Back to being a lady of leisure

This morning I drove out to netball - the first one for the year. This was the first time I had driven out there without stopping at Julia's place first so I ended up being super early as I wasn't sure how long it would take me from home. No-one else was there yet but after about 10 minutes Colleen arrived. We sat out on the court while she pumped up the ball and it started to rain; heavy enough for us to head to the car. Another girl arrived and the rain had eased off and eventually 7 of us were standing on the court.

Just as we started chatting and asking everyone how their break was, we looked over at the bowling green and saw it was pissing down - but completely dry on the netball court next to it where we were standing. 3 seconds later the heavens opened and we were sent sprinting for our cars with the promise to catch up next week.

So I drove home and met up with Ann and Dad who had been out for a walk. About 11, I dropped them up at the KL Tower so they could go on the Hop On, Hop Off bus and I headed to the Pavillion.

I went to the gym for the first time in months. I only did 25 minutes on the cross-trainer and some stretching but it was enough to break a sweat and to get the body moving again. It felt good. I had a shower and went to Go Sushi for a quick bite to eat before heading to Kanebo for a facial.

As part of my birthday present last year, Ross had bought me a package of facials and massages. They included this really expensive facial with lots of fancy machines. This was the one I was having today. It was really relaxing and the best part was that there was no extraction. They also did a great shoulder and decolletage massage as well as a face massage. I was only semi-conscious for most of it.

After the facial I headed home and sat down on the couch to recover from all my pampering. The two cats decided to plonk on me and we spent an hour cuddled up together watching The Biggest Loser Asia. Dad and Ann came home about 4 and recapped their day. Dad had bought a guitar which he was pretty happy with. They had a good time on the bus but didn't get off as they had seen everything last time.

About 6.30 Ross came home and we got ready to go out for dinner. We met Phil and Julia downstairs and walked over to the Bavarian Bierhaus for dinner. As you can see, Dad enjoyed the Hoegaarden! It was a really nice night and good to catch up with friends again the new year. We walked home about 10.30 and headed straight to bed.
