Yesterday was 'let Angie convalesce day'. When Aidan woke up in the morning, hubby was the one who attended to him, made his milk and changed his diapers..Hubby then called my in-laws and told them I was in a 'debilitated' state and was probably too sore to go over for lunch. They then promptly came over and took Aidan away with them so that I could rest well at home without having to watch over a hyper toddler. They probably thought that hubby couldn't handle Aidan alone for the entire day either. MIL also brought a bottle of Evening Primrose Oil on hearing that this was one of the items I required to alleviate my discomfort.. Hubby also went to the pharmacy to look for a hot water bottle and Menstral Panadol [which was item 2 n 3] when I told him that the EPO wasn't an instant 'cure'..
Both the EPO and panadol didn't help much ..i guess i was probably just too sore already. But the hot water bottle sure felt good and eased the pain quite a bit! And so I lugged the hot water bottle around the whole day. Thanks to all for your kind advice. At least I know what to do the next time round *cross fingers it won't happen again though*
It was good to have some peaceful time at home but it did feel a little weird coz it was just too quiet. I was always expecting to hear the pitter patter of his li' feet or him calling out for me and asking for some 'mummum'..
Here's a tale about Aidan's piggy..
When the in-laws brought Aidan back in the evening, they told me that Aidan's pig was lost! They searched everywhere for it but they couldn't find it and they had no idea how it could have gone missing. It wasn't in the car and neither was it at their place. The only explanation was that Aidan could have thrown it out of the car window when dad had wound it down during the time he and dad were waiting for mom in the car while mom was doing some marketing.
Anyway, they just called me yesterday night and told me happily that they found the pig! They decided to go back to the carpark at Serangoon Central to check if it was there...and sure enough..there it was,lying on the floor next to where dad was parked this morning. Mom said it looked 'clean' and didn't seemed like it was run over. But she said that it was probably so unappealing looking that no one wanted it anyway hehe..So, the pig's been found and mom's gonna wash it before returning it to Aidan.
===================================
So I spent the day in bed curled up..watching this taiwanese series called The Rose...Okay..most of the impt female parts in this series are played by the members from the icky saccharine sweet girl group SHE and the lead is the tomboyish looking Ella..This should be reason enough for me NOT to watch this show but I can't resist watching serials which have been adapted from japanese manga and this was based on one of my fave manga series which I'd read when I was still in school. And boy did I not regret it. They didn't stray far from the storyline and the the male leads were so well-casted and extremely droolsome..very like the manga characters they portray! Didn't matter that both guys were at least a decade and a half younger than me *slurp* Heard that they were talent scouted for these two roles..One's Jerry Huang..he's 1.93m, really hunky and looks a li' caucasian-like..The other guy, Brian Zheng is abt 1.86m (where do they find these tall guys?!), has long hair and sharp features and looks like a cross between Nic Tse and Ekin Cheng [less beng tho] but with longer hair.
I always wonder why can't the 'talent scouters' at our local tv stations or Fly Entertainment do a better job at looking for talent. I mean..look at the people they've introduced so far..That supposedly 'jap-like' Shingo/Yukati from Light Years? Eeeew..there was one trailer where Evelyn was like saying "He's so cute! I was like..gawd. He's so ugly! Can't remember who are the others were but most were the cmi kind! I'm sure Singapore has much better looking and talented people around right?
And here's a video of the li' one 'making bubbles' in the bathtub (not that way u filthy minds!)
yeah..I'm feeling much better now as u can see from this long post :)

poor piggy.. did aidan notice that the piggy was missing?
I showed him how to do it a while back and ever since, he's always loves making the bubbles this way whenever he's in the bath :)
Aidan has 2 pigs so if we lose one, he has a backup piggy *phew* :)
and also, i guess ppl have been telling u this over and over again, but Aidan looks much TALLER & BIGGER in the 1st and 2nd pic! oh my, he really has grown!!!!!
