Putih

Bunga lagi? Simply because looking at them makes me happy.

Obviously life has been hectic. Work-life is not balanced. I need a break. But then again, more deadlines are coming. Phewww.

Manage, maintain the composure. Back to the Creator, to the nature and to what matter in my life; my loved ones.

Alhamdulillah.

Kungfu Panda-bu

This panda-eyed-ibu did lots of kungfu-ing during the weekend. Had a packed family-fun-Saturday with the kids and husband; began the day with breakfast at one of the stalls by the roadside, went to visit my BFF and her newborn baby at PCMC and later, to Aquaria. The kids had so much fun :)

Started the day (today) with an aquarium-cleaning lesson by the husband. Hehe I don't think I can remember all but yeah, I will find my way should the fish(es) need 'new-air' later. Then, we took off to Serdang for ayah's treatment. I managed to make a quick visit at Noran and Wafa's crib. RA.UF needed a diaper-change. It is just not safe to handle two kids at the toilet at petrol station, alone. Later, went back to Salak Tinggi for lunch. We only reached home at 5-ish pm. Pheww. Had to send the kids at the grandparents' house to give way to my weekend-routine; the floor job. Haha! At least the floor is clean, and I am a happy mom ;p

My weekend ended with Mee Kungfu from my very own kitchen, for dinner. Invited my parents to come over and join us. Its one of mama's favourite dishes! *proud*

P/s: Hi there, Monday! May all is well at work tomorrow. Insyaallah. Assalamualaikum :)

Ba-wau-nga-bunga

Salam Jumaat.

Pokok bunga terawal singgah di laman. Masa beli, memang sudah lebat berbunga. Kali ni, kali pertama berbunga sejak tuan tanah ambil alih.

Senyum :) Alhamdulillah.

Bunga kita :)

Suami ke Sg Buloh awal pagi tadi; kehabisan stok tanah hitam. Mati pula rumput-rumput dalam polibeg kalau proses penanaman ditunda lagi.

Isteri kirim pokok bunga ros. Lama mengidam. Sebelum ni ragu-ragu; boleh hidup ke ros tu nanti. Perhatian utama mestilah pada empunya punggung kecil saiz XXL dan L. Ke sana sini ibu turutkan :D

Kisahnya suami bawa pulang satu pasu ros berisi 2 pokok; 2 warna. Kuning dan merah. Senyum. Awak macam baca fikiran saya. Itu warna kita. Simbolik sejarah kita; Zul dan Fiza, Musytari dan Zuhal. Aduh, senyum sendiri dibuatnya. 6 bulan lagi usia perkenalan 2 insan dari Selangor ini cukup 12 tahun. Suka duka berkasih, berumah-tangga, beranak-pinak; dari berdua sekarang dah berempat :) Alhamdulillah, Alhamdulillah, Alhamdulillah.

Cikgu, kami masih bersama. Mungkin disebalik kata-kata pedas cikgu dulu jadi doa yang baik untuk kami. Terima kasih.

Tumbuh dengan sihat dan berseri ya bunga. Untung-untung boleh disemai dan dibiakkan benihnya. Boleh bagi kawan-kawan rumah Zuhal dan Musytari yang lain? Hehe kidding.

P/s: DUKHMILU ZI? Muah!

Pictures To Help You Restore Your Faith In Humanity

A good reflection, to start the day!

 

If you never learn the language of gratitude, you will never be on speaking terms with happiness.     A father and mother kissing their dying little girl goodbye. If you are wondering why all the medic people are bowing: in less than an hour, two small children in the next room are able to live thanks to the little girl's kidney and liver.

 

Trafik

@DUKE-Semarak exit.

Hari ni keluar lambat. Dapat info from parents pagi tadi dalam pukul 5 lebih, ada lori terbalik antara Rawang-Hospital Sg Buloh. Pukul 8, trafik update di Hot.fm sahkan trafik masih sesak.

