Cleared Up by the Afternoon

I was dreading the drive home after the heavy rain in the morning. It slowed down during Friday Prayers, but the sky was still dark. Even my friend who was in the city centre during prayer time was dreading for the worst and posted photos of high water level on Sungai Kelang. I imagined that should it rained further in the day, there would be more flooding.

But the cloud became thinner and sun was out by early afternoon. That took plenty of the heat we were experiencing away, and the drive home was a breeze.

But rather than going out tonight we decided to stay in. I was still not feeling 100% and could do with a bit of a rest. A quiet night in would be great. Let's see what was Puan Anita cooking......

Weekend Coming

Well, had a good night sleep after a few nights of sore throat and body aches. The bar weather than we have been having also didn't help, and with the air conditioning in my ward needed repair - it had been extra warm in the corridor - wearing a lab coat felt like a challenge.

I'm on call for Haematology this weekend, but otherwise I expect to be free. Hopefully it stayed nice and sunny through out. It would be a bit of a bummer if it was sunny ball weekday and ended up with a stormy weekend. I might go into town again looking at the HTC One, being released in the middle of the week.

Last weekend was a weekend full of dinner with Mother's Day being the excuse. We might have a quiet dinner for Idlan's birthday since I will be on call on his actual birthday. Something to do during the weekend then.

All Stacked Up

The boys had an epic Lego battle last night, the one that they lined up on the floor the evening before. Lego bits were everywhere, but when I returned home this evening, all the bits had been stacked neatly.

Not sure how long that would last......

Work Started

I stopped by at the apartment this lunchtime to have a look at the work being done there to plug the leak. The leak had unfortunately cause the parquet flooring to peel out and gone soggy. These needed replacing as well. So, the work was a bit more complicated to make sure the aesthetics of things were maintained.

Today, the affected parquet were removed, and put onto a pile while waiting for replacement parts. Not sure how much longer that's going to take, but it better be sorted out before we start moving in our stuffs proper.

At least the place was kept neat. There were hardly any dust about.

A Bit of Reading

Even though I have left my academic post, I had still been contributing by reviewing some papers for the local academic journal. There were times when this could be tricky, as most of my input turned out to be to correct their English and less to improve the actual structure.

But lately, I found that the quality had definitely improved over the last few months. Which can only be a healthy thing.
