OH! NO MY MUM'S ILL

 My mother became ill after breathing in the smoke from the fogging machine to rid the housing area of mosquitoes.  My guess is that someone in the area was diagnosed with denggue fever and so the people from the health department carried out the fogging exercise.
The whole of Saturday she had difficulty breathing and was lethargic and weak.  To make matters worse her gastric problem was also causing her a lot of discomfort.
When Aunt Linda and I reached my home in Ipoh on Saturday morning, my mum had already put on a nose strip to help her breathing.  When we went out for breakfast, she did not eat anything but just drank an almond drink.
What you see me wearing above is the unfinished Baju Kurung that my mum was making for me to wear on Teacher's Day. My school is celebrating it in the morning. Since she is so sick she could not complete it.
All the teachers in my school are wearing the same fabric and pattern.  That means, I will be the odd one out.  What to do? 
I went out and bought me a new dress to wear for Teacher's Day but then it would not be the same pattern.  My mum jokingly said that she would finish sewing the baju kurung next week and I could wear it  for next year's Teacher's Day.  Ha Ha Ha.  Very Funny.
