I love Ma ma! The weather has been bad over the entire week and even though Ma ma was sick and stayed at home for a couple for days, she didn't (and couldn't) take me out for any walkies. This morning, Ma ma woke up at 7am, looked out the window with me and we both went back to bed. It was raining heavily outside! At 9am, Ma ma woke up again and to our delight and surprise, the rain has stopped. There was even a streak of sunshine in the sky! Ma ma got up and hurried us outside. Even though we only walked around for 10mins or so before it started raining again, at least me and CC got to go out! Horray and we love Ma ma!
There is no free lunch. When we got home, both CC and I were a bit wet (the ground we walked on was still wet so this got our feet and legs all wet as well). Ma ma took out towels and cotton balls and we knew we could not escape our destiny of taking a BATH! I hate baths but CC is dumb - she likes anything that I hate so she doesn't mind taking baths. In fact, I think she LIKES being bathed...
Surprisingly, Ma ma did not have to go into work today. She said she has done most of her spreadsheeting last week so did not have to go in today. Whilst Ma ma typed again on her keyboard at home, me and CC decided to take a nap.

Ma ma's photo
Buffy wrote:
After a year of having purchased this camera, Ma ma has finally figured how to use the auto timer to take a photo! I could have taken a photo for her but I guess she doesn't trust me to have steady enough paws to taken one.
You'll see a picture of my Ma ma on the side. Busy typing away, but she took her reading glasses off because she said she didn't want to look too intellectual. As you can see, she still looks a bit pale as she is recovering from her awful flu. Speaking of which, she kept me up most of the night with her coughing and blowing her nose. We had tissues (wontons) all over the place in the room...

Fire at Exchange Square!
Buffy wrote:
And Ma ma is home early!!! Ma ma went to work today, despite the fact that she could barely get up in the morning. She came home before 5:30pm today and we were soooo surprised. No luck with a walkie though cos she fell right into bed after she took a quick shower.
She mumbled something about a fire in Exchange Square which is where she works, and that's why she came home so early. Hmm...not sure what a fire is but it would be good if there could be a fire at Exchange Square everyday so that I get to see Ma ma more!

Ma ma is sick!
Buffy wrote:
Dear all, I have not been able to write for some time as Ma ma is sick - this time with a flu and fever! I was very very busy nursing her. I nurse Ma ma by licking her face and making sure that she is alive when she lies on her bed. I also am very 'gwai gwai' as I would lay right next to her to make sure she is warm and snuggled up in her bed. (It was 36degrees celcius the other day, Ma ma did not turn the air cond on as she said she felt COLD - that's how ill she was!)
Before Ma ma got ill, she took me and CC out on the weekend which was lots of fun. She also took lots of pictures of me and CC - as you'll see on the side.
I hope Ma ma gets better so cos I wanna go for my walkies again. :)

Ma ma studying for her final exam!

It's Sunday night and Ma ma is crashing hard on studying for her HKIHRM exam.... she looks very serious and a bit worried so neither me nor CC dared to go near her!
We waited silently next to her while she studied...

Ma ma is at home today!
Buffy wrote:
Ma ma started to get up non-stop during the night to go to the toilet. I think she ate something wrong... She stayed home today even though I think it is supposed to be a work day!
Ma ma's routine today was sleeping and going to the toilet. She checked her work emails every now and then. AND she played fetch with me as well during her lunch break.
At about 5pm, I think Ma ma finally feels a little better. She got up from her sofa bed and started taking pictures of me and CC sunbathing on her bed. This is now our daily routine. Jessie would cover the bed so that we don't make Ma ma's bed dirty.
Ma ma also spents a lot of time looking after her new plants. Pictures of the flowers on this blog as well! Ma ma gives the 'money trees' a shower once a week. She literally puts the plants into the bathtub and showers them. She says they will be happier that way because those plants are used to being 'showered' by Gung gung and Por por in Chadley Court... whatever that means!

Happy Fathers' Day, Gung Gung!
Buffy wrote:
To celebrate Fathers' day this weekend, Ma ma took me and CC out for walkies on both Saturday and Sunday.
A special mention re Ma ma's intution to take me out yesterday morning (Sat). From 11am onwards yesterday, it has been raining! If Ma ma hadn't gotten up early to take me out, then we would not have gotten to go out for a walkie at all!
Today (Sunday), Ma ma took me and CC to walk up the stairs from Tai Hang to Lai Tak Tsuen. We then walked up to Braemar Hill from there. As Ma ma has been going to the gym quite regularly, she seems a lot fitter and didn't need to make me wait for her when going up the stairs, hee hee.
We went to our favourite R&B cafe at Braemar Hill shopping centre, and of course, I got to have my plain toast. Yum! The mad dog and owner were not there - thank goodness!

Thunderstorm
Buffy wrote:
Thunderstorm in Hong Kong this weekend. Luckily, Ma ma gave up going to yoga yesterday morning, so that she could take me out for a walkie. She said the weather is unpredictable and we should go for a walkie when the ground is dry and sky has cleared. I love Ma ma!
Kai ma came over for dinner last night - picture of me and Kai ma on the side. I was very excited (so was CC) when we saw Kai ma - we haven't seen her for a whole week! Kai ma wanted to take me and CC out for a walkie yesterday afternoon (Sat) but the rain started again so no luck!
After dinner last night, I was a bit tired so I went and slept on Ma ma's bed. At 1am, I decided to scratch my crate and whinge because it was too stuffy and hot outside. I wanna sleep in Ma ma's room! Ma ma succumbed to my whinging and let me and CC out (after I had quieten down). I think Ma ma is gonna go and get her water cooling air cond for us today.

