閑談 -- 终于 减肥了!

腰酸背痛

时间过得真快 我去工作一个月了
每一天 从摸黑的 四点五十分起床梳洗
乘搭第一班 或第二班 的轻轨列车
到达托儿所 大门口 大概 五点五十分

托儿所的面积 是两间政俯组屋的五房式所打通而成的
六点钟开始 扫地后抹地  七点钟休息十五分钟吃早餐
这时候 小朋友陆续来了 七点十五分  去隔壁间开时打扫
隔壁 较为小间 是给 三岁以下的小朋友 所在处

八点半 过来打扫老板班公室内 十分钟就能打扫完毕
之后 "自由空间" 自个安排 要整理 或 抹小朋友的橱柜等






十点十五分  就是每一天 最为忙绿的时间的开始
忙着跟小朋友冲凉  接着 抹睡垫  后到隔壁 洗厕所
两班较为大的孩子们 一共三十一二个学生冲凉
睡垫 却要抹大约四十八张 包括 N2 幼儿班的

般若念佛堂

若隔壁幼儿的老师不在  多抹二十多张  还好这不常有


一点钟 午餐后休息 直到两点钟  再洗大间的厕所
三点钟小朋友睡醒后  帮忙收起床垫 便可以下班了.
忙忙绿绿的一天 时间眨眼 就这样过去了

施着疲惫又汗臭的身躯回家 必经之地 有间佛堂                
每一天 放工了 都会 进去佛堂 礼佛后 再回家
但愿佛祖 保佑我身心健康  工作顺利 ......  _/l\_ 阿弥陀佛!

现在 无法天天上网  写写部落格 只能等到周末 写一点

不过有收获  工作了一个月  终于瘦了三公斤  开心得不得了

这也是我当初  为何选择这份工作的原因之一
为了"减肥" 不惜花钱去做  若靠自己运动 就是没那个恒心
总是给自己很多"借口"  一天推过一天
象式 "魔鬼般式"的工作来 减肥 还真不赖 不但能减肥 还有薪水拿!

当然 其中有利也有弊  虽然有获得减肥  却多了风湿病
每项都需要碰到水 抹地  清洁剂  消毒剂  洗手液  沐浴露等    
还未领取薪金 却先去看中医 吃中药 驱风 驱湿气等
去找按摩院所推拿 腰肌劳损 腰酸背痛  还去脚底按摩
老妈妈 和 大妹子 叫我别干了 虽然 疲惫 但我觉得还蛮开心地

每一天 看着天真无邪 的小朋友 就令人开心  一切的酸痛都忘了
有淘气的 有很坏的 有爱讲话的 有很文静的 有好漂亮  好可爱的
有爱哭的 有爱撒娇的 还有个非常俊俏的  却是全校最难搞的一个
来自不同家境的孩子们 供处一室  就像似个大家庭院

和那些较大的孩子们 都成了" 好朋友"
Helen安娣!  安娣Helen!  冲凉间 好不热闹
小女生最爱问东问西
男生最皮 边冲凉 边玩沐浴露 做弄同伴等.

 

閑談-- 我的新工作 -- 清洁工

My new job, A Cleaner!

真得无法想象! 我怎么会去找份清洁工作? 还是全职的!
这也许是有缘吧!   为甚么我一点都没抗拒或排斥呢?  还相当满意呢!
选着这份工作 主要是为了健康  希望能有规律性的工作 来鞭策自己

除了偶尔当当义工  在家无所事事  身子容易疲惫 也越来越胖了.
无法久坐的原故  不能找份朝九晚五 办公室的工作 或 工厂的工作
平时在家  只是打一篇稿子  就花了几个钟头或两三天才够完成
除非有份 站站 坐坐 活动 活动的工作  总比 " 坐以待毙 " 的好.


家里许久没买小报了  那天大妹回家来  顺道带来几份过期的小报
闲来无事 便翻了翻  阅读 已过了两天的小报  来到刊登广告版
看一看小报里有刊登些甚么工作   可否能找到一份 较适合自己的工做
住家位于东北部  除了饮食业或 门事业  家附近 兼职工作较为难找
退休后 除了到成药房当了几个月的兼职工   却严重地要住院两回
托儿所助理 或 托儿所清洁工都好  换个跑道看看自己能否识应.
.

报章里看到几则托儿所请 助理的广告 发现其中一家 就在家附近
却是要" 清洁工" ! 打电话 迅问看看 接听电话的那把清脆 又亲切声音
后来上班后才知是她是老板 而且来自中国  能在异乡开拓事业 还相当本事
开办托儿所  是非 一般的"生意"   真得佩服中国人的创业经神.

