Another Year ...Another Chance To Do More .

Dear Bloggy ,

I think I have wished everybody a Happy New Year 2012 but not to myself .

So here's to me ...Cheers . Happy New Year 2012 . Another year ...another chance to do more .

Looking back to year 2011 I did not have a lot of goals . Its more of a  recuperating year . Get my health back ; get my hormones back on track . Reaching 50 years old  is indeed so challenging .
Trying to avoid stress , taking things slow and easy ; no pressure at all . I just did the ordinary daily stuff that needs to be done ...keeping myself occupied ...cooking and sending my children wherever they need to go .

5 years as a home mom ....I have more time with my children  though its not quality time as I hoped it to be . They are teenagers and they have a so call life of their own . On my part  I am learning too to slowly disengage myself from this motherhood heartstrings ...preparing myself mentally and emotionally .

The plus side is I am still able to communicate with my children . Its good . We talked . We argued . Tempers flared . At the end of the day we got back together again as a family . And that this is home . A nest they come home to .

Oh ya . We made a trip to Medan , Indonesia last December . A good way to wind up 2011.  Indeed a fantastic family experience . The memories stick with us far longer than anything we could give the children . This kind of family trips need to do more in the future .

What is in store for 2012 ?

There   is so much I want to learn , see and do  . I want to take better care of myself , make an effort with the way I look both physically and mentally . I would like to  improve my relationship with my God , ALLAH SWT too ..

 I need lots of Good Luck and a determination to keep making each year better than the last .

Till then Bloggy . Hugssss...

The Day

Dear Bloggy ,

Am all alone now . Daughter Yasmin is at school . Son Amir decided to follow suit . He said he has to return some textbooks that belonged to the school . Oh well let me enjoy this me time.

I looked at myself in the mirror this morning . Yep ...50 years old . And I look it . Hahahahaha....I kind of like that person looking back at me .

Oh ya ...needs no reminding but still just for the records of my own timeline...I am a at home mother . 5 years of service at 68 , Bandar Laguna Merbok , Sg Petani , Kedah Darul Aman . I am not complaining or whining nor making a self pity attitude .

Just want to tell you Bloggy ...I don't want to trade in this profession for a work out there . I have things planned and hoped to accomplish this year . 

One thing I need to do right now ....is to fold yesterday's laundry . Of course the cleaning aspect comes along ...yeahhhh my house is a disaster . Its messy .

I must clean .

Bye Bloggy .

New Year 2012

Dear Bloggy ,

A new dawn ... a new day . I woke up and saw a gloomy Sunday morning ..that is 1st January 2012 for you and me . Felt like hitting the sack again but decided not to .

Had breakfast in town with hubby  . Amir and Yasmin were still sound asleep .  I need the time with hubby ...its not that often we could do that . Ya ..we shared the table but both of us were lost in our own world ...both reading the newspaper ; now and then conversing and its back to reading . I guess when you had been together for 25 years ..this song applies " you say the best , when you say nothing at all "..


Nothing  to hurry about today ...doing all tasks at a leisurely phase . Its that point in time when you are still absorbing the fact that its a New Year . Tomorrow should be the day when I am in high gear . The first task is to clean out my so called ' multi purpose room ' where all my books are kept etc etc etc . So many things to be given away and sorted out . The aim is to make that room comfortable again .

Till then Bloggy ,
