evil airfryer

Such an evil airfryer.
especially when you were alone on weekend night (husband went for his weekly badminton game and will only get back around 3am), you got hungry, couldn't sleep because you got excited playing Candy Crush's level 95 but you have no more live to go on, you saw the airfryer and there were some frozen drummets in the freezer. Bam, you put some in the pan, switched on the airfryer, set it for 20minutes and started folding up the laundry while waiting it to cook. yummy drummets and no oil are needed to cook it.

Call me weird but if husband presented me a rm1K designer bag instead of that supercool airfryer I've been talking about for the past 4 months, I'll be dead furious.

First, that bag value more than the money I have in my purse. I definitely don't need a very costly handbag which I will keep in a dustbag and put it nicely in the cupboard because it's just too expensive for everyday wear (and I don't go out that often to use it).

Second, he's not listening / paying attention to the words/hints I've given about how lovely to have an airfryer in my kitchen.

However, we arrived home from Selayang just now. Husband went down again to bring more stuff from the car while I was busy taking care of Kamil, I didn't notice what he brought in.

About an hour later, I saw the airfryer box on the kitchen's table top. Eh, kotak je ke, ade isi ni? I wasted no time and opened the box.

Eyes gleaming with tears, "abang, you shouldn't have!!!" Jumping joy.

So abang, this means you can have crispy ayam goreng everyday for the rest of your life. ngeeee

The working mom

Kamil with wet cloth surrounded his head to ease down the temperature

This little angel has been sick since Saturday and Ibu was on leave for 4 days already.


It started with runny nose and cough last 2 Mondays ago. Kamil is just too cute, relatives kept on kissing and hugging him during the 2 events before his illness started. Some people are insensitive about this. Babies are super fragile human being. Their immune systems are not fully developed. I was thought not to be too "friendly" with babies for this kind of reason. No offense but I don't go kissing someone else's babies even how cute they are because I fear that they will get infected with whatever germs and bacterias that I had on me.

His body temperature increased on Sunday and we brought him to PPUM's Emergency for Paed on our way home to Putrajaya that night. (I'm loving it here, the service is super fast and freeee. Thist was our third time here).

Doctor advised to seek treatment again if he has fever on the fifth day. he prescribed paracetamol and augmentin antibiotic which I think is rather strong for such a young baby, so I didn't give any. We went to the clinic yesterday when his body temperature went as high 39 degrees celcius in the middle of the night and refused to drink (direct feed or bottle feed).

Clinic did blood test and alhamdulillah, nothing serious. The white blood cell count was a bit high, meaning that there's an infection. Doctor prescribed a less stronger antibiotic (which I will only give to Kamil if he still has fever). Alhamdulillah, it has been 36hours since the last time I gave him paracetamol and his health is improving and so does his appetite (he still refuses to direct feed, ibu feels sad :( .

I took 4 1/2 months leave after giving birth, went to work later for 5 days and I was on leave again for 4 days. Work is crazy. In a way, I'm glad I am not at the office but I feel guilty for my colleague who has to share some of my work when I am not there. So this is like to be a working mother. You are torn between going to work or taking care of your child at home.

Many have warned me, my annual leaves are usually used for emergency leave when my kid gets sick. I pray that Kamil and I will be in good health always so that I can work religiously for what I have been paid for. Ameenn.

junkfood for the unwell

I have eaten nothing but junk for the last 8 hours. I fried 10 chicken balls for breakfast and a packet of Munchy's wafer for lunch. I gave excuses to myself that I can eat anything because I am not well.

I have measles. At the age of 29 I am infected with measles. Tiny measles said the doctor last night.

It started on Wednesday with some kind of rashes on the face. I thought I must have eaten wrongly or the unbalance hormone resulting skin break-out. Then the sort of rashes thing spread to the whole body the next day. I googled measles and I didn't have any of the symptoms except this red rashes all over my body.

It just didn't feel right.

I went to the clinic last night and the moment the doctor saw my arms, "you have measles".

"But I don't have fever, cough, joint pain. and the rashes isn't that itchy"

"It defers from one person to another depending on the antibody. Maybe your antibody is stronger so it suppressed most of the symptoms. Yours is actually at the end stage. You should be ok in 3-4 days. It's contagious so I'll give you mc for tomorrow"

"Is it ok to breastfeed my baby"

"Your baby is actually being exposed to the disease since the last 4 days. Just continue breastfeeding him so that he'll received your antibody to fight this disease as well. Maybe you can minimise your contact with him or wear a mask when you are around him. Don't forget to drink a lot of water"

My so called conversation with the doctor.

Last night was the first night I slept without Kamil by my side since I gave birth to him.

It was lonely to sleep alone, so every few hours, I crept in the room just to see him sleep. I haven't kiss him since the doctor said I have measles.

So this is what it feels to be a mother...

Well, 3 hours more till I get to see both my babies. I am hungry, instant noodles anyone?
