Simon is my Mr Wonderful

Valentines Day... usually we take it or leave it... Not that special, too commercial and why are even the flowers more ugly than on any other day of the year! This morning though Simon woke me with a hand made 3D card with a pregnant heart that made me cry (happy tears) really was the most lovely thing :) so we proceeded to spend the day together. Not doing silly lovey dovey things but doing things we wanted to do.

First we went to see Body Worlds. If you ahve a chance to see it when it reaches your home go. Its amazing. Plasticinated bodies that have been donated to science. Romantic huh :)

Next we went to a nursury and bought plants (4 huge ones to block out the neighbours balcony even though as yet noone even lives there!). I almost even bought the frangipani I have wanted for so long but we want to see how the others survive in the 17th floor wind first.

Next lunch in the sun o the balcony. (and a tad sunburned too). A dip in the windy pool, a laze in the sun with a magazine and newspaper.... a little work, the shops, then off walking to East Coast park.

How busy it was down there... tents everywhere for a bit of Valentines privacy!@#$% amongst all the BBQing families no doubt too! We soon got to the array of restaurants but by not thinking and heading out late ( it was already 9pm) we couldn't get a seat. We walked back home and found an awesome Chinese Seafood restaurant only metres from our house. MMMMM

Home to watch "Band of Brothers" then the peanut and I crashed as usual!

What a lovely day!
