My 1st day of fasting for this new Ramadhan. Haziq is now on a bigger bike no more on the baby bike..gosh! how much he has grown..Have been cooking for the past 3 mornings for sahur..now my day starts at 4.00am in the morning, after which is off to tempt cari makan..

Kinda quiet in the office except for a two hour meeting with the HSBB team. No meetings in the afternoon, guess its time to do some planning...hmm..lets see how do I feel today..nothing extraordinary other than the mundane activities..and I am planning to hit the gym after office..my weight gain is too much now..dunno..it seems a little bit out of control shall I say. What had happened..searched me..am trying hard to be back on track guess the Ramdhan is one way of managing the extra FAT!!!

to pen off now,,to do my solat...

Haziq can now ride the bike. This was succesful after an extensive coaching from Men. Good for him.

Today, my first ever experience participating a treasure hunt event. Jay & haziq are with me for the race so is the BIG driver...the Aduka. We only survived the 1st leg of the race since the two boys dozed off and it is of no help at all, Stopped over in Gambang R7R 'cos Aduka felt sleepy and need shots of caffeine.

Haziq's 1st training on the bike and to continue this morning...with an objective to be a novice cyclist..

Ani and I in Nice, attending the Telemanagement Forum May 2009. We stayed in the same room, it has been quite sometime that I had a good chat with Ani. The last we were constantly in communication was way back in the late 80's and early 90's. How time flies, and the children has grown too. As to date the photos that we took using Ani's camera heven't landed with me yet. Need to see her and download the photos into thumb drive.

My 3rd day of fasting, 4 more to go, but Nana stooped fasting today as she has physical activities in school. hold and behold, I attended Bernard's class in Manulife..good not so crowded and has enjoyed myself, and fat burned very encouraging too. Bernard getting married soon. BTW, now I do realised that I have been following his class for almost 3 years..time zoomed too. This is the aerobic exercise that I have been adopting to manage my weight. At the same time I am looking out for other classes for strength training. thinking of Pilates ( bumped into Melissa in Manulife today and last friday with Ginny).

as a starter I m ight get into Fitball and body vive..soon it will be body balance.

cheerio for now.

Its Monday, and I am off to work with my new set of reading glasses...power changed and with astigmatism corrected. Need to be back on track with work in office. Come to think of it..work..maybe its time for me to consider retiring once my contract expires..hmm..cathcing up with the technology is sometimes tiring..need to read to update one self...blast!!!! enoughabout work..

What about me.. gee went to see Dr. Lee on Saturday about me missing my period for the last 5 days..thought new sets of diapers are coming into place..well not really..positively none..Dr. lee did a pregnancy test and voila!!!!! test is negative..definitely menopause is setting in. How do I feel...accepting on coming of age..no worries, its just that I need badly a review on my gym strategy and regime...btw did Body Vive last friday..good class, fat burning is arounfd 40%..need to do Body vive more often.

I am fasting today..to pay back those days that I missed my fasting during the last Ramadhan. I promise myself that this time round of Ramadhan would be better that the previous year. the last one was terrible..basically I do not gain much except than the food straining order!!

This picture was taken on my last day in Nice, south of France. Attended the Telemanagement Forum in early May.
Haven't been to this part of France - the french riviera. had a wonderful time, visiting Monaco, Monte Carlo also some medieval villages. It was after this trip that I had a very bad virul fever..was totally sick for about a week..but Alhamdulillah nothing serious..this time round Kamil brought me to SJMC in the wee hours of the day as my I had very bad fever..

I am confused..don't know what to diagnose..have been missing my period for 4 days, but definite no signs of pregnancy...early signs of menopause..need to see the Doctor tomoorow morning to confirm..but for sure the following feelings do exists;
1) stomach feel bloated - as if some air has been pumped into my stomach
2) lower abdomen achs - this usually is an indication of me having my period but for sure no stain
3) hot flushes- might be happening but not sure but at time i do feel sweaty but not to the stage of uncontrollable

with these symptoms - making me aware on coming of age, physically i do see some changes, I feel tired easily..mood wise sometmes feeling emotional..well whatever it is the Doctor visit tomorrow will help..

I have turned 49 yesterday...nothing outstanding happened aother than the usual thingies...however the trip back home was interesting..
