I also have this problem during the old days in TLB. During the night, the trees tends to absort alot of oxygen, thus leaving the air very dry. So moisturise cream and air moisturiser everyday to keep skin and breahting smooth. Just like the concept of sleeping with Aircon. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

MummyLee 0 Report post Posted November 6, 2007 the kitchen look so classy!hi there butterflykisses, thank you for the compliments.. well we prefer the classy feel then the totally modern look but then again as we have kept the previous owners marble flooring, we also have to match our taste and the style, plus our contractor have contributed some ideas which have been helpful.How bout you is your house blog here for viewing?

Guess a face lift like this is we are really happy, imagine if its full reno?! Haiz no choice no more spare $$... wah mummylee, very daring choice of colour for your kitchenswee ah Apple freak thank you ah... we are considered not so daring liow actually we wanted to go with black tiles, you know those with shiny specks? but i though i love creme colour so much and it seems cleaner i managed to persuade my boss AKA my hubby Actually there are air bubbles on 3 of the cabinet panels so my contractor will arrange for them to redo it till we are happy!! Mace and Typ, you all stay in TLB? wa with your assurance i will feel better now.. hope the town council will be able to help us residents but upgrading the lighting , lift and the total outlook of TLB.Wa i didn know the air is dry there.. maybe can get a humidifier for the kiddos..
