LURAY CAVERN & SHENANDOAH SKYLINE
YOGI BEAR'S JELLYSTONE PARK
Last summer holiday we went to Yogi Bear's Jellystone Park in Hagerstown, Maryland.... We stayed for 2 nights at the Log Cabin in the park. The children enjoyed it very much... many activities they did including spending time in the heated pool with waterslides and also pedal carts around the park. Mamanya spent time cooking and cooking and sleeping in the cabin!! Enjoyed jugak tu.. Maybe we will go to another Yogi Bear's Jellystone in Shenandoah this summer holiday, Insyaallah.. kalau ada rezeki dan masih bertugas di sini...

A ROOM WITH A VIEW
Every morning, as I enter my office room, first thing I will do is to draw the blinds of the window. I will take a deep breath when seeing the view from my window. It really makes me feel good and fresh seeing the greeneries and birds flying on the sky. It feels like recharging the energy before starting my work.. Of all the four seasons, winter, spring, summer or fall, I love most is during fall, seeing the leaves turned their colors into gold, red and brown, so beautiful and so fascinating.
This morning, as I draw the blinds of the window, I could see only a few trees remain green, the rest without leaves, only brown branches left, so gloomy even with the sun shining. Tengok rumah sekeliling kawasan tu pun macam rumah tak ada penghuni, rumah berhantu ke? Kadang-kadang terfikir juga.. Dah boring ke aku dengan Washington, D.C. ni?? Well, itulah kehidupan, ada masa gembira ada masa duka... Sama dengan cuaca... ada kala panas, ada kala hujan.. ada kala terang, ada kala mendong... Anyway, anak-anak ku masih menanti kedatangan snow... They said, it is going to snow soon... tak de punnnn... angin ribut ada lee... Hopefully it will snow soon…. Not only the children enjoy the snow, even adults also love seeing the snow falling down from the sky, including this emak budak….. How beautiful ciptaan Illahi…..

Ring… Ring… It was not the ringing of the phone… but I was looking for my ring… I think I had misplaced it, where could it be? I looked in the jewellery box, in the drawer, in my handbag…even in my jeans’ pocket, but it was not there…I knew that I was wearing it the other day. Uhukkk…. Uhukkk…. I was really, really upset thinking that I might have lost the ring, it is not because the ring maybe so expensive, or maybe it is so beautiful, (Well, It could be expensive!! and it is beautiful to me….) but it is because it was a birthday present from my beloved hubby… How could I was so careless… I always tell my children about being careful, but now, I, myself being so careless and losing something that is very meaningful to me… Aaahhhh… Please, everybody in the house, help me search for the ring.. Baba searched upstairs, Sina looked downstairs, in the kitchen, in the attic, under the bed, in the bathroom…. NO ring was found…. I hope I did not drop it somewhere outside my house..
I left the house to the office feeling so sad and mad at myself…. Well, maybe it is not my rezeki, but still I feel bad about it!!!! I remember my Arwah mum used to say, when you received a gift from someone, always treasure it, no matter whether it is valuable or not. And when giving something to someone, give something yang you suka or sayang… not something that you dah tak suka…Itu tak elok, that’s what my Arwah Mum said. It is true, isn’t it?
In the office, I have to concentrate my mind on my work… But ring.. ring… ring… still on my mind…. Late in the afternoon, my hubby called me and said that he FOUND my ring near the shoes rack!!!…Alhamdulillah!! You do not know how happy I was… Itulaa, kalau rezeki tu tak akan ke mana, tol tak?
The best part of it, is, Baby accused Baba of stealing Mama’s ring, since she saw Baba wore it when fetching her from school at the bus stop that afternoon…. Haaa….haaa…haaa.. Poor Baba….
