14th week

This week was uneventful. Looks like my nausea is gradually easing but I can't say the same about my fatigue, though. After a long weekend, I was kind of glad to be back at work. To be back to familiar territory. To be productive rather than lying around doing nothing at home. I have been entertaining my perasaan malas since I was released from hospital the week before.

I finally can eat fish, not just baung but any fish. MrM, who is in charge of chicken and fish when we go to the wet market, bought fresh barramundi (ikan siakap) and my maid cooked lemak cili api of the fish. Which reminds me on Sunday, my brother-in-law SMSed me and said "don't cook, we are bringing food from kampung". And sure enough there was ikan baung salai, ikan baung tak salai, udang galah...I ate a lot! The combination of the gulai, daun kunyit, asam and fish was just right for my tastebuds. At this rate, my improved cholesterol levels would probably go back to where it was before.

I can also eat the Sunkist like oranges. The reason I call it "Sunkist like" is because oranges these days are from China or Egypt. You don't get US or Australian oranges here anymore, be it in Tesco, Giant, pasar malam or fruit shops. I can eat them oranges provided they are sweet. That was a relief for me since the fruits that I can eat or crave to eat usually result in me having "wind" problems.

Back to my malas problem. Work was a barrage of reports to review, meetings, presentations to prepare, pre-meeting engagements with council chairman, e-mails to respond to, and many more. The FRM department meeting took place on Thursday and I tried to emphasize on the need for my staff to have analytical depth in the respective areas that they are in. The challenge I think is for the IFRM team, whom I think need to have these three areas : having the big picture, process oriented and analytical capabilities.

The thing is in my mind I want to do a lot of things, but the body is just not willing. Blame it on being preggers at this age.

Heck, I find this blogging tiring to maintain laa....I just don't know how people find time to sit at a computer and write away.....Facebook is easier....
