Yes .. without my glasses, i am partially handicapped. I remember how i would fret ..when i travel .. and had to make sure that i had back up pairs of glasses with me. And also looked a wee bit silly having to swim with my glasses.. when i was younger.. and didn’t know about prescription goggles. For people like me Lasik may be the alternative of expensive glasses and lenses .. and those goggles. I hear that the success rate for Lasik is like 99.9% and very safe.
Eating With Movies
We have a very bad habit .. when we take our meals. At the store, we eat in front of the computer.. and as soon as there is no customers. But at home.. we never eat in the kitchen.. because we don’t have a tv there. I had contemplated on putting a tv wall mount in the kitchen.. so that we can finally eat in the kitchen.. instead of the tv room. Afteall, the dining room is going to waste.. coz’ we only at there once.
While Other Kids Run Wild & Screaming
While other kids run wild and screaming or some even crying and thumping the floors for candies not bought for them., and calling their parents name, the brat went to find a book .. and was looking at it.. and reading it. She never asked for presents.. or to buy anything .. unless she was told that we were going out to buy her something.
She wouldn’t destroy the book either.. and she would just flip it thru’ and sometimes asked you to read to her. She would asked if she can buy it .. and when you tell her.. it doesn’t have a red tag.. she wouldn’t fuss at all.
At the end of the trip.. she would put the story book back where she found it. .and leave with us.. no fuss.. nothing. Absolutely nothing at all. We sure lucked in on this behavior.
Goofy Gal Ain’t That Goofy
For those of you .. who’ve noticed and liked the new theme of my blog.. which i never thought anyone can help.. because this is blogsome, I have one person to thank. .and that is Heather from Goofy Girl Design. Actually, I saw Goofy Girl’s work on other blogs .. and I went ahead and contacted her.
Donch you think she did a great job..?? and not only that.. it wasn’t expensive either.. and she was very accommodating… and did alot of extra work for me. A week after contacting Goofy Girl.. everything was done.. she uploaded the theme for me.. and worked with me.. for another few days.. to make sure i was ok. .with the colors and fonts.. etc. Unlike Blogspot… Blogsome needed her to do stuff manually and from scratch.. and she didn’t asked for extras for those things done. What an awesome person!!!
Heather .. is not your ordinary Goofy Girl.. ! she is a future doctor. And she is absolutely nice..! and humble..! So if you liked what you see.. and want her to revamp your blog.. contact her directly. I know she is accepting jobs for the month of May..!
An Infection
Just a quick update on Chloe, she did her pee pee in the bottle this morning without much fuss. In fact, I was taken by surprised .. because she was fussing about it .. last nite.. and said.. she didn’t want to do it. So i guess explaining and giving her time to absorb .. what was to be done .. is better than forcing her to do it immediately.
We sent her pee pee to the lab this morning.. and an hour later.. the doctor’s office called.. and yes.. she does have an infection. An anti-biotic is being prescribed.. in liquid form.. and she took it .. with very little fuss. She didn’t want to drink the cranberry juice though.
A culture is being ordered by the doctor.. and we will go from there. She seems to be pee less already since this morning even before the medication, and her redness around her peepee area.. is not so red already.
Update On Doctor’s Visit
We went to the Dr Zia’s office today .. to see about Chloe’s peeing problem. He didn’t say much .. but suspect that she might have a mild UTI. A urine test is being ordered .. so now .. we have to get the brat pee in the bottle and send them out to the lab.
For some unknown reason.. she doesn’t wanna pee into the bottle… even though we explained to her.. how to do it .. and that it didn’t hurt or anything. But overall, she was really good at the doctor’s office.. and didn’t fussed much.. except when the doctor wanted to check her temperature.. and feel her tummy. So mummies out there.. pray tell.. how to get the brat to pee in the bottle… HEELLPPP..!!!
Look Who Came To Visit
I was pleasantly surprised when we went to visit my in-laws.. and saw Uncle Budd from Halifax and Aunt Gert visiting. It’s always nice to have company .. and Uncle Budd and Aunt Sandra would play some music and entertain all of us. Unfortunately, Uncle Budd never remember to inform me.. when he is coming down to Y-Town.. else he can bring me some Chinese food. We do talk about it .. every now and then. . i am guessing he forgets.
Don’t Let The Bed Bugs Bite
We’ve all heard of the famous.. good night phrase we use with our kids and other people’s kids .. “don’t let the bed bugs bite”. It is meant to be a fun way of saying good night, but you and I know that bed bug bites are no fun at all. No, it is not deadly .. but because each bug can lay up to 5 eggs a day, your house and will be covered with bugs if you don’t do anything about it. And I bet you don’t want to see all those bites on your kid’s body. Learn all about bed bugs if you suspect you might have some at home.
My Father-In-Law, My Hero
Everyone knows that i have a pretty good relationship with my in-laws. They indulge me.. and let me do whatever I want. Had i married a chinese family .. my in-laws wouldn’t have allowed me to say .. “yo-yo” as a greeting to them. But my FIL is my true hero.. for those who donch know.. this blog’s name derived from the fact that my FIL grew Baby BoK Choi for me.. in his green house.. because I missed home so much. Yesterday.. i had my first baby bok choi for this year… all organic.. and all leafy and juicy. How can you not love this man.. right..??
Sleeping With The Neighbor
As I walked out to the kitchen at 4am in the morning.. to turn off the lights .. and go to bed.. i cannot helped but missed that sleeping bond with the neighbour’s man. Now.. now..! i ain’t sleeping with the neighbor .. of course..!! but you see .. he used to own a pizzeria not too, too long ago.. and comes home at about 4am or so .. but not anymore.. sad.. but that’s another story to tell.
So each time.. i see his car turn into his driveway.. i know it’s time to go to bed too. Not always true.. for the brat does wake up.. but still .. it was my special bond with the neighbor. Weird.. kinda..! I guess .. i’m a wee bit sentimental. Sad .. coz’ he no longer will be coming home at that hour no more.. we donch have a special bond .. no more. Boo hoo hoo..!! have you felt a special bond with your neighbor..??
