Yep I’m still here. It’s been quite a week, thus draining me from the inspiration to write. Just a bit of an update of what’s been going on lately:
– The hubs and I have been house-hunting for a place of our own for a while now, and we actually found a place we liked last weekend. The property was to be sold in an auction, but the real estate agent told us that the owner’s keen on selling it before the auction. To cut the long story short, our offer didn’t cut it. The owner wanted more money, which we weren’t keen on. Oh well. If it isn’t meant to be, it isn’t meant to be. It’s back to the house-hunting grindstone.
– When you’re doggone too lazy to go fetch a sweater or blanket whilst on the couch watching telly, and you’re sitting right next to an opened window, you’re bound to catch a chill. And caught a chill I did. Stupid stupid me *smack achy forehead*
– Thanks to a kind reader’s reminder, I finally got my dark moles checked out by a dermatologist today. As dark as they are, the dermie said that all were well, and unless I want to remove them for cosmetic purposes, he really wouldn’t recommend removing them since there was nothing wrong with them. At the moment, I shan’t remove them yet. The husband has very willingly agreed to keep tabs on the moles 😉
– Oh, and I finally, FINALLY had the guts to do a pap smear. To say it was unpleasant is putting it very lightly. The initial insertion of the speculum was uncomfortable, but bearable. The GP was kind enough to distract me with questions about Malaysia when she did the deed. What I didn’t expect was the sudden removal of the tool (that hurt big time), and the sudden insertion of her fingers to, err, “have a feel around” for abnormalities. I know this is way too much information for you to digest, but if you haven’t had a pap smear before, this is something you’d have to expect. Better to keep you informed. I hadn’t a clue (about the fingers, I mean), and to be honest, I felt a bit violated (even though the GP was a woman). At one point, I was thinking to myself “geez woman, what the heck are you doing down there? Digging for gold?!” Results were normal. Phew.
– Checked out MAC’s Colour Craft collection at last. Despite the hype and gorgeous images, the makeup was meh.
Regular posts will commence very soon 🙂
