More Chores!
We picked you up again returning from breakfast and running several errands including getting an office chair and provisions from Mr. DIY.
Once at the home I continued work on our videos while Cat busied herself with micro chores in and around the house. I managed to capture some of her activities on time lapse.
Lunchtime came and went but we were not hungry since our breakfast of Nasi Dagang and Nasi Kerabu was quite filling. We also made made a call to our regular plumber Ah Huat who promised to be at the home by five this evening.
We continued working then walked back to the rest house at two for a shower and change of clothes. Half an hour later just as we were about to get ready Ah Huat called to inform that he would be at the home by three instead.
At the appointed hour we walked over to the home to find Ah Huat patiently waiting for us. He began work replacing the faulty kitchen faucet, we had the presence of mind to send him a photo of the offending faucet for him to source a suitable replacement.
He was done ten minutes later. The replacement faucet and his labour costs including transportation came to only RM80.00 (approximately USD19/EUR17). We then headed out for another errand at Mr. DIY where we made away with RM104.70 (approximately USD24/EUR22) worth of provisions.
Feeling a little hungry we ordered take out via the Grab food app. After perusing the various restaurants available we opted for Nasi Ayam KJ and ordered:
- 2 Chicken Rice
- 2 Iced Lychee with Rose Cordial
for a total of RM32.80 (approximately USD8/EUR7). We placed our order at 3:50pm and the Grab driver delivered our late lunch forty minutes later.
Lunch out of the way we continued doing our respective chores throughout the evening before finally heading back to the rest house at half past seven. We were not in the mood to drive out to dinner so once again Grab fppd came to our rescue. Determined to enjoy local cuisine we settled on a restaurant known as Nasi Lemak Womoh.
We placed our order for three sets of their Nasi Minyak with Khemok Chicken gravy each with Iced Tea for a total of RM43.40 (approximately USD10/EUR9).
The order was placed right before leaving the home, we then managed to dash back to the rest house for a quick shower before the Grab rider delivered the food. The rest house has a common area downstairs with its own little pantry, a lounge area and several rows of tables and chairs where one could get work done.
Brendan, Cat and I gathered here at the common area to finally have a meal together as family, the first time since we first arrived here. After dinner Brendan retired to her room while I stayed behind to finish up some work on the laptop while Cat sat at the lounge scrolling through her IG feed. We felt a little bloated and in need of some carbonated drinks so for the third time today we placed an order with Grab Food.
This time the merchant was Titan Cafe and we ordered three soda based drinks for a total of RM39.09 (approximately USD10/EUR9). The order was placed at nine and we were made to wait a whopping hour and a half before our order was delivered. We made a mental note to avoid this merchant in future, and their one-star rating reflected this.
We then went up to our room at half past ten hoping to have an early night.
Stay tuned for our next video as we go on a market hunt!
