On Leave for A Week

Finally it is my turn to take a week's leave from work. I vaguely recalled my last leave was in December when the office managed to get a relief to cover my work for that few days. However, I have nothing planned ahead for that few days. In the end, that few days were spent sleeping and reading at home.

For the coming break from work which I have been longing for quite some time, I decided to do quite a few things during this short week.

I intend to go for Hep A & B screening before getting its vaccination. I called Bukit Batok polyclinic but no making of an appointment is needed. Hep A virus mainly comes from uncooked shell fish such as cockles or contaminated water. Hep B virus can cause liver cancer and this type of virus can spread from shared needles or syringes, blood or body fluids, ... etc.

Next, I will be meeting Doris one of the mornings for a good chit-chat. We have not been able to catch up with one another for a long time. She has left teaching so that she can spend more time at home with her two lovely kids. I do agree that working mums have lesser and lesser time spent on their families. I envy her for making such a bold decision by leaving her high-pay job to become a full-time housewife.

Then, R will be moving his nest to City Square. I have agreed to help oversee the movers moving his belongings over. He has quite a lot to move. I wonder how his packing getting on. I hope he does not need my help for his unpacking as I myself, is quite an untidy person.

Of course, not forgetting to read a few story books and take 40 winks during my week.

Let us see how this short break will turn out.