老板一见面 便说我看起来比实际年纪 年轻得多 她在电话里问过我年龄
之后大概地 说了我的工作任务  听上去是不难的工作  都象是一般家务
只是量多了些  偶尔厨房负责煮食的安娣拿病假或假期 我须负责煮一两顿
哦! 天呀!  真得难倒我了 我立刻告诉她 我无法胜任了
我也不隐瞒 我的一切  年过半百的我  除了电饭锅煮饭 煎蛋 煮快熟面
从未煮过一顿饭菜 给我的家人吃  并非想逃避一些不想工作的借口
也许 "急迫" 找到人手  老板 "勉强" 说  "不会煮不要紧 我们到时看着办....."
若那一天 来临  "我们" 该怎么办呢??  .............我真不敢想象.....    


就在同一天里  我们家小仓鼠过世了  面完试 回家的路上小妹 来电说道
小仓鼠走了!   归心似箭  刚刚面试的情节完全消失到无影无踪了.

直到隔天女老板 至电给我  过两天你先来试工 看看你适应吗?
其实我知道   女老板 "不看好" 我    她心想  我一定无法 胜任这种" 粗活"
不如让你试试看  肯定你受不了 她还有时间再找人  离月底还有十天..........

好累哦! 腰酸背痛!

MY new job, A Cleaner

I never ever come across my mind  One day I be a cleaner, A permanent staff !

I think I am fated to these Job?  Why I didn't rejected nor walk off but accepted it with joice!

Our home haven brought any of the local Newspaper for quite sometimes,

One day, My Sister came home and brought along a few back dated newspapers,

That particular Morning I was bored with nothing to do, I flick through the newspapers

Come to the Advertisement page,  I was wondering what kind of Job the local paper had.

I staying at North east area, whereby surrounding many retail premises or Food N Beverage outlets.

Retail jobs have to stand throughout the working hours and Office job may have to sit for hours 

after my retirement 3 years ago,  once got a part-time job at the Pharmacy, end up twice in Hospital.

After my operation and having Thrombosis  which then I can't stand too long in the fully air-con outlet
nor can I sitting too long hours in an office .
Once a while helping with charity work, but most of the time feel boring at home

I am  getting fatter and fatter, putting on weight and easily felt tire after walking a distant. 

When I saw the advertisement  of Childcare Center looking for teacher assistant, 

One of the Center just nearby my place but they looking for a Cleaner !

I never gave it a thought and straight I phone to the Childcare Center,  

not even realising whether can I really cope with the Job or did I really need the Job??

A lady with very gentle and sweet voice answer my call , first asking for my age and 

where I do stay?   And whether can I to go down for an interview that same day.

When she first saw me was very astonished :  " OH, You look very much younger than your age."

And She is my Boss, a Young lady in her 30's  and she is from China, 

She is really ability to start a business in a foreign country,  is not that simple nor easy to start off a 

Childcare center not even many of our locals can manage or wanted with such business line.

She roughly told me what of my duty lies,  sweeping, mopping, cleaning mattresses for the kids

and sometimes must do some cooking if the Cook is on sick leave.  OH ! That really got Me!

                             

I told her I Really do not know how to cook,  not that I do not want the cooking.

Though I am 50 plus, I never even cook a meal for my family before.

Maybe just plain rice from the Cooker and  instant noodles or fried eggs that what I can cook.

Maybe She was too desperate to get a Cleaner, so she said that we will discuss the matter
if  really the day exist,  that is not so important as she said with confident,
But what if it is really happen? then what shall we do ??

I was wondering ................................

On my way home after the Interview, I got a call from my sister,
Our precious Hamster has passed away!  Immediately I rushed home
My heart was sang and my mind was so whirl , athough all of us was
well prepared that Our hamster was leaving us very soon.

Our little hamster was in very bad condition  few days before it passed away. 

The interview matters was disappeared thoroughly and was totally forgotten
until the next day the Childcare Boss gave me A call ,
she wanted me to have a try with the help of the current cleaner 

to show me the routine job whereby I must follow after she left the center.

I know the Boss was no confident with me, to handle such a JOB as a Cleaner,
because I  told her my past and what I was before my retirement.

Thinking I might Quit after the try, and she still had times to look for another person

to take over  the current cleaner where she was still working till the end of the month. 

    

  

Pictures and Videos of my hamsters

Specially brought these white box " garden" to let it have more spaces to run about.

这白色"园地" 特地买 给小仓鼠让它 能多点空间活动.

Half of its body outside the wheel

Sleeping, resting it head on the wheel !

