Our Little Kidney Bean






Some pics of Little One
Today is a special day as it is the first time we both set eyes on our little kidney bean.

We had the first gynae appointment today at TMC with Dr WK Tan ( I swear I made the right choice by having her as the chosen one). well, the first appointment was indeed what they state in the books - checking up on family medical history, our family planning plan that was in place ( was it?), the results of the recent check up we both did.

It was a brand new experience for us both as we get to see little one for the first time ( at least for C, it is a testimonial that there is something in my tummy!!!) and also to prepare us for what is about to happen.

The take away - rest plenty, no strenuos exercises, no travel till we reached 12 weeks! Next appointment is 2 weeks from today and I am counting down.. I like to see how our little kidney bean grows to its next stage....

Opps I did IT again!

Well well, I seriously do not know if I should laugh it out loud or just pure pure luck!
=) Something happened at work again today! and my psychic powers are working again! (I think).

The copier machine just doesn't have power all of a sudden after a busy day of work usage.
The IT guy went to troubleshoot and checked all means and realised Yes - The machine is really out of order. Called the service desk of Brand X and have a technician to come the next day at 830am to repair it so that the staff can use before the official working day starts.

Me being me went and dabble with the parts of the machine, the power chords, the connections and fumble upon a switch (similar to the power-up switch) and turn it on.
VIOLA!!!! the machine powered up!!! This is the SECOND TIME!!!!

I am pre-empting for the third one to come ( keep my fingers crossed!)...... Do I have to give thanks to Little One? (heee...)

Physic powers bestowed on me?

I had to blog on this incident at work yesterday. Our office doors are monitored by 24 hours security alarm system and all staff need to enter and exit with the tap of the card.

Two of the doors - marketing room store door and the main employee entrance door was just tightly shut and refused to unlatched even with the tap of the card. The IT guy went to check and found out that the fault was due to the control card being faulty. In a nutshell, no amount of tapping of cards and unclicking of the controls on the main desktop can unlatch the door. The doors remained tightly shut. Simply refuse to open its mouth.

Now me being me place the thinking cap to good use. If the system is controlled by electrical wires connecting the hardware and the software, one way to get the door open was to remove the wires, right? I threw this question to the IT guy and he told me not possible. (Now.... how can that be? Just open the box where the hardware is, pull out the wires and then it sort of send a message to the system that this door is not connected and can be opened).

Then being a Taurus by birth, the innate stubborness is at work. I do not believe it. I storm into the IT room and start to try the box and then in front of me, there are like 1001 boxes for you to try your luck on the wires to be pulled out. (So forget it!) I decided to use the control clicking as the first solution step. What I did was just to find that particular door and right mouse click and select Unlock Door, the red dot becomes green. I did the same for the other door. The same thing happen.

What follows next is both doors are now able to open!

IT guy: What did you do to make the doors open?
Me: I simply do the clicking on the main computer controls.
IT guy: But that was what I did exactly just now! and It didn'y work at all. I think you have that Magic Touch
Me: (just smile)

You know what... I guess it was the physic powers that came to me there and then and well, call me nuts, I like to credit to Little One. (if C reads this, confirmed he thinks I am insane!)
