A leap year

I thought that I would blog today since it was a leap year.
Hahahha... just so that I have an entry dated today :P

Anyway, here's some updates for this month that I had left out earlier.

First up, the present that I made for mummy's birthday coz i was too ill then to go out to buy her one. hehehhe... making things always make me feel better anyway. :)


Then also the new lampshade that i made for our room.
Ok.. maybe I didn't make it, but i doodled on it! hahah...


And here's a look at our new bedsheet that we got for Chinese New Year.
I like this pattern! :)


Hahaha.. and also here's the sweet and sour pork that Mr D cooked a few weeks ago.
He suddenly was really keen in preparing this dish. It turned out very well. Looks good right? Good job! :) Yummy!

Here's a look at our Valentine's day dinner!
We couldn't decide what to cook so ended up cooking a bit of everything! HAhahhaa....:P
We had chicken soup, mashed potatoes, stir fried french beans, roast chicken and also a small piece of rib eye steak each. Not forgetting a glass of red wine to celebrate the occasion too!

Card D drew for me! Hahahhaha... so cute!

And he surprised me with flowers! Hehehe.... tulips! My favourite! :)

Well again

Ah! Well in time for the Lunar New Year!
I was ill for about a week before that... :(
I hate being ill, spending the day going in and out of sleep, the headaches and chills... so miserable!
And this time round, while being ill, I got to experience how being blind was like.
Yikes you may say, but strangely, when it happened to me at that point in time, maybe being ill dulled me a bit, coz I didn't really panic. I think under normal circumstances I would have freaked out big time!
I just remember my vision clouding out by a grayish smoke and slowly went black. I thought I was going to faint, but I didn't. I just sat there holding onto my water bottle, with my eyes open, but just seeing this:

Luckily Mummy was with me. Hehe... I must have gave her a fright. I just remember saying a quick prayer in my mind that this is only going to last a while and my sight would be back to normal soon. Had a passing thought about what I would do if I could never doodle again. :(
The walk from the kitchen back to my room sure seemed longer when walking in darkness. It made me think of all the times I took my eyes for granted. You can imagine my relief when lying on my bed, the darkness began to clear and that gray haze started to clear the same way it came around. And I could finally see again. Phew! So glad I am well again... thanks to D for keeping me company at nights and especially Mummy, who braved the germs and took care of me! :)
