Saw this image on Facebook and this kind of encapsulates what I feel right now!

This week was a bad one in terms of my medication – I think I missed one dose as many as three times during the week. I really don’t know how that happened, as usually I am quite diligent about making sure I take my medicine dose on time. Is this my body’s way of telling me that I don’t need so many doses in a day? Well we’ll know the next time I go to the doctor and she takes my blood to be tested.

Work-wise has been a very busy week, but I have kind of internalized my  future plans in this company. I will wait till the second week of March to start my prep work to ensure that by the time we reach the end of the PSLE madness and the new year, I will be in a much better position career-wise, I am determined to do that for myself this year….

Hello there February, why did you come in so early….You could have taken your time…But seriously, is it just me or does anyone else feel that January just went galloping by!

A mixed week in terms of food choices – I made some good and some not-so-good choices while eating. So weight has also been stagnant, no increase, but no reduction either!

Work, like I mentioned last week, the thing that HR sounded me about, came true and the only small consolation is that it has been made clear that it’s an interim solution. So I decided that “If life gives you lemons, let’s make lemonade!” I decided that if I am to work with this person, then I will learn something new from him/her and also showcase what I know about this person’s area of expertise before it ends. So let’s see how this all pans out…

Other than that, life goes on…I really feel I have a really boring life – no excitement, no fun…But then this year is all about GG & BB, once their life post-primary school has been settled to the best of our ability, I’ll feel so much more relieved!

Okie, here’s a funny work video to brighten up your Monday!

And just like that we’re in the last week of January! The year seems to be zipping by and I’m powerless to slow it down…

My parents went back home yesterday evening and I’m feeling a bit sad! I don’t know when I will meet them next, hopefully they come back to Singapore at the end of the year or we make a trip to Mumbai!

This week has been particularly bad – I made bad food choices, which reflected in my weight and blood sugar readings and then I was sounded out for something by our HR which I am not happy about, which in turn made me eat more bad things! Need to seriously work on this for this next week.

At work, part of my responsibilities include doing admin work. My previous boss was good enough to recognise that this is not what I trained for or what I have experience and so made it a very small part of my job – the other 80 to 90% was stuff I wanted to do and was good at. Now the talk at work seems to be since I do not have a boss (my ex-boss was promoted and moved away to another country and his successor is not in place yet), I should be doing the admin work for someone else. They mentioned it was for an interim period, but I have my doubts. I am not qualified, nor trained for this and so I told the HR lady that – it is not fair on the new person who may be expecting someone who can do this job 100% and by someone who has experience in this. Lets see what the outcome is of this.

I have also decided to bring forward my plans for my career. I was going to wait till around August/September to set things in motion, but will bring that forward by half a year. More on that when I set things in motion and things start falling into place.