Keluar rumah pukul 7.30 pagi. Pilih untuk ikut Ulu Yam ke KL. Seronok laluan penuh kehijauan :)

Ok gak keluar lambat macam ni. Boleh juga tengok matahari di BB :)

P/s: hari kedua tanpa FB

Saturday the 8th

Arrived home from PIL's place at 2pm. Inspired to bake as I read through a blog post by a friend last night. My first attempt; bread pudding. Thank you for sharing Yuni! Dapat bagi sikit to RAUF's babysitter. Husband kata sedap. Tapi chef tak lalu nak makan beriya. Pulak? Padahal menu wajib jamah if lunch di hotel.

Cooked spaghetti for the family. Flattered, baba and mama came over on their way back from Melaka. Seronok dapat jamu parents makanan yang kita masak :) simple menu for my family of 4. Kena ada carrot, umpan for RAZ to ate some. If not makan junk food je -_-'

P/s: Happy Birthday to SIL. Semoga cepat dapat baby. Maklong rindu nak pegang newborn lah.

Hard-cooking

Simple dish @ 11pm. Sambal berlada ikan bilis and scrambled egg. At least husband can reheat for his breakfast/lunch tomorrow. And wife can work peacefully, not being shadowed by a foe named guilt.

I find myself managing cooking utensil and ingredients more often these couple of days. Yes, I am trying to make everyone happy.

Had a packed day at work. Alas, did not take proper food since morning (4th Sept). Where has my appetite gone? Despite the absence of food, I did not feel hungry until now.

Reached home late. Left the office at 5pm actually but I was too sleepy to drive. Stopped at RNR Rawang and dozed off for almost an hour. Pathetic eh? Rest area/ lay bay along the highway is my second bed. I rather stop for a quick nap than risking myself on the road. By the time I arrived, it was already dark. The kids were picked up by my parents.

And here I am, babysitting the kids. Shouldn't you be sleeping already, young ones?

P/s: took Habatussauda for almost a month now. Alhamdulillah, I don't feel as tiring as before :)

Satisfaction

Am on emergency leave today. The house has been in a mess for quite a while. My goodness, I almost caught in stress. I think fellow working mothers would get me; how we feel about juggling between managing kids & husband, work, and never-ending-house chores!

So today, I managed to buy some time for simple-brunch, mopping the floor and laundry. Now I can smile again :)

P/s: Missing my young ones. Hope you behave well kids. Ibu loves you both...let's pray for ayah's recovery. Insyaallah.

Wardah Merah

Hati terubat setiap kali pandangan mata singgah di pagar laman. Indah ciptaanMu. Sedikit sebanyak buat hati ini jadi tenang.

Alhamdulillah. Usaha si buahati sudah nampak hasil, walau daunnya enak dijamah serangga. Alhamdulillah. Daripada tanah kering penuh berbatu, hamparan ini kian subur. Menjadi punca kehidupan untuk flora dan fauna, merantai satu lagi circle of life. Besar nikmat sang Pencipta.

Alhamdulillah. Tumbuhmu kegembiraan si dia. Kegembiraan si dia adalah kebagiaanku.

Susah hati

Dugaan...Allah tak uji di luar kemampuan hambaNya. Kita dipilih untuk ujian ini.

Bertahanlah. Sekuat makna nama kita. Sungguh kau Zulfadhli (yang mempunyai kelebihaan/keistimewaan) dan aku cahaya yang memelihara-nya (Nurhafiza). Subhanallah.

Hati, tabahlah demi kesejahteraan semua. Ini bukan masa untuk fikir diri sendiri. Biarlah orang kata apa, komen, kritik segala. Kita yang hadapi, bukan mereka. Kata yang menyakitkan, buang jauh-jauh. Kalau tak tau nak cakap apa, membisu lebih baik. Jangan sampai menganiaya.

Sabar, sabar dan teruslah bersabar. Sedang sabar itu ganjarannya syurga.