   

Last year we went for holiday , left him alone for 4 days,
sometimes he got difficulty climbing in and out of the cage ,
 to make the cage floor much higher and easy for him ,
my sister sew a special and cosy mattress for him.
SEE!  the way he slept, how comfortable!

去年我们去联邦游玩, 它独自在家四天

特地做个睡垫, 主要是为了垫高笼子地面

食物和水都摆笼子外 为了方便它能爬进爬出,

因太胖的关系  它要爬出笼子较为辛苦.

 看它睡得多舒服!

Fall from the wheel and still continue sleeping ,
I went to fetch the camera, he wake up.

The first time he was outside the Cage, trying to open the gate himself.

将它放在 刚买来的白盒子 它很不习惯 老想爬进去笼子里.

sleeping on its back.

746 Days / 柒百肆十陆天

Rest In Peace  My Precious.

Our precious Hamster left  peacefully  this morning,
It had being with us for 746 days since 1st. June 2012,
2 years and 16 days since it came to us  by its OWN.
These 746 days, its brought to us plenty of joys and memories.

Remember when it first came to our house, the little one was so thin
and dirty with patches of  fur gone,  its reddish skin can be seen clearly.
And about 2 months after we fed him, its become so chubby  and cute!
Hamster lifespan is about 2 to 3 years, we do not know how old it was.

Though its ready sad to see its Gone, especially to my elderly mother and sister
but we being prepared for the worst to come since last 2 months.

I got a very COSY coffin for it, and buried it under a tree below my flat.
May Our Precious Hamster get to the pure land with no more suffer and pain,
and will not to come back as an animal anymore in the next life.

为它播诵 阿弥陀佛及地藏经
愿它离苦得乐往生西方净土

AMITOUFO!   AMITOUFO!   AMITOUFO!      
阿弥陀佛!        阿弥陀佛!        阿弥陀佛!


我们的小倉鼠  今天早上 安祥地走了
和我们相处了 746 天 , 带给我们无限的欢乐和回亿.
记得2012 年六月一号 我把它抱进我们家那一刻起
它已经是我们家的宝贝 它刚来时 身子瘦小又脏兮兮
毛发脱落 见到红嫩嫩的皮肤 不过 养了两个月
白白 又 胖嘟嘟地 像一粒白色毛球 非常可爱.


倉鼠的寿命大概两三年  所以它有多大岁数我们不清楚,

两个月前开时 不大爱吃东西 身子开时瘦下来
我们早已有心里准备 知道 它快圆寿了
我为它准备了一副美观又很舒适的 "棺木"
但愿我们的小倉鼠  离苦得乐 往生西方净土
来生不堕落 畜生道 . 阿弥陀佛!

宝贝! 安息吧!

Little Hamster  *{{ Wretch/ 25-07-2012}}

Our little hamster came to my house 1st.June 2012.

The hamster hidden itself just outside my house under the shoe-rack of my neighbour's for nearly a week.

One night,  I came home alone, wanted to open the main gate and suddenly I saw a little white hamster,   very fast it disappear under  the shoe-rack.

 I didn't make a noise as my opposite neighbour's door was open then.

In the middle of the night, I slice a few pieces of the red carrots,

dip with the water and place it outside my house near our shoe-rack,

next morning all the carrots was gone. I know it still somewhere under

my neighbour's shoe-rack. These go on nearly a week.

June school holidays, my 2 little nieces came over to stay with us,

while they playing in the house, our main door open with the gate locked.

My neighbour's son and his girlfriend saw the hamster while going out.

She scream so loudly and the entire family came out to see what was happening?

My nieces shouted Hampster! Hamster!  Auntie It's A Hamster outside!

My neighbour's  teenage son, happily took the hamster with him

wanted to bring it to his house, but I can heard his parent shouting

" Throw it away! Don't you dare bring it in! Quick! throw it away."

Luckily, The teenage boy just left it on the stair way and goes home.

Sleeping 

Few minutes later, my nieces came to me: "Auntie!

the little Hamster is just outside our door!" They are so excited!

I quickly go take a look, the little hamster  trying to climbed up my

doorstep. I quietly open our gate and took it in with my bare hand.

I call my sis-in-law for a cage as they had hamster pets before.
And ask them how to keep a hamster as I never had experience before.
My brother told me that the hamster can't touch water nor to bathe it.

I went to gets some hamster's  food and  Sand for bathing.

But it seem do not like pet's food, so we fed him with cook rice,               

like to hide under the waste bag!

he love it and it can finish a tea-spoon full of the cook rice.

