Busy taking of my 2 "babies" in the family.  My hubby got sick since Oct. 1 (National Holidays in China), so stayed at home for the whole week.  He has common flu only.  Then Amelie's turn, she has "Ashma Bronchitis" for a few days; then back to my hubby again, cos he's so busy travelling around, no time to really take a rest, and after drinking some beer with clients......sick again.   In mid-Oct, Amelie has tummy problem, so we rushed her to local hospital and the doctor said she has "Appendicitis", and may need operation if treated in their hospital (extra note: lots of Japanese in SZ go to this hospital, cos the doctors speak Japanese, that's why I think it's O.K. to trust the doctor there).  Anyway, I said NO NO NO, I don't want operation in here, so I rushed Amelie to Hong Kong's hospital, she stayed for 2 nights,  and then she just recovered, no medicine given , only saline injection, the H.K. doctor said she has common abdominal problem only.  I can't believe what can happen to her if I left her in China's hospital and have treatment/ operation there.  She just left HK's hospital after 2 nights happier and very healthy, and the doctor asked me no need to bring her back for further treatment/ and no medicine is needed.  I was soooooooooo angry, cos I didn't sleep for 2 nights staying with Amelie in the hospital, and she felt so uncomfortable going all the blood test, x-ray.............................. I can no longer trust the doctors in China!

And now, my hubby is sick again, bronchitis problem again...............so tired to take care of patients.  After I became Mom, I really think I have no time, and energy to get sick myself......poor Mom.......so we must be good to our Mom as well.

Didn't write for long time......why?  Well.........

(1) Facebook is banned in China (same as Youtube), so I'm just too depressed to turn on my computer again....

(2) Amelie is going to Kindergarten now, very different from pre-K, busy, lots of school activities, can't be late in the morning.......

(3) Met some new friends, from other countries, so busy "chating" all the time, my hubby asked me "I think your "tongue" is getting longer and longer...."

(4) Since it's so boring in SZ, I always go out with other moms to have manicure, foot massage, shopping....

(5) Visit my Grandma everytime I go to HK, so really no extra time for my old friends in HK.  She's almost 90 years old now.  Sometimes I really feel sorry for her, no son around, only an Indinesian maid at home staying with her.......life!

(6) Some family matters disturb my hubby and I.  What can you do?  They're family, you can just accept.......

So I'm going back to Taipei again in this weekend with Amelie.......

Here are some pics from Taipei last time in Summer holidays:

Hi, I'm back from Taiwan!

Lucky, I rent out my apartment to a family.  Their children study in an international school near my Taipei home, so I think it's good to rent to them, cos they have no problem paying the rent.  My friend who rented my apartment before, was so good, the home is exactly the same when I left her my home key.  So it's clean and tidy, and I feel happy about that.  My new tenent said they'll only stay in weekdays, and they'll go back to their home far in the other side of Taiepi city during weekend. And the kids are very big, one high school, and one elementary school.  Hope this family can take good care of my home this time.

Busy, once I got back here, Amelie starts her Ballet class, and Violin classes again, and she's busy meeting her friends who stay in China for the summer.  But I'm busy with her, calling mommy all the time, I hope her school starts earlier

Problem uploading pics here last time, will try again after I re-organize the pics from Taiwan.  BTW, I can't believe facebook is banned in China too.  Youtube, facebook, HK news, Taiwan news...........all banned .........WHY????????????????????

Just finished reading "The Tales of Beedle the Bard" by J.K. Rowling tonight before I go back to Taipei tomorrow.  Short, interesting, and full of fantasy, esp. good for "Muggles" readers ike me.  I love the last tale "The Tale of the Three Brothers" which mentioned about the Invisibility Cloak that Harry Potter owned, and I love the moral of this story.  Don't ask me about moral, but check this out yourself.
