Exactly Two Month

IMG_1517It’s exactly two months today after I visited the doctor in Sept. My cough is like come and go. But yesterday was really bad. I need to leave the room and sneeze. Running nose is coming back? I hate this.

I remember I hardly fall sick when I am a child, a teenage and an adult. I would give the first credit to my mother who had breastfed me for 6 months. Falling sick will be a nightmare for me.

I went to the clinic this morning and given 4 types of medicines. I have to admitted I did not take the medication seriously last round. So this time, I will finish all the medicines that the doctor had specifically indicated to me I have to finish them. I don’t want to spend another S$45 again. (Last round I spend S$48.)

How To Relieve Word Document After You Decided Not To Save Them?

I nearly need to rewrite my last entry on our outing in United Square.

I blog using Microsoft Word and will then paste the written entry into Window Live Writer.

Yesterday, my notebook couldn’t initialize. (My notebook is always in sleep mode. I am lazy to turn on the notebook all the time again and again.) I removed my battery and let it “restart”.

When I finally start up my notebook and open my word document, it prompts me whether I want to kept the last two word documents. Without thinking much, I clicked “No”. When I reopened those documents, I realized all my effort gone!!!

“Heart Sink”

I asked my hubby will there be a way to relieve the last generated document. And his answer is yes and here are the steps.

Go “C” Drive -> Look for your user name -> Find this folder, AppData. Under this folder, you need to find the Word folder. -> You should see a few documents with this naming convention, “Auto- recovery save of “your file name”, click open. You should be able to find the last updated copy.

Remember I clicked “No” when Microsoft word prompted me to. Those files that I have clicked “No” to it, had gone to the recycled bin. You just need to go to the recycled bin to restore the file and then you will see it in the AppData/Word folder again.

Our Little India Heritage Tour

Do you know in Little India beside the famous Veeramakaliamman Temple,

And a Chinese Temple. (Ops, hubby didn’t take a picture of the temple.)

Do you know why the devotees ring the bells before entering the temple?

Devotees ask God to grant their requests by ringing the bells before entering. They also purify themselves by washing their hands and feet, and sprinkling water on their heads. Near the door, devotees break coconuts as a symbol of breaking their egos to reveal their pure and kind inner-selves.

Do you know why the building in Little India is narrow and long in length?

It because in the past, the amount of tax to pay for the building was using the measurement of the width but not the length. (Why now use floor area? !@#$$%)

We visited one of the last spice grinding shops in Singapore. The betel nut-chewing spice grinders here will grind spice mixtures or mill flour at your request. The shop is open from 9.00 a.m. to 6.30 p.m. and is closed on Mondays.

Before we went home we had Thosai for lunch in one of the India fast food restaurant.

It’s tiring but a very educational morning.
