Off for my birthday getaway

So glad to be away for my birthday. It's really a much needed break since the last holiday I took in December. These few months have been busy with work. So of course a break anywhere is good especially when I'm with my dear hubby.

Happy and thankful that he's so sweet to take time off work to spend my birthday with me.

Look forward to being refreshed, rejuvenated and recharged :)

It's not everyday that I get to knock off at 5pm. Yes, a good 15 mins before my official knock off time at 5:15. That's why sometimes, attending workshops are a good "get away" from the office.

Had dinner at Vivo City with Alexis, my bro and his gf. It almost seems like yesterday when my bro and I were kids screaming and fighting with each other in the house. Now we're all grown up, talking about work, the family and all over coffee. When did time fly by so fast?

In another 8 days, I'll be turning 28.
And just 2 more years before I hit the big 30s!
I feel unprepared to be 30. There are still things that I want to do before I turn 30...

Rest


Hide me now under Your Wings
Cover me within your mighty hands

When the oceans rise and thunders roar
I will soar with you above the storm
Father You are King over the flood
I will be still know You are God

Find rest my soul in Christ alone
Know His power in quietness and trust

When the oceans rise and thunders roar
I will soar with you above the storm
Father You are King over the flood
I will be still know You are God

I want to have that rest in God. Knowing that all is well when I leave it in His care, in His hands. Not to have to worry about anything but to have that quiet trust that He loves me and His grace is sufficient for me.

There are days when I struggle to reconcile the fact that its in spite of what I've done or failed to do that God still loves me for who I am. Thank you God.

My Sunday

Sundays.. A day I really look forward to in the week. Of course there's church where I'm reminded of who I am, why I'm here and that I'm still a work in progress who's far far from perfection. Thank God for that weekly reminder, of God's grace and hope that can be found in Him!

Today Alexis and I went to Ginrich at Hereen to get out hair done. Courtesy of Rachael who highly recommended her stylist to me. Didn't regret it and it was a high price to pay for too. But like my new colour. It's really been sucha long time since I last went to Orchard and spent the day there. Alexis was of course very sweet to accompany me shopping for my retail therapy :) We had fun, holding hands, being on our weekend date, enjoying each other's company on a lazy Sunday.

And then it's back to face the work week tomorrow! Monday here I come.
