A Visit to the Dentist

Yesterday morning, after taking my son to his nursery class, I went to make an appointment with the dentist. There were not many people in the clinic at that time, so I decided to have my appointment on that day. The wait was not too long as there were two dentists in that clinic. Apparently, the clinic was opened by a family of dentists.

I had not been to the clinic for ages. It was my first time visiting that clinic. The dentist was very professional as she explained every step she made and the condition of my teeth. She also told me the latest dental trend of filling up the cavities. Instead of drilling a big "hole" at the tooth, only the "damaged" part is drilled and filled. She found a tiny crack line on one of my wisdom teeth. I had scaling and two fillings done. That cost me $151! $55 for the scaling and $48 for each filling. She advised me to visit the dentist every 6 months to make sure the teeth and gum are in the tip-top condition. She said my teeth were in good condition.

She took about 45 minutes in all. :)

Clock has STOPPED!

This morning, at around 12.15, the new clock, which my sister-in-law has bought, stopped moving. How would I know the time? Let you guess. Anyway, she just bought it three days ago. It wasn't one of those made-in-China stuffs (no bias against it). Anyway, it was made in Japan and cost about 14 times more than the one I bought ($1.90).

Forgot to mention about the fault with the clock. It wasn't the faulty mechanism, but it was the ants! The ants went into the clock mechanism and jammed the gears of the clock. That caused the clock to stop. The shop lady was kind enough to remove the ants from the clock free-of-charge. I just got back the clock.

The lady advised me to spray some insecticide before hanging up the clock. That will prevent the ants from getting into the clock.

I'm PINK again!

I think I have recovered from that awful stomach flu. Why does stomach have flu? Weird! I think I still have to abstain from tea and coffee for a while. I have avoided oily food as much as I can. So far, there is no necessity to take that "vomit" medicine the doctor prescribed.

Thanks for those people who have sent me their regards.

I have fallen ill!

Yesterday morning, I was still feeling well and eating well. I even braved through one heavy downpour. I wonder if that was the cause of my illness. I started to feel weak after my tuition session with a boy. He was still recovering from his illness. He had fever the week before and was still having flu. I felt so weak and could hardly move my body. I felt so cold. That was when I realised that I had fallen sick.

I slept early last night. Could not eat much as my stomach was bloated even before eating. This morning, I went to see a doctor after taking my son to his nursery class. The doctor told me that I had stomach flu! Oh my, that is one of the worst illnesses. I have to abstain from oily food, coffee and tea. This illness will usually get worse before you will get better. Now, I don't feel like doing anything at all.

I better rest. Signing off.
