6.5 hours

that's how long we left the gals at home...

rachelle was not feeling too well... a little cough... lethargic... but basically... i jus think that she was jus looking for an excuse to stay home...

the gals always preferred to stay home... so... hubby and i decided to go church... and then shopping after the service...

we really had a great time... not that we do not like having the gals with us... but it was jus different without them... we could walk longer distances... without having to think of a place to rest... jus so that the gals do not begin to whine...

walked all the way from harajuku... to omotesando... then walked on to shibuya... had spicy ramen served in a hot stone bowl... not very smart in this weather... but loved it anyway... think i'd go again...

bought myself a jacket... something i could wear in autumn... happy cos... it's not the usual black or grey... or even beige... it was a dull green... nicely fitted at the waist...... loved it..! =)

though hubby and i were having fun... we kept calling back... maybe about 3 times... to check if the gals and eaten... and also to check if rachelle was feeling alright...

happy and proud to note that rachelle had prepared lunch... not only for themselves... but also their 2 korean friends... she warmed up the leftover curry rice from last night's dinner... warmed a couple of 'an pan' pau... and also some 糯米饭...

if not for the fact that we specifically said 'no cooking'... i think she would have cooked..! =)

i'm really thankful for today... assured me that the gals are capable of taking care of themselves... and also for the precious time spent with hubby...

though we enjoyed ourselves... all 4 of us... i am not ready to turn this into a regular thing... don't think it's healthy for the family... once in a while... it's precious... but when done to often... it can be detrimental to family life...
