Goodbye

It is the last day of 2010, and tomorrow marks a new year. It has been a fruitful 2010, with me achieving some of my goals. Hopefully more will come next year.

How we are going to celebrate tonight? I do not think it will be much celebration, just a lovely dinner with my family. We discovered Baby boy developed chicken pox last night so at doctor's advice, we will try to avoid public places. Luckily he is not having any fever and still much an active boy. After all, we have spent great times during Christmas Day. We had nice Italian dinner on Christmas Eve and on Christmas night itself we have Japanese dinner.....so New Year Eve would be a modest affair for us.

Rest at home

Dad has finally checked out from hospital on Friday afternoon. Doctor gave him medication for his condition. He is diagnosed with a small growth in his neck near the lympha node. That thinggie (which doctor will monitor from month to month during his monthly check-up) has caused my dad's hormone to increase to 300 plus (which is not so good) and his loss of appetite and sometimes having fever and dizziness.

So now dad is recovering at home as he could not do much. Walk for a short distance, he will complain dizziness. Sit for a while, he will complain his stomach not feeling well. He has lost 5kg since November as he did not eat much due to stomach discomfort. Just hope that he will get well and that benign is nothing but non cancerous.

What a week!

Sorry for not much updating lately. Have been nothing but emotional exhausted and physically busy.

This week is a very hectic week. Flying out and in, spending a night in KL and dad admitted to hospital on the day I flew was enough to make me feel down.

On Sunday evening, I broke one of my teeth while eating chicken rice in Hainan's Street! S**t! I haven't got time to fix it yet. So everytime I drink water (cold, hot or lukewarm) I can feel the pain in that particular tooth. Hope to be able to visit a dentist tomorrow once everything is settled down.

On Monday, I went to KL accompany hubby's cousin for an interview there. We stayed for a night. Luckily no delay in Air Asia flight. We reached the LCCT around 7.15pm. Throughout the flight, it has never been bored as cousin and I chatted all the way. We did not feel how the time flies that fast. Then we used the bus down to KL Sentral and taxi to our hotel. We reached the hotel around 9pm and after throwing our luggage, we headed straight to Jalan Alor for our dinner. Phew! I even bought some bbq bacon slices from Loong Kee for hubby.

The next day, after cousin's interview finished around 1115am, we headed to Sungei Wang via LRT and spent almost 2 hours there before we headed to LCCT for our flight back. I did not spent much but bought 2 dresses there. Since hubby bought lots of clothing for the kids when he went to Johor last month I did not buy anything for the kids.

As for yesterday, after a busy morning at the shop, I visited my dad who admitted to Normah Hospital since Monday. Doctor could not find anything wrong with my dad who complained of dizziness and loss of appetite since he came back from his Indonesia trip last month. He lost so much weight since then but thank god he started to eat solid food for past few days. There is still no green light from doctor on when he could check out as doctor wanted him to stay for further observation. Luckily he can claim his insurance for the stay-in. As for my mum, she is supposed to fly to Singapore with my sister to attend my cousin's wedding tomorrow. By right, she would be there by this time, but alas! She has to stay to look after my dad. Hopefully he will be able to check out by this week.

So what a week I have! And next week would be another busy week as it is my stock check week. I think I have to put up a tent in the shop and stay to do the stock check! Lol!

Christmas mood

Christmas is coming soon. Everywhere is decorated with beautiful garlands, wreaths and Christmas trees and Christmas songs are played. Don't you like December?

I love December because it is the last month of the year and it is the most festive month of all months. Started with school holiday, then Christmas and New Year. Not to mention the famous Year End Sales with a lot of bargains and offer from the shops. It also means time to gather around family and friends. Usually we will have dinner at our usual cafe on the Chrismas and New Year eves, but have yet to decide where to celebrate this year.

Have you put up your Christmas tree? There would not be any tree for us this year. Too lazy and no time to put it up.....Lol!

3 years of my thoughts

November 30 2007. That was the day that everything started here. 3 years have gone and I have been through the ups and downs as a blogger and a person. I cannot believe that I have gone this far.

I have followed food blogs for a year before starting my own blog. It was hard to decide what for my blog, but end up a chuck of everything in one blog. I thought that I should have a place to store my thoughts, update on my life and create a space for my children to read when they are older.

The first time I blogged, I was blogging about my little gal. That time she was a year plus, but now she is 4 years old plus. Now I am a mother of two adorable children. Last time I was working in my first and the longest employment as a marketing personnel. Now I am an entrepreneur and doing MLM. Life has indeed changed since then. There is no turning back for me, but I am happy with what I have and achieved so far. Hopefully more to come.

Along the way, I met many nice and wonderful bloggers. They inspire me one way or another with their postings. Although we never meet, but almost every day we will visit each other blog and make comments. The thought of leaving comments make one feel appreciated because it takes time for people to read your post and write comments in the comment box. So there are true friends that you can meet in the blogging world. I know I did!

Never thought of making money out of blog; although I did have some in my Paypal account. Lol! What is interesting about blogging is that it is your personal blog, you can write what ever you want to and should not be judgemental about what I write. All are my personal opinions and what interested me in my daily life.

I still love to write in my blog. I shall continue to do so and hopefully more will come along the way......Happy blogging everyone.

The mood of holiday

People start to talk about Christmas shopping and I read in today newspaper that clothing prices going to be marked up next month due to insufficient supply of cotton. So guys, this month would be a good time to shop may it be for Christmas, New Year or Chinese New Year.

Over here some of the CD shops playing Christmas songs and once a while I would hear CNY songs play! Lol! I haven't start my shopping yet, anyway nothing much to shop. My little girl will be going back to hometown next week. Without her, we would not in that mood to put out the Christmas tree and shopping for present. However maybe will shop for her new shoes when she is back after Christmas next month. Have you started your shopping spree?

It is time to give back to the children in need too. In my previous employment, I would give away some present for the Love-In-A-Box organised by SEDC, but since left the company I would directly go to the Salvation Army. So it is time to clean up my children's wardrobe for old stuff. Hmm.....

No vacations

School holiday is just around the corner. And it means my little girl will be away for almost a month to be with her grandparents. The other day while chatting with my MIL, she reminded me again on my girl's holiday. I normally pack her stuff on the night before, so no hurry there. My MIL even joked about bringing Baby Jay home but since either me or hubby not tagging along, she is worry Baby Jay will be homesick. Since he was born, he has never been away from home, so it is not a good risk to take.

It has been more than a year since hubby and myself went back to his hometown. Now with my business and him just started working in new company, it is hard for us to take vacation. Suppose to visit Singapore end of the year to attend a cousin's wedding but we cannot make it. How I wish that we can take some times off, maybe next year for a family vacation. Hmm, need to think of a way.
