June already?

Where does the time go? We are almost halfway through the year and it feels like time is just zipping past at top speed. What have we been doing...?

Armanee Damansara Damai:
Most of the defects in our unit have been fixed, and what is left is mostly cosmetic. The BIGGEST issue so far is that we still have no electricity - more than 3 weeks after TNB actually installed the meter! So, today, with Husband in SG for work, and me on medical leave and feeling quite shaky and with a fever, I still drove to Armanee and had a nice to-do with the customer service people. It turns out that the cables, in the TNB cabinet on the 11th floor where our unit is, have been stolen. Man, I was so ANGRY - called their lawyer, who in turn called the Ops Director of MK Land, who in turn called the cust service and set a fire under them. They have committed to getting all defects rectified and electricity done within the next two weeks. Well, I shall believe it when it happens. The sad thing is that with JUST a little bit more effort on the part of MK Land this place could be absolutely beautiful!! And then they would be in a situation where the current owners (ie, people like us) would pass the word around to other potential buyers. As it is, unless they get their act together fast there is not much chance of that happening!

Mont'Kiara Pines:
Husband finished painting and doing up the place about 3 weeks ago, and we finally managed to get all our pots, pans, and other sundry barang-barang out of the place and stored away in our PJ house. Handed over a set of keys to a real estate agent recommended by an old friend of mine, and we are open to either sale or rent. Let's see how it goes - wish us luck either way.

PJ House:
Pretty much stored everything away - it is amazing how much unutilised space there actually was in the kitchen, even with all my Mum's stuff there! It is nice to be staying here, when Husband is in SG, especially on those days like yesterday and today where I feel so sick and shaky - as it is nice to know that I am not alone at home :-) Bishop and priest here for lunch today(!) so I had early lunch, as soon as I got home from Armanee, and am now upstairs doing this blog, to be followed by a snooze to see if I can get rid of my headache.

Work has been pretty busy lately - with a new project coming up, with existing customers to keep in touch with, trips to SG for meetings (yes, me too!!), trips to Penang for meetings, etc, etc, etc. Husband and I have been talking about my quitting, so that I can go with him every week to and from SG, but we haven't really made any decision yet. Told my boss I would like to quit and he has been doing his best to talk me out of it! Decision is on hold for the next few months. Like I told husband, if we had decided last week, I only had to give 1 weeks notice, as I was still on probation... but now I have to give ONE MONTHS notice!

One of my old friends is in town - we met up with him last week in SG, and then again in KL on Sunday - took him all over the place, to Mont'Kiara, Armanee, and then to PJ, so he got a 'good' start to his week :-) (I hope we didn't tire you out too much Michael O!). He's trying to decide on whether he wants to move to this part of the world as his "base" - and I told him that whether it is in KL or SG, both Husband and I will be really happy to have him in our part of the world. Good friends are hard to find, and when you do find them it is hard when they have to leave, so it is GREAT if they are in the same part of the world (get the message MO?)

Anyway, time to sign off for now... head is pounding a lot and it doesnt help really to be looking at the computer screen :-p

Till next time, have a GREAT life.
