Overnight in Bangsar

I had to attend a meeting on Saturday afternoon while my boys were occupied at home doing revision for their Al Manaar exam next week. I could see that they were bored. I then suggested that we pack up and spend the evening at the apartment. Just to chill out if nothing else.

Everybody was happy.

So, right after the meetings, we drove to Bangsar, first for dinner and then to apartment with the boys already in their pyjamas.

We just sat in front of the TV - Battleship was on I thought - while flipping to check the football score. It must be about 2 in the morning when we finally slept.

We could do with that from time to time actually. Quite enjoyed it. And I only had a 10 minute drive for my Sunday Morning ward round this morning. And I was in a good mood ....

Enders Again

I don't normally have get the time for movies but this week alone I went to the venoms movies twice. Worst still, it was for the same movie, Ender's Game.

I went with Anita on Thursday after work, but we felt that the boys would enjoy it. So, I booked the tickets this morning before work and as soon as I reached home, we set off for Gardens.

The boys really got into it. A few gasps from Idlan as some of the twists in the plot were revealed. Then came the barrage of questions from the boys on the drive home. Sufficed to say that the decision to watch it again was a good one ....

Slow Afternoon

I was on call today, but the day had been kind so far. A couple of admissions into general ward, and the customary ICU transfer now settling in nicely and improving fast.

The boys and Anita was at the apartment, with our maid being excused for the afternoon to meet her friends and transfer some money home. She and her sisters had been updated constantly about what was happening back home with Typhoon Haiyan on the rampage. She appeared worried.

It was also raining outside and with the cool draft in and around the apartment, Irfan was having his nap. Things appeared quiet at home, which was nice to see. Unfortunately, we would be heading back to Gombak tomorrow. Idlan had been sulking during lunch about having to move back. He had really grown fond of having his own space at the apartment. He had been lining up his toys and Lego bricks all morning. What to do …..

Saturday Blues

I just had a look at the lab blood taking area and the queue was scary. It looked like I won't be able to start the clinic any time soon.

So, for the past hour, I had been camping at the lounge, watching the same news on the TV. Rather hungry but too early for lunch. So. Nothing but waiting fir the results for the time being.

I have a lunch and afternoon meeting to attend to in town but was really not in the mood. Might go to the meeting aftergetting changed at home, and would be bringing my camera along. The meeting would be near KLCC, so I might go snapping pictures after that .......

Long Saturday

There were not many activities during Ramadan on the lecture and conferences front. And right after Raya, everything seemed to be getting into heat. We have lectures and meetings held every weekend and yesterday, I went to one at Le Meridien.

Unfortunately I was too tired to get involved since it was post-call. I was too tired and at times nodded off. My afternoon rounds finished just after two but I decided to have a nice quite lunch before heading for the talk.

The end is nigh. This was the last talk of the day. But I had a meeting after that.Taking my boys off to dinnerWhat was this squash court doing in the middle of the mall?After the talk came the council meeting and dinner. I stayed until after the meeting but decided to leave before dinner. I took the boys out instead to The Curve, have dinner with them as well as do some shopping with Anita.
