Two Weddings and A Funeral

Hola strange place!

Haven’t been here so long. Not much to update except life goes on, people get married and death still strike the still mortals.

A cousin got married in the last week of October. A wedding which we couldn’t go because Abang is getting married this weekend. There can’t be 2 weddings in the same lunar month. So as customs dictate we can’t go to his wedding and they can’t come to Abang’s.

A week later the groom’s dad, my uncle, my mother’s younger brother passed away in China. And because Chinese funeral can be way beyond a family’s means they cremated Uncle Ngan Chai before flying him home.

My Por Por (granny) was kept in the dark for fear of her already weak health. She was told last weekend because they had a memorial service for him in KL.

Uncle Ngan Chai the boisterous one who like to poke fun and the happy go lucky uncle, spent 57 years, raised two boys by driving a taxi and starting a driving school.

Uncle Ngan Chai, you will be missed at CNY gathering.

On the work front, it has actually gotten from bad to worse.

Seriously. This new big boss is a piece of work.

Since I can’t do much about it, I’ll just suck it in and deal with it.

I was at K.Liz’s new pad in BI. Really nice single storey semi-d. Gated community. Loved the high ceiling the wide windows.

Really hope we’ll make the big move by this time next year. So excited.
