Life has been normal and busy lately that I’ve forgotten all about the typhoons (tai feng).
Until of course about 4.00 pm just now when the sky suddenly darkened and I had to turn on the hall lights. I was in the middle of research for my next article…
Instead, I quickly un-hooked all our clothes blowing to a 45 degrees angle (almost like the man’s hair below)

Looking through my old posts, I found one dated July 2008 where I recorded the 4.4 earthquake we felt then. Hmm…typhoon Bilis was scheduled for August then. Guess this year, the typhoons decide to make an early start?
We’re expecting heavy rains from Sunday night till Monday. Several events are happening this weekend:
- A few friends are flying back home
- A visitor is coming over for some ‘fun’ and ‘adventure’. I think he’s gonna get what he asked for!
I wonder if the rains will be so heavy Hubby won’t be able to go to work? That’ll be fun
Whatever happens, I hope that the typhoon or thunderstorm will just pass everyone without causing too much damage. I already hear sirens blaring on the street below…

Take care dear. Nothing quite like being snuggled at home - all safe & sound - when the rain is pounding outside
Paik Ling - Thanks, dear! I’m glad it passed over us without much ado unlike other cities which are now flooded, the poor things.
