Handle Your Breastpump Equipment In Your Workplace

If you are breastfeeding and also a working mom, you might find this information useful.

I use breastpump to express my milk at office, 2-4 times a day. It will be harder if I have to sterilize my pump in between expressing time. There is a tip I found from a booklet by Australian Breastfeeding Association, on how to deal with this.

In between expressing, I simply store my pump equipment to a plastic storage with lid, and put them in the fridge. That way, the equipment will stay fresh and I can reuse them.

My Domain

I have a domain, hosting in some server at Singapore. It was supposed to be me and my husband's wedding invitation site. However, since the wedding (party, not the holy matrimony part) was canceled, the site stays there, empty.

I extend the domain and its space every year without doing any development on the site. Owh ok.. There was one time I blog there, but forgot to activate the anti-spam. Lots of new comments that selling stuff keep coming. Since I was a student, who always try to look busy, I did not have time to deal with those comments. And I just went silently out of that blog.

Now. I have time. Or I should say, I have to kill time. Being separate from Arie, my husband, makes me have to keep busy all the time.

Then I'm thinking to develop the site, and move this blog there. Err... move? Again? Hehehe...

I miss Arie so much...

Morning Monday!

It's Monday. Means morning meeting as an appetizer and English club as a dessert. But today I will skip the dessert, for I will only work half day. We have an appointment tonight for Amadeo's 3rd immunisation.

Actually today I am supposed to be on a leave. But my boss asked me to come because there are things to be done today and, oh well.. I can be replaced by anyone but he insisted me to come. It's fine by me, I love my job.

Hmm... need to start the day soon. Need a cuppa soon.


Miss Amadeo...

In Between Busy Days

It was last week that I thought I will not have anything to do. At least, not much. But I keep going, my brain works faster than it works in normal situation.

Today.
I had a meeting this morning, and here I am with a lot of things to do. I love this fact, though I know I will be very busy in couple of weeks ahead. Oh and also, I was offered to start involving in BI project for my division. I accepted the offer with all my pleasure.

I miss my baby Amadeo tho.. Last weekend, he was so clingy to me. They said, he might miss me as much I miss him when I'm not home.
We took him for his first swim. Everyone was happy. Was Deyo happy? We don't know :D At least, he didn't get cold after that.

Back to Work

No changing.

I try to implement Change Management tho..

Jakarta

I am in Jakarta now. Have been here since 3 weeks ago. Leaving Melbourne feels like leaving my comfort zone. I think I feel this way because I move to Jakarta.

Since I arrived here, many times I find myself trapped in uncomfortable situation. I don't have to mention the traffic jam in Jakarta. But I cannot help myself saying that traffic jam caused by some high level government officers who want to go home is ridiculous in anyway.

I went to two supermarkets, and completely confused about how the way they manage the product location. I went to a local airline ticketing office to change my husband's departing date. But they cannot change it locally, because it was issued in Melbourne. It will take 3 working days to get it fixed. I asked why, they said they need to send the message through telex service, and wait for Melbourne's office to reply it. I asked again, "why?". yea, why telex service? Why didn't they just use email?

Anyway, I'm still working to comfort myself in anyway I can. I love the weather, tho sometimes it's so humid. But it's good that I am not get cold in rainy day. I love the fresh market in my neighbourhood. It's clean and neat. And also provide so many varieties of food. I love being surrounded by people I love and love me. I love the fact that I can go meet my husband's parents with no string attached. Oh and I love Keitaro, he's smart and adorable!

Most of all, I love the fact that my baby boy, Amadeo, is growing so well. He's now 3.8kg and 51cm. We're dancing in breastfeeding, we're doing it like a couple of rockstar now.

I'm comforting myself with any happy moment that happened on me. I will survive here.
