kept flowing in to share the joyful occassion. even my hubby had to agree it was the best wedding he ever attended. it's not because of the banquet or comfortable seats, but it was the warmth that we felt.
and they both deserve the title 'couple of the year', don't you think? siti looked so pretty.her smile could tell how happy she was. and i'm so very happy for her.
selamat pengantin baru beb!!!

today, my mom made it through yet another therapy. after her fluidotherapy and message, she had this gadget thingy fixed on her hand. it helped to gently bend and stretch her fingers. initially the process was quite a torture and my mom started to have teary eyes, but after a while she found it soothing.
today's therapy lasted for nearly two hours. but every minute was worth spent.

now my pooh precious moments is complete :pbut what i wish to talk about here is not about them (although i lurv them so very much...). it's the seller to whom i should dedicate this post to.
all the three figurines are from the same seller. i like dealing with him coz he's a very trusting and accommodating person. can u believe that yesterday he sent me both eeyore and tigger although i only have enough to pay for eeyore? his thoughtfulness is so touching. he knows how much a complete set meant for a collector. and although i can only pay him next month for tigger, he still brought him along together with eeyore. and i'm not talking about $10 or $20. all precious moments collectors know its value, so they will understand how grateful i am to meet this wonderful person.
i find myself lucky to have this awesome deal coz next year i won't have the luxury for such beautiful figurines anymore. i have to focus on my eldest girl's education needs, and that means extra dollars for her private tutors.
thank you, thomas :o)
you made my day