Walkie night, happy night
Buffy wrote:
Ma ma woke up at 6am this morning, hoping to take me out for a walk. Unfortunately, thunderstorm started shortly after 6am and we did not get to go out.
I waited and waited for Ma ma to come home. She arrived home at 9pm and even though she was very very tired, she still took my leash out after dinner and was determined to take me out for a walkie!
So off we went. CC did not get to go though, just me and Ma ma. Ma ma took me to the small park behind Lotus Street, near where we live. Ma ma played hide and seek with me and even though she sprayed her legs and arms thoroughly with mosquitoe repellent, she still got bitten. I watched while Ma ma's mossie bit get bigger and bigger.... Ma ma finally could not stand the heat and mossie bite and took me home after about 20mins of playtime in the park. Oh well, this was better than nothing!

Hot hot summer night

This week has been extremely hot and stuffy. The fan in the living room initiates warm wind and heats up the room even more.
Ma ma could not bear to have us bake in our crates so she allowed me and Jie Jie Buffy to sleep in her room. Jie Jie Buffy (JJB) has a thing for crawling under the quilt - even though it is SO HOT, she still crawls under the quilt and sleeps there. Unlike JJB, I sleep next to Ma ma's shoulders, on top of the quilt.
Ma ma said she will purchase a water cooler for us so that me and JJB can sleep with ease in our crates again.
Tonight, Jessie brushed our teeth right after dinner (before Ma ma came back). I like Jessie brushing my teeth cos she brushes very lightly and doesn't brush the places that hurts. However, not knowing that Jessie has brushed our teeth again, Ma ma grabbed me after she wiped down JJB from her walkie, and brushed my teeth... for the 3rd time today! Poor me!

We're bored, ma ma!

Ma ma came home late tonight as she had a conference call. No chance of us going out for walkie as Ma ma looked dead tired when she came home. Bummer!
It's a very very hot day. Last night, we had trouble sleeping because it was so hot! Tonight, while Ma ma is in her room logging into the internet, we decided to sneak onto her bed and hope we can stay...
CC was impatient and decided to go back to her own crate and play instead. I am more persistent and I stayed! Picture of me on Ma ma's bed, and CC in her crate.
Ma ma went to the gym at lunch today and picked up 2 x apples for us!! But we didn't get to eat this tonight. Maybe we'll get it for breadfast instead tomorrow....
Good night!

Today is the 4th June!

"Today is the 4th June" - This was Ma ma's excuse for not taking me out for a walkie tonight!
Ma ma said there are lots of people gathered in Victoria Park tonight due to a 4th June related activity, and therefore, could be dangerous. So instead of taking me out for a walkie, she gave me and CC apple instead...which is almost as good! (photo of me with my new haircut, CC and apple)
Ma ma said she will go to the gym again tomorrow so that she can get another apple for us. Yepee!
Ma ma unpacked in her new office today (Ma ma's office moved to Two Exchange Square). She has a very loud and mah-fan colleague sitting next to her now, who is also from Australia. Ma ma said this colleague gives Australians a bad name.

A happy Sunday!
Buffy wrote:
Today was a sunny Sunday. Ma ma initially woke up at 6am, but saw the ground was wet so waited till 8am to take me out for my hike.
We took a taxi up to Braemar Hill and walked up the trail that way. The ground was still slightly moist from the rain but nice and soft so makes my paws very comfy when I walked along.
I saw a big mushy mud paddle and was very tempted to go play in the mud. Ma ma shouted at me and stopped me before I could lay my paws in it though...
CC didn't get to go hiking with us though. Ma ma is still worried from the previous mad dog (Jess) incident, so she doesn't wanna take us both out at the same time in case she could not manage and look after both of us properly. But that's ok, CC is so tiny in size anyway - she should be able to get her daily exercise just by running around in our little flat. :)

The second half of my day was less enjoyable... and here is why...
When Ma ma took me home, I was pleasantly surprised that I did not have to take a bath. Ma ma simply wiped me down and let me go!
Ma ma then went out to have lunch with her ex-colleague from Michael Page. At about 2:30pm, Ma ma came home! She took my leash out and I was SO excited! Hiking in the morning and walkie again at 2:30pm!? This is too good to be true! (even though it seemed a little odd that Ma ma would take me out at 2:30pm - she often says it's too hot to go out from 11am to 3pm, as this is a high risk period during the day when dogs could easily get a heat stroke)
So I happily trotted along with Ma ma...only to find myself end up at Conny's place! (Conny is my groomer) Ma ma, please don't leave me there!!!
Of course, Ma ma left me that and turned up 3hours later to pick me up. Yuck! I hate taking a bath, and worse of all, I hate grooming and getting my haircut.
The only GOOD thing was, I got to see Kai ma!! Kai ma came with Ma ma to pick me up from the groomer's place. Ma ma went along with Kai ma to Wanchai Lockhart Road (to purchase stuff for Kai ma's new place) while I was at the groomer's. I haven't seen Kai ma for 2 weeks! I was SO HAPPY to see Kai ma that I scratched Ma ma's neckline by accident. (I was hoping to jump from Ma ma onto Kai ma, but forgot that it's Ma ma's skin I'm stepping on...) Ma ma now has a red scratch mark on her neckline. Oops!

Looked forward to Ma ma coming home tonight as it's not raining anymore and there is a chance that she might take me out for a walkie tonight. (better than nothing, right?!)
Ma ma did not look well when she came back. I saw her taking her migraine tablets so I guess she must have her big bad headache again. Poor Ma ma. And poor Buff Buff!
The only resolution is - Ma ma gets a free fresh apple when she signs out from the gym, so both me and CC had apple tonight. Yum yum!
