We survived 4 days of HBL, and today is also the start of PSLE. 💪
This time round, I never set up any schedule for the girls mainly because I wasn't very ready and since it's only 10 days 说长不长,说短不短. I have so much things not settle yet so I decided to let nature take its course. 🛶 船到桥头自然直。
Day time was pretty manageable, because the girls are busy with online work and homework. I prepare their snacks earlier which I shared on my IGS, or u can swipe left to see.
I started this in May which I shared on my blog (link in bio). Starting, they do not know how to control and finish the snacks before the "school" ends. Too bad no replenish. 😝
After awhile they get a hang of it and don't bother me about snacks, hungry etc.
They only keep calling me for IT stuff (no sound, no screen, change backgrounc) which is getting on my nerves especially when I'm trying to listen to my lecturer talking. 👹
It's not easy for us parents, it's also not easy for the kids.. although it seems like they are enjoying.. but occasionally they miss their friends, the social life they have and their emotions let out channel is greatly affected. Plus the uncertainty for those who are preparing for exam.
Sometimes not having a schedule, letting ourselves to relax awhile, it's good for our mental health.
Not sure how long this "one step forward, 2 steps back" restrictions will last.. 😅 it's good to rethink by changing our mindset so we can handle this pandemic better.
All the best to those who have kids doing PSLE! And may we all stay positive and love. 🥰

Labor shortage的問題最近常出現在新聞裡, 而labor cost也讓企業頭疼. 前幾天Morgan Stanley有出一篇報告, 主要是說Amazon(AMZN)因為人力支出, 獲利會受壓, 短期內股價可能因此會一直盤整下去:
物流人力成本沉重!大摩砍亞馬遜目標價
https://news.cnyes.com/news/id/4730852
而剛好前兩天的新聞有提到, 透過電商購物的消費者增加, 而其實電商會比傳統的零售業, 需要更多的人力在物流中心, 來做商品的包裝, 運送等:
"Demand for distribution workers has skyrocketed as more consumers shop online, in part because picking, packing and shipping e-commerce orders is more labor-intensive than traditional warehouse operations that distribute wholesale goods or replenish store inventory."

🌻如何逢低買進(buy the dip)?
每個人buy the dip的方法不同. 這邊簡單說一下我要buy the dip的話, 會注意哪些事情.
1. 個股所在的類股的表現
2. 均線
3. 大盤
4. 財報發表了沒
5. 股價還有沒有上行的空間(估值高低的問題)
🌻有趣的美股小知識: Why You Should Pay Attention to the Way Management Talks
Nomura(野村)的策略家發現, 當CEO在電話會議中, 用簡單易懂的方式來說明公司業務的話, 公司的股價會比使用複雜語言的CEO的公司股價還高.
Mezrich found that simple really does matter. Using the Gunning Fog index, he ranked companies in the Russell 1000 into tenths, based on their earnings conference calls. Over the past three years, the companies with the simplest language have returned 19.2% annualized, beating the equal-weighted Russell 1000’s 15.7%. Those with the most complex language returned just 13.4%. The complex language portfolio was also more volatile than the simple language portfolio.
“Since senior management delivers an earnings call, simple language may produce more confidence among investors in management’s ability to deliver on their vision,” Mezrich explains. “Hence, simpler language earnings calls can lead to subsequent stock outperformance.”

