Off the cuff..

Opened my eyes at 5.30a.m this morning. Earlier in fact. Just that it was the routine "to get up or not to get up". Of course I didn't, hence I missed my Tahajjud. Then at 5.30, I thought I could still make it. Day before while checking out the prayer times for the remainder of this month, I noticed that maghrib is now at 7.01p.m and slowly after this will become later and later. So okay, took it for granted that I could make it only to realise it later that I could not. I was brushing my teeth when I heard our azan alarm to indicate the prayer time for Subuh..

Anyway, after subuh prayer I didn't go back to bed. Did my morning stretching exercises and at 7.00a.m sent Ja to the LRT station to catch the ERL to KLiA for his trip to Perth. Should be arriving in Perth about 3.00p.m. Check in at his hotel then wait for our son, EA.

Was supposed to go to the gym with Lisa at 8.00 a.m but I have this running nose to contend with. I wouldn't want to contaminate the gym what with the H1N1 still looming in the horizon. So I decided to just stay home, write this blog and after this perhaps finish off trimming the dining chair covers that I managed to finish sewing yesterday.

Also saw Sam at my neighbour's house. She looked at me as I drove past but she hasn't been back home for quite a while now. I only get to see her every now and then but am grateful that her new owner seems to love and care for her very well. Only that she doesn't get to sleep in the house. She is in my prayers daily..

Now at 10.30a.m, I just got back after fetching Lisa from gym and dropping her off at her college. Snowball is sleeping on the kitchen cabinet, Patty in my room and Grubs in the guest room. One day, I will write about all the cats that we have at home...

What else.. oh yes, Lisa has a lunch outing with Azlan (she calls him Alan). He plans to cook, though no confirmation just yet where he 'll do the cooking.

Husna from Sec 14 mosque just called to find out if Ja and I would like to help in the Qurban event this year to be held this Saturday. We were there last year. This year though? Will wait for Ja to arrive back with EA from Perth this thursday before deciding..
