Woo Hoo!!

Remember I was saying that we were waiting for Ikea to deliver our stuff? The original time was between 2pm-5pm. Surprisingly, they gave a call to hubby early this morning, (when were still IN bed) and said that the delivery will be made between 11am - 2pm!

Woah... much earlier lei. Lucky, we din go to watch the "golden flower" else sure miss the delivery! But then again, since they called us and advaned the delivery, we think it's also coz there isn't much people who bought bukly items and need delivery services. Who will at this time anyway... After Christmas and CNY is not for another 2 months and the sales for CNY has not even begun anyway.

After all the items were delivered, hubby and I set to work. NOT easy in asembling all these things lei! We worked non stop for at least 2 hours just on fixing the cupboards the table LEGS! We had to re-do the cupboards coz the measurement was slightly off.

We decided to try to buy an electric screwdriver or drill when we needed to fix the tables. There are 5 screws to each leg, making a grand total of 60 threadless nails to be screwed in! VERY hard work and we took a break here. Went to the coffee shop for lunch and also looked around for the equipment.

Too bad for hubby, we cannot find any. Poor hubby got to then manually screwed in each and every single nail.

Just after we got home, I got a surprise from Tri. She sent me a sms and within minutes of me replying her, she appeared with her newphew and neice just as I was opening the window! I saw the kids first and was like... these 2 kids very familiar, where have I seen them before and then I looked up and saw Tri! WAH! Got a shock! I never expect her to come with the 2 children.

She passed me my Christmas present and something she bought in KL for me. Very curious as to what it was, coz Tri's neice, Qian told me, "Ah Yee made it herself." My first thought was food... coz I know Tri likes to play around in the kitchen.

When I opened the present. Wah!! Touched lei!!!

She made a skirt JUST FOR ME, H-E-R-S-E-L-F! Immediately I tried the skirt on and showed it to hubby. He says nice! =) Will be sure to take a picture of it when I wear it the next time. And it fitted perfectly ok! Woah!!!

Black skirt for Christmas done by Tri, herself!

She got me this cute bear from KL.

Thank You so much, Tri!!! I like it very much. So touched. Also got a card. The words on the card warmed my heart lots too!

Back to the Ikea things (while I was enjoying my new presents, hubby was still hard at work...) finally after all those hours, Me, standing at the side and played with the legs and erm... gave encouragements to hubby while he continuing the fight with the screws... finally it's done!

Ta DAAAAA!!

I'm typing this virgin entry from my new study desk!

I'm occupying the left hand corner. Hubby will take the right hand corner. The big table in the middle is for both of us. At the moment the table looks neat and tidy. Not sure for how long, we can maintain it this way though. I seem to be having more space coz both our bicycles are at my corner, so had to give me more space if not, sure kena "JAMMED!". BTW, the 'scorpion' looking thing is the "power rider" that we had no place to house it. It is now relgated to under the table.

New bookcase!

And, our new bookcase. No covers to it, so it can get rather dusty. Plenty of cleaning to be done then.

Quite obvious which side of the bookcase is mine right?! I was telling hubby, maybe we should get a bean bag and throw it at where the excerise ball is. Makes quite a good and cozy reading corner doesn't it?

And for the record, ALL the furniture in this current room are furnised by Ikea! The 3 tables, the 2 bookcase, the 2 black chairs and even the drawer set!

Was joking with hubby, if we buy anymore, we can probably make this room into a show room for Ikea! hahahahaha

Quite happy with all these new things. Now, we have our desk and no longer need to hunch over the tablet when I'm using it anymore!!
