Enne,
EJ can walk liao. He has been very busy walking around the whole house every night for the past 2 nites. Just to share with u, i find that his walking progress can be quite 'sudden'. abt 2-3 weeks ago, he can walk at most 5-6 steps. and he was like that for quite a while.. then suddenly he can walk many steps. So i think it will be the same with Legolas. He will hesitate quite a while, then after that he will suddenly walk on his own. (i think la).
Astro,
i wanted to tell u this re your maid n mum. Just sharing my friend's experience. Her previous Phili maid was with her like 1yr plus.. until her mum just can't get along with the maid. in the end, my friend chose to let her maid go (cos things got so bad, that her mum refused to come to her hse unless the maid is gone). I dunno the true behaviour/characteristics of her maid but i do think she is a competent maid.. cos afterall, she was with my friend for quite a while and my friend found her ok.
If u can try to make peace between your mum n maid now, try to do it at every opportunity.. else things will escalate and u will have more 'saga' on your hands.. then u will really headache cos u can't 'kick out' your mum so in the end u may have to 'kick out' your maid. I am not saying it's easy to handle these 2 women but just to share this story with u.
