Let me thaw my brains and leave you with this and I promise I shall be back with more meaningful thoughts of the day...

So I have not been updated since time began. To those who are on Facebook, you know you get my chronicles from there. Those who do not have Facebook, start one now :)

Where should I start updating? Its been a long time hasnt it? Hmmm...

Suraya turned 2 in December. 2 weeks after her birthday, she fell off the bed and fractured her right upper femur. We were in the hospital for 2 days to get a cast on her. Its a full body spica cast as the fracture is close to the hip and a spica cast is needed to ensure full healing.

What did this entail? Well, I have been home since then. I am on Family Leave all the way till March just to care for this little munchkin.

But wait...it has been 5 weeks already which means that the Dr will remove her cast this coming Tuesday. So Suraya will have her freedom back!

I promise I shall try to update this page as often as my journal in Facebook.

In the meantime, here are some pics and a video of Yaya..

Wow it surely had been a while...

Nothing much has changed in my life. We changed president, we are still trying to get use to the fall back time and I am getting almost close to getting used to drive in the dark with the morons who cant drive in the dark!

Business has been slow...but I learned now, when the month starts off slow, it will take off in the 2nd half of the month. Allah always rescues me in the end.

2 nights ago, I dreamed that I asked Kakak Mas to cook 2 cups of rice. After 20 minutes, thinking that the rice could have been cooked, I opened the rice cooker and it was filled with puffy white rice, filled to the brim. Could be a good sign? Rezeki? I dont know, InsyaAllah.

Gotta thank my husband for buying me a Coach Wallet last night. Aheem, I had to fight hard for it. Yes, we fought over it cos I was rolling on the floor throwing fits saying that I WANT THAT WALLET hehehe. Not that it costs so much to burn a hole in my pocket. He was just being an a*s about it.

In the meantime, I am waiting for my boots to arrive by mail. Cant wait!!!

So I have learned, things do not go my way as I would like all the time. Hmm...I thought I have learned that many years ago already?

Thank you for your IM and emails. Some I tak sempat jawab. I am okay...really I am.

Here's prove that I am still alive...taken on Halloween.

Abang Matt will be 16 in 7 days. Yaya will be 2 in 4+ weeks. My wish for my kids? I wish they know that Ibu thinks the world of them and loves them to death!

And life moves on...
Sorrow one day and happy the next. I have to do that keep myself sane. I know I have people around me who relies on my positive energy.

I have a wish. To have my son here soon. Things have been in a disarray lately. Something happened and my son's intention to come visit SF was 'sidetracked'. It was noone's fault...noone's at all. Maybe we all tried too hard to make things better but it turned out to be otherwise.

I have been coaxing my son...to come see me. I miss him so so much that it hurts. It hurts everyday from the fact that he is away from me. Everyday it hurts. I have never seen all my 3 kids in front of me.

I did my second coaxing already. I would do the third and fourth whatever I can do to let him know that ibu wants to see him badly.

All I can do is hope and pray to Allah, for Him to show me my son soon.

But you know, if he really is not coming soon, I will still love him no matter what.

I keep telling myself
That things will be okay...
It will be okay
But.....................

I am not sure now
I try and I try
I save everyone's feelings
But....................what about my own feelings?

I protect, I am sensitive, I forgive,
But does anyone care how I feel?
Or are their feelings more important than mine?

I would do anything for the ones I love
Would they do the same for me? For my sake?
Or are their feelings more important than mine?

Do I really matter?

Sigh......I do not know

Is this going to be a 'venting' blog entry? I really dont know.

Past weeks had been a daze to me. From trying to keep the whole family back to the pink of health to trying to make my numbers in this slow economy.

At the same time, I had a fallout with my former sales team from my previous office. She accused me of stealing her prospect, who is my current customer. To make the story short, she accused me of being a liar and that I was that desperate for my numbers that I would steal anything to get it. It was okay if she called me a liar (which I am bad at doing so, you can call me whatever you want) but of her accusing me of stealing to get my numbers? I dont know, as much as I have tried so very hard to shrug it off but heck...that was some hurtful statement that she had thrown at me.

She mentioned that if I were her friend, I would not steal from her. But then, if she were my friend, she would have given my customer my current phone number and not go ahead and made the sale for herself no? I didnt say that last statement to her as I was too busy defending myself with the accusation. I am just not good with 'sudden shot' comebacks. But in the end, the customer did get in touch with me and ended up buying second insurance from me.

Sometimes I wonder, when does a friend really become a friend? When does a friend just turn her back on you and stab you in the front?

I guess I will NEVER find out. Life's like a box of chocolates remember? You will never know what you're going to get.

For now, I still could not believe that she had said that to me.
