Let it snow...let it snow....






We had the worst winter showers in 18 years. I m so happy to see Shazmeen and Nora enjoying the snow. I was getting ready to go to work on....
Monday morning when I look outside the window, it was snowing heavily....Everything was white. Woke up Shazmeen and Nora at 7 am and they are so excited to see the heavy snow shower. They put their cloth on and winter jacket and went outside to play with the snow. It was fun.
I left for work that morning only to be told when I got there to go home and no plant or site is open. So, we had a day off...and being paid for it.
Tuesday the snow was on the ground and it's cold. Went to work as usual only to be told after 10 mins at the office to go home...AGAIN! I m getting used to this now.....
Today....again I was told to go home but since I have work to do and reports to finish, I decided to stay on. The day was sunny but rather chilly....
Tomorrow...well the Met Office web site indicate that it will be snowing again. Well....let it snow...let it snow....let it snow.....

Finally..........I'm back....

It's been a long time since I had the chance to write on my own blog but I guess I must have writer's block.....It's almost a month into the new year...How fast the time flies....
It's been quite worrying looking at the economy in the UK now as too many companies are closing down. We had to take a pay cut of 15% from this month and heard it from the grapevine there is another 10% paycut in February. Job prospect in not good and my best options is to hang on to what I have.
I m so looking forward to come back to Malaysia but if it is worst there I m in a dilemma! I need to come home because of my parents and I sincerely hope with the grace of Allah, we are home soon..........

Life, its all about touching-
Bringing sunshine to others
Who dwell in gloom,
Giving a word of encouragement
To the faint hearted.
Gentle squeezes of a hug
To lift the spirit,
Wiping tears
From those that are crushed.
A kind word to an elder
To show they are loved,
Blessing the birth
Of a newborn child.
Holding of the hands
Sharing the warmth,
Giving our hearts
To commitments in life.
Sharing that special love
With someone so close,
It only takes a second
To touch a longing heart
Only to make a difference
