great weekend ;)

doesn’t need to be far..
or spend too much..

a 5 ringgit basic set of badminton rackets,
old torn kite with some new ‘touch’…
plus..
a visit to nearby nursery for few more new plants..
this time we picked ‘a bungalow’s type plant’ and few heliconias..

our weekend was superb!!

healthy sweat, good laugh, dirty-soiled hand and beautiful lawn..

we craved for more..

eve’s surprise..

after having few ‘tiring’ cases during the day, i received a phone call saying we’ll have guests coming over for dinner..

our pakcik from Taiping..

so i cooked.. as usual.. with extra in everything.. the main was masak lemak cili api daging salai with pisang muda.. the rest were mouth watering enough.. penuh meja.. tk payah cerite..

but guess what… not just pakcik n d gang.. but 3 big families were with them..!! aiyyaa… awat tak habaq..

so, the episodes of ‘nasi tak cukup, masak lagi pun tak cukup..’ made me frustrated..

we had good time, still..
being together with loved ones is always the best!

good lesson to me.. next time jgn ter ‘pedo-pedo’ (org kedah kata..).. masak je sepuluh pot.. tak abih buat nasi goreng!! hheeee…

happy holiday, everyone..!!
how i wish it’s snowing today..

2 org budak yg tk sabar nak main snow..

good job?

it’s been quite sometimes since my last note about my patients.. they are one of my ‘loved ones’ too, ya know..
asyik cerita jalan2 je..

anyway,
yesterday’s ones made me realised something..

when this patient.. keep telling me.. repeatedly
“dr, please do a good job for me, ya..”
i said.. “yes. sure i’ll do..”
and again after rinsing his mouth..
“do good job, ya.. for me..”

the truth is.. his words ‘hit’ me..
am i really doing (did) a ‘good’ job all this while??

hurrmm…

lets muhasabah………………………………………

2 weeks time

everything will change in 2 weeks time!!

- new school for the kids.. new time.. new schedule..

- no more ‘going to the clinic together’ with fighting n yelling in the car..

- i will be accompanied by the maid and baby Haydar only..

- i may not have ‘another 5 minutes‘ nap before waking up for subuh prayer.. i might be ‘jump up from the bed’!! who knows!!

- imagining 2 active kids and an adult to prepare early morning…! hoping there’ll be no ‘drama’ or ‘incidents’ whatsoever..

- their so called ’study room’ in the clinic is yet to be.. still in the process.. so slow..

- baby’s playmates will only be back later in the afternoon..

- i’ll be ‘mati kutu’ when Haydar sleeps, no kids, no patients…

so many things in my mind…
things that’ll happens in 2 weeks time…

insyaAllah..

busy..

we’ve been busy…

busying ourselves..
with..
nature…

journey starts @ 5am…
to Felda Kepayang, Temerloh..
breakfast by the river.. Sg Pahang (no photos taken)..

gulai patin tempoyak is a must!!

to Tasik Bera for picnic..

the best part..
… good experience for the kids.. err.. i mean ‘budak KL masuk kampung‘ ..

semuanya geli, takut, toilet tak best, sejuk sangat, baby takut ayam berkokok, bau tak best, smelly cow, bedroom kt rumah lagi best.. etc

and made them appreciate their cosy and comfort present life more..!!

will definitely be back..

note to self

i (we)’ve decided long ago..
no matter how much i love doing my job..
i dont want to do it forever..
give it..say.. another 10 years max.. (insyaAllah)
i’ll switch!!

and i’m on d track towards that..
hopefully i am..

just need to ‘learn’ some new things..
+ best buddy’s guidance..
+ experiences (our best GURU!)..
+ courage..
+ do’a n tawakkal..

and inspiration from our beloved walid..

nothing is impossible..
sky is the limit!

the best is yet to be!!

insya Allah…

auumm…

found this photo..
taken on that ’sinfully delicious’ day..
when we had to leave him behind..
and 4 of us agreed to buy that costume..
which suits him nicely..

our tiger baby… auummm!!

mom-dentist

i think i have extracted almost about thousand deciduous (milk) teeth from as young as 3 year old child!

i’ve been dealing with many types of children patients..

from those who will scream out loud even before entering the surgery room.. to those who drag and ‘force’ their parents to bring them to see Dr Sharifah when there’s only slight mobility detected!!

i feel honoured in both cases..

but.. my most dreadest moment of all as a mom-dentist.. finally happens!!

to deal with my son’s first extraction!!!

after keeping the grade 3 mobile tooth for more than 2 weeks and few attempts to pull it out failed (he cries..and cries.. and cries….)

finally, yesterday, i heard him complaints about difficulty to eat..

i know.. it’s about time to do it!!

anyone who sees this will definitely feels ‘geram nak cabut!!’

it’s danggling.. loosely to the gum.. out of allignment already..and becomes class III malocclusion!! hehe..

but again… my attempt yesterday failed… he cried… huaaaa…. jiwa mama kembali meruntun sayu..

so i let it..
let it drop by itself..
let he feels the pain when eating..
let hungry teaches him..
let the soft cococrunch in cold milk be his dinner while others happily eat crabs and fish sambal..

and let mama play her role as a mom.. praying the best for her son!

this morning.. my prayers finally answered..

“gigi harith dah cabut sendiri masa tidur!!” d biggest grin in 2 weeks!!

yeayyy!! yattaaa!!! syukurrr… alhamdulillah..

but… errr…. there are 19 more to go, dear…

NINETEEN!!!
NINETEEN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
