morning everyone! it has been a really busy and tense period at work. last night i nearly wanted to scream at Mr C when he complained abt dinner. was so tired out when calls ended at midnight on Tue that i wrote incoherent cooking instructions for maid, so dinner was .. frankly... it was inedible.
anyway i think i would be quite tofu hearted if the tears were silent. fortunately or unfortunately for C1, his tears are normally noisy, which grates on my already tender nerves even more... so the tofu heart quickly hardens into fried taukwa heart *grin* and C1 def would NOT get what he wants.
come to think of it... i can barely rem a time when he has cried silently.
i try not to go into toy stores too much. why tempt them? tis really like PB says, too cruel to let me into a shoe or handbag shop and say can only look, cannot buy. haaaiiiiiyooor.
a truly scary thing happened to my UK boss' adopted 3yo son over Mon/Tue. the child had a viral infection which made his knee and hip joints swell causing a lot of pain and he suddnely couldnt move his legs. turns out due to a perforated ear drum
once they diagnosed that at the hosp, they were able to give him some strong painkillers. had to stay overnight in hosp. luckily doctors say no long term effects on joints once the antibiotics clear the infection he is on the mend now
.... it was a very tense Tue night for my boss.
hearing this story ah, i give thanks everyday that C1 and C2 have rude good health and have never been in hosp since their birth. may they stay out of hospitals till i m no longer around!!! that is the wish of this mummy.
LOL at youpi's comment. so true. i get really cranky myself when i m sleepless or otherwise too many things to think about or do. i rem you said before we can always sleep when we are dead.... but now... smtimes i truly wish for just one 24h block where i do not have to think! abt anything at all!
