More Chores, Little Wins
We met you again after breakfast as we returned from a round of errands. We had picked up an office chair and several household items from Mr. DIY, which already made the day feel productive.
Working From Home
Once we were back at the house, we got straight to work. We continued editing our videos while Cat focused on small chores in and around the home. We even managed to capture some of her work on time lapse, which later turned out quite nicely.
Lunchtime passed without notice. We were still full from our breakfast of nasi dagang and nasi kerabu, so there was no rush to eat again. We also called our regular plumber, Ah Huat, who told us he would come by at five in the evening.
A Schedule Change
We kept working and later walked back to the rest house at two for a quick shower and a change of clothes. Just as we were getting settled, Ah Huat called again to say he could arrive earlier, at three instead.
Right on time, we walked back to the house and found him waiting patiently. He replaced the faulty kitchen tap, helped by the photos we had sent earlier so he could bring the right part. The job took only ten minutes. The total cost, including parts and travel, came to RM80.00 (≈ USD19/EUR17), which we felt was very reasonable.
Late Lunch and More Errands
After that, we went out once more to Mr. DIY and bought more supplies worth RM104.70 (≈ USD24/EUR22). Feeling a little hungry, we ordered takeaway through Grab Food from Nasi Ayam KJ for RM32.80 (≈ USD8/EUR7). We chose chicken rice and iced drinks, placing the order just before four. Our late lunch arrived about forty minutes later and hit the spot.
With food out of the way, we returned to our chores and work for the rest of the evening. By half past seven, we were back at the rest house.
Dinner Together at Last
We were too tired to drive out, so Grab Food helped us again. Wanting local food, we ordered nasi minyak with chicken gravy and iced tea with Khemok Chicken for RM43.40 (≈ USD10/EUR9). The order went in just before we left the house, giving us enough time for a quick shower before the food arrived.
Downstairs, the rest house had a shared common area with tables, chairs, and a small pantry. We gathered there and finally shared a proper meal together as a family. It was the first time we had all eaten together since arriving.
A Long Day Winds Down
After dinner, Brendan went back to her room. We stayed behind, one of us finishing some work while the other relaxed and scrolled through social media. Feeling a bit too full, we ordered fizzy drinks through Grab Food for RM39.09 (≈ USD10/EUR9) one last time. The delivery took a very long time, so we quietly noted not to order from Titan Café again.
By half past ten, we headed back to our room, hoping for an early night.
Stay tuned for our next video as we went on a market hunt.
