Chak!
Sorry, dryer baru repair, jadi sibuk buat laundry...haha!
Yups, athlete, I still haven't popped. Nora carik I...dia nak tolong urutkan ker
But thanks gals for even remembering me.
Semalam gi check up, I'm already 37-38 weeks. Baby around 2.9 kg. Padan lah aku rasa berat semacam. Doc kata anytime, tapi by next week, kalau masih belum pop, must do VE. Argh... *takut*

You tak pergi the Gimmil carters sale at tampines?

Ouh you dah pergi semalam eh? Yups, i agree, many many clothes for girls, but I was glad I didn't think with my heart. I only bot a few dresses for my #2 (insya-Allah girl!) And some tops for my #1 and some colleagues' son. 3 for $10 for osh kosh tops, can't resist seh.
My dryer is fisher & paykel. When i called for repair, that lady said, service charge aje $60+, nak turunkan dryer lagi $20, and the repair can cost anything between $60 to $200. I told her, beli baru kan lagi bagus! Tapi thank goodness, bila the man came for repair, we only had to pay $20 for replacement part. Tu pun hubby kata, kat kedai biasa, it's only a few bucks. High maintenance ah dryer ni....!
Do you have one, or planning to get one for yr new home?
Nshah
insya-Allah. Eh part yak tak busyuk lah, kalau BF, bau alrite per, cam bedak, haha!
Nora
Yeah i kemas2 jugak hari ni. And today I realised that I might not be cut out to be a SAHM. I think I'll go mad cleaning toys up all the time, and laundry memang tak habis2. haha...!
I have another batch of hand me down baby clothes to wash & dry. Tapi part nak lipat...adui hehe...kecik sangat

Is the fisher and paykel good? How often do u use the dryer and berapa agak-agak the bill? We just bought Citygas dryer and water heater. Thought of just buying the dryer to be used in this kind of weather. If we don't decide now, we'll end up buying an electric dryer later. Hopefully bill tak melambung sangat.

Alah, apa brand pun takpe, janji it does the job!
My electricity bill, tiap2 bulan, paling sikit $198. Perit pocket. Only 3 pple tinggal tau :S
But then it depends on the type of housing you're staying in too due to the rebates kan?
Betty
If you're asking me, I pun tak tau bagus ke tak. I think the maintenance part yang mahal. Service charge aje dah $60+. But thankfully, the replacement part yang rosak only $20 +.
Nshah
Betul. When my dryer rosak, my tingkap rumah terok seh. Macam2 baju tergantung. Tapi rumah I memang takde tempat jemur kain lah, that's why we decided on a dryer when we moved in.

Athlete, San
Ya lor, I pun rasa my pocket kerrrinnngg sekali
At times, can hit up to $250! And once, I was so kering, the payment rolled over seh, and in total I had to pay about $600+ 1 shot. Super broke that month.
Actually I rasa dorang pun go by estimates. So dengan selambanya dorang estimate a high amount. Coz I notice, kalau I tak pakai banyak pun, the amount tak turun banyak. Could also be due to my old & inefficient air con

Smalldreams,
You're right abt the estimates.
Once they've established a general pattern, the amount will be around the same.
Which I think its a bit unfair.
Last time, when it was just 2 of us ,the bill was around $70-80.
And there was once went I was away for about 2 monhts, the bill was also around there or slightly less only.

what to do..
I'm looking forward to my new place, at 17th floor, hopefully banyak angin & tak payah pakai dryer :S
Athlete
Hopefully you can control your usage and they won't over estimate too much.
My mom's place yang 6 orang tinggal pon, bill baru $130 gitu aje. Haiz...!
I'm rather bored now. Maybe shud take 1/2 day leave, if not rasa cam makan gaji buta since almost all my tasks have been completed.

hello! interesting topik eh!
)
okie la, foe me i also pakai dryer.
now electricity bills hover ard $120-$160.
its quite normal for me.
cos dulu i pakai aircon and dryer its also ard tat price.
i tink the brand of the dryer does make a diff.
dulu i pakai Fisher Paykel. it takes a longer time to dry my clothes. like cotton, the cycle is more than an hour. so dats y the bill mite be higher tak peah? now ive switched to electrolux, the cycle is shorter and dryer nie ade sensor, so once clothes is dried, it will auto stop. in a way, it helps to save electricity bill also kot?

kalo kain da kering it will stop. then will do auto reverse.
so kain2 pat dlm takle ronyok sgt.
cos if clothes left too long in the dryer it will turn very crease!!
btw, aku ngah carik IRON-er!! hahaha...!
bile le org nak invent! tak le berbukit2 kain2 pat rmh nie!

U start train Adam & Sarah to iron their own clothes.
Nshah
You sure pakai laptop etc all boleh contribute to such a high bill? My mom's place pun my bro & sis always on the laptop & comp tapi tak pun sampai as high as yours.
Think important to switch off the mains also when not in use.
Another one yang makan electricity is airpot.
Athlete
Ya lah, think today hopefully I can cabut a bit earlier. Finishing some final work, pas tu, jalan.

San,
True, normally contracts are drawn in favour of the agencies, if we terminate early there's penalty on our part, unfair right
Nshah,
Thanks, surgery will be done this Thursday (have to admit on Wed afternoon).
FYI - tadi my boss called and asked me to come back to work, I am now undecided whether to go back *fickle minded* kan ?????
