TGIF !!



Yup, it's creeping nearer and there are like 3 nites to go before I start my fasting. The hospital have rang me up for the initial administrative work.

Asking me about blood type, allergies and etc. Dr. Youssif will be the one conducting the c-sec but I have another pediatric, Dr Douglas, who will see me through after-op care.

He mailed me his details yesterday.

Mum's xray came on wednesday and I had to drive down to DIMA to submit it. On the way, we went to brunetti to get milly a sponge cake. A small one that cost us 29 bucks!!

But it was fluffy and semi sweet. Most cakes , say, from Michel's patisserie does taste a bit more, bland and sweeter.

Luckily I went all the way to Lygon to get the cake because by 5 pm, milly;s friend rang to see what did we did for her birthday and as I pull out the cake from the fridge, she was pleasantly surprised!

Goes to show, every little effort counts in this world. Anyone who have a birthday coming would expect something, even a small candle on a tiny cupcake, as a grand gesture of them turning a year older.

Remember that people!

I went to pick up Lya's nappies from Big W, 32 per box, with the usual price of 41, every sale is noticed!!

We went to safeway to get Mum's avocadoes and I paid for it but forgotten to take the groceries.

Mum was pretty angry at me and that was 11 am. We went back to safeway by 2.30 pm and I told the manager how I forgotten my groceries. She kindly allowed me to pick up the stuff I got, which I did remember and got them for free.

Mum did want to take more than what we paid for but I reminded her, it was my mistake and I shall admit to it and take as what I have paid.

We watched a Mexican Latin MOvie on Sbs Two about, a middle aged , outta work mechanic that made his fortune by breeding his Male Pitt bull, called Le chine.

One scene depict the man, giving up his much needed job as a guard, with his dog, for 30 pesos a day, to the previous drunken guard. The previous guard cried back for his job , regretting his misfortune and the man gave him back his job outta empathy.

He went to the bank to cash his cheque and the Bank manager introduced a Dog trainer to him because he loved Pitt bulls!

Another twist in the story about how unselfishness and a little kindness could lead to his good fortune?

Had he not be a good saint and took pity on the guard, he would not have known that the pitt bull was worth a lot of money from dog shows and breeding capabilities?

Such a simple storyline but very touching?

I would ask for my children to watch the film itself. Because it really does spark a conversation?

With the recession going on, everyone who has a job knows the critical of having one and being unemployed. Bills piling and endless things to pay around the house?

Dr Youssif enquired about patrick, last night for my last visit. How he never sees him around, accompany me on my prenatal visits. He has to work, I told him because his fees are closed to 5K itself!

But going to any government practice is time consuming and long ques are expected.

We have to pay for medical services, it is a compulsory.

Goes to show you, the things we take for granted for?

It's Friday and the sun is breaking up the raining morning clouds!

wakey wakey...
