It was dreams of weddings, terrorism and what not last night grrrrrrrrrrr…. I think I saw glimpses of what was happening around the world when I was channel surfing and every time I open my email there is that list of yahoo news thingy oh well I guess you cant run from what is there and is happening all the time. The dreams of weddings is understandable seeing the amount of weddings that are coming up and the past two I have attended in a week. Talk of weddings are everywhere and I think the dreams came cause I was talking to mom yesterday about the fondant recipe for the wedding cake .. .. Got to love fondant icing – the smooth texture makes the cake look extra gorgeous and elegant and since the wedding cake this weekend is all about roses & little silber stars the surface of the cake has to be smooth .. anyways ..

Spoke to mom this morning. My little cousin wanted the capsicum herbal plaster for his back poor baby. His heart condition has caused many parts of his body to hurt like his shoulder his back so the herbal patch actually works for him. His condition is really hard to say – it goes up and down so right now he is on meds to alleviate the pain pretty much. His dad just got him a wheelchair so he doesn’t have to walk around the so much seeing that too much walking worsens his condition. Anyways tomorrow that little baby will get his patches .. When someone is struck is with an illness it amazes me how family rallies together and put their differences aside and I think what one can really hope for from this is renewed bonds but we will see sometimes ego gets in the way of things but that’s another story …

Speaking of cousins today’s my cousin Fee’s 30^th Birthday! I messaged him and told him welcome to the world of the 30 something’s its downhill from here on hahahah @ me but then again turning 30 is the start of an amazing journey into your prime .

I woke up with a very painful left shoulder sniffles . it just hurts and the pain went on all the way through to the other shoulder grrrrrrrr.. I rubbed some balm on it hoping it will get better. What I really need is a good back massage – I think the pain in my knee is causing everywhere else to hurt. My cousins who are in their late 20’s and early 30’s are already starting to complain about joint pain – I think this is the time when our bodies start giving way ;)) .. only way to counter attack that is with calcium and exercise – heck I want to be sturdy even when im 50 ;)) .. anyways

Today mei lan is 9 months old ;)) and to end this blog entry here is a panda update ….

Tuesday, June 5
Every morning we start our day by slowly turning on the lights, checking on the pandas, and then preparing their first “meal” of the day. We weigh out leaf eater biscuits and fruit and place it in separate bowls: one for Yang Yang and one for Lun Lun. We use this bowl of favorite panda treats to get the pandas on the scale to obtain their weight. Now that Mei Lan is old enough to eat biscuits and small amounts of fruit, we’ve started placing some treats in Lun Lun’s bowl to get Mei Lan’s weight. We then have to shift Mei Lan and Lun Lun around to get the bowl back from them so we can use it to weigh Lun Lun. However, this was becoming more of a hassle, since on some mornings the bowl would become Mei Lan’s new favorite toy. As of today, the problem has been solved- for Mei Lan got her very own bowl.
