Toy'r Us training in the afternoon with Charlene @ Suntec in the afternoon. Yeppie! We were selected! I really need some cash! The training was good, they have really organised and strict internal circulation. Counting is more than just counting, it has to be of a particular sequence and order. They count by eyes and not count by feelings. I recalled when given an item of thousands of quantities, we often count by feelings.
Evening I went back to hospital to visit Andy again. He is transferred back to the normal ward. Another exact place, where Sim laid before he went for his operation. Tubes and wires were attached to him to monitor his heartbeat and drain out the excess residual and blood. Kok Guan and Carol visited him with chicken essence and fruits and prayed for him. For the first time, Andy is so fervent about prayers. While Andy is free from the oxygen mask and severe pain, Sim is free, so free that he started strolling around the ward. Down the corridor, from one end to the other, from the toilet to the bed, probably looking for the chio nurse who took his blood pressure. Freedom of mobility is something we often took for granted. He was truely appreciating it.
Guess the meaning of the coconut sign in the hospital! Go on. You wouldn't guess it!
Dinner @ Opal Crestcent and headback home, drained and tired. Spontaneously, mum wanted to watch fireworks downstairs, so we did a mini count down on the picnic matt in a wide plain grasspatch. While we were enjoying the new year count down, so did the mosquitoes. They had a new year feast. Big feast. Dom, Hazel and friends, my neighbour Qiu Xuan were all there too. Somehow they diffused into the crowd and we too were lazy and tired to hunt for them, which is equivalents to finding needles in a sea.
Even the doctor says firework is visible from the window of Andy & Sim's Ward. Maybe they will do the count down together by the window side.
