Last night

Both Aiman and I came home from a wedding last night with the intention to do some work before heading to bed.

What really happened: Aiman was in Disneydreamland 5 minutes later.

So I thought this would be the perfect time for me to have some me-time and finish up work for Double A. It was really nice to just snuggle underneath the duvet in the coldest 16 degrees room and  pay all my attention to Double A. Aiman and I are currently at this stage where we have soooo many little little things that we need to sort out immediately every chance we had - at every-free time we have because weekdays are just so difficult for us to run errands for the Cafe. 

We're in the midst of something very exciting at the moment! Excited to plan our first ever event at the cafe soon InsyaAllah! So, sorted out all the operational matters and then it came to customising menu....

"I want to have this. No no....I want to have that. Perhaps along with this one too?"

Was debating with my self for about half an hour - well, me and snoring Aiman - before I gave up and thought it was time for bed. Woke Aiman up (coz he was asleep on the floor, didn't make onto the bed guys. He was that tired!), got him to sleep properly and then headed to bed. 

This morning I woke feeling satisfied that I managed to complete so much work last night before Aiman casually said...

"Did you know you woke up in the middle of the night last night? You were talking to yourself and was asking "Where's the client listttt? Where is it?"...."

Apparently I insisted on that Client list. I think I meant Cake list perhaps. Or maybe I had too much of Invest Malaysia 2015. Haha!! Aiman being the good husband tried to wake me up from sleep talking and guess what happened?

I looked at him and said "YOU"RE NOT MY CLIENT!!"...and happily snuggled back to bed. 

Haihhh so nice to be married right. I get to scold someone in my sleep. LOL!!!! Sorry sayang! :)))

Appreciate

Lately I've realised that as humans you can take for granted even the smallest things. Small things that only when its lost will you realise it, regretting for not appreciating those things sooner. 

Some people can continue talking so harshly - taking for granted someone who doesn't take things to heart. "No matter how I speak, this person will still treat me kindly anyway". 

Some people can feel so envious of another's happiness they start comparing lives; "why does she have it and I don't?"

Some people cannot see another person so happy and content, they start making other people take sides. This I have seen a lot. 

Some people look for a person only during down times and they forget friends when they are at their happiest. 

Some people can be so calculative they expect something so much bigger because of one little kindness they may have given before. 

Some people suddenly become your friend instantly when you are recognised for something good; "Oh, we grew up together" or some crazy ancient story like that. 

Treat people with kindness, and never take for granted blessings (no matter how small) that are right before your eyes. It can a beautiful day (and people still whine when it's too hot or when it rains!), it can be a small surprise from someone, it can be a nice person, it can even be a smile from a stranger. All these little thing and kindness make all the difference. Cherish it and always count your blessings before you even ask for something, a little more. 

I just feel very thankful for the handful of people I see every single day who are always positive and happy - they never fail to make me feel content. Happiness is a choice and it's really free! So don't waste em energy competing with your inner self :)

Mix & Match

We're now in the midst of choosing and picking what we want to put into our cafe - the colours, the cups, the chairs, the tiles....everything!!! It's so super fun mix and matching everything that sometimes we tend to piece things that our ID doesn't agree with. Imagine the headache our ID has to go through, coz Aiman and I think it's a free playground.

Once, we tried to mix and match yellow, red and black cups. REJECTED.

It's like picking what you want for a wedding dress. Which and what go together. For me, I can be quite bad at it at times, because I love so many things, and these many things when put together don't go together. Hahaha!

Anyway, we're getting very excited as we plan for the opening soon, InsyaAllah if He wills it. In the meantime, we'll continue to give our ID a big massive headache :D
