The past two weeks has been really hectic for me. It started off with loads of work to do at the office due to the year end, pending & new investigation that need to be wrapped up, my brother's wedding preparation, the flood in the southern states and the mrs. condition due to the pregnancy.
It all started last week when I was supposed to do finish tidying all the outstanding works, only to find out that there has been a major failure that warrants investigation. Then there was the news that flood has rendered three southern malaysian states into emergency status. On top of that, the mrs. has to visit the gynae twice for some observation wrt the pregnancy.
Then the weekend came with all the wedding preparation and the actual function itself. I've applied leave until the year end to finish off my annual leave allocation, only to find out that there was an urgent meeting on Christmas Day, plus I was on standby at the operation room after that. Then came the day trip to JB on Boxing Day, in which it was raining and gloomy all day long. I had only slept 4 hrs max. per night.
Then when I got back, the mrs. was in such a weak condition that when we went to the GP, he straight away asked for her to be admitted to the hospital, as it was a severe case of Hyperemesis Gravidarum. So off to the ER we went, had her admitted for three days. This is when I discovered I was I in the wrong profession, as a mere 5 mins visit by a so-called 'specialist' could earn him RM150++(Our gynae was away for a holiday, hence we got the backup gynae, which was supposed to be a 'class' above than ourr normal gynae, but I found that his bedside manners was lacking as he keeps fidgeting around and never had any physical contact with the patient and yet command high RM for his consultation). Anyway, the mrs. is still in not in the clear, hence our plan to 'balik kampung' for the upcoming Eid is stil 50/50.
The new year is just around the corner and I still haven't settled the boy's school matters yet due to all the event above, and I still need to do some shopping during the year end sale. Hope things would turn around for me in the coming new year.
p.s - to the kind friend who has been my GPS during the JB trip, your assisstance was highly appreciated. Without the help, I wouldn't have discovered the 'seedy' side of JB ;-), cloak & dagger operations of some 'stall' operators and the thought that Pasir Gudang in on the same direction as Stulang (guilty of being a KL'ite all my life)
