A Birthday, New Blog and Lost Car

Wow.. it's been a while since my last post. More than I week, which is so unlike me. It was a pretty "eventful" week... not the Kim Kardashian kinda "eventful" but just the I'm-the-busy-mom-and-wife kind of eventful.





Anyways, last Friday, we celebrated my firstborn's 6th birthday! I love calling him my firstborn! LOL! There was no big shindig, just a cake cutting ceremony at his kindie and dinner at Kenny Roger's Roasters. I have to say though, eating at Roasters isn't as good as I thought it was, anymore. :(

What else.. oh yeah. My entertainment blog, Just Press Play, that was hosted at Today(dot)com was moved by the company to Blogdog(dot)com. Urgh. So I decided to leave and re-brand my entertainment blog and I'll be launching it on May 1st! Yup! This MIDNIGHT!

Also this week, I've been busy thinking about getting whole life insurance because my husband was saying that he's only covered as long as he works at his company. So we have to think of something for AFTER he retires. It's a long way to go.. but if we get it now, the monthly payments would be cheaper.

Last but not least, the most eventful thing of the week -- My husband's car got STOLEN in front of my MIL's house. I don't want to get into the details because I'm exhausted just thinking about it.. But yeah. That's what happened. So as for the moment, we are CAR-LESS. We're doing fine, though.. don't worry about us. :)

When the going gets tough, the tough get going.

Shemah,  April 30, 2010 9:55 PM  

Hahahahaha!! THANKS SO MUCH for the pressies, debbs! The children love it.. siap show off to syura when she got home from work.. You perasan kah? the wrapping paper for the buddy's pressie is really similar to the cake?? Got stars and pressies and it's green!! :)

Shemah,  April 30, 2010 9:56 PM  

No problem DEBBS! :) :)

Wenny,  April 30, 2010 10:11 PM  

The cake looks unique ... have not seen such deco before. You made it?

Shemah,  April 30, 2010 10:18 PM  

Hi Wenny! LOL! Now THAT would be the day when i start decorating cakes. I can't even color properly.. haha..

I actually ordered the cake two days before.. and surprisingly, my son chose this design instead of ben10 or transformers or all the other superheroes. :) I ordered it from a bakery called Brumby's. :)

LadyJava,  April 30, 2010 10:38 PM

Shemah,  April 30, 2010 11:22 PM  

Iya LJ!! berani lah orang2 skarang ni! ish ish.. alaaa LJ! Wira je.. Wira.. keta rumah sebelah the new Saga or the toyota.. tak pun kena kacau. Haihhh.. dah lah the same thing happened back in 2005. Geram! so angers!

Ish ish.. nanti i nak pay nick a visit! and share with him my story! haahaha..

Hahaha sorry lah takde chop chop over there.. Kesian orang chop lepas tu i tak commited nak update points and what not. always ketinggalan. tgk lah MSE ni.. belum update2 lg. Have to update soon lah but seems so bz all the time. Haishh..

Mimi,  May 1, 2010 10:43 AM  

Happy Birthday to Buddy.. I agree Kenny Rogers is not as good as before... No more originality, kan?

Sorry to hear about your family car.. Hope you'll catch the thief!

Shemah,  May 1, 2010 10:50 AM  

Hmm.. okay lah jugak. But I silap. Should've just ordered from Secret Recipe. Worth more.. this one was 1kg... for the price, can get a 2kg Secret Recipe cake. Ish.. salah bah me. :( Nevermind, lesson learnt.. now i know better.

Shemah,  May 1, 2010 11:15 AM  

Hi Mimi!! :) Thanks for the birthday wishes! :) Big boy edi Buddy kan?? Anyways, yalah.. I think that will be the last of the last of my visit to Roasters.. :(

Thanks Mimi.. yalah, kereta orang besar2 ndak kena ambik.. kereta kami yang buruk tu jugak laah kena ambik..

Soulie,  May 3, 2010 11:40 PM  

Happy birthday to ur firstborn :) sorry to hear ur car got stolen. All this pencurik sgt menyusahkan org!

Shemah,  May 3, 2010 11:45 PM  

Hey Soulie!! :-D :-D

Tu lah.. dah nama pencurik.. memang takde kerja lain.. asyik mencuuurik aje! LOL! Kesian lah hubby terpaksa naik bas to central and then from central take another bus to KLIA. Pulang boleh lah tumpang kawan yg tinggal area2 subang ni.. memang tak ramai lah but ada lah sorang dua..

Hopefully new car loan approved!!

Shemah,  May 3, 2010 11:46 PM  

Oh and thanks for the birthday wishes! My firstborn tu so sedih now.. his first tooth baru came off.. and he cried and tak nak pi skolah!! LOL!

Dee,  May 4, 2010 3:15 AM  

Well, Happy Birthday to your first-born. Hopefully, your car will turn up, in good condition. It sounds like a very busy day for you. :)

Nick Phillips,  May 4, 2010 9:26 AM  

Aiyooo, I know how lousy it feels to have you car stolen. Crooks are getting bolder these days. Maybe we should all chain our cars with those huge bicycle chains, that might just work ... LOL!

Happy birthday to you firstborn :D

Shemah,  May 4, 2010 9:42 AM  

Hey girl!! :) THanks so much for the birthday wishes.. He's a bit traumatized right now 'coz he lost his first tooth! Anyways, at this point, I'm not hoping on getting our car turn up. Most likely, we'll just claim insurance and get a new car. :(

Shemah,  May 4, 2010 9:44 AM  

Hey Nick! That's why lah.. we need bicycle locks, steering locks, door locks, gate locks.. just like how Mr. Bean locks his car. He needs to open a couple of padlocks just to get in his car! LOL! :)

Thanks for the birthday wishes! I still can't believe that he's so big already!!
