Me Time!

[Liew Nga Wing]

What about the invasion of Iraq and Afghanistan by the US? Any Third World War happened?


Before the pandemic, I used to join some meetup events on international politics discussion but we stopped this type of gathering after Covid 19.

I am not going to further discuss any politics here because it is usually controversial and sometimes people will argue for their different political views. I believe here is mainly for the parent and kids topics.

For many years until today, Vladimir Putin is a great leader and true hero in my mind.

Also, S’times the guys don’t drink much fluid. Indeed maybe cough & throat dry so too much abrasion.

Yes, teenagers / children cough too hard sometimes! So they bleed easily and it may seem like a lot w all the saliva.. but it’s not serious unless it’s from the lungs. Hope he gets well soon and do drink more water, load up on vitamins!

It’s normal to hv yellow leaves esp bottom ones as it ages.

Tomato plants not easy - they don’t like wet feet but want constant drink, but cannot leave it thirsty.

Try easy plants like okra, bittergourd, long bean, or cucumber plants. You won’t regret. I’ve just trimmed my Rosemary & Lavendars. Hope tmr they’ll grow more if there’s sunshine. 🙏🏻
