Prayer for the sick

Dearest Friends / silent readers (I know some of you who know me read my blog),

I ask for your favour to pray for my grandma (our close relatives) who are in ICU since last night. My mom, my uncle and my auntie rush to the hospital after I received a call (around 9pm) and they were there until 1am.

And I called my mom this morning. She told me that she's in the hospital sending coffee to our relatives who are waiting patiently. And my mom told me that she still asleep.

I still can't believe it. I saw her last Saturday evening when we went back to kampung to attend a traditional wedding ceremony. And she were sitting happily with her grand daughters.

Watch, O Lord, with those who wake, or watch, or weep tonight, and give your angels charge over those who sleep.

Tend your sick ones, O Lord Christ.
Rest your weary ones.
Bless your dying ones.
Soothe your suffering ones.
Pity your afflicted ones.
Shield your joyous ones.
And for all your love's sake.

Amen.

Family Day Out

Last Saturday evening, I went out with my mom, my SIL and of coz my "handsome nephew", Damian. We went to Tanjung Batu Beach coz my mom teringin nak makan ABC. Siapa tak teringinkan, the weather really hot now a days. Especially in Bintulu. (but then, thanks to God, last night hujan lebat sangat2. I love it).

So, we headed to one stall kat Tanjung Batu. Ramainya orang.

Tada.... my ABC. sedap nyer (meminjam kata2 Damian).

Besides ABC, my mom kepingin nak makan chicken wing.

So, no rojak buah & sotong kangkung this time.

Pesanan Penaja - Sotong kangkung at River Front is the best. Betul. Tak tipu.
Damian. He loves it very much.

He asked his mommy if he can swim at the beach.

And I told him children are not allowed to swim without his swimming trunk.

Merayu-rayu asked his mommy to bring his swimming trunk. Mengada-ngada. haa.haa..

So, itulah some of my activities during the weekend. Sekian, terima kasih. (",)

Monday Blues

Hello. how's ur celebration for Mother's Day yesterday?

As for us, we just celebrate it in a simple way. I just orderd a cheese cake for my mom, my sister in law and my auntie. Since we just having dinner recently on my mom's birthday so she requested that we just celebrate mother's day at home. Besides, Damian still not feeling well kan.

By the way, ada funny story to share. It's about my cousin, Brandon. He's 9 years old. You know what he said while I was about to take out the cake from it's box? Kak Bie, dik enda tau celebrate Mother's Day. (Kak Bie, you can't celebrate mother's day yet). And I said why? You know what is his answer? Laban Kak Bie bedau bisi baby, kak Bie bedau nyadi mommy gik. (Because Kak Bie still don't have baby, U're not a mommy yet). My family laugh loud with his answer, especially my mom.

And I told Brandon, i'm not buying this for me. And I know i'm not yet a mom. I bought this for them I said. I wonder manalah budak sebesar tu tau benda macam ni. hee..hee.hee.. There is one time few months ago rasanya. I'm not feeling well so I took MC and went to the clinic. You know what Brandon said to his mom. "I know why Kak Bie not feeling well". And his mom pun asked why. And you know what is his answer, "Because Kak Bie ada baby".

You know his mom and my uncle memang gelak betul2 masa tu. And my uncle pun tanya, how do you know Kak Bie pregnant? His answer lagilah lawak, because I saw on the tv, when people get married they will have a baby. Aduh!!! my uncle lagilah gelak kuat.

When they reached home, my uncle told me about that story. Brandon Brandon. Kuat berimaginasi betullah budak tu. haa..haa...

Anyway, dah melalut lak aku.

The Classis Cheese Cake - Sedaplah.

As usual, Damian dari petang nak potong cake. He said it his mom's birthday. My auntie not in the picture, nak low profile katanya. haa..haa.haa

Tribute to all Mums!

MOTHER

This is a truly BEAUTIFUL piece. Please read this at a slow pace, digesting every word and in leisure ... do not hurry ....this is a treasure..
For those lucky to still be blessed with your Mom, this is beautiful. For those of us who aren't, this is even more beautiful.

For those who are moms, you'll love this.

The young mother set her foot on the path of life.. 'Is this the long way?' she asked. And the guide said: 'Yes, and the way is hard. And you will be old before you reach the end of it.. But the end will be better than the beginning.'

But the young mother was happy, and she would not believe that anything could be better than these years. So she played with her children, and gathered flowers for them along the way, and bathed them in the clear streams; and the sun shone on them, and the young Mother cried,
'Nothing will ever be lovelier than this.'



Then the night came, and the storm, and the path was dark, and the children shook with fear and cold, and the mother drew them close and covered them with her mantle, and the children said, 'Mother, we are not afraid, for you are near, and no harm can come.'



And the morning came, and there was a hill ahead, and the children climbed and grew weary, and the mother was weary. But at all times she said to the children,' A little patience and we are there.' So the children climbed, and when they reached the top they said, 'Mother, we would not have done it without you.'



And the mother, when she lay down at night looked up at the stars and said, 'This is a better day than the last, for my children have learned fortitude in the face of hardness. Yesterday I gave them courage. Today, I've given them strength.'



And the next day came strange clouds which darkened the earth, clouds of war and hate and evil, and the children groped and stumbled, and the mother said: 'Look up. Lift your eyes to the light. 'And the children looked and saw above the clouds an everlasting glory, and it guided them beyond the darkness. And that night the Mother said, 'This is the best day of all, for I have shown my children God.'



