CNY Day 6

Another simple lunch before I went to work.

fried fish, stewed meat and stir-fried cauliflower



My girl went to the shop with me. She stayed at the shop so I could go out to TNB to pay our electrical bills. I had to wait for some time. While waiting, I called my ex-colleague and my ex-course mate. It's been a long time since we last chatted. Nice to talk to them for a while before my turn came..

Went back to the shop and worked as usual. Later in the afternoon, my friend who owns a computer shop called me. She was supposed to pick up my girl's laptop as it has problem. It was just newly bought from her.


She came in alone and I asked for her kids. When they came in, I gave them an ang pow each. They were so happy. Such lovely family.

My girl and I came back earlier at about 9pm and we went out for dinner. After dinner, I fetch my boy back from his meeting place with his friends..

This evening, I didn't rest so I think I will need to sleep early tonight. 

Tomorrow I will need to prepare breakfast for my girl before she goes back for her studies in Nilai.


p/s 
CNY lasts for 15 days and I'm counting the days before I finally get to meet my shop's facebook friends on Chap Goh Meh.

    Day VI is the birthday of horse and you as usual always busy at home and running around town with the spirit of 龍馬精神 *lóng mǎ jīng shén* in between work and errands for the day.

      BTW, why don't you pay the bills online or perhaps sign up for auto-debit from credit cards, that will save you time for going there and queue to make payments..

Twin bananas

Image
Today this cute little darling visited me. His grandparents brought him over for the very first time. He's so cute as he smiled readily. I was tempted to carry him and he was fine with that. Some babies don't like strangers.  I carried him and kissed his cheek several times..So adorable. Without hesitation, I gave him an ang pow. his granddad put him on the table and I took a shot of him.. When I went back home in the evening, I realized that the bunch of bananas at the altar has ripen. I brought the bunch to my shop and shared with my people. There was this particular twin bananas and my worker wanted them. She peeled them and I could see that they were adjoined all the way down. Well, old wives tale has it that those ladies who ate them would give birth to twins in future..
