sleepy bb slept after pool and woke up to just a little bit of solids.
brought him to my second bro's place after bb woke from his nap.
mr ali doesnt want to sleep all the way.
kept rubbing eyes and back of head but just didnt wanna sleep.
oh ya. fed him nan 2 at 10.30am, forgotten to mention.
woke up crying madly fiercely at 12ish and 3ish in the motn.
closing his eyes.
and farting according to him.
not sure is it nightmare or wind in his tummy or new fm or too much excitement playing with er jiu.
gonna need to monitor abit if its fm.
and the little red rash at his chin.
need to monitor that.

finally understand what it meant to be happy tired.
cannot sleep even when i could, knowing that he is uneasy/uncomfy/frightened.

Wednesday 11 March 2020 - Day 1

perhaps amidst all these COVID-19 going on, we should practise some individual social responsibility.

the last time SARS happened, i was p6. there wasnt any knowledge on how to deal with this at that time. we only took our temperature. but we got through it.

i hope this time we can go through it too. and this time, i think we should journal down our daily footsteps so that contact tracing would be easier, if the need arises.

***side note***

BESTIE POPPED YESTERDAY!
bb Elliot has so much hair, nice nose and mouth. and everything ^^
cant wait to visit him when bestie's back at home

***

as usual, i took the company transport at 7.33am opp the condo.
the same usual people got up the bus. but noticeably, with more people putting on their mask.
it must be the news that one of our bus mate was related to safra case 117 and exercise group case 122.
i guess the virus is keeping up with all of us.
i wonder when will it be our turn, or do we already have it inside us all along but our body are stronger than it is? who knows.

got off at the usual dropoff.
nothing much practically happened, just going to the pantry and up to get LJS porridge as breakfast.
wanted to grab starbucks but thought i would just drink my roasted rice tea in office.

lunch was a little late but we went out with DAP, along with 2 colleagues.
if contact tracing was to commence, we'll be prolly in trouble.
went to hawker at jurong west, had fish soup.
daringly $6.50, but couldnt resist their belachan. what to do.

back in office at about 1 going 2pm.
worked till 5.30pm.
took the same bus transport home.
grab my son while he drove us back.

went out to eat zichar with his friends at hokkien hui guan.
back at home about 9pm.
put lil asher to bed after last feed.

i miss him already ):

end of day 1.

temp: 37.1/37.5
