More Swimming

It was a really got day yesterday and as usual, Idlan went to the Club for his swimming lesson. Smeared with the strongest sun blocker Puan Anita could fine I was sure. Luckily, by the time he hit the water, the clouds was already in, and even though it was still hot and sticky, it was more bearable.

Since he missed last weekend's class, he had to make it up this afternoon. A Sunday afternoon? I need some down time! But Idlan was thrilled with the idea and there was no talking him out of this one.

Hopefully, it would not be too muggy. I'll probably have some down time during lunch today. The swimming won't start until Kate afternoon.

Have a good weekend everyone.

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......

Three Hospitals

It had been a really warm day today and the fact that I had to run around between Subang Jaya and ParkCity did not help. It had been a tiring one.

This was then capped up by a visit to the Armed Forces Hospital near Wangsa Maju to visit my Dad's driver.

Pak Cik Leman had been driving Anita since she was in primary school. He used to be Dad's driver during his time in the Army. This continued after both of them retired from service. But in the last few years, Pak Leman had worsening of his diabetes. As a result, his weight ballooned and he wasn't as dependable as before. Unfortunately, during the weekend, he suffered a minor stroke and had been admitted since then.

InsyaAllah he would be discharged tomorrow if results turned out ok, but I could see that he still had difficulty with his speech. Praying for a speedy recovery.

Dull Day. Weatherwise. 

Friday morning. A couple of days before the General Election. Weather? Dull. And I was stuck in clinic, waiting for some blood results. Really could use some coffee after the busy Labour Day call, and bad traffic heading into Subang this morning.

The worse thing was, I would be on call again tomorrow ...... Dull week ......

Day Full of Walking

I was just back from visiting not one, not two, but three attractions in town, all in one morning. I went with my current and previous boss, and we managed to squeeze all this in one tiring morning. We got back to the conference centre in time for lunch, and as expected, I was dozing away right after despite picking up a cup of latte coming into the hall.

I will blog a bit more about the places individually as I would have to refer to some notes as I was not familiar with their names. None the less, I took tons of photos, and those would keep me busy on the coming weeks.

I was still struggling to get hold of the local currency. I had to rely on my credit cards to make purchase and paying for taxi. But not all the shops accepted credit cards. My USD were also staying put as there were no place able to use it.

I would probably do a bit of shopping later tonight. I managed to get some titbits and souvenir, but would be looking for some clothes for the boys and something nice for Anita. That would take some time. I would likely go to one of the main shopping centres for that, maybe tomorrow. I have probably done enough walking for today .....
