Jaden is recuperating well

I thank many friends & family members around me who showed their concern towards Jaden!


After 3.5 days of high fever, which was btwn 38.3-39.1, his fever finally subsided on Sat noon.. but soon after, fake measles came.. all over the face n body..



Jaden has been very grouchy, very annoyed, very angry, very uncomfortable, very noisy for the past few days.. It was a test of my patience.. til Mon night, when i really couldn't stand his spoiltness.. i black faced immediately in front of him.. somehow or rather, he seemed to koe that I'm unhappy, as i was staring at him v hard.. he didn't dare to make much noise in front of me, but made it in front of my in laws.. Given my temper, I'm already v tolerant towards him, but i really couldn't stand him animore..



Doctor did tell us to b a bit more accomodating towards him as he is still recovering from the high fever.. but i think he has gone slightly too far, n it's beyond my limit.. i koe he is uncomfortable, but his noise really pissed me off.. When i go to work, I also dun feel good..



Today morn, Jaden is so much better.. the fake measles on the face had disappeared.. back to the smooth face! body, hands n legs also subsided a bit, though can still some marks.. but i koe, he is recovering well. Today, he didn't throw tantrum as much as he did the past few days, bcoz he felt much better now.. in a better mood too.. normally, he wouldn't make so much unbearable noises, it's only when he is sick.. I'm trying to b understanding towards him, but i'm so sorry, this time round I couldn't take it..



I think by tmr, he will b better.. he can smile more now, n it's a good sign.. both hubby n I are looking forward to see him recover fully!

Jaden is sick

Jaden didn't go home this week... all bcoz he was sick for the past few days..

Thur morn, went for breakfast with hubby, mil n Jaden.. he was still v active n cheerful.. after breakfast, i need to run to sch early.. my Thur's timetable is also quite hectic, so didn't have much time to check my hp until ard 4pm, i saw hubby's sms n a missed call..

When i saw the sms, i was shocked! hubby told me, Jaden was running a fever. i was like, not possible ah, morn see him still ok, but noon suddenly just fever... mil measured his temp, it was 38.4... hubby said mil had fed him some fever medicine...

after work, i went over to in laws' house, to see if my precious is ok.. by the time when i reached home in the evening, he was feeling much ok, can still smile.. but night time ard 10pm, his fever shot up again... we fed him medicine, n told ourselves, if Fri still fever, then will bring him to the doc..

Fri morn, mil said his fever did not go down... we measured again, 38.3.. so there we went, to Gek Poh... by the time it's Jaden's turn, his fever went up to 39.1... doc had no choice but to insert the bullet again.. Jaden was crying out loud, so bitterly.. doc explained to me that it might b urine infection... coz Jaden did not have any flu, cough, or even diarrhea..

Had to observe him, see if can control the fever with medicine.. doc said if cannot b controlled, then gotta go back to him, may need to go for a urine test.. took childcare mc leave that day.. After the insert of the bullet, his temp went down.. he was v v v grouchy... he was v drowsy as he didn't really been conscious after 6pm, kept wanting to sleep, most prob due to the med.. so my mil said dun bring him home as he wanted sleep, n somemore he hasn't recovered, so she want us to leave Jaden with them..

tat day noon, he can still dance n laugh with us.. but who koes night time, the fever suddenly shot up to 39 again.. we had no choice but to insert the bullet again... i told hubby, if by Sat evening still cannot control the fever, i do not wish to go back to the clinic, i would prefer to go KK straight.. as fever really cannot play play, n neither do I want to b a frantic parent, a little bit oso go hospital.. so luckily by Sat noon, the fever went down..

Of course, Jaden is still feeling grouchy.. these few days he was v noisy... he's recuperating from the fever, medicine stopped eating, but rashes appeared on his face n body.. we suspected to b heat rash..

