Happy Monday Morning

It was raining heavily when I set off this morning, making the usually heavy traffic to work now heavy and slow. Took me close to 90 minutes to reach the hospital and it was 9.30 when I finished the ward round.

I then set off back into town, again facing heavier traffic than I expected. This time to accompany Anita at the dentist. She didn't know that I was coming, and our driver told us when I called that try were late to reach the clinic. So, when I reached the Tawakal, Anita was still with the dentist.

I was waiting outside at the waiting area, with sound of drills coming from behind the door. Hmmm .... I was sure Anita was having fun!

Changes of Plans

The morning started smoothly enough with the nice weather and the quick drive from the apartment to the ward. The ward round also went fine. We then went for a late breakfast at Bangsar Shopping Center where we bumped into one of the boys' buddies and their parents.

Unfortunately, that was the highlight. It went downhill after that. Or at least, not according to the plan.

The original idea was to head out to Low Yat to survey for the laptop for the Haematology Society. But with, the breakfast cum lunch finishing later than planned, we decided not to go together. I would go to Low Yat alone - Anita likes to walk around Pavilion usually.

I then got a call from my sister that my Mum had been under the weather since last night. She had a slight virus I think and had been feeling sick overnight. Much better today, and we bought her and Dad some tea. We hang around until late afternoon, until I had to go back to the hospital to review a couple of the inpatients.

So, two big plans for the weekend had to be shelved. The photo walk and the trip to Low Yat for gadget browsing. Never mind. At least I got to spend some quality time with Anita and the family. Happy Sunday evening all ....

Apartment Time

After returning from Great Eastern Mall, we settled down and then was surprised that there were no water when we wanted to hit the shower. Hmmm! I guessed Syabas was at it again. No water during the weekend - usually it was the low water pressure. And this was despite the heavy downpour in Klang Valley in the last few days.

Anyhow, we decided to pack up and head to the apartment for the night. A nice bak I thought for the boys, Irfan especially after his ordeal at the dentist.

It was 11 pm and both of them were still with their iPad. They planned to wake up late tomorrow morning .....

No Walk Today

The weather had been awful all day. And as I finished my clinic to get home to prepare for the photo walk, Anita called me to say that irfan had been crying all morning with a tooth ache. We needed to get him to a dentist.

Getting an emergency dental appointment on a Saturday afternoon at such short notice was never easy, let alone to ER somebody who could handle children. But we were in luck. Anita managed to get an appointment at 3pm at Great Eastern Mall.

And the dentist was a great one. Although Irfan was having his usual tantrum at the beginning, the dentist spent time with him and won him over. He tolerated his X-rays and had his fillings done, with minimal fuss. It was awesome. And Anita was pleased.

By the time it was over, it was already almost 5pm. It was still raining heavily outside. Even of I made it to the meeting point for the walk, with the wearer being this dull and wet, plus the fact that I did not know any of the group member, I decided against it. Spent the time with my boys instead. And we had tea at Alexis. Irfan hardly had anything to eat all day because of the ache, and finished his plate of pasta in record time.

Irfan was no longer in pain after the visit. We would definitely go back to see the same dentist if the boys had problems from now on.

How Was The Weather?

I was just finishing my clinic when I peered outside and realise how the weather was like. It looked awful. And how would the photo walk go?

The morning group had assembled and were ambling their way across town, wary about how the weather going to turn out later today. Hopefully there won't be flooding ......
