Her

not funny

Dyan

u know what’s not funny? When people tell you, life is good working from home, especially in Ramadhan.

I have odd sleeping hours now that i work from home. I usually sleep at about 3.00am and wake up by 11.00am the morning after. WIth Ramadan, it’s harder to keep to this weird timing. I’ll feel sleepy by 3.00am but i refuse to sleep because sahur is in few hours time and i’m a deep sleeper. At least for the 1st 5 hours, i get into a really deep sleep even that annoying iPhone alarm can’t wake me up.

We missed 2 sahur so far because i accidentally slept at 3.00am and husband woke up at 6.30am and had to rush to work and i only woke up at 10.00am, realising that we did not sahur. I felt so damn guilty because i know the husband hates not being able to sahur.

Dugaan duduk rumah time ramadan jangan cakap. So many times, i open the fridge, pour a drink, put it on my study table and then realised i’m fasting. Tu belom part  jiran-jiran tetangga yang tersayang yang masak during the day and then the bau masuk menusuk kalbu. Korang cuba try duduk rumah on weekdays. Macam2 bau masakan yang ada. Rajin jiran2 aku.

On the other hand, i’m kept very busy saving the world rushing artworks for clients and pestering my printers to get everything out before Raya. This is where the art of negotiating comes in. I’ve been know among ex-colleagues to be one of the best negotiators in the department. *pats back*

Oh and can u believe it, i have not done any Raya shopping yet? This year super slack.
The other day i told my husband “this year raya mcm tak excited ah. maybe pasal dah 2nd year” and he got offended lah sey! hahahaha

Padahal i was referring to the house. our 2nd year in the house! Not 2nd year being his wife. -_____-

And you know how pagi2 u bangun semangat berkobar-kobar nak buat itu ini, sana sini and then once u dah mandi, u macam malas nak buat apa2 and you just end up watching youtube videos? I’ve been doing that for the past week.

I might be one of the best negotiator.
but i’m also one of the best procrastinator.

The Husband & Wife

The second one

Dyan

It’s my second Ramadhan with the husband! Oh, Ramadhan kareem u all!
Anyway, this Ramadhan is extra special because it’s just the two of us. (Last Ramadhan, his auntie tumpang rumah kita and errr i was excused from cooking for Iftar and Shaur. even though we had to keep eating Asam Pedas, Kari Ayam and Sambal Udang on a very very regular basis)

This year, i die2 had to wake up for sahur. just so you know, i always skip sahur and just tahan with not eating the entire day because i get very cranky when people wake me up from sleep.
So i usually will eat before i sleep.

But my suami tercinta need to sahur. and it has to be rice.
macam lah dia kerja cucuk tanam sayur, keluar peluh nitis2.hee
So nak tak nak, nak masuk syurga, kena lah bangun sahur.
But i told my husband to not talk to me during Sahur because i get irritated when people talk to me. Ngada2 i know. But my husband being my husband, thinks it’s funny to make fun of me during sahur. 😦

Been sick since 1st day of Ramadhan but alhamdulillah i’m holding strong. But then again, i work from home. I can take a nap as and when i want. -_____-

Oh, and our 2nd Ramadhan together and i just found out that he don’t like Kurma and he just found out that i LOVE kurma.
