Chatty Lass

Read this earlier today, and reckoned that I should make it into a mini poster - for it to be a reminder for us all.

I was yearning for scrambled eggs and the only logical solution for that hankering is to whip some up for breakfast today.

While I was picking the eggs from the tray, I spied some shitake mushrooms lurking around the refrigerator and declared that they should paired with the scrambled eggs.

I'm reaping the result of my brilliant split-second decision now.

My supply of Greek yoghurt ran out, and I haven't got time to drop in the store. So, this was breakfast today...

Work wrapped up a little later than usual today, because I was on a two-hour conference call with our counterparts in UK and France. When the guy on the other end finally said "Cheerio!" and hung up, the lot of us who stayed back for the meeting gunned for the door and never looked back.

Friday (May 23rd, 2014)

AM: Work.

PM: Zoomed home after work. Jumped into the shower for a quick bath and I was on my way out with my Mumma for grocery shopping. We bought some ribs and russet potatoes at the market, so this was dinner...

I was facing a low period in my life several months back, when I just had so much on my plate to handle that I didn't know how or where to begin.

And then, *this* lovely gesture happened over dinner one of the nights and it truly lifted my spirit.

Today, I did a quick drop-in at the mall to grab some essentials. I hurriedly got what I needed, headed back to my car and was about to enter it when I was stopped by the same lady (the manager of Dragon-i) and I could see that she had no recollection of who I was. She asked (in a rather distressed tone) if there was by any chance that I had extra parking coupons with me and explained that she ran out of them.

I reached into my glove box, tore off several copies and told her not to worry about it.

God is truly magnificent. He positions us at an exact location for a specific time (Esther 4:14 - "For such a time as this" comes to mind) to be blessed during our time of need or to be a blessing to others in their moment of need.

The sweet lady might not remember who I was or how much her little act of good will meant to me, but I'm certainly averred today that we never really know how far the ripples of our kindness go and oh... what joy it is to be used as His vessel of blessing.

I was out for dinner with Tinki Talks and JZ last night. We selected Chilli's Grill & Bar Restaurant as our dinner venue, got a table and ordered...

I was completely guilty of being a glutton this past weekend and last night's dinner was no help...

Earlier today while I was walking back to my cubicle, my colleague, Archangel, stood in my way and smirked.

My uncle turns 50 tomorrow (He doesn't look a day older than 35), and he invited us (my family) for a little trip to Hatyai, plus a seafood dinner at Songkhla for the weekend.

AM: Church. Sang Celine Dion's 'Because You Loved Me' and dedicated it to all the mums in the house.

Because of the nature of my job, I am pretty anal about spelling.

Scratch that.

I am obsessively and compulsively hung up over spelling, to the point that I can no longer read any written copy without scanning for typos or punctuation errors FIRST; which makes me good at what I do, and a real pain to deal with outside of work.

When I read the following post (refer below), I was laughing AND jabbing myself in the eye with a pen simultaneously (the latter being done figuratively, of course).

Presenting...
