Third Ramadan

First day back to work during Ramadan and to be honest, I was feeling rather tired. Luckily I didn’t have many inpatients and my clinic was only in the afternoon. A long list though, and added to that a meeting which would run until after berbuka once it was done.

I had some time in the morning to sort out some reading and go through some emails. Hopefully the rest of the day would be too taxing as well. Idlan is on his midterm and was still enjoying his sleep.

Happy Monday!

Back to the Old Routine

After the time off and conference leave, it was now back to work proper. In the middle of a long weekend - Monday was a public holiday for the installation of the Agung - I was on call on the Sunday. I was at Julia's place with my Mum the day before and the day after the call of course.

Despite being a long weekend, the call was surprisingly busy. Managed some sleep though as well as the first half of the United match. By the time I was ready to go to bed, the Barca - Real match kicked off. I was too tired to watch though.

At least I had Monday to rest before starting the week. Another long weekend coming right ahead but I had another call later in the week.

I was also scheduled to be in Singapore for a meeting next week, before returning to give a couple of talks the weekend after ...

It was always good to get back into the swing of things.

Rough Week

It started last week when I admitted 3 patients with influenza B infection. Took all the usual precautions, but by the next morning, I started feeling pain in my muscles. That was too soon to start blaming the patients.

The the second day, I felt like closing clinic but I had to soldier on. My voice was also started going, but at least my colleagues were back on duty. I didn't have to cover them much longer. Saturday came and went. It was not until Sunday when I started to improve. And then it was time for another call on Monday.

It was towards the end of the week now and I was feeling back to myself. Another call on Friday before having some time off next week, heading to Kuala Terengganu for my cousin's wedding. And then the MSH Meeting in Johor Bharu after that. It is going to be an exciting fortnight ...

Lining Them Up

So, my crazy stretch of calls were finally done. Looking forward for a few days off during the Thaipusam period. Might be doing some photography during that period if I have a partner. Alternatively, Anita might have an idea or two about a day out.

For this weekend, I would be catching up on some TV and paperwork. Hoping to get some proper sleep as well somewhere.

Plotting

So, it was the third day of Chinese New Year break. I will be on call tomorrow. It was just ward round this morning although I had to wait for a transfer from out of town. If that one came in late, it could spoil the rest of my day. Anyhow, it was good to plan. Anita was also interested in joining me for a quick outing.

So, where should we head to after my rounds? I asked if Anita wanted to join me for breakfast while I do the ward visit.

The city would still be quiet. I wanted to go to a new mall at Bukit Damansara and have a look at what it was about. Alternatively, we might just hang around at a cafe near Bukit Bintang. There were no good exhibits going on in town at the moment except for the gallery at Bank Negara. The problem was there might be a risk of it being closed today ....

Maybe we would go there after lunch.
