Better prepared this time?? Haha

Flying off tonight and doing last minute 想来想去 if I had missed out packing anything. 

Toilet roll! I know it’s dumb I’m not doing a backpacker holiday but … the toilet paper roll is so thin in the hotel, there’s basically no toilet paper in the public toilets. 

Our trip in Jan - hubby told us “don’t need to pack tissues. They have it on the table.” Then lil’ one and I were paperless-shocked when we realised there’s no tissue on the restaurant table. Whatever they had there is not suitable to wipe ourselves after reliving ourselves. But we weren’t so dumb afterall, we did pack a few packs of dry and wet tissues just that it wasn’t enough for our trip. We were in the supermarket anyway, things are cheap there anyway. 

This trip, packed a (1) toilet roll and 省吃俭用吧. When toilet paper is provided in public toilets then we use theirs. If not, at least I have this. Plus if my menses were to come during the hols I’ll definitely need more. Sigh…..why why why? Speaking of which, I remember long time ago I was complaining to my friend that my menses had to come when I was so looking forward to onsens, she said would take something to delay menses when she goes on holidays. Uhh…I don’t like to take things unnecessarily lah. Now I found out it’s called Norethisterone. 

(2) the leg sticker to relief my calf tiredness. I’m not climbing mountains but I’m sure going to walk a lot more than what I would do in SIN. I usually buy these in Japan, use some and bring home the rests + one to two extra boxes. Since I saw these in the drawer, pack lor! 

(3) Oximeter. I should have a blood pressure machine lah but … duh if only I bought the wrist one for travelling. Why oximeter? Coz when I wanted to test hubby’s O2 level in the high altitude places we were in, he couldn’t slip on my Apple Watch 😂. 

Health matters 

Slightly better sleep last night. I don’t know if hubby pinch or tried to scratch/grab me coz I put the pillow standing between us. For HBP - I’m reassured for now. Just hope it continues this way, and holiday will lower my cortisol in some way. Don’t want to rely on medication, hope not heading in the same direction, so now need a proper healthy diet when I’m back. Haha! Actually I will coz I’ll need to go vegetarian for a week after my trip 🪷.