10/10 - Free islandwide delivery @wearetwiceyoung on 10/10!
Celebrating a smol milestone of 1000 pints and 2000 cookies 🥳
It’s been 9 months since the inception of Twice Young and it certainly hasn’t been an easy journey. There were lots to figure out along the way, and I’m still learning and improving. But I’m beyond grateful for the immense support that Twice Young has received - all the positive reviews and feedback that were sent our way, local businesses who have worked with us, loyal customers etc. And I’m extremely thankful for friends and family who have been spreading the word and sharing about my smol biz.
It really isn’t easy working out of my small apartment, and I really struggle with the space constraints(not being able to buy ingredients/goods in bulk, not enough space in my freezer etc) and there were times when I got really frustrated with the lack of space to even bake. I probably take 3-4 times the amount of time that others would take to churn out the same products. Eg : it took me 11 hours to bake and pack 330 cookies.
You probably hear this a lot - running a biz is like a rollercoaster ride and it’s not easy. Well, it’s true, but I wouldn’t have it any other way.
So to say thank you for keeping me going, on 10/10, Twice Young will be offering free islandwide delivery on all orders above $35
Place an order on www.wearetwiceyoung.com, key in 10/10 in “delivery date” box and transfer the stated amount without the shipping fee! Or simply place an order via DM. Orders have to be placed by 6th October 2359 (because I need to make the ice cream and cookie dough!!)
Drop me a DM if you have any questions okay! 🥳 Thank you for being part of my journey ❤️

