December - Christmas is upon us...

I'd love to share some words of wisdom, however, it's late and i'll just begin my procrastination of a later post on that.

Anyway, it seems that this year is a year of travelling. It looks like the trip to Fraser's was not meant to be. So yeah, don't really remember what we did instead.

What i DO know is that we went to Ipoh for a day trip in September for a day trip as i had work there and then we went to JB/Singapore in September/October for a few of days, also because of work. The problem with the latter trip was that the air-conditioning on my Xantia gave up halfway to JB and to compound the heat, it was rainy. I had only fixed it a couple of weeks prior to the journey but it wasn't a complete fix as the mechanic had informed me that it may not have solved the problem. He's trying to narrow down the possibilities. Anyway, we survived the trip and managed to spend minimally.

We also went to Chendering, at the end of November as i had taken a long leave in an effort to clear it by year's end. So we headed for Ladang MCare. The place is quite nice, barring mosquitoes, which were a great many. We're thankful to the hosts for allowing us to spend time there to learn a bit more of what they actually do there. I'm sure they're in need of a lot of help - labour to assist in cleaning up and clearing, maintaining as well as monetary assistance. They have space to fit up to a max of 30 people at a squeeze. It is NOT a retreat. Please don't treat it as a halfway house. Do help by volunteering your expertise there.

Next week, we're headed for Krabi! Will update on it after we're back!

Just in case i'm too "busy" to post, a very Merry and Blessed Christmas to all and a Happy New Year. Do take time to reflect on significance of the BIRTH OF CHRIST while celebrating this joyous occasion.

Also, HAPPY 2nd Birthday EMMA! You're TWO years old! We're proud of you and we LOVE you very much! You're growing up to be such a wonderful young lady! We thank God for bringing you into our lives!

Break...

A break is coming up. Looking forward to it! Family time!

So, since my boss has been away the past week, it'll be my turn to take a break. I hope to be able to take breaks every month. After all, i've got plenty of leave to go. Every month i wrack up at least a couple more days of leave on top of my Annual Leave. So, i have to clear it all before the year ends.

This weekend, we'll be going to Fraser's. A bit last minute as we have something on on Saturday afternoon. It'll be my first trip there in recent memory. Actually, in any memory at all since i have absolutely no recollection of having been there before although my parents beg to differ. So, here's to hoping there's cool weather.

BTW, i'm supposed to buy this manuka honey. No idea whatsoever about where to get it. Heard it'll coz upwards of RM100 for something like 1 litre? Don't know anything about it but based on my searches, sure sounds like just another direct selling gimmick. I should know, i've been suckered into several direct selling things... Let's just say, there's no free lunch ya? Everything is hard work.