Today, Jaden as usual v noisy n grumpy.. mil n I fed up that we do not wish to go out.. whenever he sick, we v scared.. coz scared something bad might happen to him, just like the time when he was admitted to the hosp.. my worst time in my life.. so i v scared to step into KK again, really.. i only wish to step in when i'm going to visit my frd/colleague who will b delivering their bb there.. or else, i dun find any reason to step into KK again.. bad memories will flash back to my mind...

Now, he is much ok, n i'm relieved of course.. but i koe he has not fully recovered.. coz he is seldom tat grouchy n noisy.. now he is, bcoz he hasn't fully recovered.. all i can say now is, I hope Jaden can recover fully, n b a cheerful bb again!

IT department lunch

Today, we went for IT department lunch, at Royal Plaza on Scotts.. directly opp Far East Plaza

I didn't drive, so went to take bus to Boon Lay, then take MRT to Gombak, to meet Wanqiu n some other colleagues.. but bcoz i was super late, thus kana scolded!!! haha.. but i didn't do it on purpose.. i waited for the bus for 20min, by the time i reached Boon Lay MRT, i was already late for near to 30min...

Our group reached the last.. the rest already started eating..

We had enjoyed ourselves through the short gathering.. the food was great, really!!!! has crabs, slipper lobster, prawns, mussells(i don't eat this), sushi, sashimi(i don't eat this), pasta, chicken rice etc... food varieties too many to choose.. their desserts also has a lot of choices loh!!

I once brought hubby to eat, b4 we got married.. we came here to eat b4 already.. but this time round, the food was much better... Heard tat from next year onwards, HOD won't b giving us treat again.. so i assume this is the last IT dpartment's lunch gathering again..

Even if next year may have other gathering, other than choosing such exp coffee house, I may not be able to join in animore... so i think in my mind, this will be my last gathering with this department.. I hope I can b firm to say that out loud by this year end..

Back to work - 1st week

Finally i managed to finish off my 1st week of work with some peace...


As my challenge for 2010 is rather hard to handle, but i always tell myself, i dun wana b beaten down, so I have to make the 1st move in order to stand up


I kept telling my closer colleagues, I dunno how many 1 week I can have to finish off nicely... this 1 week is still too early to say.. i have 39 more weeks to go leh.. i dun know if he will go bonkers 1 day.. n whether i can handle or not.. but in order to stop him from getting crazy, this week i've been v strict n fierce towards him.. i'm not going to b his ex-teachers, who were TOO kind to him..



Though more or less i'm adapted back to work life, but somehow something has changed... I still remembered so clearly that when i 1st went back to work after my maternity leave, i was so emotionally unstable, as i missed Jaden so much.. it took me ard 1-1.5 months to get used to working life again.. but this year is a different feeling.. mayb due to the class that i've been allocated to...



No matter how hard my time is in school, as long as when i reach home n see my precious baby, I'll b so happy again.. though i'm so so so tired.. this whole week, though nothing rush even though my syllabus is slow, but i just feel so tired when i got home after accompanying my precious Jaden.. so much more tiring than any other days..



colleagues may say I can handle the class etc.. but how long can i endure? I've been trying to keep myself optimistic, n so far for this week, I'm coping well.. I can't pin high hopes to get 100% passing rate for this P2 class, as it is SIMPLY IMPOSSIBLE... so i tell myself as long as they try their best, it's ok..



Soon, 2nd week is coming!! I hope i can remain optimistic n downcount each week peacefully w/o any trouble...

Starting work tomorrow

After a LONG break since late Nov, tomorrow has to start work again!

2010 is a challenging year for me, as i'll b getting a LA (low-ability) class, with a child tat has special needs.. autistim..

I'm unsure if i can be able to curb him down, but I'll try.. I hope & I aim that I can, bcoz when I got to know abt my timetable, I was calmer than I initially expected..

I'm more or less prepared to welcome the challenge ahead for me from next week onwards.. I have to lower down my expectations i koe, n of course, I'll try my utmost best...

Wish me all the best for 2010, it's going to b a hard year I know..
