Btw, I visited a doctor here for the first time. A Dr W. I shall not spell out the name. Quite an experience. As compared to doctors in Singapore, he talked a lot and examined very little. Quite a pompous and cynical one too. He thinks that whatever I am feeling is all in the mind and I am stressing myself out. He did not even want to review the doctors' records I have with me from Singapore. The 2 visits that I went, his main concern would be whether I am sleeping enough. No 7 hours sleep. That's not enough in his criteria. In a way, he is forcing me mentally to get more than 8 hours sleep. That's what I do now. Sleep before 10pm and wake up about 7am. Some days, I even go to bed at 8.30pm. That is something that I will never do when I am in Singapore. I guess that is good. Body needs rest to repair. So, you kids out there, GET YOUR 8 HRS sleep. Do not sleep only when your body feels tired. Sleep before it does and the body will repair itself better. For good health, sleep well. :) The strangest thing about this doctor is....he even questions his own prescription to me. I told him that I think I was getting better with the meds he prescribed. His question was : How do I know it's the meds that's working and not something else? Well, what can I say? I am dumb founded. No doctors have ever asked me that. Honey A thinks he is an asshole. I would just like to think him as weird. So, will probably stick with hubby's GP instead if he accepts new patients.
Honey A and I are also looking for a 2nd car for me. We have decided on a Honda CRV after much consideration. Will post some pics when we get it. Honey A is currently negotiating for the best price. For him, he is driving his beloved Mazda 3. Here's a pic...
Weather is superb now in San Jose. We are getting relatively cool summer. Occasional hot days but mostly cool. Every evening, we will take walks around Elan after dinner to work my bloating and pressure off. Hubby has been very sporting to keep me company in these walks. It is indeed so comforting to have him around.
I am posting some pics of Elan. For those who have been here before, you will notice that there are not much changes. In fact, after all these years of being away, I don't see any drastic changes in this area. The only change is people. There are definitely more Indians and mainland Chinese. Just like in Singapore. Flooded. Every evening, one will find contingents of prams and parents and grandparents. Quite a sight. 
Well, that's all for today. Will fill in when I have more to update.
