Our Hari Raya Holidays

It was an eating marathon holiday for us this Raya holidays. My parents from Ipoh and brother and sil from Singapore were here too. You can expect to see pix of food in my next few posts in my 3 blogs for the next few days 😛

Yesterday after my brother and sil returned to Singapore, followed by my parents who returned to Ipoh, we went to Mid Valley Megamall. We had lunch at Crystal Jade Restaurant.

Today after lunch, my hubs suggested that we go for a massage since the both of us are overworked. So off we went to a nearby massage shop and had a good massage which lasted an hour.

First, I had my feet soaked in hot water while the masseuse from China gave me a shoulder massage.

Then, I told the masseuse that I have headache and she brought me to a room and massage my face and head. That was SO relaxing and comfortable but rascal #2 kept going into the room and kakacaucau… by talking to me, touching my body and going into other rooms to peep at other people *slap forehead*

After the head and face massage was the foot and leg massage.

After massage, we brought the girls to the hair saloon. School is going to reopen on Tuesday and had I not brought Alycia for a hair cut, her teacher will surely intimidate her and ask her to have her hair cut. Chinese schools’ ruling is that the hair cannot touch the collar!

After massage and hair cut, we had fruit rojak and cee cheong fun by the road side at 3pm. Not my idea at all as I absolutely hate the sweltering afternoon heat but hubs was already eating there with Sherilyn while I was inside the hair saloon with the rest.

I am having a terrible neck and shoulder pain now. I must have strained those parts of my body last night. Last night, the hubs allowed the 3 girls to bunk in with us on our king size bed. So the 5 of us slept on the bed! Alycia occupied half the bed, Sherilyn took a quarter, Baby another 1/8th and I took the remaining pathetic portion at the side of the bed. Hubs slept at the foot of the bed LOL!!!! With only 10-12 inches of space to sleep, I slept like a frozen mummified mummy and had Baby kicking me and searching for my boops the whole night. Now I feel like I’d been beaten up. The pain on my shoulder and neck are making me feel terribly down and out. I need another massage to fix my neck and shoulders. I have SOSed the hubs to come back from his basketball game to give me a good electric massage with the OTO Hans acu-points and nerve stimulator.

How have your holidays been?
