A little dose of Me.

Rusty’s birthday was last Sunday the 3^rd of September 2006. His first birthday!! I decided to have a small get together with a few friends to celebrate his birthday and this is how the story goes…

The day before 02.09.2006

In the morning, mom and I went for yoga class as usual…it was great…but i was interrupted by my sister at about 11.00 saying that she was reaching the sungei besi toll…(from JB) It was pretty weird because i was in weird positions when i had to answer my sisters calls..heheeh…i was lying face down with my right hand and left foot lifted of the ground ..at the same time holding my mobile with my left hand and speaking to her…..well at the end I left the hall to speak to her because she couldnt hear my whispers. I asked her to take the LRT to the Bangsar station so that mom and I need not walk out of our class to pick her up from pudu. Our yoga classes are held in the Bangsar Sai Center excellent teacher!! Anyway we left to pick her up at approximately 12pm.

We quickly stopped at Saluga Rajes in Bangsar to get our eyebrows done…they do excellent work too!! We then dropped mom off at home and came back to a shop in bangsar, ‘Balloons Bouquets’ to blow up one of the ‘Scooby Doo’ balloons I bought from the shop couple of weeks ago with helium. Right after that, we did a bit of shopping in giant to get the ingredients for Rusty’s Peanut Butter Carrot cake. For those who would love to make a cake for your dog…I’ve decided to make dog cakes during my free time….so just give me a buzz k….hehe..anyway…..ordered the cake for us to eat as well….I didnt make the cake for us because I knew there will not be enough time to make both cakes.

Mom was busy doing the final touches to Rusty’s black bow. The bow is made out of velvet material and so is the strap. Mom attached blue Swarovski stones and bluish purple sequins to the strap. As soon as we got home, I started on the cake….Mom decided to do the icing the following day in the morning….so she just cut the cake into the shape of a bone and let it cool.

Morning…..03.09.2006

First thing in the morning i wished Rusty a very happy birthday. He seemed more excited than the usual..hehe….anyway we started cleaning up the house and arranging the chairs and tables…Mom did a lot of work cleaning up…..Rusty wasnt very helpful..he just sat on his big bum and watched.

Gowri akka and I decided to blow up all the balloons and get all the decorations done.

Meanwhile dad decided to take Rusty out for a walk just to tire him out. Dad took him on a 30 minute walk, which really tired him out. This was done to ensure he is not too hyper during his party… After he returned from his walk, I gave him a nice good scrub. Towel dried him and put him in his room to rest for awhile.

Everything was done by 10.30am. Mom used creamy cheese instead of icing for the cake!! oooo how he lovesssss cheeeseeee!!!!

I decided to have my bath early because my darling sis wanted to go to the saloon….So we popped by to see if we could get our hair done on time…. the hair stylist said it would take only 10 mins!!! i could see the big smile on my sisters face…hahahha… I told her if she finishes blowing her hair first,she can take the car and collect the cake….yup her hair was done pretty fast…so i gave her the keys and she left …a minute later my hair was done!!! So i decided to wait for her…she didnt not bring her mobile along so it was impossible for me to contact her. I wasnt sure at that point of time if i had made the right decision by giving her the car keys..since she is hopeless with directions!! hahaha..sorry akka…heheh…well I thought I’d give a call to my best best friend Diva to see where she was…..and her sister Navina answers her mobile and tells me that she with my sis!!! Next thing i know i see my car pulling up infront of the saloon with Diva in the drivers seat!!! turns out my sis was trying to figure out how to get back to the saloon to pick me up and diva happen to be near Giant and she spotted my sis in the state of confusion..hahah..so she tried explaining to her how the get to the saloon but my sis was still not too sure…so darling Diva told her sister to wait in the car while she drove my car to the saloon. I then dropped Diva in front of Giant where her sister was waiting. It was already 11.45am. We rushed back home.

Afternoon….03.09.2006

Mom was anxious because it was time for guests to start coming and we were not home yet. There was a sign of relief on her face as she saw us match into the house…

I put Rusty’s bow on and he looked so handsome:) I would like to thank Diva for taking me to the place where I managed to get a ready made bow!!! Thanks babesss..muahhh!

I catered food from Sakuntala Restaurant in Klang…Anyone need a caterer.?.. please have Sakuntala Restaurant in mind..you can get the contact details from me….the food was good….mutton paratel, chicken sambal and 3 vege dishes. The food was delivered by Palani at around 12.15pm. Only then i realised….oh gosh i forgot to cook the rice!!!! I got nice scolding from mom because she had told me to order the rice from Sakuntala Restaurant as well but I think I got it the other way round. Thank god for Diva…she rushed me to a restaurant where we bought the rice..heheh…Thanks heaps babe!! what would I do without you??? muax!!! Then…..we rushed back and neelima, suri, susi, sharmila and Param where already there..hehe…..my uncle and aunty where there too… so we decided to have lunch first since some other guests had not arrived yet…

At around 2.15pm we decided to bring out Rusty’s cake. We sang happy birthday……but the poor fella was scared of the candle…hehe… he then slowly approached the cake and started eating the cake….he loved it!!!! he wanted to carry the cake away at one point! Hahha was funny….

My uncle mentioned that this is a memorable day because its the first dog birthday he has attended…hehe. Well there’s always a first for everything..right?

Ps: I managed to paint Rusty’s room as his birthday present. The 2 walls are painted with a stone colour and the feature wall is a light blue. I painted paw prints on the wall to give it more of a doggie room touch. The light blue wall had stone coloured prints and the stone coloured wall had light blue prints. It turned out pretty cute..

I would like to thank those who made Rusty’s birthday a memorable day..especially my mom, sister, dad and Diva. Muax!!!! Thank you Neelu for taking the video and wonderful photographs as well.. muahhh!
