Weekend Updates

This weekend is the last week before Hari Raya. It is now officially two days before raya. I've been sick last week with recurring flu and coughing and phlegm. The weekend haven't done me any good either except that I'd taken the flu tablet with the cough syrup simultaneously last night and slept the whole night from 10pm, waking up for sahur (groggily) around 4.50pm and went to sleep again till 9 in the morning. That's almost 24 hours of sleeping under the influence, and I'm still no better today. My throat's still sore and it feels like I've torn a muscle or something inside my throat. Or maybe I'm developing a tonsil, I dunno. What a bugger. My head's aching cause I've been coughing my head off. I've tried the cough syrup, warm water and honey. Nothing works. But then again, I didn't reduce my intake of cold water...*sigh* no wonder I didn't get any better....Oh well, gonna take the cough syrup again before bed tonight and see what happens tomorrow.

Also, I bathed the three kitties this morning. Surprisingly, they were quiet but squirmed and clawed me a bit when I shampooed and showered them with warm water. Been meaning to bathe them kitties for weeks but couldn't find the time. They've ticks and the best I could do was spray them with tick spray. Didn't see much improvement and I think bathing is more effective. So I'm quite satisfied that I'd managed to bathe the kitties today.

In the afternoon, we went for house hunting in Shah Alam this afternoon. I'd narrowed down a few choices for my hubby to look at, seeing that he will be starting a new job in Shah Alam and my office will be moving to Putrajaya in 2010. We'd thought Shah Alam would be a good place to settle down.

We had rice and fried chicken and leftover dhall from my mum's for breaking of fast. I had maggi curry - been craving for maggi since beginning of Ramadhan. Then we ate some of the lovely choc chip cookies that my hubby bought for raya and intend to bring back to Batu Pahat. The jar's now half full and I told him to forget about bringing it back.

After breaking fast, started making the meat pies that my mom asked me to do and sell as frozen food. Still in production and experiment stage on the shape and taste. Personally, I like my chicken pies better with puff pastry and white gravy, perfect ingredients for a chicken pot pie or gourmet pie in Secret Recipe. Wait for the development of the pies:)

Finally to end the day, I have to do my laundry for the whole week! Hubby just turn on the washing machine, though I'd asked him to do so earlier today. I'd to wait for him cause I couldn't screw on the water pipe myself. So, now I'm surfing and trying to stay awake while waiting for 4 loads of washing is done....*sigh*