It seem do not like to eat carrot during the day time, maybe

it get used to eat the carrot after midnight, becos I been feeding him

nearly a week during the period it taking refuged outside my house.

Remember 2 months ago, when the little hamster came to my house,

it was skinny with reddish skin can be seen as most fur drop off.
Now, it is a chubby little fellow, when it craddle it body together,

it like a white fur ball, it looks really like the computer's game

Chuzzle Chuzzle white ball.

When the weather too hot,  I bathe the little hamster

with water and now he is used to water bath.

During the Night,  We turn on the bedroom air-condition

and bring the hamster in. I put a small towel for him as a blanket,

and he love it so much, every now and then he must has his blanket.



Guess!   what was he eating ?
It was fried beehoon! ( rice noodles) !
It's is his favourite.



sleeping on its back!



He loves  fried noodle!

My hamster (3) - Alone at home for four days!

Last Friday, We being to Malaysia for four days tour,
with my mother and 2 sisters.

Our pet hamster was alone for four days,


Its bangalow



 Once we thought of bringing him along.
But it was impossible to smuggle him going through
the immigration custom.
It may be suffocated to death if we were not careful,

Or it maybe caught by the custom officiers.

And that will be "Great News" on newspaper!
That was just kidding.

We been discussing what to prepare for him,
We left him with plenty of carrots and sunflower seeds,
Carrots is no more his favourite, he love celeries,
long beans, cabbages, wholemeal bread and pork floss.
Only carrots and sunflower seeds that can last for few days,
The others will turn bad or like the pork floss will invite ants.

Our fatty hamster,  he likes to climb in and out of his cage,
he can easily go in but is hard for him to climb out by it own,
so we planned to let our fatty hamster move about easily by it own.
My sis make a "comfortable bed" for him, the main purpose of it
was to make the " ground" higher  so that he can

going in and out easily when we are not around at home.

We also make him a pool of sand for the hamster to " bath" .

Once we reached home, the first things was look at our fatty hamster,
he messed up the whole place, the carrots and sunflower seeds was
scattered all the places, it urine stains and it's faeces was everywhere

except on its Bed!  It bed and towel was not stained with urine.

Very miraculous and how lovely he is,
he never never urined on his blanket
(towels) , its wheel nor his "Bed".


He was outside the cage and stood on one corner,
looking very lonesome and immediately he look up as my mom
call him softly " lao shu" we are home now. How are you?

He stare blurry for 30 seconds, like he can't believe what he see.

Our luggages left aside, my mom and sis clean up his "bangalow" first.
My mom pinch a bit of chicken meat we brought home he finished in second.
He went back to sleep soundly after the whole place was cleaned up.

He sleep soundly.

My Hamster (2)

Our Fatty Hamster   (( 29-06-2013))


JUNE was an Anniversary of Our Fat Hamster,
who came to our place last year by its own. 

Now he is Our family Precious member,
especially to my elderly mother, whom always
afraid the fatty hamster is hungry.
Whatever we ate, he eat too!

Dinner time, he is the First one to be served,          
My mom will scoop a tea-spoon of rice to him first.
Our wholemeal bread always has tiny holes with it,
my mom like to pinch a bit of the bread to fed it.

Fatty hamster  loves soya bean and milk,

my family do not take fresh milk ,      
the little fellow do not drink that much,
and if the milk kept for more than a day,
the little fellow will not look at it.
so we stop the fresh milk.

Normally, we fed it with vegetables like cabbages,
long beans, celeries, carrots, bean spouts
unpolished rice, cook rice.
Our snack time, from nuts, biscuits, cake,
even fry rice noodles, and fruits like oranges.

It loves sweet oranges.
We pinch abit of what we ate and give it to him.
He will hold the food with both hand tightly if he like it,
he smell and walk away if he do not like it.

Initially, I was hesitating want to bath him with water
or not, were he died after the water bath?
But the weather was hot and humid, and found the
sand bath was not that clean, still got the odd smell.
The first time water bath, It struggle and cling on the
towel don't let go of it. Now he no more scare of going
water bath,  he watch quietly as the water running
down the tap.

The first time outside the cage, he trying to bite open the gate.

If the weather is hot, it likes to sleep on its back
with it four tiny toes facing up.
I thought it was dead when the first time I saw him
sleeping still on its back.
he can sleep more than an hour or two if nobody disturb it.

It is too fat that he often fall off the wheel .
It is a cute little fellow, he never urined on the wheel
or his blanket (the towel) .
It will came down from the wheel or came out
from the blanket ( he likes to hide itself under the blanket)
if he wanted  to pee.

celeries, cabbages and carrots.

He was asleep while sitting on the sand .



After the water bath
