Realised that Adam has got his 12th tooth on Sunday, probably popped up some days earlier.
He has finally got all 4 teeth in the middle in his bottom jaw.

Snow!
I forgot to tell what they really predicted about the weather.
Basically, stating there will be a usual December weather.
Cold and not so cold mixed and with a possibility for snow or rain depending on the temperature. So not much of a prognosis if you read all article, unless you stay in northern Sweden where the snow will stay after the coming weekend snowing.
My parents are not so I guess have just have to do as usual, wait and see.

Swedish news are not very much better!
I had just finished complaining about the RTM, when I opened Aftonbladet (Swedish newspaper) that put out the news:
"Where to expect a White Christmas" (in Sweden that is)
So you start reading the article:
Ligger snön vit där du bor så blir det en vit jul.
Det spår SMHI i långtidsprognoset.
What it says is if the snow has come down where you stay, then you will have a white Christmas. You don't have to be Einstein to figure that out right.
Anyway, that's what the Swedish Meteorological institute predicts and I am pretty darn sure they gonna be right this time. I know everybody is complaining about the meteorological institutes and that they never get it right, but this is ridiculous. I mean how general statements do you have to make to get it right?

RTM s****s!!!!
RTM (Radio TV Malaysia) as you can see from the name is the national broadcasting network in Malaysia. I try to listen to their news at 8:00 just to hear if something has happened that I could be interested in. And usually they just deliver statements from the politicians that would go without stating in the first place.
Anyway, the reason they really s**k will follow now.
There isn't a single UEFA Champions league round they can get all the results right.
Today "PSV was held to a goal less draw in Moscow against CSKA Moscow". The result in the rest of the world would be that PSV won 0-1 in Moscow.
And on the 24th of October "Celtic continued their good start of the campaign by beating Benfica". They lost 1-0 in Portugal.
How hard can it be to double check the results????

Mmmmm food
Thinking about Swedish food make me hungry.
So this is what I want to have when I come home.
I will add more when I remeber anything more.
So this is what I want to have when I come home.
- Rotmos (Mashed Rutabag/Swede).
- Fiskgratäng (Gratined fish)
- Lutfisk (Rehydrated dried fish)
- Ärtsoppa (Pea soup)
- Soppa med klimp (Soup with sort of dumplings)
- Lax mousse (Salmon mousse)
- Dillkött (Beef in a dill sauce)
- PyttiPanna
- Swedish rye bread or rather Swedish bread would be enough oh oh oh and Burkbröd (Mamma make a wonderful bread that you bake in a tin aaaaaah)
I will add more when I remeber anything more.
Almost well!
I returned to work again after one day of rest. I am not sure the rest, that wasn't that much anyway, really made much difference, but I am sure feeling better. Tummy almost OK, a bit of dry cough, almost no head ache and just a bit of dizzyness left. I should be well enough for the trip to Sweden.
It is less than two weeks to take off and I am going to Singapore on Friday for my wifes convocation. So we are busy. Both of us have to finish off all work before we go off as the new classes will start more or less right away when we get back.
What I look forward the most to in Sweden;
1. Family
2. Winter
3. Food
4. The nature
5. Christmas (don't really care very much about it, just didn't come up with anything better)
What I dread most about going to Sweden.
The darn flying would fill a top ten list.

Uh
Wednesday sucked big time. I started vomiting, Aida started vomiting and Adam continued vomiting. Great day huh. Luckily Poh-poh (Mor-Mor) is and was here to take care of the kids so I could spend the day in coma as I slept from when I came back from the doc until 13:00. Then I was up for an hour praying and eating and than back into the coma for another two hours and still felt like I could do with a nap after that.
Had to go to the doc again on Thursday as the darn doc just gave a one day MC and I certainly didn't have the energy to work (I spent the day sleeping again).
Today is Saturday and I worked yesterday and still feeling bad. Would have needed at least another day of MC.
Kids are almost recovered as well. Adam was OK already on Thursday and Aida and me were bloated with gas on Thursday night and Friday. Our tummies feel fairly OK now at least.
At work today too, to have a course for a computer programming for engineering modelling. It is interesting but I am just too tired to enjoy it totally.

Going home!
Adam is better so he has been released from hospital and is coming home today. So his tummy must have stabilised, maybe it was the rice water mummy made for him or he was just getting better anyway. It will be good to have him home again.
It is also less than 20 days til we go back to Sweden. I am curious to find out if it actually feels colder indoors in Sweden compared to my workplace. I think it is actually colder in Sweden but you don't get darn cold air blown on so it will probably appear warmer....brrrrrrrr it is cold here.
Oh wonder how it is in Sweden. Hold on.
It's 3°C with slight wind and no rain or snow.
A slight difference from 30°C and a some showers.
We all keep hoping for snow when we go back. Even Aida keep asking for snow, not that I am sure she know what it really is. She has actually been experiencing snow already, but she was just 3 months old then. But she is going with her mother and that usually means that it will snow. So lets hope for the best.

Weekend 17-18/11
Adam is in hospital again. He started having a slight diarrhea yesterday morning and then it kept getting worse. After his midday nap it was basically liquid so when I went up to get him I could see it leaking from his nappy. So I got a T-shirt to cover the bottom part of the nappy. That turned out to be a big mistake as his nappy was full of liquid shit and lifting him caused the nappy to overflow, so it started leaking really badly. So we had to shower while Norida cleaned the floors upstairs. When all of us were ready we set off for the clinic, where we got the verdict food poisoning. Just when he exited the doc’s office he started puking as well, so he got loads of medicine.
He seemed happier afterwards, so we thought that might be it. More or less everything that caused him to feel bed was out. We drove around for a short while, but before we reached home he started puking again and at home he just kept laying on the floor mixing resting with sleeping, totally knackered.
Norida was worried so she decided to bring him to hospital as he couldn’t even keep his milk down. So that’s were he is now, admitted until he get better, which might take a while as a kid has been there for with similar tummy problem since Tuesday.
Mummy is here to make it a two-shift caring. Mummy will do the daytime so Norida can work and Norida will do the out of office hours.
Aida seems quite OK and my throat and tummy is getting better though I sound like a Rod Stweart clone.
Managed to bake and should definitely do that more often, so nice and so fresh mmmmm and it doesn’t taste of Potassium Propionate and doesn’t contain any other crap.

Friday again!
I was quite surprised when I logged in and found out that I last updated this blog on 11 Oct, I didn't remember blogging that recently.
All family is not well, I got a terrible sore throat and a annoying gastric problem, the kids have basically got a cold and Norida is feeling weird!!
I don't have very much to write I just don't feel for start marking the 40 tests that my Physics student did yesterday.
We has open house last weekend. I cooked a big pot of some sort of chicken bolognese, baked 3 batches of brownies and 80 cupcakes. Norida ordered Nasi Kerabu. Looked like some sort of European convention at the house, two half-Swiss boys, playing with a half English girl and my little half swedes. So loads of halflings at our house.
We got plenty of food left over, luckily our friends were nice enough to bring quite a bit with them home or I would still be eating pasta and nasi kerabu. Some brownies are still left, even though they helped with that as well. We cut them really small as they are so filling, so it is like eating some yummy chocolate candy. I think there are some cupcakes left in the freezer as well.
I definitely have to bake this weekend. It is mostly because I been planning it for so long but also because I bought half a kg of dry yeast last week. I should be able to make more than hundred loaves of bread using my usual recipe on the baking machine. So I better start baking before it decays.
