It rained (AGAIN!) today, so nobody went to work.. But K woke up at 6am as usual and couldn't get back to sleep after that. Think his clock is already set to auto wake up at 6am everyday. = )
I got up at 1030am, and we made chocolate chip pancakes for breakfast.. K's pancakes didn't turn out as well in terms of the shape. Mine were much better. But they all tasted lousy anyway. We used some kind of ready made pancake mixture that just needed water to be added before frying, so i shouldn't have expected much.
K and I had a fight again today. But i am too tired and lazy to blog about the whole story. Basically, i was bored, i wanted to go out, but K wanted to finish watching the last DVD and sleep. On the other hand, i had also planned on going through my list of things to do, and discuss with K about them, such as finding accommodation in 2 weeks time when we leave Hastings, ferry tickets to South Island, etc.. But i couldn't.. In the end, K went to sleep whilst i surfed the net and did the whole list myself. K had agreed to do it when he wakes up, but i couldn't wait then cause i had nothing to do and wanted to discuss with him now, but he wanted to sleep. Then i got hungry a few hours later.. I wanted to drive out and eat but didn't want to wake him up. I got pissed off cause i didn't like to have to depend on him to drive me out cause i don't know how to drive. It's like I am stuck in the house when he is working, but when he is not working, i am also stuck in the house cause he wants to rest, read his book or watch DVD.. So anyway, i ended up cooking porridge and two side dishes for lunch around 330pm. And that's when the fight started.. over lunch.
I also dunno what's wrong with me.. It's like my hormones are going crazy or something.. Or i am just using them as an excuse cause i know i go crazy a lot even before i got pregnant.. = )
Sigh, i feel like such an elephant these days... so clumsy, and eat so much. I got such a bad backache the day after i went jogging that i couldn't even walk properly. It's exactly like the backache i had on my first day of work at the vineyard. Terrible. I was reading my book on the sofa in the living room while everyone had gone to bed.. then i had difficulty getting up. It was so bad i had to actually struggle to stand up and get out of the sofa.. Then today, i tripped twice over stuff lying around in the living room.. Lucky never fall down.. haha..
K and I went out after lunch... K had suggested driving to Te Mata Peak to watch the sunset, then go and return the DVDs and rent more. But when we reached the Peak, there was no sun at all, much less sunset. All we saw were gloomy dark clouds that indicated it was going to rain again soon. Nonetheless, the scenery was beautiful. Just a pity that weren't more sunlight or clear skies. We drove around the town center of Havelock North where Te Mata Peak was located in, then headed back to Hastings to rent another 10 more DVDs for the week.
K told me that he will stop working next week and we can drive around to do some sightseeing and have some fun before we go South Island. And maybe next week if it rains and there is no work, we will go to Taupo with Michael and the rest of the China gang to ski / snow board / tobogan.. can't wait!!
For dinner, Ah Ming whipped up this delicious hot and slightly peppery / spicy soup he called "Chup Chye Soup".. There's salted vegetables, roasted chicken, small chilli and god knows what else he puts inside. But it was delicious.. then he grilled 2 fishes, one with oyster sauce, and one with sambal sauce. We had those with steamed white rice. Yummy as usual! And for dessert, Ah Ming cooked red bean soup.. Supposed to help replenish blood.. He had cooked that for A cause she's having her period.. So sweet right!! So i just freeload loh.. = )
I just had a chat with WM, my JC friend who just had her baby boy few months ago.. We had a video call on MSN and she was playing with her baby. Her baby boy is soo cute. and she seems so happy as a mummy. I asked her to send me photos so i can look at them everyday, and hopefully mine will be boy and equally cute..
WM asked me to talk and sing to my baby everyday.. Funny how i never considered that.. except to listen to classical music. I shall tell K that from tomorrow onwards, every night we will both talk and sing to baby for at least 10 minutes before we sleep.. I hope our combined singing won't freak baby out! = )
