Its a col…………ld and wet weekend!!

 

The rain has starting since sat evening and not yet stopped till this morning.

Wonder why got so much rain? Will there be flooding in some parts of singapore again?

its such a cooling weather to sleep in, snuggle up in bed if we can…

most importantly, Baby Justin is now resting at home and apart from the medicine feeding time, he is almost back to his old self (minus all the whining and stickiness when i am at home).

 

Looking forward to the holidays this weekend!!! Woohoo!!!

Stressful week

This is the most STRESSFUL week of my life.

Apart from the presentation dry run that was supposed to take place on tuesday,

it was the admission of my precious son to the hospital due to KD.

I think i should dedicate a separate entry for the sickness and ordeal itself.

Now, we are almost like medical expert, knowing so much

about this sickness. From 0% to 95% now.

All started off with his fever last thursday, which we all though was

just the normal children fever, plus his premolar was coming out..

never did we expect that things will become that severe.

on Monday morning, we brought him to NUH emergency again and

there after, he was warded as an emergency KD case.

U can see how miserable he look...

Pic taken before he was warded

showing all the clinical symptoms

(almost like hit jackpot... because he has 100% of all the possible symptoms)

soon, he was pretty sedated

It was really a heart breaking moment, to see him on drips,

so lethargic, dont even have strength to move about or open his

eyes on the first day.

Basically, he was sleeping through the whole day and barely

awake for more than 1 hour that whole day.

Did 4 more blood tests, one echo scan, 2 ECG, 1 X-ray.

And on night 1, doc came and said that he was

NOT responding as well to the treatment as what she expect.

Cos he was running a high fever and heartbeat was

all time high @ 180+.

So they standby ICU and the whole house-team to

be on 24hr standby and red alert.

Second day was worse.

because he was starting to get dehydrated, his lips cracked.

So it was painful even to drink from his bottle.

No choice.

Doc had to add one more drip to him.

HEARTPAIN TO THE MAX!!!!

After my presentation, i chiong to the hospital, and i almost broke down

on the spot, cos he had tubes all over and he was crying like

a small kitten, cos he kind of lost his voice also.

SIGH~~~

Thankfully, most of the rashes all over his body and palms subsided halfway

through the treatment.

By yesterday morning, his treatment was completed.

And praise the Lord.

Baby Justin fought the battle very well.

So far, the only rashes left are those on his legs.

which the doc says will take a couple of weeks to fully subside.

Now, we are waiting for the doctor to give him the report card to go home,

as they are keeping him under 48hrs observations to see if there is

any reactions to the treatment and ensuring the fever does not come back.

I am praying that Baby Justin can go home tomorrow.

I believe he will enjoy himself more when he is at home.

A happier soul also allows him to recover faster and better.

Even though medically, doctor say that he need 4-6 weeks to fUlly recover,

and there is a 3% chance of relapse, and that

this is a long term sickness that need prolonged

followup, i am rejecting and cursing all these in the

name of Jesus!!!

My baby is going to be up on his feet soon and back to his

happy days, crawling and drooling ard!!!

Get well soon baby!!

ask and it shall be given!!

Bible says, Ask and it shall be given.

Once again, God is good.

I have only joined my company for about 4 months and i am really

quite fed up with the small pathetic pc monitor that i was using

(not mentioning the slow CPU that comes with it).

I been asking, or i should say, bug my manager for a bigger monitor..

but never got it so far...

until

finally

today!!!

YAY!!

Now i have a 19inch monitor!!! So happy!!!

A happy employee is much more motivated to work, don't u agree!! =DD

Wedding planning

Recently, i have 2 good friends who are in the process of preparing for their wedding.

Looking at how they are going through the whole process, started me remembering my own wedding preparation 4 years ago.

Gerald proposed in Oct 2005, we got ROMed in 2006, and had our customary, holy matrimony and wedding dinner in 2007. In a way, we were more fortunate as we kind of had more time to plan and get things prepared.

But frankly, other than settling the dinner venue and the gown package, all other things only start kicking off like 3 months before the actual wedding day itself.

I still remember how stressful it was during that time. Because I also tendered and decided to move to a new company just 1 month before my wedding. So having to cope with the new working environment and juggling with all the wedding preps, it was really one stressful period.

But eventually, everything fell in place nicely and somehow, the wedding day just passed so fast.

Now, whenever i hear of people preparing for their wedding, i am also excited and one thing that i always tell the couple, is that you got to really enjoy the process, since its really once in a life time thing. Though its easier said than done, but really, after the whole thing, when you look back, you will really miss the times (though i don't know how many people will agree with me. Hahahaha) . Personally, i am a gown fanatic.. so thats the part that i really enjoyed the most!!! Trying on gowns and going for the photoshoot are the best part of the whole planning process. :-)

wedding is a happy occassion. Just do what you think will make you happy. Thats the most impt.

Year end close

It has been a lonnnnggg time since i stayed in office till midnight.
In another 25 mins, its going to be midnight already.

This is my first year end close in the current company, and its really no joke.

How to ever close in 3 work days.... i seriously think its madness.

The whole of yesterday and today, the 2 GL accountants (aka me and my neighbour) has to close like 5 sets of books and in the midst, problems after problems came up....


So now in the office, there are just 3 of us. and I am waiting for my neighbour to pass in her last journal entry, for me to recompute the whole tax and pass in the tax entry, before i can go home to my bed.

man... i am tired.. very exhausted.

i wish weekend can come soon.... so that i can have some rejuvenating time with justin......


*yawns* and the waiting continues....

bye bye 2010, hello 2011

One always say, how you end the year will determine how you enter the new year.

If you want a good year ahead, end the year with a big bang.

2010 has been a roller coaster year for me.

New role as a mum, new house, new responsibilities, new job, new colleagues, new friendships, not forgetting new problems, new challenges, new heartaches, new trials.

I will say, 2010 has been one of the most challenging year for me so far.

But still,

there are many happy things that happened in 2010.

Such as

1) A happy Baby - the joy and pride of mama kris.

All things are worth for this precious one.

2) a wonderful hubby who stand by me at all times,

and in all circumstance, my source of support.

this year marks our 10th year of pak toh.

my Soulmate, my best friend.

3) very blessed to have a set of parents and in-laws who love my son alot.

And of cos, always helping me out whenever i need to work or to have me-time.

Awesome.

4) A bunch of funloving people from W477. So proud to have the chance to lead this group of people.

5) Wonderful friendship that was strengthened this year.

We hang out so often that we formed the formidable gang "刚"!! :D

Precious friends that i gained in 2010.

My fellow accountant buddy.

The couple that can sing very well.

The couple going to get married in 5 days time.

The couple that is like my spiritual parents.

My spiritual mentor and best friend.

Our outings.

Believing that 2011 going to be even more awesome.

I proclaim it by faith!!
