Yes, truly indeed it is... Be it in area of my job, ministry or even my own life, many many things have been happening in 2009.
JobFirst half of the year was fine.. comfy with what i have been doing and in fact enjoying my workscope, until.... ex mgr decided to leave the org, then changes start. We always say that changes are good for us and where ever you go, there will always be changes.. They are the only constant thing in life. So she left and new one took over. Most of us are trying to cope and adapt to the new leading style.
More cubicles mean more ppl in the same office... so i guess no more peace like before. I regret that i didnt treasure those 'peaceful times'. HEE. But well, i guess we can only get ourselves to adapt to the new changes. So, Shine, stop complaining ya....
I thank God...that at least i still have a job thruout the recession period.. that at least there was no retrenchment in my org (phew!). I thank God that He really gave me a dept of colleagues that are really nice ppl to work with.... that He gave me a good mgr..who has now become my ex-mgr.. :)... that i really enjoyed my workscope! So i thank God still!
Personal LifeWell, what else? Me found out that i was preggy on Easter weekend lo. haha.. Surprised and happy we may be, still there were some uncertainties. Uncertain whether financially can we cope, uncertain whether we can be good parents, uncertain of the new type of life we are gonna have mths later.
And the many many many changes that i went thru and am still going thru, oh, and will be going thru... physical changes are the most obvious ones. I think women are really long-suffering leh. In the past, there were no painkillers to aid childbirth and i really WONDER how they managed to do it! Give birth to (like) TEN children somemore wor! Oh gosh... Pei Fu! Pei Fu! Here i am, 1st tri, giddy and naeseous until i keep complaining MK tt i dont wanna be preggy anymore (haha how childish). Here i am complaining abt this and that... swollen face, swollen legs and feet, not being properly taken care of, no welfare and priviledges for me.... blah blah blah....
I shouldnt be complaining abt all these but...
I should thank God:that He gave us a baby! SMILEZ Shine, SMILEZ! Children are gift from God and we really shld treasure them and thank God for them! :)
And thou my 1st tri was bad (I mean BAD), at least i dont need to be hospitalised.. I heard from some frens that they need to be hospitalised or bed-rested cos of complications. Wow... so i am really blessed le!
...That i am still very active as a preggy woman wor... i really walk and walk and walk and walk and walk fast too! I carried heavy things and still am fine! (ops... HEE). I engaged in many many activites and thou some days i dont feel ok, but overall i am still doing well.. I think i am one of the most activity-engaged preggy woman ard wor... do this, do that, IC of this, help out on that and i am loving it! hahaha...So, thank God, thank God! :)
Ministry:Hm, received the latest update of another plan that my boss has in mind for me after i deliver.
Actually, this yr, the most changes that happened really is in the area of minstry. After E291 was gone, i have been going to different CGs to helpout. Quite a number of plans was set aside for me season to season.
Last evening's was the latest update. i was a little shocked when i heard it and to tell the truth, the 1st thing tt came to my mind was "Are you sure i can do it??" But i guess with the advance in age, we also 'advance' in the way we do things and how we do them. I told boss that i need to think abt it. He gave me 1 day.
Replied him just now and i said "I am fine with it. In fact, where you want me to go, i will go."
He replied "K".
So, i guess i wil prepare myself for the new challenge and trusting and relying on Him to guide me and help me on this! :)
In one year, from Ex-
E291 to
N119 to current
W232 and then to..... _ _ _, i know my life is in God's hand, i know there is always a reason for all these that happen.
So i thank God:and know that good things will happen to those who trust in Him!
Item #4 - Medela mini electric breast pump (also less than $200). We might be getting a 2nd hand one from a fren's sister. But then again, not sure too.....
Item #6 - Coach TRIBECA PATENT LARGE SHOULDER BAG (US$398) - Oh this I love! Not for my baby, but for me! hahah.. it can be like a baby bag acty, where i can squeeze in all baby stuff. But not sure if its big enuff for baby stuff leh. Hopefully la.. keke.. *Pray!*
