Saturday saw us driving to the workshop to get the water tank in the Iswara repaired. The boys should be very happy - the aircon is fixed, the suspension restored and now the water tank. On the way home, we passed Bestmart and there seemed to be some sort of street fair and dad said, "Let's check this out." Well, it's sort of Gaya Street Fair - the same vendors from Gaya St. All sorts of fruits, veggie, knickknacks etc. Bought some potatoes and yams and yes, orchids for my garden - then we spotted a stall selling dad's favourite sesame biscuits priced at RM2.00. "Wah, so expensive," dad commented, "Penampang market sells this for RM1.60 only." The lady smiled and said,"OK you can have it for RM1.60." Imagine, if we had not known, we would have paid .40 extra for nothing. Saturday was slow and relaxing.
This morning, Pastor Kenneth Chin of AYA, Subang Jaya pepped up the church with his sermon. He was hilarious and had the whole church in stitches as he poked fun at "standard, good christian parents." This man has a passion for youth and I'm sure the Elektos Youth must have had a wonderful time with him during the weekend. 5 o'clock today, we will be watching the much awaited "Da Vinci Code".

Now we are all becoming a family of prudent shoppers! So easy for these sellers to mark-up price as and when they feel...
I feel very sad indeed...over these past couple of years...you and dad seem to live such a spontaneous life-style. I'm not saying that you shouldn't enjoy life more than ever. I mean i wouldn't imagine dad just turning the car upon seeing something so unusual. In the past, most of the things he does seem so calculated... it's obvious this change is due to the absence of the children amoung other things... man, i thought children were suppose to enhance a couples lifestyle...hahahhahahaha
(SMile) you seemed surprised that we have a life after the children leave the nest eh? In fact, i was contemplating the fly n cruise holiday : Singapore-Langkawi-Pukhet. Will let you know cos dad's probably going to Shanghai next month.
