Happy Mother's Day!

A nice bouquet of lilies to me from my gal..... to wish me a happy mother's day!  Again cant thank God enough for the kids, no, no more kids, they are young adults now... i just want to pray for God's mercy and grace to be upon them and also, His guidance in their lives... 

Renovation completed

April is gone , and the study area , store room and the glass door for the kitchen is up... Finally renovation for this little place is done ... Really like the study desk and after so many years, this is the best i have for myself...  thats enough for now, probably 2 years later, to renovate my son's room ! while he is away for national service :)

renovation in april again.....

after a long holiday in italy..... its time to fix the hall...
the store room once tear down was suppose to make more space for the hall..but it seems that i need it back now
we just have too many things and its all over the place :( ... or i am simply messy ^.^

kitchen is up .. whats next ?

hmmm... where should i start? there were few events went through in last dec...

. kitchen renovation
. sprained my foot
. 5day/4 nights in vietnam hcmc
. christmas


yes, kitchen is done and i am very happy. finally. a neat and clean look is so refreshing..

the next thing to do this march is to build back the store room that we have torn down. guess, a decent store room is what we need to put our 3 luggages and things that we only use once a while ... example the BBQ steamboat hotplate... but that will happen after my italy trip....

Work in progress......

all wet works are done... and i am ready for my holidays in Vietnam in a couple of days time... many thanks to my sweetheart helping me to clean up... i really like the white wall and the rubbish chute now..
indeed, a brand new look and feel of the house, really good !

Year end renovation ....

Really busy october and November . Not only work but also at home !! Really Want to have a brand new kitchen for the new year.... As renovation , it's really a nightmare.. Dust all over the place and the furbies need to park at big sister house at least for a couple of weeks till the wet done done, tiles are up ....

In the home....

it's has been a month staying in the home.... She is looking much better and adapting well .... Though the home is rather far for all of us but I think its alright as long as she is well ....

August.... a time for celebration.......

August... just to find another reason to gather together to have meals and fun with friends and loved ones........One year older and i hope i am wiser, and of course, to grow old gracefully.. Again, thank God for all the provisions for all of us!

Mixed feelings.........

a new hair do on the last day stay in the hospital before we send her to nursing home. this is our last resort for her to have proper meals and medication... i feel comforted to see her finally receiving proper care, but on the other hand, also feel sorry for her to adapt to another new environment... its going to be hard on her, but we don't have any other options for now......

family fotos with val's graduation ..

selected the best four from these stack of studio photos.. just cant take my eyes of them.. they are really well taken.. i will surely do it again when she gets the hat on, thats three years later completing her degree in arts...

HongKong with the young adults....

five days in hong kong with the children... nope, they are no longer children..but young adults... was like having a marathon.. we walk and shop all the days.. my old bones are cracking up.. however, we do really really have a wonderful time spending together...

Trident at Gurgaon....

this is one of the best hotels i ever stayed..... just love the tranquility that she provides.. really soothes you from the maddness in the traffic.... going back home tomorrow, surely will miss this heaven-like hotel.....
