Who do you think these people look like?

Mash-up from the past.

These pictures were taken many months ago but were sort of forgotten. But now, they’re seeing the light of day!

# 9 August 2009. Was at the pet grooming shop when a fella brought in this shih tzu with massive, dirty hair and long dirty nails. According to the owner, the dog hadn’t taken a bath for 2 weeks. The dog’s fur was matted all the way to his skin it’s impossible to comb them out. So there’s no other way of making him handsome again other than to get a full shave. 2 weeks? Looks more like a year of neglect.

# 19 October 2009. At the bf’s office. Me. His coffee cup, a gift from me. Hmmm, don’t ask.

# 24 October 2009. This is a picture of 13 boxes of takoyaki balls, which translates into 39 pieces of balls shared among CL, KY, ST, Haze and myself. We were in Singapore for Nuffnang Blog Awards and while checking out the city, won some Takashimaya vouchers that we used to redeem 13 boxes of takoyaki balls. Tragically, by the final 2 balls, our stomachs gave up.

# 12 January 2010. Like mother, like son.

House Renovation Update #2 – Backyard

While my last post on our house renovation was about all the demolishing work, this time, I’m going to focus on the backyard/laundry area.

In the beginning, the backyard was horrifying. It was covered in weeds and heaven knows what species of creepy crawlies. In fact, it looked so scary that a neighbour who happened to be doing her laundry in her backyard asked us if we could get someone to clean it up because she’s dead afraid of snakes lurking in the massive bushes.

# This is the backyard before.

Well, my contractor said there were no snakes although the guys whom he hired to do the cleaning up were pretty cautious threading around our backyard. Great news for me because if there were any snake found at all, I would never be able to live in the house peacefully for the rest of my life because all I’d be thinking off are snakes in the sewage, snakes behind my washing machine, snakes in the drain, snakes slithering into my kitchen, snakes hiding in my toilet bowl, etc.

Okay, that’s it about snakes. Lets see what our backyard looks like now :)

# The chicken fence has been removed and replaced by a brick wall.

# The wall with rectangular holes for ventilation will be plastered eventually and the chicken fence door will be replaced by a steel door.

# View from the inside of the kitchen. So clean, sunny and bright now.

I’m very pleased with the results and can’t wait to see the final outcome. The next time, the backyard will be filled with plants in POTS where snakes cannot hide.