*squealssssssssssssssssssssssssss I found you! I was hooked to "The Rose" too! I forced boy to watch it with me, and he couldn't understand why I like the show! I like Jerry with his curly long hair. He looks androgynous. It's weird, coz I never like this type in the past. *squealssssssssssssssssssssssssss
So if you can come, how long can you stay? So that I can start planning for you your itenary... hehe..
Don't think that i can stay too long though..at most 2-3 days. Paiseh to leave Aidan with my in-laws for too long. But i think that should be sufficient right? Dun plan yet until i confirm with u!!! Better not raise ur hopes to high up first but oh man..i sure hope so!
i like your bath tub, got a hole just to grip the showerhead, so nice....
Hope that your HK trip is confirmed.
If u look closer, it's actually the green box that's creating the bubble..there's this little hole at the base of the box so if aidan pushes the box with the bottom facing up, downwards into the water, the bubbles will be created tru the li' hole. geddit? hehe..
After I'd showed it to Aidan how it was done a while back, he loves to do it on his own and is always so pleased with himself when he sees the bubbles :)
Yeah..i hope that the HK trip will be confirmed too. Will be able to meet Mong and Tracey there :)
and when are you free for mj???
have u started watching it yet at all?
mj ah? This weekend i got SATC Season 6 marathon so cannot..but sunday is fine. next week if i go hk means cannot liao but if cant go ..means ok hehe
p.s. Darn! Wish I could go for the HK 7s too!
p.p.s. I don't geddit. Why do women find androgynous looking men like those Taiwanese actors cute?
Hmm the HK trip not confirmed yet still..crossing fingers..!
Errr..im not into androgynous guys lah but in this show..the one who plays the androgynous lookin one was really funny..and its his role (plus it helps tt the guy is not bad looking) that appeals to pple. I'm sure most women refers hunky beefy lookin men *coff*
yoga is a good exercise for losing weight, lengthening your body/ muscles and chasing away the dreaded m-cramps. I've been doing it once a week (only) during classes, for about 4 mths now, and my last month was pain free, first time ever since I was about 18! plus i've lost approx 5 kgs and feel much healthier! something for you to seriously consider taking up, instead of going on the various diets that are tough to follow through with :D
I'm actually thinkin of startin either pilates or yoga soon. Have gotten the pamplet from my neighbourhood cc and prob plan to start either this or next week. I know diets are usually tough to keep and not v good for the health too esp if i tend to go yoyo on them.
Forgot to include in my previous posting that I use OSIM instant hot bag to soothe my cramps.
<b.Izzit that deserted multistorey carpark above the interchange?</b>
Hrmzzz...the green container that he was using to make bubbles...There are a few more which are of different colors and can be used to stack up into a tower right? =)
Yeah..the green container is part of a stacker toy. How observant of u :)
re the period, i think for ur subsequent period,the pain would get lesser. i remember the 1st time i got mine after 8 months of dissapearance due the breastfeeding. and when i got it, it was 8 times heavier and 8 times more painful. but when the next month came, it return to regular.
When I had my first period after pregnancy which was in Nov last yr, it wasnt that bad nor was it painful..that's why this time round, it really caught me by surprise..esp the cramps. Guess i would be more ready the next time round!
Which other taiwanese series other than this and MG1 is adapted from manga?
I've finished the whole set but I realised they have edited abt 5 episodes off. Felt so cheated.
Most of the 'Ou Xiang Ju' are adapted from Manga. Fom last time's "Peach Girl" by Vanness(F4), 'Marmalade Boy' by Ken Chu(F4) to the recent 'Love Storm' by Vivian Hsu and Zaizai(F4). There are quite a few others acted by less well-known actors that I never follow. Think 'Kui' will be acting in a new up-coming Manga adapted 'Ou Xiang Ju' called 'Er4 Zhuo4 Ju4 Zi1 Wen3'
Yeah..read a little abt Bryan/Brian zheng's new drama. I think he's probably gonna end up playing the 'cool' type and i think he was saying that he wasnt used to it coz he usually plays the 'joker' type.
