Gastric on protest

Was away the whole afternoon at compass point. Went to see doc again as the medicine he prescribed to me earlier on was giving me chest pain and nauseousness. Waited a long while for him as he had some urgent procedure to attend. Cldn't tanah the wait and super strong aircon so went to window shop around till the assistant called me hee.

The doc was saying might be there was too much gas in the body and one of the medicine he had given me earlier on might agrrevate it further. So change another type of medicine. Just ate and will monitor. Hmm for now i still feel nauseous but it was even be4 i took the medicine. After meal, i already felt it. Guess my intestines are on strike now hee.

Eat too little cannot, eat too much also cannot, they so hard to please hee ;p

After seeing doc, window shop a bit be4 doing grocery at cold storage. Oops today is green day, need to pay for plastic bag. So instead i hand carry the items (chicken & potato) and went to buy a loaf of bread fr 4 leaves. Hee use the plastic bag (free) to put the things. Cheap-po me hee, no lah can save, must save. Oh ya, i knew cold storage sold things for a premium but i didn't know by how a great difference till today! Today i am of cooking fish but no fish fillet at cold storage. Instead i bought chicken thighs at $4.40 for 2. At prime mkt, it is selling at the most $3.50! So i am paying an additional of $0.90 or more! To a housewife, this is a lot of money. You can buy add veg for this! Also, potatoes are more exp too! By a difference of $.05 - $0.08 for 1 potato.

Ok next time, will not buy fr cold storage unless really neccessary. Hee really a hsewife now, aiyoh. Now i am stricter on myself. Disciplining myself to spend $5-$6 for a dinner. If not, will be like eating outside + carpark fee. The most can stretch to $6.50 if its for "pu" purposes.

Ya, both of us are watching our diet. So we are cutting down on the intake of carbo. Yesterday, i prepared salad and small portion of pasta (half the usual portion) and today grilled chicken. Hmm but somehow the portion is still very filling. Will learn to cut down more.


Just now, we took toby out for walk. And our dear boy had a funny practise. Whenever, he reached our floor after the walk, he wld dash to our door in split secs. We'll always ask him, what's the rush? Daddy & mummy still far away. Guess he just enjoys sprinting hee.

The tv will be delivered tomorrow noon. So fast! Yahoo! The cost of repair + delivery is $336, that's reasonable. Ok need to control watching tv, even if i enjoy the noise despite not watching hee ;p Oh ya, the technician was saying that if we ever get a LCD tv, we need to get an extended warranty. Based on his experience, most LCDs will need repair aft the 1yr warranty. Oh no, ours is free fr Starhub, no extended warranty!! Ok ok watch less often to prolong life span.
