I Am Still Here But…
November 2, 2006 by Gaman
One of my readers emailed me the other day asking how I’ve been doing and if there’s any updates coming up soon.
I guess I share some news here for those who have been wondering if I am still alive or not LOL.
If you’ve followed my earlier posts, I am in the midst of helping my parent renovating their house. This past few weeks have been especially hectic since the deadline is fast approaching. What deadline? Well someone in my family is getting married; and no it’s not me LOL.
Anyway, I’ve been spending less time online lately and I feel I’ve missed a lot of happenings online.
I know, I could’ve used the late nights to blog but as I said before, I find it’s harder to get into the right frame of mind when I’ve been all over the place during the day checking out the contractor, traveling to KK looking for building materials, managing budget etc.
Sometimes I feel lucky that I am self employed otherwise I’ll be fired already for keeping myself busy with personal project while working for someone else. Now I could take all the time I want to do what I want to do as long as I remain productive that is.
For the time being I only log on to monitor my server, answers customer emails, check out the local weather report and my forums. However this does not mean that I abandon Sabahan.com totally. I still reply emails and moderate comments here.
I have my assistance to work on some other stuff but updating Sabahan.com is not one of them unfortunately.
So in a mean time, if you are looking for building materials around KK, I could recommend some good places where you can get some good and reasonably priced materials.
Normalcy will return at the end of November and hopefully my regular posting habit will prevail by then. I hope I do not keep you waiting for too long. Hey I’ll post once in a while orait? 
ihhh i’m also starting to get busy this.. now that the OC for my new house is out… maybe you can email me your list when you are free.. esp the shop name, location and materials they supply… thx kio!