大家中秋節快樂!
之前在Totoro IG有提到過Totoro生病了。
媽媽其實在今年過年的時候就剪了影片想記錄這件事,
沒想到一拖就拖到現在了。
這幾天終於增增減減上字幕做出了這個影片,當作個小紀錄吧!
Totoro生病的來龍去脈紀錄如下(文章超級長XD)
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Totoro在去年10月底確診了腎衰竭。
他在去年9月底的時候先是精神不好,體重下降,水喝異常多,沒多久右腳莫名的腫起來,但是完全沒有外傷。
因為腫起的右腳有戴腳環,醫生和我們一開始都懷疑是不是在哪邊勾到拉扯到造成的,先做了基礎糞檢後吃藥觀察。
之後雖然他精神好轉了,但腳還是一直沒有好,甚至開始長出一顆小白點。
最後在醫生建議下做了抽血檢查,並對小白點做細針採樣。
結果出來,他的尿酸指數飆高到正常值的五倍多,小白點檢驗結果是尿酸的結晶,確診為腎衰竭。醫生說,看過這麼多玄鳳都很難看到一隻有這麼誇張的尿酸指數。
原來他的右腳無外傷莫名腫起,是尿酸堆積造成的痛風。
我們不停的想,是什麼原因造成的呢?
和醫生討論後,原因可能是因為他一直無法斷奶,主食一直以來都是靠人工餵鳥奶粉。而一般鳥奶粉是幼鳥用,蛋白質含量較高,長期下來對腎臟造成負擔。
他為什麼無法斷奶呢?
這個也是快五年以來一直困擾著我們的問題。他小時候一個月大左右,曾經生病不吃飯,體重只剩下瀕危的50幾克。那時媽媽先咬牙學著用軟管少量多餐灌食維持營養,甚至半夜都要爬起來餵,慢慢的讓他胖到70多克,精神體力也好很多。
當他看似恢復健康有精神,我們想讓他自己開始學吃時,卻發現他的體重會無法維持。每當掉到66克左右像是病鳥的體重,我們就不敢再繼續嘗試下去,而把奶量加回來,他的體重也才回升。
找了愛吃鬼同伴吃的津津有味給他看也沒用﹙望向咕嘰快100g的胸肌…﹚,只要我們想嘗試減量,他就會漸漸消瘦。
曾經看過醫生,檢查便便嗉囊無異常,詢問了這個狀況開怎麼處理。醫生說就只能盡量找方法讓他自己吃,但體重掉太誇張的話也只能再補奶。
Totoro一直以來除了這個問題之外,就是個活潑亂跳皮到不行的小鬼頭,所以我們在他約兩三歲的時候漸漸放棄了嘗試,現在非常後悔於自己的無知和短視。以前總想著,等有時間要來想辦法讓他斷奶,就算要我一顆一顆餵他也行。結果等有時間的時候已經來不及了。
一開始知道這個消息真的很崩潰,就像聽到作為我避風港的家人得到絕症般,每天看著他自責懊悔著。甚至跟老天許願,只要他多活一年,我就願意減一年性命給他。那陣子幾乎沒法好好做自己的事,只想照顧他,陪著他,心情跟著他的病況時好時壞的起伏著。
腎臟病是不可逆的,所以只能給他做支持治療,打輸液、吃降尿酸和止痛藥。
飲食方面醫生建議既然他自己沒法吃飽,就把幼鳥奶粉換成一般滋養丸,選擇蛋白質含量不要太高的打成粉泡給他吃。
前兩三個月我們幾乎每天跑醫院讓醫生給他打皮下輸液,因為他的指數雖然有下降,但還是一直沒有回到正常值之內。
看著他每次打完針腳濕濕毛亂亂的,心情很差的樣子,就會跟著很難過,
那陣子上網查了許多鳥類腎臟病的照護,隨著抽血結果不停調整尋找著適合他的飲食。
記得是在過年前左右,Totoro的指數第一次降到正常範圍內。
雖然是在及格邊緣,但還是超級開心。而我後來也跟醫生學了打輸液的方法,才大大減少了跑醫院的次數。
到現在Totoro維持著定期血檢,指數還是在邊緣上上下下的。我們根據血檢照醫生建議調整著輸液次數,也微調著飲食。
腎臟病很麻煩,給他太多營養怕他代謝不掉,但不給營養又不行,我們只能在中間小心翼翼地尋找著平衡點。
他的尿酸指數降下來後,血檢結果變成營養不良,我們嘗試著微量增加餵食濃度後尿酸又貌似會跟著增高。於是現在就維持著較低濃度的滋養丸奶,持續著每天的輸液和吃藥來達到不完全平衡但可以接受的狀態。
一方面也盡量讓他自己吃穀物,這隻雞上輩子大概是太上皇,一定要有人陪在旁邊才會願意自己吃,鳥奴們只好定時盯著他陪他吃飯。
他的精神活力現在大部份都還是很好,還是很愛磨屁屁,心情好的時候喜歡跳舞唱歌學狗叫。看著他狀況穩定,雖然血檢結果仍上上下下著,心也漸漸寬了下來。
他也讓我們學到,與其每天懊悔過去,擔心未來,珍惜現在擁有的每一刻才是最重要的。
Totoro,再來要去哪裡玩呢?
Totoro was diagnosed with kidney failure in last October, and he has gout thus his right foot is swelling.
We were nearly devastated when hearing about the news, and tried to think why he’ll have such a disease. Maybe it’s because he’d never really successfully weaning and were fed with baby parrot hand feed formula since he was born (That was a long story, he couldn’t sustain his light-already weight and eat by himself if we stop hand feeding him).
We’re having regular subcutaneous fluids and medicines to support his kidney function for almost one year until now.
Although his urid acid level is still lingering between normal and abnormal value, he is having rather stable condition in recent months, dancing and singing when he has a good mood.
The video was shoot after Totoro’s diagnosis.
Totoro teaches us that, it is better to cherish the moment we have than regret over past decision or worry what might happen in the future.

Hello friends! Today we're going to share with you how to make juicy oven-baked smoked BBQ ribs at home.
Copying and practicing a recipe from a famous restaurant is the most challenging thing, but it is very interesting and we learn new things from it. In this video, we copied the taste of the famous pepper ribs, but made some modifications, because some ingredients are not found in this city. Chili’s slow-cooked pork ribs has been a top seller on the menu since 1986 and is still the best seller today. So this is a must try.
To make smoked flavor BBQ ribs without a smoker, we slow cook in the oven, and make the Chili's BBQ sauce with smokey chipotle in adobo, or it can be made by liquid smoke instead. The flavor is found in the sauce, and the cooking secret is slow-braising which can keep the meat juicy and tender like the original. You can use the barbecue sauce suggested in the recipe below or use your favorite homemade or store-bought sauce. Hope you like it. Enjoy. :)
