a date with the husband

due to lousy management of leave-taking, hubbi was left with a miserable 4 days leave for rest of the year!
the leave is to be reserved for a staycation in oct and a possible year-end short trip.
was feeling quite bah as i was hoping for us to take leave together to have some couple time but it seems quite hard to do so.

in the end, dear dear went to cancel 1 day leave in sept (was supposed meant to be a rest day for him when we come back from perth, hehe) and took leave yesterday with me! :)
辛苦你了!
still, i was glad to have a normal lunch-movie date with him without the kiddos. :P

morning was a slow, relaxed one.
we dropped the elder son at his childcare as usual at 8+am.
then its time to bring yr over to ubi for his usual 3D2N stay at my mum's place.
here's a photo of my handsome boy (still cheeky despite being sick):

nah, give you the remote. if you dont take it, i'll drool all over you!
check out my long string of saliva!!

the cheeky boy is able to sit for awhile without support recently.
and he's able to sort of semi crawl-lurge forward on all fours.
more advanced than gor gor who only learn to sit nearer to 8m and started crawling at 9m old!

then its off to the gym for me!
body combat - punch, kick, chop!
dragging my aching body, i met up with hubbi at paragon for our lunch.
lunch was at cova at 1st floor.
wanted hubbi to try their risotto with cod fish (which is heavenly) but sadly, its not on their menu for yesterday.

still, we had a good lunch trying out their set lunch (comes with soup/main/desserts).
hubbi tried their duck confit while i had penna with braised chicken.
their potato leek soup was good with generous sprinkle of bacons and dessert selection is good too.


i love their cheese stick and cracker! you can request for 2nd helpings if im not wrong but i didnt cos i will be too full from everything if i do so!

after lunch, off to gv europa at vivo to catch the movie of the month - the girl with the dragon tattoo!
this swedish show is a blast!
the show is quite simple - a journalist and a hacker come together to investigate a disappearance case 40 years ago.
but its such a thriller as the lead duo delved deeper and digged out more secrets of a family clan.
and the female lead, lisbert, kicks ass!
shes one tough chick who look like she can and did grab the men by the balls. haha.
show those nasty men who treat women like trash some color! totally awesome.
the characters were well developed, the show was exciting as they get closer to the truth and the twist at the end is quite a good one.
it totally deserves its 4stars review!

i urged all to catch it asap as its a foreign film without much publicity and ONLY showing @ GV, i guess its running time in cinema is limited.
still, must warn that its R21 and there are some scenes in it that even i found it painful to watch.
expect violence, nudity and some sick scenes.
the show is a good 2.5hrs but its worth the time definitely.

after the show, its already 6+pm!
hubbi and i dashed off to fetch yz and called it a day liao.
home sweet home to spend quality time with the son.
if only we could have such weekdays more often... wishful thinking. @_@
