Little Lamb Rachel

We have just gone for our 1st appointment with HDB on Tue. Thank God that we are able to make a private arrangement with the sellers to get the keys first so that we can start doing the renovation.

One of my fellow CGL blessed us with a headboard for the bed as it came as an extra when he purchased furniture. Just yesterday (and confirmed this morning), one of Weng’s CG member who is relocating decide to bless us with a washing machine. Though is a one year old machine, we are still thankful to this couple for thinking about us and blessing us. It helps us financially.

We also bought our TV at Sitex today (and the freebies were $400 Robinson/John Little voucher, $200 NTUC voucher, a Samsung fridge which we wanted to buy and a camera). We felt that it was a good buy at close to $2.1K as we aren’t sure if we can get even better deal during the Xmas sale.

Just spoke to my mum earlier and she said that actually,both herself & my dad wanted to bless us with a TV set & a fridge. But since we have bought it, she say she will consider giving us in cash instead. She also told me that we don’t have to buy slow cooker, cultery set and all the utensils in the kitchen as she will be getting those for us.

As our renovation is going to be quite substantial, we are praying that God will provide for us (esp now is building fund and we are very stretched in our finances), praying that as Weng goes back to work after 16 days of reservist that God will grant him favour, open doors and bring the right people to him and he will begin to close every deals that comes along his way, praying that my bonus paid next Feb will be in 5-digit figure & pay increment and praying that God will add more to us.

Though is just simple gestures from the different ones, we are thankful to our parents, friends & CG members for loving us. Please keep us in prayers and thank you so much.

Some of my members who were with me throughout the whole Asia Conf will know that I was down with flu since Fri nite, which unfortunately continued till Sat. On Sat late afternoon,while waiting in Hall 10 to Q up for the conf, my flu got worse and I really struggled thru the nite.

Until even Sun, I was still feeling abit fluish (one of my mbr said that he never knew that there’s is this word call fluish) but I still need to run all over the place, having no time to eat lunch and dinner to help run one of the event. I was really glad that Asia Conf is finally over.

What touched me was what happened this morning – one of my mbr (whom I mentioned in my earlier post is going thru difficult time in work & mum’s health issue) actually called me and asked how I was feeling and even suggested that I should go for flu vaccination after I have recovered. Though it was just a simple phone call of 5 mins, I really appreciated the thought and effort.
Truly, when you sow kindness, love, care & concern to someone, you will also reap back the same thing. PTL!

After 5 days of standing, being in the Q & running around to help run some of events at Asia Conf, my legs are finally calling it quits. After I finished bathing last nite, I can really feel the ache in my calve muscles and the sole of my feet. Even the skin around my toe are experiencing some slight peeling.

Dear Dear is in even worse condition – both his legs are swollen at the area that is near the ankle towards the centre (don’t know what that area is called) and he went for accupunture earlier (not forgetting that he’s still on reservist and only have sat – mon off after fieldcamp).

I wonder how are the rest feeling? I know some of my members also “KO” after the finale and probably stoning during the last session. Me too, I was also trying hard to stay awake at some of the sessions. Maybe we have all grown older and our physical state is not as strong as they were in our younger days.

Today is the start of being Home Alone cos dear dear is going outfield and won’t be home till either sat or sun. Sob…Sob…

Is not my first time alone at home. But is the first time that I be home without hubby…Feels weird.. Back in my family, when my parents went overseas and my bro will go bunk in & stay overnight at his friend’s place, I’m also alone…just that mine is a HDB 3 Rm flat…now i’m staying at a HDB 5 Rm flat (a temporary place)..

When the house is alittle big,it can get kind of scary and alone…somemore, there are weird voices/sounds and I don’t even know where the source is from sometimes.

The only good thing is I be going Asia Conf the next few things and I be kept super busy.. So,prob by the time I reach home, I shld be quite “KO”.
