Yesterday I met up with a potential client at a cafe. We briefly went through his business plan, and I introduced our services and fees. He did source around before meeting me, and he felt that our professional fees are slightly higher than what he has seen.

She is indeed one lucky woman. Por Por, 83 endured a long flight and made it safely to Canada.
I just saw pictures of her on Facebook, with four grandchildren, and celebrating one of her grandson's birthday in Canada.
Por Por was a Chinese teacher in her younger days. She was also an athlete. I guess being a teacher by profession, she had to be a role model and needed to display positive attitude constantly. Being an athlete probably provided her with stronger discipline to be a positive person despite the obstacles life will always present.
At her age, she still cares and cooks for the family ~ a fine lady indeed.
Everyone of us will get old and become extinct one day. I say she is one lucky woman, and she deserves it.

Bobby - he has been around with the Gui family far longer than I have. When Sumini left the family and returned to Indonesia to help her husband in business, I suddenly realized - we are all slaves of dear Bobby!
When Sumini left, Karen flew back all the way from London so she can now take care of Bobby's meals, and his walks. Shortly after, mum-in-law stepped up her search efforts for the ideal helper who is able to take care of a dog. A previous helper was rejected as Bobby didn't seem to like her.
Irwin drove all the way back from Thomson one day during office hours as no one else was free to walk the dog. And you know what? Bobby frowns when you don't go the way he wants.
Mum-in-law also frequently looks out for a new housing, as she says that her dream is to let Bobby have a nice kennel...ok....
At dinner today, I realized Bobby had soup, broccoli and some dash of pork floss in his food bowl (in addition to his own food of course). And Bobby chose not to eat the stalk part of the broccoli!
Still, he's a lovely boy. Thats why we are working so hard - to get him that perfect kennel.
