7 Mar 2025 – SGH

Tue: ShrovePancakeTueday and no pancakes today but whole morning in SGH and with DrOng was good that the CT-scan results showed whatever that was there has shrunk and next scan due Aug. With DrDevanand, 2new prescriptions(Prednisolone/reduce inflammation&Erdosteine/phlegm)for the next few weeks hoping to rid this constant cough+more test to be carried out. Feels like the lungs have been compromised since Covid and 2020Lung-surgery? Let’s hope that breathing will better by the next month’s appt. Admiring&enjoying the surroundings between consultations.

Dinner with May@Tonito/JewelS$82 before she took off after a short&sweet working visit. Appreciate&tkx for the visit – made my week. Decent LatinAmerican food but would prefer Guac&Pico without pineapples! Somehow the fusion with pineapples did not suit my taste but blessed to have a meal with my beautiful 2ndBorn surrounded by lush greenery with the RainVortexWaterfall in the background. Was there in 2022 –

Wed: AshWednesday – joy-riding(~1hr) on Bus16-33-shuttle@SGH to deliver sputum sample for testing and shuttle from SGH-MRT-TEL-OutramPkSta back to the EastSide(~30mins). Time consuming but do have time and grateful that it is still possible to get there myself with as little walking possible, especially when short of breath with moments feeling like a sloth at present! Walks to the MRTs take longer despite the shorter time on the trains. Back to a familiar station watching kids in familiar uniforms enjoying@this new Cheers(nearer Exit1)while sitting for a couple of mins on the bench(nearer Exit2)appreciating the moments of the luxury of SIN-public-transport choices.

Here its laundry time and out with the sewing machine – delighted to find these giftcards,stickers&BeanieBabies collected over the years. OK got the message, no more buying any of such items. Content to be financially,mentally,physically self-sufficient in this life-journey so far. Thoughts of being dependent or reliant challenges me to do the utmost best to NOT go in that direction.

Fri: 2 new MRT-lines serving 400,000+ households could be operational in the 2040s, pending feasibility studies by LTA and no will definitely not live to see them. As it is, thrilled to be on MRT-TEL-MTsta hoping to experience BedokSouth&SungeiBedokSta which are still under construction. How will this tiny RedDot hold up to these constant UnderGround&AboveGround constructions?? Hopefully the experts know exactly what they are doing with their calculation&research.
