And This was What Happened

First there was this, then it all happened....

Sometime in the wee hours of 4th Jan 09, this car was speeding behind us, so we allowed him to overtake...he zoomed passed us, through the toll plaza and then suddenly we arrived at slow traffic and guessed there was an accident. And low n behold, that particular car has turned turtle. Amidst slow traffic (queue at 2am is very rare unless its a police block or an accident), some Mat Rempits (also from before the toll plaza) approached and one fella knocked into the left of our car (He probably skidded on the oil on the road or he too lost control on the road bend at high speed), and subsequently took a tumble. So we stopped. And few seconds later, we were bangged from the rear, and this time, one huge THUD!

The car which kissed us from behind. Badly damaged front. Thank God our rear end wasn't THAT bad. Someone had hit him from behind and that caused him to lurge forward and hit us. So poor blue iswara was smashed front and rear. And that car which hit him from the rear supposedly wanted to park at the site, but he ended up running away from the scene. Thank God we had his number plate.



So for the past few days we were left we the 'giant' only...Thank God we were not in the wrong in this case, and so the police in charge helped us a lot. The workshop we sent the car to also helped us speed up the repair. So hopefully by tomorrow we'll get lil' Neo back...
and that is why 2009 has started with a mix of sorts....:)

And at Week 38, baby's ready but my body not so ready yet. So we'll wait till my next appt next week to determine if we are going to do anything bout it, if by then I've still not had any labour symptoms.

Dr prefers to have me deliver in the day, in view of readily available people and assistance, if required. So I've asked Junior to do as it should and not complicate it for us. And pray that God willing, it will be an easy labour and delivery.

Mum will be here again next week.

2009

So far, only one major incident has happened. But the MAIN event has yet to come. Yes, 2009 will be starting with a bang with the arrival of Junior which hubby and I are waiting patiently for. Yeah, my mum and dad too are eagerly waiting for the new addition to our family. And we are all excited.

I guess Junior has his own plans. At week 37 (circa end 2008, begining 2009), he has yet to be 'fully engaged' hence he is still taking his time. Guess he wasn't going to surprise us by giving us a new year pressie.

I'm eager to see if he has yet settled tomorrow as I'm due for another check up. Up till today (week 38 already), I've not had any signs of Braxton Hicks contractions or the real ones. :)

So we are all still waiting patiently and eagerly. Everything has been set up. The 'nursery' is ready, my bags are packed and we're all just waiting for the first signs to go!!

I'm still at work and not ready to start my leave. I wanna be on leave later for longer. Why now when I am still able? hehe

Chinese New Year 2009 will also hold a different meaning since Mum and Dad will be in KL, so I guess the festivities would be 'shifted'. It'll also be my first CNY in KL, other than the 2 years I had overseas last time.

Apart from that, I can't tell what 2009 would be like but it's going to be extremely busy juggling motherhood, work and perhaps some training.

To all out there - hope 2009 is filled with all things you've been working/asking for.
