New Abode Renovation Part 2
Yesterday was somewhat a fruitful day.
10am: Woke up in a state of utter denial and shock. My iPhone reflected 28 missed calls and they were all from Kevin, I knew he was already waiting for us at the car porch. I could not believe it was THIS late. Changed and left the house with Ziv without makeup. I knew that I got to vamoose before Kevin the volcano erupted.
10:30am: Reached MIL’s place. Deposit Ziv and off we sped to our new abode. Our interior designer arranged someone to cover our floor tiles and aircon with cardboard.
10:40am: Kevin led the contractor into our house while I stayed in car to makeup. We left new abode to go to Serangoon Garden for Mac breakfast.
10:59am: Managed to grab the Mac breakfast instead of lunch. Back to new abode to meet up with interior designer to have a final consensus on the design.
11:10am: We were late. The interior designer arrived earlier than us, for the first time. Brain storm, took measurements etc…
2:06pm: Designer left our abode, and immediately came the architect, developer OUB, management office head and some other uncles to discuss about the roof terrace. Arrived on a common consensus and we were glad that in the event our privacy is being intruded, we will win the case if we decided to bring it to the court. That’s enough. Not trying to be eristic, but somehow, people like them failed to think ahead.
3:15pm: Went to the bank to withdraw money, change NRIC address, bank in money, and sign up sales talk with Kevin.
5:40pm: Finally, we had time to sit down and have dinner together.
7:00pm: Drove back to the sojourn to wait for mover guy to send us the empty boxes and conduct on-site quotation. That’s the problem with apartment without guards, you have to be at home for very minor stuff.
7:30pm: Sped off again to town to collect our lightings since they closed at 8pm.
8:20pm: Back to new abode to store all the lightings.
9:00pm: Finally, ended the day with long hot bath and snacking in front of the TV to watch IP Man 1 with Kevin till 11pm.
I have never been so worn-out.
