Post-Hospital (Late Post)

Thursday, 15/12/16

I stayed at home whole day yesterday. Practically my first full day at home after a week in the hospital.

Still wasn't feeling great. 
For once, I let Onya watch TV for couple hours. It's her first day of school holiday anyway, and I literally had no energy to play with her as usual. 
So I cut us some slack. 
I let her watch all her series, and I just laid on the couch watching with her.

I fixed her breakfast and lunch. Prepared some snacks, and continue to be a couch potato. 

Onya did have a break from TV though. I asked her to write a card for her friend Soairse who is battling cancer. 

She drew a couple pictures too. She asked me whether Omar can come over and play. I said no. I really, really wasn't feeling well yesterday. I don't think I can handle a playdate. 

Then she played with her dinosaurs. Then we watched Disney's Dinosaur movies, where I get to close my eyes for 10 minutes trying to ease the headache. Then I had a diclofenac to ease the pain.

I feel for all the mothers (or fathers) who are not well physically. It's really not easy to tend to a kid when you're physically crooked. 

Onya is a big girl now. She can spend hours playing with her toys or arts. I can't imagine those with a toddler.... 

Andi came home at about 3:30pm.

Im feeling a lot better today. I took Onya for a playdate with Spencer. Went to town to have lunch. Went to Toyworld to buy a birthday present for Sonia's friend. Picked Andi up from work. Pumped petrol.

So yes. I feel better today. 

Onya's gonna have a playdate with Sara tomorrow, so that'll give me a couple hours to do my shopping for my indo trip.

Recovering from septicemia kidney infection is not easy. I got tired really fast. Kinda feel like my body betrays me. I have so many things to do, but I dont have the energy to do it.

Doc said I need to take it easy for atleast a couple of weeks, but time is running out. I literally have soooo many things to do, I dont even know where to start. 

I hate this feeling. Literally exhausted.
I wasn't expecting this at all, really. I thought it'd be just a couple of days..... but apparently it can take weeks for me to fully recover. 
Gallbladder surgery was soooo much better than this. 

Kinda funny if you think about it. Organ removal heals A LOT faster than wounded organ. 

Im trying my best to stay positive. I know this thing takes time to heal. I know I have to take it easy. I do. Sigh

Went to work for few hours today. Tidying some stuff. I took Onya with me, and Im so grateful for her. Very, very well behaved. Ga ganggu sama sekali, asik colouring, drawing, dan dia minta diprint-in some math worksheet. 

Lovely banget ni anak... im so blessed. 

I keep reminding myself to take it easy. Quarterly reporting has started (again) and gw kanciong sih jujurnya. Like 85% of the people yg responsible sama each deliverable nya udah quit. Jd ga tau dah sapa yg bakal ngerjain tu report.

Dooh, jd mikir kerjaan lagii. I have to wake up in less than 3 hrs buat ke airport. Bless us.

Bucket List

Yep. Been hearing a lot about people dropped dead suddenly. Mulai dari si Adjie Masaid, babenya si Joshua, then just now Emma's friend juga Dadaism died of heart attack. She was 29 years old, just got ,arrayed last October. Life is so fragile. That's why I really hate Andi each time I have to remind him over and over again about healthy lifestyle. Anyway, decided to make a bucket list for myself. 1. Back to NZ 2. Sky dive 3. Vacation to Russia 4. Having more than enough funds for Onya to pursue her degree in England, Oxford University preferably :) 5. Ngeliat Andi punya bodi keren 6. Buying a house for my parents 7. Karet tengsin dijual Hmmm....... Belon kepikiran yg lawn. Nanti di update lg deh

Pippy

We have a new addition in the family. We adopted a Jack Russell from SPCA.  Kenapa anjing? Karena seumur idup gua, for as long as I can remember, gua selalu punya anjing. Bukan cuma sekedar "miara" loh, tapi yg bener2 part of the family.  Yg paling membekas itu tentu aja Piko ama Picca my last two dogs.  Kakah died when I was about 5 months pregnant with Onya. Jadi Onya sama sekali ga sempet ketemu my dogs.  Makin kesini gw makin yakin, kalo animals play an important role in kids life (at least di idup gw lah). They learn about responsibility, caring and most importantly compassion. I wanna give a chance buat Onya ngerasain apa yg gw rasain ke Piko n Kakah. The gift of unconditional friendship they gave... And how u learn to love them too.  Kenapa adopt? Karena saya ini agak2 idealis tapi realistis. I love animals. Dogs especially.  Idealis karena gw mau do the right thing YG GW BISA. Realistis karena, as much I want to.... Gw ga akan sanggup kl disuru jadi...

Another Random Post

It is perhaps a monumental probability that I've simply forgotten what has kept me here. Or evidently, what I have fought so hard for. What wind could be so strong, it banishes hundreds of acres of oaks, yet still ever so gentle enough to persuade even the most delicate of buds to move with, barely, an inch-long effort. My God, seeing kunyuk with that robe triggered something inside. I miss her. I know she'd worked soooo hard to be where she is now. I miss those moments. Though I must admit, maybe, just maybe... Im not running for the same dream anymore. The passion still there, ... it's just become a smaller part of me. Could I have waited this long, and demolished five full years of emotional barricade? Nah. I've walked too far to even think of steeping back. What faith could have, so morbidly, left my judgement impaired? The first scar may be the deepest, but a scar is a scar. ... and one left to bleed without stitches is bound to come undone. Tapi guess what? Im hea...
