Checking off the list

This morning started with Bodypump at the gym. Today there were only two of us in the class so it was almost like having a personal training session. The instructor is really good and she pushes us enough but doesn't yell or scream. For me the killer is always squats but I know that they are so good for my butt and my legs!

From the gym I drove home, had a shower and some breakfast and then walked over to KLCC. I booked afternoon tea at Harrod's for the girls and I on Wednesday then walked to the train. I got off at Pasar Seni and made my way to the Central Market to get two caricatures done for girls who are leaving netball. Nik, the caricature guy tried to charge me 300 each but in the end I got both for 150 - much more reasonable.

I walked over to the bookstore and picked up a couple of frames for the caricatures and then had a look around Peter Hoe's - not much there though. I made my way up to the bead stores to get Kate some beads. She wanted some Swarovski crystals and some pearls. I bought enough so that they gave me wholesale price (50% off).

I went around to the next bead store and bought some more crystals for her - this time the cheap Chinese type. With my jobs done in Chinatown, I got back on the train and headed to Masjid Jamek (1 stop) and had lunch at O'Briens before walking to Little India. There I bought some more small containers for my beads, a traditional Malay hat and buttons for Dad's outfit and some fabric to have some tailored shirts made for Ross' birthday. I bought some beautiful fabric and I am sure they will make really nice shirts - I can't wait to see them!

I was exhausted by now and was carrying multiple bags so I went back to the train and caught it to KLCC. I popped into the bookstore and grabbed a couple of books as well as a few things from Watson's before walking home. By this time it was 5.30 and I had been on the go for 6 hours.

Ross came home about 6.45 and we drove to Pavilion for dinner at Tony Roma's. We had a great meal and then headed home and pretty much straight to bed. It had been a successful day and I ticked many things off my list - still plenty more to go though.
