Ever since we came back from Disneyland, we have been really busy. Everything around us seems to be needing extra care and attention – the lawn, the house, the cat, the 2 cars and not to forget that little active kid, Aidan!
Then at one point, I decided to put all my stress away and watch 24 episodes of Nora Elena and that was when my life went even more haywire. I am so glad I got that out of the way now
Within the last 7 days I have done 3 back to back oncalls and this morning I woke up feeling miserable even after having a full night’s sleep. So I think I better listen to my body and take it easy from now on. The belly is growing exponentially and finally colleagues at work are coming up to me to congratulate! I find that funny because I’ve been around these people for the last 5+ months. I guess I’ve hidden the bump quite well
Anyway, I will be moving to a more permanent 9-5pm job come July. I hope I’m making the right decision by taking up that offer. I had an informal meeting with the consultants and they have given me a list of my responsibilities for the new job. Hubby thinks I should take the challenge eventhough I will be heavily pregnant towards the end of summer. As I said before, Aidan will always be my number one so it took a whole lot of thinking. 3 offers came up without me applying for any of them and this must be rezeki for the baby in the belly. But then again, the shortage of doctors in Ireland is getting really serious that hospitals are hunting doctors down, hubby too was given 2 similar offers. Things were so different back then whereby foreign doctors struggled to secure any kind of post. I was fortunate to always have a job along the way.

My colleagues heard that I was leaving and they were so kind to give me a card and a little treat.I will be leaving the place with a heavy heart because honestly, it has been one of the best paediatric units that I’ve ever worked in. Brilliant hardworking Consultants that are approachable 24/7 and I aspire to be like them one day, insyaAllah.
Anyway, I came home from work yesterday and found Aidan’s artwork in his school bag. He was so proud of it!

I don’t know whether I should laugh or cry at the picture. He’s only two so it’s not all that bad, I will give him another year to improve
ps: Disney photos coming next!
