Air Quality

Hopefully the air quality would improve as we approach the weekend. It was atrocious earlier in the week, with Idlan being one of the sufferer. He was close to needing nebulisers on Wednesday.

We could hardly see the skyline then, but from yesterday, it was becoming clearer. I could see KLCC from the highway as I was driving in - in the traffic jam obviously.

It was hazy even first thing in the morningFrom earlier in the week, after duskHopefully with that, I could take my camera for a spin. I was still getting acquainted to the XT-1, the latest addition to the family. So, watch this space …

It Rained!

I got a free afternoon post-call and I had to settle my bills and buy some toner for my printer. Where else to go but Bukit Bintang and of course Low Yat.

The highlight? The new Mac Pro - which I got the chance to sample first hand - and the rain had returned. And it returned with a vengeance!

Luckily I was stuck at Low Yat during the rain. More excuse to just take some time and cruise around for a bit.

The Samsung Chromebook caught my eyes, but I couldn't justify any use case scenario for the time being. I got wifi at work and Gombak House. Blazing broadband at the apartment.

So, I shall be dreaming if the Mac Pro tonight .... It would have to wait for a few more months until we move proper to Bangsar. No space at the Gombak House at the minute.

Call Weekend

On call and it had been steady today. Things were moving rather slowly, but I didn't really complain. A quick read on Facebook and Twitter showed people complaining about the traffic in town. It had been worse than usual.

Plus the problem with water shortage. Not a fine time to be spending the weekend at home. One of those which you wouldn't mind being on call actually.

The sun was still beating bright outside and it was going to be another hot day with no sign of rain .... Happy Weekend all!

Back to Gombak

We finally moved back to Gombak. My Mum-in-law’s maid was leaving for Indonesia permanently and at the moment we were in the middle of sorting out a new one. She needs some helping hand and Anita obliged.

So, the first evening we had yee sang before dinner. We didn’t have time to go out for one before the Chinese New Year, so we made do with what was around.

It was all the same. But it meant extra travelling time for me every day …

Catching the Bug

After the hospital visit to see his cousin Sarah the other day who was down with dengue, Idlan seemed to have been hit by a bug.

He was up last night with fever and diarrhoea. Poor boy. He was absent from school this morning - much to the displeasure of Irfan - and was resting at home with his grandfather.

I will be heading to Gleneagles after this to join Anita to visit Sarah again. She might be discharged later today. Hopefully Idlan would also settle by then.
