Hand brand

I've been using Philips Avent Isis manual breastpump to express breastmilk and later bottle-fed my 4mo son. Recently, a small little rubber accessory attached in the breastpump was teared off. It's still usable but a little fussy as i need to dissemble and assemble the pump if it is over-sucked.

While assembling, the small little rubber is dropped into the milk storage. Why not giving me more time as I was doing it halfway, I wasn't done yet! I screamed inside me. There is no way that i can get the rubber out from storage bottle. No choice, all I've is both my hands. During prenatal class, nurse did teach us on how to express breastmilk using hand. I think this is the best time to recall my memory and practice. Surprisingly, it's easier than i was thought. Not sure if it's hygience as hands might infect bacteria.

If anyone of you going to buy a manual breastpump. My advice is, use your hands. There are equivalent tired and time consuming but different in cost. Unless you're using electric breastpump. Trust me.

Balance

Things around me happened out of my control, one after another.

Been told that should have a balance work a.k.a. doing multiple tasks in one day, equivalent to 8 hours continuosly for at least 2 months. The expectation was not set right in the beginning. Fine, balance work. Yet additional tasks are not reflect in the workplan been assigned. And yet, others people doing additional task has a luxury of 40 hours allocated. I can manage balance work but i can't help in balance thought!

Been busying follow up with banker regarding housing loan which developer is not in the ADL all of the sudden.

Been told that the best BLR would be -1.9% effective tomorrow.

Been told that there will be no ZMC package offer by banker a.k.a. buyer has to bear banker's legal costs.

Being totally stress out can lead to tear drops. The thought of jump off flashes through to get rid of all this. However, it stays not more than 3 seconds.
