piece our home

We toiled through the weekend, literally. But it was wonderfully fulfilling!

Let’s see. On Saturday, after pof paper, mum, billy and I went out shopping in town. We had dinner by the river then headed down to funan and city hall. We shared a pack of marks & spencer gummy and the sweetness melted in our mouths and hearts.

Sunday we slept in till 8+am before heading out to abc for brunch. Next, we went to ikea and got a new long study table and photo frames to put up our wedding photos. upon reaching home, dearie fixed the table up (which caused abrasion to his hands due to the tedious work of manual tightening of screws into the table) and we packed our study room. It’s so spacious and neat now. somehow that packing stretched out to the rest of the house.

Dearie packed our messy store room while I cleared the shelves in our bedroom and guest room. He then packed the waredrobes in both the guest room and study room. We threw up boxes and bags of trash; things we’ve been piling up in our little house. After all the packing, I gave the house a nice vacuum and mop.

It did not end here. During the evening we went to jurong west for dinner then to giant for shopping. Bought a new shoe rack (something we’ve been wanting to get for the longest time ever!) and a book rack.

Dearie pieced them up together, like a surgeon of carpentry works. By the time we completed revamping our house, it was already 12am. Dead beat, we plonked onto the study chairs, admiring at our accomplishment.

I can only go “WOW!”

impressed. By very impressed! Haha. we spent about $250 on 3 pieces of furniture and it made our place a lot neater and created more space.

I’m glad I’ve got a d-i-y dearie who hands-on-ed on many things in our home. From curtains to mirrors, tables to shoes racks.. we saved a lot because we bought the d-i-y furniture which we could assemble. Dad and mum will be at our place from Thursday, so I’m sure it’ll impress them lots too. meantime, tricia has to ensure all that stays in place, clean up the house on Wednesday again to make the house comfortable for them to reside. =)
