:: what to do? ::

now that my mum's back at home... and has nothing to do... she's generating a lot of noise... in the forms of
a) gossip marathon on the phone with my thousand and one relatives who've all come to give advice on how to take care of herself while recuperating... the most absurd of which was:
"you must not touch water, you must not bathe, taking out yr womb is like giving birth... must go under confinement..."
b) hovering around my room imparting me all the gossip she's accumulated throughout the day (while i was in the hosp)
c) attempting to do housework (while we hover around her to take away the broom/mop/clothes/pot... wateva)
d) lying on the bed/sofa (now that we've confined her there) and giving out random instructions... eg
'oy, xxxqi, when u wash the non-stick pan dun use the silver sponge, use the yellow one...'
'oy, xxxqi, i heard today is the all-black day? the clothes will still qi3mao2, then u need to use that brush to brush all the mao2 off...'
'eh, you all remember to throw the rubbish away, i think i can smell something...'
'use the steam iron la... looks easier to use leh'
'someone needs to stock up food... '

so i've come up with some ways to keep her otherwise occupied:
a) rent some vcds, hope she gets hooked onto them...
b) make her get addicted to harry potter... got 6 books for her to read
c) drug her (hia hia hia... swap the panadol with midazolam... evil evil...)
d) keep her high on caffeine
e) get her hooked to online chatting, maybe at #auntie (hehehe) or #post-hysterectomy discussion group
f) get my father to send her to my auntie's house in the morning, and collect her back at night (so she'll spend her whole day there gossiping) aka send to daycare ;)
g) any suggestions???

g) TOTALLY mess up the house. She'll spend the day cleaning up.
h) Get her to sit on a sofa, put 1 signboard on each side of the sofa. On the right, it reads "Look Left". On the left, it reads "Look Right". Tell her she must follow instructions to recuperate fully.
i) Days of Our Lives. Several tens of thousands of non-ending episodes for her delight.
j) Yoga tapes.
k) Tai ji tapes.
l) Get her to blog?

heh good one... but 2 things...
1) cannot mess up the house, i'm the one incharge of almost all the household chores now... (as mentioned: so 'housewifey'...

2) maybe she'll like Will & Grace better? ;)