Semoga kita saling melengkapi dalam senang, susah, gembira, sedih bersama. Kamu aku sayang. Kamu ada aku. Kita ada Allah.

Subhanallah...

P/s: Semoga Allah beri hidayah buat semua, kesudahan yang baik di hujungnya. Sedih...hati kadang merintih...Namun optimis semua akan ok..Insyaallah

Eid Mubarak

Selamat Hari Raya Aidillfitri, Maaf Zahir & Batin from us, the greenies!

This is the best raya shot so far :) with kakak and her couldn't care less face, adik eating nenek's choc chip biscuit and ever-ready-smiling ibu ayah on the first raya, at my uncle's place, Shah Alam.

Alhamdulillah. My short raya gateway was exciting! Will post an entry bout it later.

P/s: Quiet office, just what I need to catch my deadlines... *back to work*

The Quest for a Shoe

One of the lesson that I learned from being a mother for almost 3 years now is about not-compromising comfort. What I wear simply speaks how I feel (comfort); although it appears as sluggish to some others. I don't bother to look grand in order to feel good. In fact I feel great without make-up, Gucci, Jovian Mandagie, 10 karat diamond and a Porsche. Nothing, compare to the satisfaction of chasing a 30 and 10 months old toddler and baby around!

But yeah, I have to admit that once a while you need to spend for a looker. Cruel world. What is seen as nice, deemed as nice. So I adapt, moderately to cater both; others' perceptions and most importantly my values.

Shoes and women are just like sugar and spice. Well, irony-ly, almost everything is a woman's best friend (???). The last shoes I bought was back when I was pregnant with UFZ. Oh yes, it was during raya! Guess what, I still put on the same Scholl flats until now. Being the only shoes in the active mode. Wow. Ni Haji Bakhil pon kalah! Haha. Honestly, I can easily-give up when searching for a shoe. I am fussy. Only because of;
1. Size
I am tall and heavy. Heels make my back hurt. Flats appear boring but often a best-fit.
2. Load
My 10 months old baby loves to be carried by his over-attentive ibu. He is not that light.
3. Design
Non strap (quick-wear), light-weight, proper foot support and yet, stylish.

Most of the time stylish shoes are not meant for comfort. Period.

Today, I made the time to look for new shoe at iSetan in conjunction of hari raya. Took me a while, seriously. Settled down with one from Pedal Works. Light weight, platform/wedge cut for stability, foot support in place and ankle guard for better grip.

P/s: Done with shoes. Need to work on the add-ons for the hijab. Too simple. Time, please be at my side...
Selamat Hari Raya, Maaf Zahir Batin :)

Today, staff from Group HSE made the effort to distribute the print out to all floor at this tower! Wow. Am sure all employees felt appreciated for the kind-reminder by the employer. At least I do! Thank you! :)

Hulk-y green

Few friends tegur saya nampak lain.

1. Tudung lilit - sebab ni je tudung yang match dengan baju.

2. Hijau. Kata mereka naik seri pakai hijau. Hmm mak anak dua pon ada main naik-naik seri lagi ke? Mungkin sebab kuih seri muka warna hijau? Haha apa-apa je la.

P/s: Hulk-y day indeed. Takpa, ada masa untuk buktikan mereka salah! :)

Quick-cook

11 Ramadhan.

Alhamdulillah. Menu for breakfasting today; nasi tomato, ayam masak merah, telur mata kero (haha!) and lemonade.

Decided on the menu on my way back from work. Called mama for the quick-cooking-guide. And managed to prepare the dishes in 45 minutes. For a first timer, the nasi tomato deserves a compliment! Despite the absence of few herbs for extra-flavour, the taste is still well accepted by the husband.

Oh I am a happy wife! Alhamdulillah :)

P/s: sorry over sikit. Not everyday I get to cook like this. Took the advantage while the kids were still at the babysitter's place ;p
