Sit-Up

Hughie can now sit up from his stomach position. He did it for the first time 2 nights ago and when he finally did it, he clapped non-stop seeking for someone to praise him.

Since then, he rolled and crawl trying to sit up using his head as anchor. He has not mastered it yet but he is sharpening his skill every day. Next, I will have to be very careful with my things after this, he will definately be crawling on the floor, sit up .. grab for things and destroy everything in hand.

I can’t wait? Yea. I can’t wait.

Something Spiritual for today

Real servants pay attention to needs. Servants are always on the lookout for ways to help others. When they see a need, they seize the moment to meet it, just as the Bible commands us: "Whenever we have the opportunity, we have to do what is good for everyone, especially for the family of believers" (Galatians 6:10 GWT).

When God puts someone in need right in front of you, he is giving you the opportunity to grow in servanthood. Notice that God says the needs of your church family are to be given preference, not put at the bottom of your "things to do" list.

We miss many occasions for serving because we lack sensitivity and spontaneity. Great opportunities to serve never last long. They pass quickly, sometimes never to return again. You may only get one chance to serve that person, so take advantage of the moment.

"Never tell your neighbors to wait until tomorrow if you can help them now" (Proverbs 3:28 TEV).

Trumpet? Sell?

How do you sell yourself or shall I say, blow your own trumpet by writing 5-7 KEY points about yourself this year at work (with power punch words) to be submitted to the boss so that he can use that to rank you against other colleagues for your bonus?

Now, I know how to play the trumpet (from school) but I do not know how to power punch sell myself with flowery words. And … your words will be used against others for ranking to see who gets the highest bonus?! To make things worsts, I only have this boss for 1-1/2 months and he knows nothing about me or my work! This is so very sad. There goes my bonus!

Where is my dictionary? I have to choose my words w-i-s-e-l-y.

Drilling Rig

Hubby requested me to build him a drilling rig from my cake for his presentation today. That is already a challenge by itself. Drilling rig?!?! You have got to be kidding me?! He sent me a picture of his rig and gave less than 24 hours to work on it. Thank you for my sleepless night. But honestly, I started at 8pm and I finished it off at about 2am – not too bad (I think) but still, 2am on a working day is exhausting.

This morning, when I was about to go out to work, my dear cake was sweating!!! Sigh.. all my hard work. Hubby kept it inside the box the entire night causing it to sweat. Nice try. Lesson learnt.

The outcome of the simplest of the simple (I covered the basic things on the rig), can’t think of anything else – also, too sleepy to bother anymore.

**For those who have RM50 (old note), turn it backwards and you can see a drilling rig. That is somewhat too complicated for me to replicate!** 

There’s a heli pad, a crane and the rig. A supply vessel boat where the crane lifts things off (yes, attached a balloon there instead!!).

My red helicopter – hubby said it looked like a whale!! Boo hoo … at least my whale has propellers!

Another project

I have another project coming up. I was given a last minute request by non other than dear hubby!

Dateline: Tomorrow morning

That means, no sleep tonight for me. **boo hoo hoo**

Anyone knows the phone number of Santa’s helper? Harry Potter? Snow White’s dwarfs? Anyone, please?

But .. I like the challenge!

Thank you for the confidence dear. Next time, please DO remember to tell me in advance.
