Yeap. I'm on 2 days MC. Kinda nice to be on MC and sleep. But i can't sleep much. MIL says not to sleep too much and Ww says to sleep as much as i can. now should i sleep somemore or not?
Yesterday my ILs finally found the thermometer, not the usual put-in-the-mouth kind (they suspect Ww's nephews hav taken it to play and misplaced it somewhere), but those put-in-the-ear kind. Took my temperature which was like 39.5 degrees. At first we thought that there's something wrong with the thermometer. are we supposed to deduct some amount coz it may not be accurate? anyway after taking it more than once, we kinda guessed it's kinda true...so my temperature was that high. :S after deliberating for quite a while (i thot i could go zz and see the doc the next day but i was kinda burning), we finally went to see a doc, just in case the fever fries my brain. the one near our place is no longer 24hrs (my MIL said they got robbed b4 that's why it's no longer 24hrs)...so we went to the one at Bedok instead.
I was checking out how much consultation fees are for after midnight..coz by the time we were there it was just a little past 12mn. anyway there were so much meds! when the lady placed all the meds on the table i was thinking...cham4 liao3....it's gonna be expensive. one for cough, 3 for high fever (2 of them is some pain killer and anti-gastric pain pills to be taken togthr), 1 for phlegm, one anti-biotics..and yes it is expensive. $74!! other than the late night charges which is extra $5 i think the ex part is the meds. sigh...count me inexperienced in seeing the doctor, which i only do so once in 2 years...and here i am..sick!
interestingly my tuition today got changed to tmr coz my student has extra classes today. thank God! but i'm still gonna pop by Ww's colleague housewarming later...to see their house.
oh talking about our new place...we've seen fridges, considered hood hobs, tvs, bedframes etc etc. but we haven't got any. even tho i mentioned that we went to look for tvs last week, we didn't get it in the end. $3k is quite a big sum to spend...we thot we'll wait and see. according to Ww's friend, because of the world cup season, tv supplies are increased to encourage ppl to buy tvs and to meet the demand, but after that there will be surplus and the stores will be trying to sell it off at a lower price...plus when new models come out nearer to the end of the year, the older ones will be cheaper. interesting theory...which gives us good reason to not buy yet. more about our applicance and furniture shopping another time...
