at Thanon Rajuthit

We still don't have our internet connection. My old account with TOT couldn't be transferred to our new place so we're advised to apply for a new telephone number in order to get our internet connection. They promised to have it installed to us after 2 weeks and that is TODAY! If we still don't have it today, what else could we do but just wait and follow-up our internet provider. I think we're doing OK without internet these days. I could do my household chores without interruptions...he..he...I could finish my laundry for few hours only and folding of our clothes and ironing them weren't delayed anymore. My hubby is also enjoying his time tending his plants, preparing Hyzyd's playground and recently painting our living room!

So far, we're doing real good in our new abode. We felt really at home and we have many plans for this place. Maybe we'll stay here as long as we're still here in Thailand. I love the neighborhood, our "Soi" , our lane. It's so quite and peaceful except for dog's barking at dawn. Well, at least I could wake up as early as 4:00 am. Thanks for those dogs posing as my alarm clock...LOL!

We felt lucky to find this place. My co-teacher who happened to pass by our place can't help but admire our new rented place. It's way cheaper than other available houses for rent in the city plus we enjoy having front yard , backyard and side yard..teehee... I'm grateful that though our place belongs to one of the busiest streets in the city, it's noises at night won't reach and disturb our rest. In this street you could find almost all kinds of establishment- entertainment, food, school , wholesale, retail, etc. We're near the market, inland resorts, hardwares , souvenir stores, car accessories stores that sells almost anything you want for your car- from the smallest rearview camera, tahoe to cargo liners, and almost all kinds of stores are available in our street.

So if you happen to visit Hatyai City, don't miss to drop by our street at Rajuthit. Don't miss their eat-all-you-can steamboat restaurant with band.

Feeling at home

Our latest "moving" is the easiest I experienced. We're able to purchase boxes so we're able to keep our things in order. Unlike before, we only put our things in sacks...LOL! It's a total mess, I tell you. We just rented our friend's pick-up car so we don't pay much compared to the expenses incurred if we hired a moving company to transport our things. I could say that after two recent moving since last year, this is the "one"! I finally feel at home with our new place.

I would love to share to you a photo of our new place but we still don't have internet connection at home so I'll just show you later (about 7-10 days). As I said, I felt at home with our new place because it brings me to my childhood memories- wooden floor upstairs reminds me of my grandparents place where I love to lie down on their wooden floor and the blue flowery curtains reminds me of my grandma. She used to sew curtains and I love helping her put on curtains on their windows.

We're not yet done unpacking our things especially our clothes. This weekend, I need to iron them all and fold some of them while hang the ones we'll use for work and church. We still need to prepare the other room for Hyzyd. We plan to let him practice sleeping in his own bed in his own bedroom. I want a special room for our little boy, so I'm looking online for ideas and inspiration. For our own bedroom (it's larger than our living room), I plan to purchase treadmills or any refurbished fitness equipment to get in shape and stay in shape. If I'll have it in the comfort of my own room, won't I be motivated to lose weight, maintains good health and will look great in a bathing suit?

Anyway, I'm just happy and relax that we've finally found our home and we are finally in a fresh place-a place farther from the city proper and farther from pollution.
