Little did I know that it would be very sad day for me. I lost my Charlie.
Charlie passed away at the vet, this evening. The nice dr. was so sorry that she couldnt save Charlie. Although she has done her level best. God loves Charlie more.
I took Chalie's still warm body home in a box for the funeral tomorrow.
Charlie was with us for two years. And he was very close to me. I am the only one who could calm him down, for he has quite a temper sometimes. But Charlie has always been a sweet and loving companion.
I love you Charlie. Your bowls, your pet carrier, will always remind me of you.
Good bye my dear Charlie. May You Rest In Peace. I dearly missed you !Ammoontiehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/10284118601495425843noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19665601.post-5526139037444270942013-02-16T19:12:00.002+03:002013-02-16T19:12:57.097+03:00IN MEMORIAM ...This is a long overdue post which I didnt get to pen in my thoughts.
At the end of January, our favourite and beloved cat died. The vet said it was due to some viral infection.
I had taken him earlier to the vet to be neutered, in the hope that he would be much healthier and not impregnate the female cats. I have seen the cats that have neen neutered, they grow so much bigger and not springing their scents everywhere in the house. But 10 days after the procedure he developed a high temperature, couldnt eat nor drink and passed away a few days later. Almost everyone blamed me for neutering him, they kept on harping it on me for losing Blackie. I really realy felt ( still feel..) so very sad at the incident. But its not in our hands to control life and death.
For days I cried. His sister "Silver" missed him too, for she is all alone in the house now. She went round meowing and looking for her brother. Such a pitiful sight.
Then on saturday nite, the 2nd of feb, I was sitting in front of my computer, wanting to write about Blackie, but was overcomed by so much sadness. I was wallowing in self pity with loads of regrets in my heart. If only Blackie is still alive... how happy we all could be. But it was just not meant to be.
The next morning, at 6am I was woken up by a call from a very dear and close friend. My heart skipped a beat when I heard her voice ... Just would like to inform you that Kudin is no more with us. He passed away at 11.30 last night. That is her only son, a handsome young man in his early twenties. My tears dropped like rain again. I couldnt imagine how hurt and sad his mother must be. But she accepted the fate, "redha" is the word. No matter how painful...
Al Fatehah for him.
I lost my Blackie, my dear friend lost her only son ...
But life must go on. Time may heal the pain but not the scar that has been left behind.Ammoontiehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/10284118601495425843noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19665601.post-62283439563782201392013-01-29T20:34:00.000+03:002013-01-29T20:34:36.806+03:00MAMA MIA !!!About more than a week ago, I managed to catch a movie on tv, which is a very occassion.
One of the girl said... tonights movie is Mama Mia..! Then I said...uh..uh..
Then I heard the song " Mama Mia" popularised by ABBA. That intro was enough to set me glued in front of the tv...for the rest of the nite !
Oh what a nostalgic movie...all the songs from ABBA. And guess what there was my favourite hero... who else but the suave and good looking Mr Bond himself... Pierce Brosnan..!!!
A romantic comedy ... with a happy ending. This kind of movie..really makes my day.
Gone were the days when I was able to catch a good movie. Time really has changed so much. Age catching up...

We dont celebrate it in a big way, but yesterday's preparations were hectic. All the cooking and cleaning made my head and body aching all over in a big way. What more it rained heavily in the evening and I was soaking wet in trying to get some belimbing buluh for the satay gravy. My neice took over the task of making some cakes and jelly last night. I was already in dream land.
As usual a good friend from the different time zone called. He does that on every Eids, birthdays, new year and important occassion.
I actually missed " dak Boer " ! Been taking care of him for more than a month and he is so lovable. He is already in Heaven now. I get emotional with things like this.
I wish I could " Qurban " someone from far away!

The weather was not being too good on us...been cloudy with some slight drizzles.It was rather quiet in the early morning, then people started to come in the afternoon. Their visits are predictable ... all our relatives..their spouses and children and friends.
<br />We made some ketupat pulut yesterday, and thats our main dishes for the day to go with the meat rendang.
<br />My neice made some cookies and her storage bottles are all neatly arranged on the counter which attracted the visitors attention. Soome even wanted to place order for next Hari Raya. But my neice had to politely decline the offer, we are not selling ! Since we know what we went through in making those "beautiful" cookies.
<br />And guess what we had for dinner, none other than the good old fried rice. We were too tired to cook anything else. Tried to stay up to watch Nur Kasih the movie on tv, but it was a real big dissappointment. Nur kasih the series were much better.Ammoontiehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/10284118601495425843noreply@blogger.com2tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19665601.post-27610703713706648382011-08-29T19:58:00.002+03:002011-08-29T20:04:33.866+03:00Eve of AidilFitriA month of fasting has gone. Tomorrow we shall celebrate Hari Raya.
<br />All preps and cooking for the big day tomorrow was done. My back is breaking !
<br />My nerve is wrecking.
<br />
<br />Some of the nice people came over tonite to recite the Takbir Raya at home.
<br />It was really a great feeling having them in the house. It brings up the mood for Raya.
<br />Been a very long time since I wrote anything here, too many stories, too many tales, but where do I begin ?

It is so nostalgic, listening to those Christmas songs. Memories keep flowing back, as if they were all 'yesterdays'.<br />Shopping and the Orchard Road's light up, Christmas with friends, Christmas gifts, Christmas deco ...Christmas holidays are the best time of the year. Or at least it used to be. Once upon a time.<br /><br />But all that has changed. Time has passed. I am now at a different time zone, different wave. All I have is a memory of those wonderful time.<br />Something ... Someone ...

Although the weather has not been too kind since the morning. It drizzled for a bit a continued to be gloomy. The sun refused to shine. Which reminded me again of Eids celebrated in the winter months. Back then Eid was not as merry and joyous as we were away from our family and the culture was different. We got to taste the ketupat at the embassy open house, meeting fellow countrymen and catching up for a bit and trying to have some small talks just to be nice to people. If you know what I mean, how some of the Malaysians when they are residing overseas. After the meals we would end up having coffee at starbucks and shopping at Seef Mall or take a walk along the corniche.<br />Now that I am home, I missed those days as much as I missed celebrating Eid in Malaysia.<br /><br />This year, the second year of celebrating Eid without my mother. The Ramadhan which is supposed to be a Blessed and special month, came and went, with a mixed feeling of loss, regrets and relief. Too much work around the house with too little help is a huge burden. Sacrifice is the word. Life is not easy. To balance things while keeping sane. Hope to get all my energy back and soon to continue with my daily routine.<br /><br />EID MUBARAK to everyone. May we live to see the next Ramadhan. Good health, plenty of happiness and wealth for each day to come. Maaf zahir batin.Ammoontiehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/10284118601495425843noreply@blogger.com1
