With the terribly hot weather, it was a torture for Joel to sit in the baby carrier for so many hours every day (and me carrying a 9kg load). Joel has heat rash on his neck, face, arms, chest and tummy - with the worse around his neck. I also have slight heat rash around my neck. Joel has been "play-coughing" for about a week now, and today it sounds like a real cough with phlegm and runny nose. He's irritable and fusses a lot in the day. He even wakes up and cries in his sleep (he cries very hard and with LOTS of tears!!!). It could be the discomfort from the rashes. So, i think i'm going to bring him to see the doctor tomorrow.
(UPDATED: Doc prescribed calamine solution for Joel's rashes and salt solution/bulb-pump to clear his nose. No medication for his cough coz she said his lungs are clear.)
As for Clara, this week passed quickly and she left with more than the "entire working wardrobe" she had anticipated! Probably about 80 pieces of clothing (90% work wear, including tailored-made suits, cuffed/non-cuffed blouses and shirt-dresses), a couple of bags and 15 pairs of heels/wedges/slippers! That's enough to wear for a few months w/o repeating! Haha! Now she's having a headache how to store all these back home! But it's a "good thing" when you think of the savings vs buying these in Hong Kong or even Japan (the Japanese exports tagged in Yen which could be 10x RMB)! She also did hair rebonding here...but unfortunately, it didnt turn out too well coz they used a new brand of solution that might be too strong for her hair.
Clara came with an almost empty suitcase and left with 33kg of Shop-Till-You-Drop Shanghai loot...and she said she'll be back in winter for more SHOPPING! Keke! ;p
(Janis is still unbeatable at 35kg in Dec 2006)
