Rain Rain...

We got up early to get ready for gym and as we were getting ready, the sky opened up and came down the rain. So we sat and contemplated on whether to go or not. Then decided we won't and we'll go on Saturday and Sunday. I managed to take some pictures of the rain. 

I took the opportunity to make good breakfast since we have a good amount of time to get ready for work. Here's our breakfast. 

Its bacon and eggs with toast! Enjoy. 

Time to get ready for work now. 

Dinner

Seems I'm on the ball today aren't I? Today I was realising that we have been cooking nearly every night. So we decided to break the record and to have home cook meals the whole week! So just imagine, being Thursday how famish we would have been. 

Ta da! Our dinner. Its kidney beans, chick peas salad and grilled broccoli with Prata. I was really looking to coming home early and cook dinner before hubby returned home from work and guess what happened. I did manage to leave work early (don't tell my boss) and got home around 5 and came to realise that I have left the keys in the house! How silly of me. So I went over to our neighbour Leena and waited till hubby came home. 


Sometimes I just hate the Murphy's law. 


Tomorrow is Friday and I'm looking forward to going for a run. Good night. Gotta go and pack now.

Elma Apple Tea

Its nearly half day has passed and I'm doing quite good at work. Feeling good that I am accomplishing a few tasks. Yesterday a lady in my office gave me this box of Lipton Apple Tea since she doesn't take tea and I'm known to be the tea person in office apparently.


So I thought why not I try this tea today.

I was a little skeptical about this tea when I smelled it. Then when I poured the hot water onto the tea cup I got a pleasant surprised! Look at the color of the tea, its bright red and the aroma is quite citricy. I don't mind having this once in a while but not religiously though. 

BTW, I miss T2!!!

Its Thursday, you know what that means right?

No gym and slept till 7:20. Last night hubby was feeling not too well so he went off to bed at 9:00. Even myself was feeling kind of weak and tired that I went to bed around 10:00. I was watching Doctor 90210. Yeah, brainless shows. I wanted to take a break from having to check emails and reply and work so I didn't bring my laptop back home. 


Tinki scared me last night, I knew she went inside the kitchen and was playing around and she went quiet. Before I slept, I wanted to make sure she's not stuck in some corner and was trying to call her name out. No sound! Then I decided to walk away and BAM!!!!! the card box which was tucked away on top of the cupboard fell and there she was inside it meowing. Naughty one I'm telling you and of cuz hubby slept through all those noise.


I am now reinstating the routine of jumping in the shower the moment I get out of the bed. No breakfast nor sitting in front of tele first. I used to just take my own time after brushing and freshen up till I hit the shower and I find that it makes me feel lazy and make take more time on getting ready. So if I get the shower task done first thing in the morning I could get more time to my other things. 


It's Thursday today so I'm fasting and munching on grapes for the whole day. I also soaked Kidney beans and  chick peas last night so that we can cook dinner at home so to break our usual routine. I am hoping to get back home early today. 

Grapes I brought.

This is a picture of Singapore Flyer on a sun set. Not a great picture as I took it while I was in the cab ride back home yesterday. I actually wanted to take the picture of the red Sun but didn't manage to get it in the picture.

Today' note : Give yourself a break for every now and then.

Is it the weather or a little too tired

I got a blocked and runny nose in office and came home and it wasn't getting any better. Also hubby came home and said that his head is hurting and that he's feeling feverish. So I decided to make us dinner at home. I was thinking of ordering Pizza in but I know we shouldn't be spending too much. I did take a picture of our dinner tonight.

It looks not so appealing isn't it, but hey hubby loves it and I liked it. So the three without cheese were hubby's ones and with cheese is mine. 

I slept last night! woo hoo

Last night we had left overs for dinner. We polished up the left over Kyar Zan Kyaw and hubby wasn't full so he also had fish curry with rice. Hubby bought me a bottle of Lindemans red but I thought I'd give myself a chance and see if I'd fall alseep because we went for a run in the morning and voila! I slept quite well without having to open the bottle. Tinki also came and slept near my foot. I love it when she sleeps near me.


We didn't watch anything specific on telle last night BUT we bought the tickets for Yangon. So we'll be going on the 9th of Dec till 13th of Dec. We're so looking forward to going back and it'll be hubby's first time in Burma.


I also had grapes for desserts and munching on them right now at work too.


Believe it or not, we hit the gym this morning too but I try to run for only 20 minutes.

Duration : 21:16 minutes

Distance : 2.5km

Calories burned : 136

Sweat level : Pretty good!

I managed to achieve my first goal. I ran for 2.4k under 20 minutes. Ha!

Today's note : God works in mysterious ways.

Made it!

Yes, you guessed it. We made it to the gym this morning. However, I did not sleep well. I am seriously thinking of buying some bottles of red wines. A glass before I sleep probably would be much better than sleeping pills wouldn't you agree? OK, I shall try it tonight. Also may be its just what's been happening around me make me think and also because we have been sleeping late for the past 2 months that my body is not used to sleeping early? Well I will try the wine and let you know tomorrow. 


So we hit the gym this morning. As much as my whole body was still sore I managed at 30 mins run and I'm quite happy with it.

Duration : 31:14 minutes

Distance : 3.6km

Calories burned : 198

Sweat level : Pretty good!

Poor hubby, he was grumbling today because he had to wait for me to finish my shower. Well, that just means that I will have to do faster in future. 

We also had KFC twister wrap and $3 meal for breakfast. My boss was kind enough not to go in office since we have a meeting at 11 and suggested me to go to the meeting direct. So, I managed to get back home and had a cat nap for 5 mins till my boss called. DARN!
