SELAMAT BERPUASA SEMUA!

Today's our second day of puasa. There were some confusions in my family in determining the day to start puasa. Some websites indicated Tuesday, some Wednesday. Our arabic foster parents at the halal meat market said Tuesday and so did Ayu (she got the info from Indus Halal meat market).

First day of puasa went well with the kids. Mat did not complain about being tired after his daily 1 mile run at school. Masturah did not stop talking all day yesterday, an indication that she was not dehydrated and had tonnes of energy to spare. The husband said he lost another 2 lbs from the diet (he had lost 12 lbs so far) but I have not been feeling good so far.

The 'best friend' has not arrived and this headache just would not go away until the 'best friend' arrives. Now…I have changed my music taste. Since metal music will only aggravate my migraine, I changed to classical and opera classic songs. At least when I need to take my mind off of work, I would feel myself doing the 'tiptoes'.

Til then, selamat berpuasa!

***UPDATE***

The classical music did work! My headache seemed to have gone away. So now you would know what to do when you get those stubborn headaches!

Updated my Recipe Blog...Bubur Asyura.

ya twin, baroque or classical music can pacify the frequency of your brainwave thus relaxing it. By listening to a lot of these, it enables you to absorb more ilmu than usual too. try it on your kids. recordings of selawat nabi also has the same kinda of effect.

am glad ur headache is gone. we are still figuring out the trigger of our migraines

yup u're right. it kinda makes me feel floaty and lesser stressed. i need to start bringing back the selawat CD's fm home. they're very good calmers for the kids and me.

my headache is not totally gone yet. it am still getting the 'massage' fm the classicals. i dont get this every mth, but every 2 mths or so when its that time of the mth.

hope u feel better too twin!

Try pinching rubbing in between your thumbs and fingers,ely. Said to be the pinpoint to your brain nerve or something. So that's what my colleague said. Best yet...istighfar as much as you can. You will also be granted abundant rewards for that. Your choice;)

Slamat berpuasa!

p.s. your bubur looks _______ going to the mosque to get some today!heh:)
