Lovely Gifts With Sweet Memories

GOING BACK TO MY "EX-OFFICE" YESTERDAY BRINGS BACK SWEET OLD MEMORIES!

When I stepped in and sat on my old place, it felt like "Good" so "at-home" that for some seconds, I forgot I had retired because when the phone rang at my table, I automatically took it up and said "Hello!"  Oh my goodness!!  I was not supposed to do that!  And the best thing is... I didn't even realize my blunder till my colleague who sat beside me laughed out loud.  Then only I realize my mistake and still in a shock mode, I quickly hung up the call.  Oh dear, I hope the other side would not "swear" and "curse"... That proves how BLUR I am when I am in the midst of doing something!!

It has been more than two months since I stopped working..... I might not remember much about my work but I certainly do remember what others have given me before I punched out for the last time...
Some of the lovely gifts from my colleagues... I will always remember their kind thoughts!
 Love the foldable mattress..... soft and nice..
It is now utilized in Johor... 
I received this fleece blanket from my boss personally....
I will also take it to Johor.... it is "colder" there.. .
hahahaaa..
Induction cooker... 
I planned to take this to Johor too the other time...
But last minute, I forgot to put it into the car....
Love my Red Handbag too...
On the last day I received this handheld Massager!
Given by my colleague who wants to remain anonymous... 
hahahaaa... 
Really touched by his gesture....
He knows I am always complaining of shoulder pain and needs massaging every now and then...
So he told me that the best present he could think of is this electronic one...
I do not have to rely on anyone else after having this....

Looking at the gifts above, I really appreciate their kind thoughts and concerns.... If I could turn back the clock, I think I would like to retire the second time! hahahaa... crazy!

Talking about buying gifts, there is one website now which provides your one stop shopping destination, shopping is made very easy with iprice!  What do we have to do?  Just log in to their shopping categories and from there, we can also check out their offer coupons.  With iprice, they aggregates all the products from the most trusted e-commerce shops in Asia and globally compile them onto one platform. They are always looking for the latest coupons, deals and voucher codes in Malaysia in order that we may save big on every purchase.
Now I am thinking of buying some baby presents... my two ex-colleague has just given birth and I need to get some cute baby stuff for both of them.  Well, I am going to shop online here, no hassle and I can take my own sweet time to browse over them!

  4. Lovely gifts! What wonderful colleagues you have! When I retired, mine pooled together and bought me one thick gold chain. Would probably be worth a lot more now.
