Expect the Unexpected

Oliver and Heidi enjoying a moment together reading library books at home.

I had planned at the start of 2011 to take the week of 22 November off. Oliver's Birthday and the school graduation ceremony took place on the same week. I intend to spend 21 Nov preparing birthday goodies for Oliver's birthday party, 22 Nov to celebrate the big day, 23 Nov to relax and 24 Nov to attend the School Sports Day and Graduation Ceremony of my niece Vivian. Sometimes, we just have to expect the unexpected.

Just one month before the 'break', Boon Heng broke the news that he had to attend a working trip in KL on 24-25 Nov. This meant that he could not attend the Sports Day. Then, I had to work on 23 Nov to carry testing on my office feedback system. Not too bad, changes in plan but we could still celebrate Oliver's birthday on 22. Yet, on 20 Nov, our November boy's body temperature seemed higher than usual. In the afternoon during the birthday celebration, Oliver looked tired. His left eyelid making his presence felt. Oh mine, we just have to expect the unexpected.

Oliver was away from school on Mon and his birthday. Then Heidi caught the virus and fell sick as well. Boon Heng also seemed to be suffering a bad runny nose condition. And I too, fell sickly on Thu during the Sports Day. Look like, it is meant to be -a week break from work.
