20 weeks and stressing myself unnecessarily

What a week this has been and what it will be....MrM left for Miri on Tuesday only to return on Wednesday attending this VDP Exhibition program or something like that organized by this company that I work for. I had made arrangements to hitch a ride with Nasyrah who stays in Park Avenue to go to work and back from work. My concern was that by the end of a workday I will not have the energy to drive myself home.

MrM bumped into an ex-office colleague in Miri and this colleague, whom I call Bapak Roz, texted me to say that MrM looks slim and sophisticated. And that Bapak Roz said needs to speed up his slimming and dieting program (Bapak Roz btw has also lost a lot of weight, tak taulah whether being in that division or just kurang makan made him lost weight). Of course, I was in the midst of all the stress in the office, and my immediate response was "Yeah dia (MrM) fit, I fat...that is what you meant to say kan? Kan? Kan?" and when he didn't reply I SMSed him lagi "Kan?Kan?Kan?"....mental betul I was then. Then texted MrM to say "Bapak Roz says that you look slim and sophisticated....what did YOU DO to make him say that??" Lagi mental....

Apart from this week office stress, my reasoning is that despite wanting to exercise during this pregnancy, more often than not I succumb to my tiredness and would just rather sleep or lounge around at home. Today for instance, I woke up early (6am) since I slept early and could not sleep anymore. After shower, I dozed off again on the sofa downstairs only to be awoken by MrM asking when and where to go for brunch. Brunch was at Pak Lang Kopi Tiam in PD and upon returning home, I slept again. On the sofa. For a good 2 hours. That was the best sleep ever what with the rain and howling winds.

5 months now and the shape of my stomach is telling me that most likely this baby will be a boy. The stomach is protruding compared to having girls when my stomach is spread to the sides.
Looks like we have to buy a lot of baby stuff since most have been given away. I am targeting June to get all the new things and in a way looking forward to that shopping.

Talk about office stress....what laa....dahlah deadline for appraisal completion and online submission in next week....the past 2 days something came up, a new exposure yg tak tahu hujung pangkalnya and kena marah lagi....nak resolve all this punya lah banyak kerja, nak investigate lagi, nak buat exposure paper lagi, nak arrange meeting lagi, nak plan lagi Board meeting tu bila....

Lepas tu nak kena HR work lagi, staff appraisals, results assessment communication, prepare for HRPC (and secretary yg kena bagi instruction every time tak jugak reti2 apa nak kena buat for this HRPC....for God's sake, dah 2 ke 3 performance appraisal since she came in)

Nak kena chair audit exit meeting lagi...IFRM exit meeting with PCSB is next week.....macamana tak stress?
