I am so torn on which model to get. between this and and electrolux basic model. <br /><br />pls share you thoughts n your oven. I am not in favour of this ONLY because of it's electronic timer.. I prefer mechanical.. as i do not really have to worry abt the elctronics motherboard going hay wire n that will need fixing.. Im quite old school...<br />hope to hear from you soon.Sandy Moohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12729867550757564887noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4805570821469912515.post-57985590208296689602010-11-21T21:05:21.697+08:002010-11-21T21:05:21.697+08:00Shirley, it will probably take about 6 weeks.

It is actually more feasible to get a new place than to refurbish your current house. However, we like our location so much that we won't be shifting to anywhere. I only kept one bottle (comes with a xmas hat and scarf) and threw away the rest, still feeling a bit heart pain...and I was so busy that I didn't even have time to take any pictures :'(Happy Homebakerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15310704979379806678noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4805570821469912515.post-11470115493658235772010-11-12T02:34:25.310+08:002010-11-12T02:34:25.310+08:00Oh, I forgot to mention.

Another shelf of canned coke were opened up and poured away when we realised there were some leakage.

Another consideration is my kids are still young and their schools are within the same neighbourhood. So we're staying put in this "old" house for now, at least for the next 5 years.<br /><br />Don't worry about boring us with your renovation updates.

I kept them for almost like 8 years. If not for making space for my boy who entered P1 this yr, I think they will stick with me for life hahaha... till now I still borrow reno books from the library!<br /><br />But, not sure if it is really good to reduce storage space. You see, I am also a minimalist. My kitchen cabinets are not to the top and not to the bottom (if you know what I mean) and yes, it is really difficult to find storage... but perhaps also a good point, it makes me think twice, thrice before I buy anythg. <br /><br />Can't wait to see the new house.sherlynhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06112381909989864683noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4805570821469912515.post-87104999322834242722010-11-11T21:41:32.655+08:002010-11-11T21:41:32.655+08:00Wow, this is pretty major!
