New Baby

By Ers   July 07, 2012 // 1 comment
Our friend welcomed a new baby to the family - a girl. Their second child. We visited her once and she seemed be one contented baby as she slept despite the raucus of two toddlers running around chasing each other. We have not been to the baby shower at bestbabyshower, if they ever had one. We were so happy for them, their family is growing and my little boy just loves their 1st born - he considers him his brother.

7 Years in a Row

By Ers   July 07, 2012 // 1 comment
On my way home from the customer's site which by the way was very late, people were buzzing around the city and area around Suncorp Stadium, where the last origin game will be. I was excited about it but was quite disappointed because the I was not anywhere a telly. It would be late till I got home. Thankfully, it was just halftime when I set foot in our lounge. Queensland team, me being one, was ahead 6 points. After the half-time it was level to 20 and one of the Maroons did a field goal. It was historic. The stadium was all marooned, literally. Loads of logo golf balls won't find its way with the massive crowd. I'd say, I am a very proud fan.

Tummy Bug

By Ers   July 07, 2012 // 1 comment
The night I got back from being away for two nights, the little boy was ill. I was told he ate mix of food that didn't blend well together in his tummy. He's been sick 3 times before 12MN. I was worried of course but he weathered it like a trooper he is. Not too much whining. Another bout of sickness came around 3AM and I was not comfortable to leave him that day so I took a carer's leave, which my boss find didn't any problem despite the fact that one of our customers is going live (which people at work who are involved got a bronze bar so to speak). Thankfully, that day went really well. He was just perky as can be. Apparently, after talking to the staff at kindy a tummy bug is going around. Some of the kids at school were also sick. And an officemate of mine was also sick that week with the same cause. Thankfully, it didn't get any other of us at home.

Business Trip

By Ers   July 07, 2012 // No comments
I have been away from home for 2 nights in a row this week starting Monday. Our customer went live in their opening using our system. My two other colleagues went there to facilitate and assist. It was my first to be directly involved in the Go Live and yet despite my experience with just being a support at work while others are onsite, it was a pretty relax implementation. I reckon, it is attributed to the company really being ready for it plus the relationship that has been maintained all throughout. They went live on Thursday. I can say all the good things but then it will not be realistic then, is it. But I can only say something not so nice about the weather. Some mornings it was below zero but the use of ray ban 2132 during the day is still appropriate and for a tropical-blooded through and through it was a shock to my system. I had to use blankets and throw pillows as draught stopper. I survived.
