Dari kejauhan...


RBL returns to her normality. Quiet. Save for the sounds of animals . Thus the croaking,quacking,chirping,meowing . And clucking.
But last night that dreadful sound of feet walking on my ceiling returned after so many days of silence. The sound woken me from my sleep .The sound of small feet parading above and sometimes colliding with the steel frames of the plaster ceiling. 

My visitor number one since PKP has since returned to her place of work. Even when she was home, her work followed her as she was on WFH. So as early as 8.30 ,I could see her engrossed in her work on her laptop. Only stopping for lunch and finally called it a day at 6. It was no easy peasy work as some might assume. Looking after statistics for a long time is not for me,I presume. Sometimes she would get  calls from her colleagues and she would guide them in their work.
In between there were the on line courses or town hall  talks that she has to join in. 
By the way,is the term correct.... town hall?

Happy to announce..my girl dah jadi agen kuih bangkit or kuih bakar. Sapa2 ,adik kakak yang berada around KL yang berminat boleh dapatkan melalui dia. Kuih bakar gebu ni memang gebu and melting di makan. Yang terasa nak makan kuih tradisional tentu rasa terubat bila makan kuih ini.
Masa kenduri kaklong haritu,cikson sajikan kuih bakar ini sebagai pencuci mulut. Juga buat sebagai door gift. 
Oh ya, kalau sesiapa nak cari door gift yang tahan, comel comel boleh juga diusahakan. 
Ni dia contohnya...

Kuih bakar ni mmg warnanya keperangan. Ada beza di situ dengan kuih bangkit putih.Rasanya ada kelainan.

Happy Bday dearie...

"May Allah bless you with boundless happiness and endless joy throughout this year & in all the years of your life yet to come. Happy birthday!
May the light of almighty guide you to a place in life where joys are endless and smiles never fade. Happy birthday to you!
May Allah bless you with total integrity and greatness in life. May all you wish for in life come true as soon as possible. Happy Birthday !"

Today is her birthday. The girl with the effervescent smile and personality turns a year wiser this 5th of July.
If I could walk back in memory lane, the second addition to ciklicikson family came when we were at our low end. Cikli having quit his job and not knowing when the next paycheck would be. Time was indeed hard. And ever since,my little girl becomes a survivor on her own. Those Seri Puteri years when she was in her secondary school made her a survivor. Umur baru 13 tahun dah kena survive sendiri jauh dari keluarga. And this makes her somewhat independent.Coping with what life has to offer. By the way RCS,cikli's company came into being and named after her and her elder sister. RINA was born soon after she was born. That too was a struggle with lots to tell.
Semoga anakanda sentiasa dalam rahmat dan peliharaan Allah swt.


Allow me to wish you in Arabic dearie. Here goes.

Adios ..sayonara


Petang tadi ciklicikson hantar anakanda pulang naik ETS. Dah rasa berzaman tak lawat wilayah stesen keretapi dibandar Diraja Arau ni. Mau ada dalam 6 bulan.
Terakhir masa misi ke Pantai Timur untuk majlis bertandang akhir tahun sudah. Bahana naik tangga turun tangga sambil heret beg berat, kepala lutut cikson out of form. Mogok . Maka bertatih cikson hampir se tengah tahun. Ada masa sampai pakai walker..tapi bukanlah walker baby na. Now its a bit ok.

SOP masih dipraktikkan di sana. Tanda2 pangkah ada merata. Tapi ada tanda X yang jadi _/. Tentu ada tangan2 gatal yang mencarik tape yang diletakkan.
Cikli memilih kerusi tanpa X dan leka berbual dengan anak. Sedar sedar dah ada makcik mana tah datang bertenggek di kerusi bertanda X sebelah cikli. So far for SOP.

We bade goodbye n sayonara when the announcement came for the KL bound passengers to scan and proceed downstairs. Maka habislah kisah peneman kami ke mana mana selama seminggu ini. True enough... masa telah mengambil keupayaan kami utk berdikari ke sana sini. Bila sakit mula menguasai diri..

Ehhh kemana kita lepas ni?
Balik sajalah. Lagi pun panaslah.

But to home we didnt. Left turn into Kangar Jaya and stopped at the new opened Kedai 2 RM. Kuat pula kaki jijak tangga . And a 60 ringgit loot ended our shopping spree. Macam2 cikson sambar. Dari container plastik, botol plastik..eh semuala plastik. Itu pun bukan sangga happy hati ni. Jadilah boleh berbelanja walau bukan emas permata.
Tergelak sejenak lihat gambar difb orang ikat rantai tangan dengan cable tie...by the way cikson teragak2 nak beli cable tie yang paling besar. Bukan nak ikan rantai tangan tapi nak berDIY.

Returned home nearly 3. To an empty home save for cikli and me.
In 3 weeks time someone is coming home...and mommy's cooking is waiting for thou..

agaknya apa yang ditenung si cilik . Kat sini harga kena 2 digit  saja . Lebih
tak boleh...

Bila satu satu mereka pulang...jalan lagiii..

After a more than 3 months curfew, at last its a free for all to visit anywhere we choose. Although with  SOP and what not.
So with a driver at hand ,its a jalan jalan sana sini time for the two old folks at RBL. Sapa lagi kalau ciklicikson yang awesome tu..huhu.

So yesterday evening after our girl finished her work,off to Tunjang we went. Tunjang is a small nook of a town along the route to Jitra. Both are in Kedah. By and by at 6 we arrived at Echah's house. Dijamu lempiang bakaq nyok dengan gulai temenung ikan sekoq waaah . Macam terlaksana impian makcik as I have been having the crave for it a long time.

Then its homeword bound.
Ehhh dinner kat mana? Sini or sana. Meaning along the way or at Kangar.
On and on we went till we sauntered into Bossku Cafehouse. I have noticed this cafe for a long time but never frequent it. Housed beside a large tree its easily noticeable . Near Sena roundabout and Putra Regency. Sebelah Bangunan Persekutauan.
Food was ok. Nasi lemak and nasi goreng palatable.

The night journey ended with the three of us at tokma's house. Catching with news until 11 before we bade goodbye to walk to our home...

Haha... itulah saja cerita tak berfaedah dari cikson. Nak cerita bab lain takut...
Sejak dua menjak ni nampak visitor menurun. Ya lah... orang dah tak baca blog dah. Tapi utk mengasah minda supaya jangan jadi tepu,I have to keep on writing. And I love to go back to my own writing ....hehe.Mcm narcissist pun ada.
