I need a breather.
The coughs and flu are totally under control now, though I’m still finishing my meds. After a 2-week run of being ill, I was hoping to get an easy work schedule to get back my strength, so I can compensate my absent from exercising.
Wishful thinking on my part.
Upcoming schedule:
Sunday the 17th.
• AM visit to the clinic (my one last transfusion).
• Afternoon airport pick-up for a Japanese supplier (the president of the company & his associate).
• Dinner to entertain them.Monday the 18th.
• AM pick up from hotel to office.
• All day meeting.
• Lunch and dinner to entertain them.Tuesday the 19th.
• AM pick up from hotel to airport.
• Office day (emails, documents, etc.)
• Afternoon visit to an exhibition area to check on the set up for upcoming event (1.5 hour drive from office)Wednesday the 20th.
• AM flight to Singapore for an all-day seminar by a Japanese supplier.
• Lunch and dinner with supplier (on their tap).
• Stay overnight (on my company’s tap and I’ll be snoring).Thursday the 21st.
• AM flight back to Jakarta.
• Afternoon meeting with another Japanese supplier (the director & his associates).
• Dinner to entertain them.Friday the 22nd.
• 2 factory visitations and a meeting (1.5 hour drive outside the city).
• Dinner with another Japanese supplier.Saturday the 23rd.
• All day industrial exhibition (1.5 hour drive outside the city and my company is a participant).
• Lunch with two Japanese suppliers.
• Attend a PM wedding (personal schedule).Sunday the 24th.
• Free day. FINALLY.I know many of you may have a rougher schedule than mine. But please let me vent this once. Let’s hope I won’t get sick again by the end of this upcoming week. Keep your fingers crossed for me, will you? Sigh…

Just to be on the safe side take your multiple vitamins come breakfast time.
Blood transfusion? Oh gee... I hope everything is ok. I have a busy schedule but there's very little traveling & client interaction. At least I can move things around a bit. Do take care Rudy - your health is more important than anything else.
Do take a break when you can. I agree with the vitamins and maybe more balanced meals when you can. I know you can do it!
The "transfusion" part got me jumping. I hope you will survive.
Nah, your schedule is much worse than mine!
Why a blood transfusion? That sounds serious - I really hope you're OK.
One day of your schedule is a lot more than I do in half a year - far out, I feel lazy!
Rudy, goodness gracious, I don't think I was this busy when I was working, and I was on call 24/7 because of my solo practice.
Transfusion? Blood? Plasma? Platelets? Wish you great health friend.
What a busy schedule. =/
so did you speak japanese ?
Not sure how you're managing with such a full schedule and an illness, but remember to place health first and not work yourself to the tipping point.
I recently loss a mentor who worked really hard and had a stroke in the office late at night. They didn't find him until the morning.
I'm glad you're healing.. But done die from all the things you need to do! Sounds super busy
@Fatcat723 - @catstemplar2 - i don't take supplements. maybe i should start doing that.
@ZSA_MD - @stepaside_loser - @ElusiveWords - no, no, no. not blood transfusion. it's one of those clear liquid filled with vitamins and possibly medicine. helps to clear the blood from viruses.
@beowulf222 - no worry. i can survive anything. i'm a tiger after all
@christao408 - really? with so much that you share on xanga, i figured you always have a full schedule and a long list of things to do and places to explore.
@oxyGENE_08 - you have no idea.
@vsan79 - eerr... arigato, ohaiyo, oishi, ichi ni san si go...
@paperblanks - yikes! that's scary.
@Devilzgaysianboi - nope, i won't die. not until i meet all of my xanga friends
@rudyhou - Yeah, but your busy schedule seems to be mostly work. Mine is a wide variety of things, few of which are work-related.
@christao408 - speaking of which, have you meet up with nick yet? i'm awaiting for your post on that. or are you still way behind on your hawaii posts?
@rudyhou - Nick and I see each other a couple of times a year, to the extent that I don't write about it anymore!
@christao408 - oh, i see. fair enough. i'm sure nick doesn't like pics taken either
