Family First

Had read my many many blog written on Monday? That was done while waiting for dear hubby to pick me up.

My husband is my balance. I don't think anyone else read my blog as much as he does. He, too, has other blogs that he reads like his Magic Friends, his losing Manchester Utd. What's your favorite blogs?

I notice that my favorite blogs are pretty much the moms' blogs. There's this one by a mom of two, http://hazelinesnow.blogspot.com/ which is very lively and interesting. A friend of mine's, http://gartblue.modblog.com/ is another one you should be looking for if you want tips of raising four kids with one nursing! Of course, there is my favorite Yasmin Ahmad, but she hardly update any these days http://storyteller.blogspot.com

Today, nothing much in the headline. The Aussie, by the way, after 32 long awaited years, is finally in the World Cup. Hubby was dancing at that fifth penalty.Today, too, the Goblet Fire is screened. Think I have to wait until next week to watch.

Have made arrangement a week ago to go back to Tuk's place at Parit Buntar on the 24th and 25th. We'll move out into the highway on early 24th morning since I hate the afternoon glaring sun! However, the fellowship of my work has decided to arrange a Hari Raya Gathering for the staff on 24th morning. Was thinking that we probably could bear the sun and shoot out straight after the lunch gathering.

Then it hits me, how many times have I made personal arrangement and re-arrange that for the sake of office events? A few tenders, that PD team building (I cancelled the ticket for two to Kuching for Susan's wedding), that there was that AKP Audit. But have people really made arrangement on their personal activity based on the event that I arranged? First it was the Buka Puasa at Toh Yuen, it was pre-arranged like two weeks in advance. Then this bowling with ever precious customer, it was arranged way before Ramadan. I remembered announcing it before Ramadan in the staff meeting so that everybody'll be aware on the date. No body rejected the date or said the date was not suitable or what.

Now, however, look at the number of people agreeing to come!

Thinking of that, I don't think I want to bear the hot sun on the highway up north. Will shoot up in the morning right, and Azam Zikry can sleep soundly in the morning sun.

It's time for me to put my own family first before anything.
