The countdown...

The countdown has began. Both for Ruth's PMR and my final days with the company I had been attached to for the past 9 years. Looking back, it seems that it was only like yesterday, when I stepped into its halls and now, it is almost time to bid adieus. But. it had been a good 9 years, filled with memories, highlights and of course, the "blues". A journey in itself, a part of life's travelogue.

Ruth is also counting the days to her PMR, which will be held from 7th to12th October 2009. A cumulation of three years of lower secondary education. Hopefully, she will do well.

Well, that's life. Sometimes, it can be so routine and mundane that you can predict what lies around the corner. But there are also times, when you do get a tight slap on the face and a jolt out of your skin! But, it's a learning process all the way.

Just a glimpse.....

Yes, it had been a while. Actually, more than a month since I updated my blog. Reasons being busy with office work, managing the household and supervising Ruth studies. Her PMR exam is only a month away and she is kept busy with her revision.

Mum and my brother John came over to visit two weeks ago. It had been a while since they last dropped by Bintulu. We had our reunion and celebrated mum's birthday. She still complains of aches and pains here and there. After her accident in June, she had some difficulty walking and not as mobile as before.

Hubby also came back last weekend. His plant ran into some glitches and he was kept busy for the past 3 weeks. He was exhausted and down with bronchitis and flu. Luckily, not H1N1. After some medication and rest, he recovered and flew back to Malacca on Wednesday.
