Today, 10/30/2007 is our 18th Anniversary... Can't believe it was 'that long' since we said 'I do'. We actually celebrated yesterday as Andrew will be very busy today. (go for a preceptor class fr 8am till 4pm, followed by night duty fr 7 pm to 7am tomorrow!!) As for me, I hv another 2 days of jury duty, ie today and last day on Thurs....Then I'll be 'free' fr jury duty for 6 years!!!
So, we had a quiet, simple & relax evening, celebrating the 18th long years that we had had together as husband & wife... We talked, shared, laughed, reminised and counted our Blessings thus far.... It was a wonderful times of togetherness.
We thanked the good Lord for all that He had done for us. Esp that He had answered my ernest prayer for Andrew's spiritual growth... Andrew has been attending church services w me for 2 months, eventhough most times he was tired & sleepy after returning fr his night duty, He enjoys & likes the sermon, worship & being there to feel the Holy spirit's flow & guidence. God has bless him, opens his eyes & mind to realised His greatness, promises, guidence, love & mighty power. Indeed He is a miraculous God!!
Andrew is also very supportive & encouraging in my church activities...In fact, we will be submmiting our application for membership to the church this week, I can't thanked God enough for that... After all the blessing, promises, love, healing and mercy that He had given to us, there is no hinderence to stop us fr devoting our life to God's grace & calling... A new chapter of our life has began, this time, it is going to be fruitful, righteous & Best....
Our love, trust, loyalty & respect for each other remain unchanged & they hv grown stronger, sweeter & deeper as times go by. It's amazing that till todate he is still the same person who can make me Laugh & Smile at life w compassion.... That was the best thing that happened in my life, otherwise w all the many years of struggle, fight, challenges fr all the medical ordeal, I will never make it till todate! I thanked God for giving me Andrew constantly... He is my pillar, fortress, inspirtion & motivation in life....
Reflecting, this year was such a great one for me in all area. I am feeling strong, happy, energetic, active, lively and looking forward to everyday w positive, assuring attitude. A total good and bleesed improvement & changed...It is God that had make all these possible, as nothing is impossible with Him, Amen...
May we continue to grow in Him and bulid our foundation in Him as husband & wife, both spiritually & phisically. Honoring, praising & worshipping Him all the days of our life....

Went for Jury duty. Today we hv 4 cases on drug dealing/procession. All t count 'true bill'! It was another short seesion day, we were dismissed at 1pm. Everybody is Happy!!

Yesterday was a great day for us. The commissioner & Mr Anthoy fr the building Dept came to inspect the basement & 'sub-basement' after we got the White Plains Mayor's support & intervened in our home situation...(Thanks to Cat, it is her 'good' acquitence & relationship w the Mayor that helped us to get the support & direction fr him. (he had told the commissioner to check & look into our situation & help to resolve them...

The inspection was a favorable one. Everything that was once considered as 'violation' by the building Dept r all OK now...The basement is allowed to live & sleep & later may apply for it to be legalised... Then eventually apply to convert it into 3 family home!!

10/09/2007 It is 1 am in the morning. Went to MS, not feeling tired nor sleepy at all, after watching/catching up w most of the past week's new falls preview, I called sis Tan Mooi to chat. Haven't called for a while.
We talked fro a long time. Apparentlt, bro in law is showing a lot of progress/mprovement w the new health products, Ca-Can, a product of USA, fr California!! Am happy to hear that. Hope that it will elimimate the need for surgery w this product. Will check it out... They hv joined as a member, so I urged them to recommend to their friends who hv health issues. It is also a direct selling, so in a way, they may benefits & cut down on their cost. It cost $180/2 weeks. Rather expensive for the medium income gp....
Jut Go wanted & sh try it for her terrible mgraine, but due to the cost, will let Ah Tiam to take for his numbness in his hands, which had been suffered for yrs!! (Well, if only he can STOP smoking, then he would't need that for himself!!) Wondered when & how 'long' will he realized the truth about his role in supporting the family & really make the dicision to quit the heavy/chained smoking habit of his... Well, he never did make an effort to quit, at least for his loved ones, moreover they r facing a soon coming finacial 'crisis' after bro's company moved to it's new venue... He will be jobless then, and yet hv not plan as to what the future lies??!!! I feel really 'sorry' for Jut Go, all these yrs, she worked hard & sacrificed for the family more than he did... Guess I hv to do s'thing to help her out. I hate to see them living like that, a family w-out much emotional support, sharing, understanding & motivation....God pls help me to this right!!
Glad that an intereated caller for the co-op. Will come to meet w us timorrow. So my 'job' tomorrow is to check & clean it (if needed)b4 the meeting. Then I hv to go for dental appt, followed by Jury duty at 1.30pm. (This will be the 3rd time I am being called, after 2 postponement), guess they just won't let me go, no way to eacape.