And the days went on, and the weeks and the months and the years, and the mother grew old and she was little and bent. But her children were tall and strong, and walked with courage. And when the way was rough, they lifted her, for she was as light as a feather; and at last they came to a hill, and beyond they could see a shining road and golden gates flung wide. And mother said, 'I have reached the end of my journey. And now I know the end is better than the beginning, for my children can walk alone, and their children after them.'



And the children said, 'You will always walk with us, Mother, even when you have gone through the gates.' And they stood and watched her as she went on alone, and the gates closed after her. And they said: 'We cannot see her but she is with us still. A Mother like ours is more than a memory. She is a living presence......'



Your Mother is always with you.... She's the whisper of the leaves as you walk down the street; she's the smell of bleach in your freshly laundered socks; she's the cool hand on your brow when you're not well. Your Mother lives inside your laughter. And she's crystallized in every tear drop. She's the place you came from, your first home; and she's the map you follow with every step you take. She's your first love and your first heartbreak, and nothing on earth can separate you.
Not time, not space... not even death!

Mom, I know you won't read this, but, I want to tell you that we love your very much. I don't know what will happen to us without you besides us all the time. And I know it very hard for you without Dad with us. But you didn't give up. You want the best for us. And you did it mom.

And to my friends, Izzah, Mimie, Abby and the rest, Happy Mothers Day to you all.

My lunch

I went out with my sister and her colleague this afternoon. Sekali-sekala konon. But it damn too hot outside there. On our way to go out for lunch we saw a big smoke and we expect it might be fire ke?

Duh!!!! Memang betullah, the firemen tengah struggling nak padamkan api tu. But at that time, those api dah tak marak lagi. Ni sure dia orang buat pembakaran terbuka nak bercucuk tanam kat situ. Issh.. Geramnya.

Dahlah sekarang cuaca tengah panas, yang pegi bakar belukar tu buat apa? Nak rasa jerebu lagi ker??? Sungguh aku marah dengan manusia-manusia yang sebegitu. huh!!!!! Sabar! Sabar! Sabar.

Anyway, lupakan pasal pembakaran terbuka tu.

Tengah lapar katakan. huhuhuhu. Tapi cuma aku jer yang makan. My sister & her colleague kenyang sebab dia orang ada makan-makan kat office tadi. Biasalah dia orang tu, asal jer Friday confirm time Tool Box Meeting ada makan-makan. And my sister told me it her turn to give a safety talk today. hee..hee..hee.. Padan muka!!! Takpe, skill public speaking tu. haa..haa..haa..

OK lah, my lunch for today simple jer. Since aku sorang jer yang makan.

My drink - Teh C Ais Special.

My lunch - Nasi Pattaya Special.

And now, i'm full. Best nyer kat office, boss takde. Yeehaaa!!!!!!!

p/s: still thinking what is our plan on Sunday for my mom, auntie & mommy Damian. I asked my sister and she also don't have any idea. Nak pegi dinner ke or BBQ ? Need to ask my brother this evening lah. Brandon punya jawapan paling best, Kak Bie meli kek ajaklah kak Bie.

Our team - Gaban. The winner for all games.

Well, lots of activities during our team building. Ada magic carpet, berakit, management hunt, physical challenge and many more. But then, being me, I just stay. Aku main permainan yang mengunakan akal. haa..haa..haa..

Aduh! ingatkan senang rupanya memang sakitlah buat crossword, puzzle, pengetahuan am apa lagi. memang kita org perah otak betul2lah masa tu. But then, we score a lot tau. Tak rugi perah otak. And the rest of our team enjoy it very much. Biar pun berpanas but they said the enjoy the physical challenge, and especially berakit. sampai basah-basah dia orang kayuh. Sungguh enjoy tengok dia orang. I love to join them but then I have to be careful. Ialah, kaki aku kan pernah terseliuh. So, need to jaga-jaga jugaklah. Takpelah, perah otak punya challenge pun OK jugak. (",)

Good Morning!!!!

Night has ended for another day,
Morning has come in a special way,
May you smile like the sunny rays &
Leave your worries for some other day...
Good Morning!!
Smile, it is the key that fits the lock of everybody's heart...
Keep smiling always..

Hujan oh Hujan

It's hot here in my hometown. I think more than a month tiada hujan.

But then, yesterday evening. Whoah!!!!! It's so windy. And suddenly it cloudy. I said to myself, hope it not a false alarm cause on Sunday the same thing happen but then no rain at all.

And, I thank you Lord. What a blessing. It's raining. Heavily. Even only for an hour but it really a blessing for us here.

And in few more weeks, Mr. Hubby will be here. Yahooooo!!!!

Pregnancy Calendar

Opsss.. Jangan salah sangka yer. hee..hee..hee..hee..

Actually we received these items from one of our Vendor. Our Vendor having a meeting in our office, as it is his first time came here so he gave us (our dept only) a token from his company.

Satu tu calendar, satu tu pulak as you can see, sure dah tahukan. Well, aku nak storylah pasal that calendar. As i'm working in "this" department, so we all memang rely to this calendar very much tau. And tak tahulah kenapa they call this 'calendar mengandung'. When I first join this dept pun aku macam terpinga-pinga. Then barulah aku faham how to use this. hee..hee..hee..

Tapi jangan salah sangka, i'm not using this for pregnancy, aku belum pregnant lagilah. (",)

No Tittle

Aduh!
Demam lagi.
Blame the weather.
It really hot in Bintulu.
I think more than a month hujan tak turun.
Tonsil itu benar2 menyakitkan.
And my lip ada rashes. I thought allergic or apakah? But doctor told me i'm STRESS?
Ia ke stress????
