Mummy..it's not BEN

Conversation with Aiman waktu dinner tadi...

Mummy: Aiman buat apa at school tadi?

Aiman: Play with my friends

Mummy: Ohh Aiman main dgn sapa? Yash? Sean? (Dua2 ni bestfriends Aiman kat daycare)

Aiman: Yeah..and I play with Ben too

Mummy: Ohh who's Ben? (jarang dgr aiman sebut nama Ben)

Aiman: Mummmmmyyyy it's not BEN, it's BIN

Mummy: ohhh BIN (trying her very best to pronounce it kiwi way..

Aiman: No mummy, BIN is for rubbish, it's BIN >>stressing the kiwi accent there..ntah kat mana yg lain pun x tau la

sampai sudah I cannot pronounce it they way it should be (according to Aiman lahh)

Kalau ikut kiwi accent ni, seven dia sebut sivin, ten depa sebut tin..So Ben bunyi macam Bin, tapi x la bunyi macam bin tong sampah tu..apa yg lain, x tau la pulak

Yay..Aliya's new trike

A Radio Flyer fold 2 go. Baru order tadi from trademe . Trademe ni lebih kurang EBAY, LELONG etc versi NZ

I wanted this one actually..I always like the classic red radio flyer trike and the built quality..and ohh if I can get the wagon, it's even better he3 (sapa yg nak main ni?? nampak sgt mak dia yg beria)

Sebab apa beli? Actually Aliya dah ada trike..yang macam ni..



Looking at the colour and design, off course la trike itam ni a hands me down from Aiman to Aliya kan, murah saja beli dalam $30-40 camtu (yg ni 2nd trike aiman actually, yg 1st tu kan..pada suatu hari yg hening..mummy telah baling ke lantai, mengamuk kat aiman, naik hantu apa ntah waktu tu..terus patah, x sangka benda ni boleh patah, sebab nampak solid..kesian betui tgk aiman waktu tu nak naik x boleh sebab patah dikerjakan mummy yg ganas ni..terus pi beli baru sebab nak tebus rasa bersalah tu..ehh menyimpang jauh pulak cerita trike ni..

Baru2 ni bawak trike itam ni pi umah Janifal, babysitter Aliya, tinggal terus kat sana sebab kesian kat Aliya x dak benda nak main2 bila dia kat sana. Ingatkan sebab dia dah byk ride on toys lain kat rumah, x kisah la.Tapi each time nak balik dari umah Janifal, dia mesti nak naik trike ni bwk balik rumah, ptg tadi sampai x mo balik..agaknya bila abg main bike abg, aliya x boleh nak join kot, selalu abg nak bike, adik akan naik trike..

So singgah la kedai mainan OTW balik umah td, nak usya2 trike radio flyer ni..tapi not instock, dia baru nak tanya supplier berapa harga etc and nak kena order dulu..so malam tadi usyar Trademe, terjumpa yg purple kat atas tu, discuss2 dgn Mr Daddy, decided ambik yg purple tu sebab murah. Org tu wat clearance,last season punya colour..alahh depa bukan tau pun..harga asal $150 kot..jadi $80incl postage..yg merah tu pulak $170..agak mahal la..boleh beli bike betul dah..tu yg Mr Daddy suh amek yg purple tu..frust mummy x dapat beli retro radio flyer yg dah lama di idamkan itu..(sapa yg nak main ni??)


Bagus jugak benda ni kaler purple, Aiman n aliya suka berebut mainan, trike ni dah la kaler purple, siap ada rambu ramba lagi, boleh kata kat aiman, yg ni only for girls hehehhe..x sabar nak tunggu benda alah ni sampai.

Oh dear..

Tgh tunggu my last patient..a hypochondriac

Hypochondriac ni org yg risau excessively about something that doesn't really exist

So kena bnyk sabar + kena explain memacm kat dia.. letih woo..
Last time sejam haku borak ngn makcik ni.baru a few days ago , semalam dia mai lagi, nasib time tu aku dah cabut..aku tuang sekerat hari sebenarnya, tapi x apa, aku beik..aku pi lebri buat kerja tauu..

Tapi makcik..ni hari jumaat la makcik..saya nak balik umah, ambik anak, hantaq anak mengaji, nak masak lagi huhhhhu..tadi pagi boh ribs dalam slow cooker, nak buat bihun sup ala utara la konon..harap2 ok la sup tulang slow cooker aka sup tulang malas itteww

ohh UPDATE - Makcik tu x mai pun..dia baca belog inikah?? atau dia sudah hilang ingatan pulak?

okehla..nak kemas2 nak balik ni..

Happy weekend people..

