Cookie - My little baby girl

I was SHOCK when Janet reminded me that Cookie should be 5 yrs old this year.
Came back and checked my record.....Oh dear, that's right! I bought her in 2004!!!!

I keep thinking she is still my little baby girl..., the most ard 3 yrs plus.
Well, in the eyes of a mother, a baby is always a baby....

So now Phebe is 10 and Cookie is 5............want to make a guess what I am thinking now...????

Peace of mind......

PEACE OF MIND
If you were to ask your neighbor, 'What would give you peace of mind?' He/She might tell you, 'A vacation in Bermuda!' or 'An extra $$$ would give me peace!', or 'A new Ferrari would make me content!'

But going places – and getting stuff – is usually a temporary solution ...

Peace of mind rarely comes from getting more stuff.
Getting more stuff usually leads to wanting even more stuff!
Peace of mind starts with being grateful for what we have right now.

GRATITUDE is POWER
When we are thankful for what we have - for the friends we have, and for the things we've got, we attract more good people and good things!
People who always complain about what they DON'T HAVE, stay stuck. Complainers attract more things to complain about!
It is a law of life. It's hard to explain, but you can observe it around you. We get more of what we dwell upon.

That's why all the spiritual masters have taught the same lesson ..
'Start by being thankful. Be happy with what you have now, and more will come your way.'

It's practical advice.
Every time you say a silent 'thank you' you become more peaceful – and more power. ...

My Fear.....

Phebe vomited again today!!
It happened yesterday morning and today one seems worse. I also found a little blood stain in her poo.

Try to get some information from internet. found the term "colitis" means inflammation of the colon (lower bowel). Colitis is a complicated condition and there are many possible causes. The condition is associated with soft stools or diarrhoea and is extremely commonly seen in small animal practice. As the problem progresses there are often further signs such as mucus (a slimy, jelly like substance) or blood in the stools. In the most severe cases of colitis there may be a reddish brown diarrhoea, vomiting and in the worst cases, dehydration leading to collapse.

My heart keep sinking as I read but think she is not the severe kind coz she still quite "active".
Anywhere, I need to watch her closely and feed her only plain fish + vege and lots of water. Hope she recover soon......

Please pray for Phebe.... Thanks!

New Puppy???

I was at Pet Safari this afternoon while waiting to pick up Iggy from school.
Saw so many puppies and one of them reminded me of FAT.
I was there watching that Shih Tze and all the good old memories of FAT keep coming back.....

So tempted to buy but it's a him.
Anyway I think Jimmy will "Kill" me if I bought it home but my nieces will be very HAPPY!

My Chinese Astrology Forcast and Outlook for 2009

Dunno when i am also into this but think that is becoz the current economy siutation really make me feel insecure.

Generally the overview is - this is a moderate year for me amd I have to pay close attention to my health and to be alert for any potential health troubles.

I went for my follow up checkup in Jan with Dr Fong Yan Kit, who is an Urologist. Report is good.
My next follow up breast memo checkup is today. Memmograns result is normal but Ultra Sound shows 2 nodule on right breast which was not shown in my last checkup in year 2008.
Although the report said these have benign features and no clinically significant lesion is seen in either breast but my doctor would like to put me under "observation", and to come back again for another altra sound test in 3 mths time.

I went thru my memmo and Ultra report since 2001, there was one cyst found on my right breast then but nothing shown on 2004 report. It shown up agian in my 2007 report but not 2008 and then agian in 2009. Strange!!!!

So, do you think the forcast is quite true or me being suspicious? Sometime is good not to read too much of these Astrology, not very healthly I think.....

Whatever it is, let's wait and see what's the next report will say.

Meanwhile I am just going to be happy and spent tgreat times with my family, especially my cheeky little boy.

Shin Na

"Time and the business of everyday living can make us forget a lot of important things – we let the mundane tasks of daily life get in the way of even thinking about the people we love, especially those who are gone or live far away, but sadly, even those who live in the same house with us."

“It not the years in your life, but the life in your years”

The above was extracted from Shin's blog.
I need this to remind myself how fortunate I am to have my family and friends around me.
I must learn to appreciate life and STOP complaining!!!

I think all of us are very lucky compare to many others. Think agian - your family and Financial crisis, which is more important to you?
For me, my family come 1st. I am still the richest people in the world so long my family is with me and we are all healthy. The crisis will only make me have lesser $$ in my bank.

What is your choice?
