This time round we head to San Francisco, Disneyland, San Diego, Las Vegas and also Universal Studios. First 3 days was all the way, walking and queuing for the rides at Disneyland. Thought we avoid the crowds but still there was crowd. Argghhhhh. Standing in the que and under the hot afternoon sun. All of us got sunburn. My legs were totally exhausted after the 3 days. Even shopping at Factory Outlets wasn't even that of a hard work.
At San Francisco, we had a great dinner at Hong Kong Seafood Restaurant. Enjoyed some crab at the stall in Pier 39. Parking was terrible and expensive. Everywhere was pay and pay. We thought Singapore was bad, San Francisco is also bad. People there are not exceptionally friendly. Roads was confusing with tons of one way, no left turn, no right turn signs. Houses were so close together and the roads are hills like taking a roller coaster ride. Lucky our car is not manual gear, if not I would be really scared taking car to anywhere.Stayed there for 3 nights and that is more than enough. can't wait to get out of there. Lovely weather tough but won't want to stick around too long in unfriendly place.
Universal Studio was not all that fun as I thought it would be. The rides are not all that great and they have mostly 4D shows. Not that fantastic as it used to be.
Las Vegas, I managed to catch hold of a good breakfast. Scrambled eggs, bacon and sausage. Not forgetting, Orance Juice.
Overall, San Diego would go again. LA and Las Vegas will drop by also. Tiring 2 weeks vacation and came back with tons of laundry to do.

Another post op visit to the Hand Surgery Clinic
2 months after accident and finally the Dr. that fix my hand has time for me. HOORAY! 3 trip there. Today service was fast to call me but slow to wait for the Dr but must be my Dr. busy lor
Again, he mentioned got go therapy and I say still waiting for someone from therapy center to call. Same story to them again. I give up and told him to refer me back to the base. He get his Medical Assistant to write me yet another medical script. 3rd one and I still have to wait for the call coz Medical Assitant says not her department handle. Again there is the no flexibility there and don't know what they can do to serve me better. Sigh ... 10 year like that.. 10 years after still like that... and so much for any service I get. Can someone share the same feeling with me? The Dr. can say my fingers stiff.... eeeerr I know but the therapy not helping. I am doing the middle finger exercise myself ... if not you think now I can bend? Don't think so! At times like this... the feeling can be turn to anger and even hatred at the party who caused this accident... why you can't wait meh? You rush then I not huh?
Later received a call from the clinic... wow this woman understand the frustration of being tossing around. Call the air base and no one can give her the details she need. At least she clever enough to call and ask me. Then why don't give me handle instead? Guess.... their procedure and inflexibility that caused it. What to do? Bear with it lor. I must admit that at least I know the clinic did something to make my therapy move then tomorrow I can call to see. Not wait for them to call like to last two. Hopefully.. 4 weeks time, I can show something to the Dr.

I was young again!
I had this sweet dream. It feels so great and filled with happiness. I was young again? Not sure but feels like.
Was that my Dad at the swimming area long wood chair lying? I saw my two sister-in-laws talking or gossiping and running down the stairs of a what look like a big mansion or was it a resort or hotel?
I saw a brown dog running around me.
I saw myself holding hands with a guy that feels like it is my husband. We were walking to a quiet place. A room he stay in. More like a cramp place. He knock the door and open. I joke, wow got people open door for you. He showed me that someone lives up there. I look up, a plank, some shoes stored inside.
I woke up!

Post op visit
Post op visit today. Another doctor came to attend to me. This doctor I like. He gave me information I needed and addressed my concern about my finger.
So, like I expected, grafted is like a cover up to allow the skin underneath heal. The scarf (black thing) will peel when new skin underneath heals. He told me to put coco butter cream to moisturize the skin for better movement.
I addressed my sadness about not having started therapy. The center cannot find my paperwork. So disorganized. They arrange another for me.
I am glad for now! Things are going to be ok. Thank our LORD for watching. Please do continue to watch over me and give me the strength to recover my fingers back to way is was.
