Feb 2010 Port Dickson Getaway

It's only Feb and I am already tired of work and cannot wait till CNY. So we packed up and went to PD...nearby and no fuss. However with a 5-year old, we packed like we were not coming back :)

Just the sand, sea, lovely weather and the 12 of us!!! Yes, not 3 but 12. We went there to chaperone a few good kids that needed to get away for a retreat, which if we had not been there, their parents would have not allowed them to go. So, we were on a supervision holiday. It was fun and they were all good kids (just like me when I was that age, haha)

Now that we are back, it's been a drag just getting back to work knowing that CNY is only a week away, well a few days away actually. My brain is not waking up, my feet are not cooperating, my consciousness is still in PD. My entire being is just lethargic at the thought of work. Nevertheless, I wake up at 6:30 am, prepare breakfast for the kids (one is 5, the other is 39). Then get one ready for kindy, the other can pretty much dress himself. Then we are off to start the routine which has been pretty much what we call this life.

This life which is not perfect but just right in each and every way.

The pot tackles the misery.

Getting Away

We are now planning a holiday for May 2009. I know it is a tad early but with a 4-year old and and full-time jobs, we have to. It would be sooooo easy if we had a vacation planner just like the one here at http://www.islandgetaway.com/ where your entire holiday can be laid out in front of you.

Hilton Head Island is pretty much an island resort where you can find the most beautiful beaches and still tee off. You can go alone or with your family. It is basically for you to g-e-t-a-w-a-y. Families can go to get away from their daily routine and enjoy themselves with the abundant activities that are organised all year round. It is beautiful, relaxing, and just a click away.

For those of you who are keen to look into long-term relaxation and long-term investment, the hilton head real estate have property managers that can look into this for you. The island is kept in fantastic condition by their hand-picked managers to ensure that standards are maintained so that your stay, be it short or long, will be a pleasant one.

There are tons of things to do in hilton head south carolina. If you are into golf, it would be the perfect getaway. But it does not stop there as you can hike, bike, , fish, bird-watch, roller skate, picnic, enjoy a game of tennis, and do so much more. There are plenty of activities for children too which includes face-painting, fireworks, play basketball and that's just to name a few.

You get to choose from various types of rentals which include, Oceanfront Homes, Near-Ocean Homes, Oceanfront Villa, Near-Ocean Villa, Oceanwalk Vill and Harbourfront Villas.

Restaurants are family-friendly, weather is great all year round, plenty of shopping at the Malls, it is romantic for the couples, easy and fun for the family, relaxing for the tired, and just great for anyone. You won't regret it.

Er, now what was it I was telling you about that was going to happen in May?

T-shirt decorating

>i had bought some puff paint for MA for her craft this weekend. The instructions were to paint generously on white shirt or any other of choice. Put aside for 4 hours, then heat up with hair dryer and this is the result:




It makes the T-shirt shrivel where the puff paint is.

The Skyline from where I am sitting in the car

I want to share this pic with all of you as it is taken with my new handphone. Yup! I got a new phone. My old samsung died on me last Sunday, sob sob :( I liked that phone a lot too but somehow it did not last even 2 years. I had some problems with it about a month plus ago and spent about RM150 fixing it. Maybe I should have just traded it then because if I had, I would have gotten more for it. Now, they only gave me RM50 for it. Sigh.

Hope you like the pic.

Paper Towel Tie-Dye project

This is MA & Mummy's project over the weekend. While it rained and rained and rained, we coloured our paper towels and dried them.






We might get these paper towels to be laminated and used as placemats :)
