Alone at the Apartment

I was on call on Friday, and on Saturday, one of my cousin in Kepala Batas was getting married. Since the date of the wedding was confirmed late and I couldn't make the necessary changes to my schedule, I couldn't make the trip up north. But Anita and the boys would be going and would be spending the Friday night there.

But unfortunately again, the MPV overheated again - like it did a couple of months back when Anita and the boys were planning a trip to Kuala Kangsar. They were stuck initially in Tapah and waited for the car to cool down. Once the temperature returned to normal, she had a choice to make. Either spent the night in Ipoh - my boys wanted to spent the night in a hotel - or return to KL. In Ipoh, at least she could visit her cousin as my mother-in-law was tagging along as well.

After some discussion, we decided that she would be better off continuing on slowly. The temperature stayed down and they reached Ipoh without any more drama. The driver would then find a garage the next morning to have the MPV looked at, before returning home.

After spending the night there, they decided to stay on until Sunday and just relax. Which was fine by me.

So, I was alone tonight at the apartment and would need to catch some sleep. I haven't yet fully recovered from the return trip to Lugano. I would also take the time to finish editing the tons of pictures I took during the trip and upload them onto my server. That should take me all weekend.

I just came off the phone with Anita and Idlan said that he missed me. I was sure that he was up to something there.....

Sun Not Coming Out

A quick look outside my window this morning summed up my mood perfect. Even the sun was reluctant to come out to play. How I wished that I could just lay there until the afternoon. But this being a post-call morning, I had to get going and sort out the admissions.

It soon started raining heavily. And that went on until I had my breakfast. Just arrived hone, and it looked gloomy outside. The plan was to visit KLCC to see an exhibition there, one which I planned to go to last weekend but couldn't make time. Hopefully I could find a couple of hours later in the afternoon to browse some book as well around there. I always browse for books when I was about to fly on a trip. Since I would be in Italy in a couple of weeks time, I might as well have a quick look for some travel tips.

Quick Look at The Final 

Just having a breather after quite a long day. Catching up with the French Open Ladies Final. And it looked like Serena was getting the better of Sharapova. Another break on the second set. It would be curtains soon if Sharapova didn't get her act together.

Maybe I'd call it the night and return to the apartment after the match is done. So far, it was more of a groanfest than a spectacle.

Post Call

With four admissions in the early hours, the call I did last night was much busier than I anticipated. I thought with the school holidays and all, the crowd would be less. I was actually looking forward for a bit of rest. Well, I guessed wrong.

So, after a dozen admission, and more work today sorting them out, I hope things would turn out OK. Anita had been doing well at home. The boys been behaving hopefully. Would be checking on my Mum later tonight after I reach home of course.

As for now, was just waiting for the clinic to finish before having a bit of a lunch. Would start my afternoon rounds a bit earlier today. Hopefully I could push off early later on. There was also the small.matter of cancelling this Friday clinic......

Back to Business

Subang ward round. Then ParkCity, a bit of groceries since I would be on call today. Lunch. Then dropping the groceries at the apartment. Afternoon clinic next at Subang before the admission started coming. And yes, plenty came.

After a quick dinner, I just hang around at the lounge waiting for Maghrib and more admission. Hopefully they came before midnight as I could do with a bit of rest tonight.

Happy On Call.
