Just Another Day

Posted Oct 8th, 2009 at 05:29 PM by Afro-Sheen

So now Umaiza will be 4 weeks old Friday and about a month this weekend, Mashallah. She is doing pretty good, getting better with the feeding etc....just have to figure out what to do about her being up most of the night!!!

I think soon we have to develop some kind of a routine for her, desperately need it with 2 kids and eventually going back to work. aRGHH!!! Just enjoying my time now.

Also need to get moving on the whole shopping ordeal with furnishing the new house Inshallah. Expected move time is within 2-3 weeks, let's see. Sooo much to do, sooo much to pack...so much to buy...it's quite a bit overwhelming. We figure we will buy the pure essentials and move in and then slowly get all the other things we need and settle down.

I am not much of a shopper and really have trouble deciding on something. Like as many furniture stores we have visited, we SHOULD have settled on a sofa set by now....but i cant decide. Maybe I was too pregnant when I was looking and easily annoyed hehe so now hope to pick a set.

Oh yeah...umm need to pick out paint colors for the living room and also bedroom etc....hmm. Soooooooo many color options that my head hurts when I go to like Home Depot. Then we need to decide whether we want 2 colors, one of them being accent wall....or a neutral color all around...hmm....

Everytime I think of how much there is to do, my brain just lets out a big fart, I procrastinate and I end up wanting to do nothing!!!!! However soon I musttt go for it and just go with MY gut feeling as im probably not gonna listen to the hubby's opinion anyways...hehe

Ohhhhh and what really tops the cake is that after searching & searching I fell in love with this awesome Black Samsung fridge, double door. What I liked was the fridge had a seperate drawer with its own temperature control....me likes.....plus it looked sleek and we got a really good price. BUTTT.......the stupid fridge did not fit. We measured 36 inches width of space...and fridge was 35 inches wide...so they said........but it barely fit and the door couldnt open right......i was pissed...but yeah we had to send it back with delivery guy! Back to the drawing board on that as well....and for some reason hubby thinks the French door refrigerators are nice....me no likes having to bend down all the time to get frozen stuff.....if I have to...then I want to go all out and get this really cool Samsung fridge that has 2 seperate drawers on the bottom, and you can interchange them with temperature controls to make both a freezer or just one a freezer and an extra fridge space draw....neat!!!

    LOL, I should post pics of the house BEFORE i decorate it, it might become a disaster zone once I am done. My hubby is already afraid. Where is Muniya?? Hehe I have this liking towards gothic stuff and wanted to paint the walls black, and get like funky gray accents and purple lights...etc....and get it all funky...hubby is like umm NO! also difficult to repaint over black...i think...hmmm

    Moving is intimidating at best. Yeah it is difficult with the 2 kids, but not that bad. I can have Nani Amma watch the baby while we shift. I had a few complications actually with the c-section, so been back n forth with the doc and she yelled at me to be on strict bed rest until 6 weeks are over. I was getting stir-crazy and went out shopping just a week after the c-section...not smart at all.....grr.....khair. Just looking at stuff online now, and will soon go shopping Inshallah.

    Hope everyone is well.

    Oooh Sara the fridge is pretty neat yaar!!! Darn the pricetag, but pretty darn neat

    24.8 cu. ft. four door refrigerator RM257ABSH (24.8 cu.ft. platinum) - Four Door - Refrigerators | SAMSUNG

    But I still don't like bottom door fridges.

    mysti, seriously, if you do have pictures, please share. I have been looking online of ways to incorporate black "decently" or in a trendy way so it doesnt look so "morbid" according to hubby.
