Weekend Monday..

It's Monday and we are having extra holiday because of Maulidur-Rasul. The past week was tiring, and the last two days were even more tiring. I woke up at 4 am to do some work, left some data in the office and dunno what to do with the rest. As usual, I am the kind of putting in less effort when the work loads up, unless I have very good reason to keep going. I put off writing for the past days because of the short working time I was having and the important meeting on last Friday. It turned up well, and we gonna get the invoices amounting to RM400K this year. Although it is not my money, the feeling of getting it done was amazing. The only left was to show them the list. The list. I have to produce the list by April, next meeting.

While my project is in a stand-still mode, I did follow through the data project. Not much to my satisfaction, as the team will be going out next week for site. I gave them short schedule and to be back by Friday for another project work. Sounds that I will be tied to the lab next week, while trying to squeeze in the database work. I should get a freelance coder to do that instead. Thinking about freelance work, DH told me that the Uniten's new Energy Economics section at the main campus is asking new project proposal and he is gonna submit two proposals for them. Good for him, I put in several ads on his work as freelance economist should the contract ended as we expected.

Some exciting things about the kids. Nabilah flooded the kitchen on Thursday which made me furious and cried looking at the amount of disaster she made. To top it up, Najihah's itchiness was totally unbearable for me as she asked me to scratch her back after flooding the hallway. Thursday was flood day in this house. That night, I folded overloaded laundry basket for after-Penang-trip clothes, could not do any 'intelligent' work anymore.

Liza's wedding reception on Sunday at Kajang's Village View was cool. That was my first time attending wedding reception at a local restaurant. You can actually say it was a lunch reception instead of wedding reception. Tomyam, ayam bakar bungkus and kailan ikan masin were among delicacies served for the guest. We had full plate of ayam 'bungkus' of which DH took for us and I had to finish them off. The kids enjoyed carps in the pond with hanging bridge. Lucky that I forgo my cousin's wedding at Keramat (I really dislike to see them at this point of time) which most probably the normal tepung tawar event.

Sometimes we have to make choices, and I know I made the right one last week.
