Reach for God

When u tried to reach for support and find urself falling face down, reach further. Reach for God's support and not man's. For man is weak and God is strong.

What a successful woman should be

Proverbs 31:10-31 (NIV)

A wife of noble character who can find? She is worth far more than rubies.
[11] Her husband has full confidence in her and lacks nothing of value.
[12] She brings him good, not harm, all the days of her life.
[13] She selects wool and flax and works with eager hands.
[14] She is like the merchant ships, bringing her food from afar.
[15] She gets up while it is still dark; she provides food for her family and portions for her servant girls.
[16] She considers a field and buys it; out of her earnings she plants a vineyard.
[17] She sets about her work vigorously; her arms are strong for her tasks.
[18] She sees that her trading is profitable, and her lamp does not go out at night.
[19] In her hand she holds the distaff and grasps the spindle with her fingers.
[20] She opens her arms to the poor and extends her hands to the needy.
[21] When it snows, she has no fear for her household; for all of them are clothed in scarlet.
[22] She makes coverings for her bed; she is clothed in fine linen and purple.
[23] Her husband is respected at the city gate, where he takes his seat among the elders of the land.
[24] She makes linen garments and sells them, and supplies the merchants with sashes.
[25] She is clothed with strength and dignity; she can laugh at the days to come.
[26] She speaks with wisdom, and faithful instruction is on her tongue.
[27] She watches over the affairs of her household and does not eat the bread of idleness.
[28] Her children arise and call her blessed; her husband also, and he praises her:
[29] "Many women do noble things, but you surpass them all."
[30] Charm is deceptive, and beauty is fleeting; but a woman who fears the Lord is to be praised.
[31] Give her the reward she has earned, and let her works bring her praise at the city gate.

Twice in 6 mths

The best things that can happen to a sick person:
- loving poppy
- unconditionally caring parents and granny
- super understanding and supportive colleague
- awesome weather for a good long slp
- home-cooked meals

And the only thing that sucked:
- lousy doctor.

Blazers and jackets

Went shopping for clothes to wear for Fionn's wedding.
Pops started trying the Zara jackets (his fav past time) and I have to say I really like him in blazers :P










Ok the photos were horribly taken coz I was trying to make it not so obvious to the salesman... I think he looks cute in blazers ;) too bad we're in Sg...

I'm not posting it on FB coz he wants me to QC the photos first... And none of them actually looks nice enough :P Anw I'm quite impressed w ourselves coz we managed to buy what we need in TWO hrs flat.

Make it last

The guy at the studio asked if we wanna have our couple grad photo on canvas instead of photo...

"Are u 2 married?"
"Nope"
"But if u put the photo on canvas it's going to last for a long long time."

And poppy said, " let's put it on canvas then."

HTHT

Poppy told me s'thing on Fri night that reminded me of how blessed I am.

I started crying so hard that I felt so silly.

Only half-way through did I realise that they were tears of joy :)

It's especially heart-warming when words are not the most common avenue for him to express his feelings.

S.

Seriously, enough shit today. Thought the night will be better, surprised it can get any shittier.

There's really just so much shit one can take.

No matter how good the intention, a max pt is a max pt. Period. No buts, no what ifs, no because.

I need a shower and blanket over my head.

P.S. I hate the S word, but nth expresses how I feel better den it. Shitty.
