sanbebe, hope u are feeling better. must be tough on u, taking care Jav at the same time. And please don't blame yourself, you're already doing the best job u can dear *huggs*
petit_gars, sorry didn't come in to read the posts earlier, if not i would have recommended the cream which our GP prescribed for Matt's painful nappy rash. he also gave potassium permanganate solution (but must dilute 1:10 with water) to wash his bum. it was super effective, rash totally cleared within 1-2 days. but im glad Marcus is better now!
Re: burning essential oils in aircon rm i also heard it's not recommended. perhaps putting 1-2 drops of lavendar essential oil in a spray bottle of water and spraying the room is a better way? my doula did that in Mt A to relax me when I was labouring. I guess if it's safe for unborn baby, it should be safe for older ones too.
totoro that email made me tear. feel ashamed cos there were a few times i was harsh towards mea/matty and even my hb. it's true, we must treasure our family.
as for Kelly, sign language is still meaningful conversation just a different form. i tink as long as she is able to communicate and attach meanings to words/signs she will be fine, and im sure she will speak when she feels like it. but please don't ignore her...
Jovialz, sorry to hear u were unwell, glad u feel better now...do rest more yah...
yesterday was a good and bad day. i managed to make a lunch bento for hb and his colleague and he liked it so much he's requesting for more
It was made up of onigiri stuffed with ebiko, cabbage and asparagus rolled in proscuitto ham, panfried salted chicken with 2 wedges of lemon and cherry tomatoes
But the bad thing was his CHILDISH colleagues played with our car's windscreen wipers (took off the rubber leave the metal parts exposed) and cracked our windscreen. it was too serious to patch, have to send all the way to Alexandra workshop to change the whole windscreen. I was damn mad cos we just bought the car and how can his colleagues be so disrespectful of ppl's property!!!!! these are 30-something year olds and this kind of behaviour i would expect from my students but ADULTS???
