So much to do, so little time..........

Happiness is an attitude of mind, born of the simple determination to be happy under all outward circumstances.
- J. Donald Wlters

I promise myself, to start every blog with positive quote/s. And I delivered.

So much things had happened since I last blogged.

Both at work and home. I am contemplating of getting a helper – NO! Seriously, I do need help. To vacuum and mop the floor. To clear our ever piling laundry. I wish for an invention of auto clothes folder, hanger whatever……….

I do not prepare dinner now. We’ve got help. Dyna’s ex-nanny is such a great help.

Yes, I must say I still need to sort loads of stuff at home to keep it to it’s minimal, and as neat as it can ever be without help. The other day, I saw Sofea washing the dishes and clean up the sink and silently wish for Ili and Nylie to be as clean and tidy as her when it comes to cleaning up the kitchen or home. Because one day, these tasks will be of great help to them.

Speaking of which, I am so unsure what Ili Nadia is going thru. I was quite disappointed that she broke off with Afiq as he has very much impacted her religiously if not much, Alhamdulillah - a little. I believed positive impact on ones life will always be challenged by the devil. I do not like her to associate herself with people like her ex-boyfriend. Though I do not know him – something tells me that boys like him will always take advantage of girls; it doesn’t matter if she’s strong or not. Sweet talking can even lead girls to insanity – true? Probably. Even have sex with him! Now, I know of someone who did! Because she’s afraid of losing him. Nothing I can do to stop that! I wish I have tried harder.

Now Nylie. She’s in her own world. Everyday she’s ever so enthusiastic to go recital. For Allah or Alif?? Great, tell me what can I do to let both of them see that this is not the right time…..

Anyways, I can only pray for my family to always be protected and be given lights to the right path for only ALLAH knows what’s best for us. Ameen.

Last nite, it was kind of funny Uyop had to ask if we’ve been married for 18 years. Consolation. He remembered the year – 1992. Im impressed! Can you imagine this. After series of dates, 7 “boyfriends”, finally in 1987, I decided on the day I met him – His the one for me. Lucky me, he asked me out first. He told me that he ordered cake for our wedding anniversary – now that’s classic of him.



3 things that made me smile today :
1. Me
2. Dyna enthusiasm in ironing her school uniform
3. Uyop's thoughtfulness