Esok tatau nak buat apa lagi..incik suami kata dia nak study, mana la mummy nak pi merapu bawak anak dua org tu..ari ahad nak pi tgk helicopter..air ambulance tu..tata

Air Ambulance

Sitting in my favourite spot in the library trying my very best to finish off my Pneumococcal Vaccine vignette, my concentration was disturbed by the sound and sight of the air ambulance. Another air ambulance just arrived, undoubtedly bringing in another emergency patient. The helipad is just accross the libarary, hence I can hear it very clearly. Each time I hear the sound, my heart sank, thinking of the casualties, patients/cases that would occupy the ambulance. Another accident? Another dying baby? Someone in labour with a prem baby? Waikato Hospital's catchment area is very big, so all the urgent cases are normally transported by air ambulance. We also sometimes use the ambulance to tansport urgent cases to other hospital as far as Christchurch Hospital if we don't enough beds/incubator for babies etc..

But aside from that the air ambulance is a big source of entertainment for my son and his friends at their daycare which is also right accross the helipad. The kids will be jumping up and down, excitedly waving at the helicopter, even Aliya who occasionally comes accross the helicopter when she comes to pick up 'aman' loves the helicopter.

They're having an open day on the 2nd of May, from 10-2pm for fundraising and to raise awareness to the local communities. We're hoping to take both Aliya and Aiman there.

Adoila..

Sangat letih la ini malam, tadi lawan badminton, 3 games ja pun, tu pun semua kalah hahahha..xpala..masuk bukan niat nak menang sgt pun, nak exercise + bg ramai team saja, 2 games main ngn asma, women double, satu game main dgn incik hubby, mixed double. Women single x dak sapa pun masuk, semua takut pancit hahha..pompuan yg masuk semua mak2 org, kecuali asma. Org len x minat kot..

Ni tgh dok teman budak berdua ni tidoq, x dak tanda2 nak tidoq pun..siap boleh dok menyanyi lagi..lagu peberet depa la ni..lagu Abba yg Mamma mia tu..sari berkali2 suh ulang lagu tu..

I still have to:

2) Ptg tadi beli stock dgg kat Clarkin Prime Halal, nak kena asing2, cuci n masuk freezer

3) Baju belum lipat-one load. Alhamdulliah weather weekend ni bagus, semua baju kering. Iron baju adalah sgt jarang sekali.Incik hubby kalau nak pakai baju elok ber iron kena iron sendiri, teruk kan bini dia ni? Bini dia pulak, dok la ulang pakai baju x payah iron hahha..itu pasal sy sgt suka sama tudung awning-balik msia aritu pulun ku beli byk2, tu pun menyesal x beli lg byk..

Recipe for oral rehydration solution

Ohh boringnya tajuk hari ini..but I thought I'd share this for the benefit of sesapa yg tersinggah kat blog ni..

Hari ni cuti, cuti ganti for the extra shift that I have to do at Anglesea Clinic, so mai la library, nak study la konon..alhamdullilah, not too bad, reasonably productive. Pagi tadi mai library seawal 8 pg, kalau ikut hati nak mai lambat, tapi memandangkan nak mai sekali with incik hubby untuk jimatkan petrol yg $1.96 seliter itewww.., so kena la mai sebelum pukul 8 sebab dia masuk kerja pukul 8

Dan la study seround, then pukul 10 pg pi kuaq minum kopi dgn rina n k hanim, pehtu, balik semula ke library arnd 1pm

Amongst the things that I read today was infective gastroenteritis aka Diarrhoea..

Dalam dok study tu la that I came accross this recipe for oral rehydration solution by WHO (World Health Organization) I guess this recipe is aimed for those in 3rd world country who can't easily get access to medication, but I think it is quite useful for us to know. Very simple

1L of clean drinking water/cool boiled water
8tsp of sugar
1tsp of salt

Just dissolve the salt and sugar in the water and walla..you have your homemade rehydrati0n solution! The only thing is, the 'proper' rehydration solution will replace pottassium as well, but looking at the ingredients I don't think this solution will, but a banana or two (if you can tolerate it) will take care of the pottasium

Don't forget to keep the solution in the fridge!

Reminder to myself..

Weekend ni, sila tengok2:

Dermatomes
Stepwise asthma mx programme
Buat notes pasal hypertensive mx


ETA - Trochanteric bursatis + the anatomy

the list is growing huhuhuhu

Cukup la tu kot..selalu tulis dalam jotter book, tapi beg kerja pun haram x bukak, tau dok bukak blog saja..so baikla tulis dalam blog hahahah

Stress..stress..stress

Aritu lepas easter long weekend rasa macam dah recharged dah..

But now I am back in our usual routine..

I think I need some spark in my life

We bicker a lot lately, about silly things, sapa nak basuh berak la..sapa nak tukaq baju anak etc huhu..both of us have stressful jobs, have exams that we need to study for..kalau la kami x 'kena' amek exam ni semua, x kuasa seh..

Dulu2 time kerja kat hosp,at least we can meet up for lunch..have a nice chat (hi hi jgn terkejut, a lot of our dr couple friends do this, sad kan?? ) but now I am no longer working at the hosp, tunggu balik rumah baru leh sembang2, mana nak tgk anak, masak etc..dah la nak beli pun x boleh
