Moving in progress

We’re baaaaaaack! It was a good break. Had a great time catching up with several friends and family. Also, the trip to London with the babes was fun. I miss them loads and can’t wait for them to come back to Singapore for visits!

In the meantime, we found out that Cookie had an ulcer in one of her eyes. It was pretty bad according to Che.. because we were still in Holland when it happened. He brought her to the vet and got the necessary treatment. She’s doing better now and hating the antibiotics that we have to feed her twice a day.

Since we got back from the trip, its been about getting the house to look more like a home. We are getting there.. slowly but surely.

Our New Home

The Stoelwinders have moved. After being in that house for 3 years, it was time to find a different place to call home. It was a pretty stressful weekend with all the packing and moving. The entire week after that was filled with final arrangements for the old place and ensuring that we’ve moved everything over.

School holidays have also arrived. Thank goodness. For the first week of the hols, I’ve finally managed to finish the entire syllabus with 4E1. Some people didn’t turn up for the lessons. I wish they had cause they missed 5 chapters. Sometimes students do not appreciate the extra lessons that teachers have arranged for them, amidst our busy schedule. And that can be frustrating.

After all that, we packed our suitcases and flew to Holland for our much deserved break. Family gatherings and celebrations are among the plans for this hols. In fact, we have just celebrated Haet’s 63rd birthday. Gefeliciteerd Haet! And of course, the much-awaited London trip with my two best friends. Besides that, we are just planning to take things easy.

Till my next update, take care and hope all is well with all of you!

p.s : I miss my dear cookster, Cookie Wookie! :)
