Poisoned...

Yeap, I've been poisoned since Sunday. Food poisoning, that is. And today is already Thursday. Still, it doesn't show any signs to stop soon. I've taken the charcoal tablets and the salt. And the best thing was, I was bugged during sleep time at nights only. The trips to the toilet every other hour when everybody else were sound asleep. *Sigh*

Time to take the second visit to the clinic, I guess. Power sungguh racun kali ini.. I remember the last time I was severely 'poisoned' was in 1991 when I was a first former in TKC... huh! Dah lama dah tu.... huhu....

Alamak...Lamanya tak update..

Yes, I have been busy. Very. Hence the abandonement of this blog for a while.

What was I up to? Well, Hubby came home for a week last week for a training here in his Malaysia office. At the same time, I was struggling with the company accounts which hadn't been updated for a very long time. The accounts were due for audit so that we could file them with the SSM. Being a trained engineer, I know nuts about accounts- hence the struggle.

It was also the pick up time for the academic market. A lot of enquiries and requests for quotations came in. I needed to attend to that. And a few clients with products that I supplied needed my attention and help to solve some of their technical problems related to the products.

To top it all, I was down with the flu bugs. And Daniel was a little bit under the weather, too. So, I needed to nurse. And I did a hell lot of cooking since dearest Hubby was around.

Have I bored you enough with my whining? hehe... I'm not quite done yet!

2 days through the training, Hubby called from office, saying that his boss had instructed him to check in at a hotel nearby his office. Reason being, he was late coming in on both days of the training. Subang-KL in the mornings with the traffic and the rain were not helping him to punctually clock in the time for training.

So, that night, the 3 of us checked into Dorsett Regency, KL. Oops..I must mention that I brought my Mum to the Craft Centre for the Craft Fest earlier that afternoon. Went through the bad traffic crawl on the way back home, only to go back to the same spot merely 3 hours after that. (Craft Centre and Dorsett are very close to each other, for you who do not know..hehe..)

For the next 3 early mornings, I travelled back to PH to send Daniel to school while Hubby attended his training. Then I would do the laundry, cook, generate quotations, attended to technical problems, update the accounts bla bla until it was time for me to pick up my darling son from school at 3.30pm. Then, I drove straight back to Chulan Tower to pick up my Hubby.

Ekhem..Still not quite done...haha! My MIL came down for a visit on the third day of Hubby's training. She bunked at my SIL's house in Puchong. I was supposed to pick her up from the bus station in Shah Alam, but due to the heavy traffic on the way back from picking up my Hubby that day, we had to ask Hubby's BIL to do the favor. We went straight to SIL's house for dinner that night. Then, back to Dorsett. This cycle went for two days.

On the final day of Hubby's training, after picking both boys from their respectice places, we hurdled through the heavy Friday traffic back home, had a quick pit stop at Pyramid for a bit of shopping, back home for dinner and packing (yes, I also cooked that day) and shot to KLIA to send Hubby back to UK. Pit stop again at my SIL's house for Hubby to bid farewell to his Mak. Hubby checked-in, kiss-kiss, salam-salam, and off he went. It was past midnight when we left KLIA and we reached my Mum's house (slept there that night since my lil' bro was outstationed to Bintulu) way past 2 am, and I was totally drained out of my energy..

Now, I am done.. haha!

Good enough reason, eh? hehe....

Flu bugs..

I purposely didn't want to go to the clinic for my flu because I want nature to take its due course. I was quite confident that my immune system could make enough antibody to chomp all the bugs alive. It has been going on for about a week, and on Monday night, I just couln't bear it anymore. Starting from Sunday morning, the whole of my left face, from left head to left chin, ached and throbbed like hell! I tried to ignore it but it just got worse on Monday night that I had to go to a clinic at 11 pm Monday night.

I had to take a course of the nebulizer for the first time! Used to do it on baby Daniel during his first few months on earth. Halfway through the neb, my left hand started getting numb. And by the time I finished, both of my legs were also getting numb. Went back again to see the Doc as requested earlier, so I told him about the numbness. He seemed quite concern and asked me whether I was cold. Told him yes, and he asked me to lift both hands in front of me. Both of my hands shook and I was puzzled. Doc said it might be the side effects of the neb and it was not that serious because I was inhaling the medicine and not consuming it. Had I consumed it, the side effects might be worse! Anyway, he told me not to worry and not to think of anything bad. Just asked me to rest and drive safely home (lucky the clinic was very near to my house)

I took all the medications prescribed to me by the Doc as soon as I reached home, hoping that there would not be any other worse side effects. As soon as I put my head on the pillows and tried to close my eyes, I felt the world spinning! Wow! That was strong! Luckily I managed to fell asleep in the end, despite the spinning around action..hehe..

Could hardly wake up the next morning, and I was feeling dizzy the whole day. Alhamdulillah, the pain started to ease and I managed to do some chores related to business in the afternoon and even managed to help Hubby with the painting of the new house after that. I am feeling much better as I am typing this, and hopefully I will get better tomorrow. Should go to sleep now as it's 2 am already. Don't want to fell ill again!
