Christmas is just 2 weeks away. Me, Margaret and Fyn brought my mother-in-law to OG Dept. Store (Chinatown) to shop as they are giving a 20% discount storewide. She picked a conventional, matured lady grey blouse with a little pink and white stripes on it. Me and Fyn were of the same opinion that she would look older than her age should she put on it. Fyn proposed clothings similar to Island Shop. Finally, she gave it up when she found a few causal smart looking 'Potato' blouses. She tried at the Changing Room and looked fashionable and much younger. Though in her early 70s, she said red is not appropriate for her age. She chose 2, one purple and the other green. We took a train home after dinner. When it stopped at Orchard Station, a matured lady who looked much older than her boarded the train. She was wearing a bright red blouse. My mum-in-law was at a loss of word. Guess that was an eye-opener and liberated her mind.
Understand that my father-in-law is suffering from gastric ulcer. For the past few days, he has been popping in pills. Margaret and I bought a bottle of Manuka Honey UMF+10 for him to try. Hopefully, it works and relieve the pain.
As for my mum, we bought her a Braun Buffel leather wallet. Hope she like it. Recently, she has been down. Her Indonesian maid told her that she prefers to look after children. Mum decided to let her leave. Luckily, she managed to get a new Burmese maid to replace her on the same day. Life goes on.....
