Hello long weekend!

Gonna take full advantage of Vesak Day so this weekend will be a busy busy one... 

Early morning will have me calling Starhub to postpone my fibre installation appointment. Would have been nice to receive a reminder sms/call (no thanks, Starhub!) and I was too caught up at work the last couple of days to remember to. When it finally occurred to me to do so after dinner just now, it was too late and the general customer service hotline was already closed for the day. The helpful CSO on another team told me my appointment was scheduled after 12pm, so I'll need to call first thing in the morning at 8:30am.

After breakfast, I'll be heading over to Choo Chiang Marketing (which has a branch just across the road from our new place) to check out Legrand Mallia switches which comes in matt classic white. Seriously contemplating changing all the glossy white ones from my ID's electrician. Besides a personal preference for matt over glossy any day, I really do not like how the switches feel when you press on them. My ID has agreed to change them for me, if I provide all the switches (at my own cost, obviously). Need to watch my budget though so still mulling over it...

Following switch shopping @ Pioneer Junction, I'll hop back to our place to meet with a sales representative from MagicSeal for a no-obligations quotation. Saw a group discount thingie going on on Qanvast a week or two back, so I sent in an email to register my interest. We don't have grilles on our windows (asked my ID to remove them since I prefer an unhindered view and having one less thing to clean) but I need it to be cat-proof for Bailey's sake so will need insect screens for her safety. Not that she jumps much - she's more of a bush dweller (ie. prefers low-level hideouts, namely under the bed) plus the fact that she's been a little unwell from what I suspect is the onset of arthritis. She's getting on in age just like her Mummy. :(

From our place, it's directly off to Lush & Mula Mu to shop for a wooden frame + fabric 1-seater sofa/armchair followed by Pitch Perfect 2 in the evening and then dinner with a couple of friends.

Sunday will see me back at our place for DIY wallpapering in the foyer, with a friend's help. Fingers crossed that it'll all go well and easy! Hoping to get some cleaning in too, if we can manage it - since carpentry will be going in the coming week. Finally. :P

Monday is chores (laundry) day back at my parents' place and also Bailey's monthly shower time. Poor girl needs a shower really badly, with clumpy fur that she hasn't had the mood to maintain these few days.

Busy indeed but hopefully, a fruitful weekend!
