Trivial Spews

I am too tempted to whine about how sluggish I feel but let me try to start this on a positive note, then let’s see where it takes me. We spent our weekend at Cape Cod (thanks to Glo, for the discovery) and stayed at a lovely bed & breakfast in Chatham. I was hoping we could do a little bit of traveling before August, and as much as I am up for trekking the Himalayas, that’s probably stretching it a little bit considering my condition, so I gladly took this chance to get out of town even for a short while.

It was a pretty relaxing weekend with a touch of an English town charm - quaint shops, friendly people, good food. I daresay, perhaps we got so used to the hustle and bustle of everyday life, that being in a town where most shops and stores close as early 5-7pm is quite unnerving. All’s well that ends well. We returned on Monday after doing a really quick stop in Boston, and here I am. There are a couple of photo updates here (yes, I’m maintaining another one for, well, let’s just say possibilities) and a few photos on the flickr site, so feel free to hop on over if you have nothing beter to do.

It’s J’s birthday today and the most that I’ve done so far is get him a cake. I’m not one to forget dates, and lest you think I’m a bad wife, I’ll have you know his gift was given way in advance. I’m feeling major love for Peking Duck, Flounder and Sio Mai, so we’re probably going to order take out from this authentic Chinese place (funny how we always say authentic, but who’s to say it really is? taste, as we all know is relative) have some family over and finish it off with the Pistachio Ganache cake. For that alone, I know I’m going to Wifey Heaven.

Lastly, thanks to everyone who sent Mother’s Day wishes. I never got around to wishing and thanking all of you since we took off Saturday morning, but I hope everyone had a grand time with your mommies and kiddies.

Well, will you look at this, a couple hundred words of trivial spews. I hope I didn’t bore you to tears.

we ate too damned fast, i forgot to take out the camera until i took out the cake! :D

belated happy birthday, j! :) pistachio ganache, nagutom naman ako.

uy itong period na ito of your pregnancy ang the best time for you na mag-travel! kaya take as many (safe) trips as you like na dahil when little J comes along, changing area ng restrooms ang pinakamadalas mong mapapasyalan, hehehe.

bhmd, abby! :) *muah*


thanks mee! the doc gave me until the 28th week, so that’s about three more weeks! sana maka-larga pa kahit konti! :)

belated happy birthday j! larga ng larga basta ingat lang habang 2 pa lang ang bagahe mo! pag me bebe, puro bagahe nya ang iimpake mo, at mas triple pa.. :)

Hi Abby! I find it always helps to vent (even about, as you said, “trivial” things) - don’t really know if it’s a woman thing - but I do feel a wee bit better after doing so :)

Hang in there, girl… just a few more months and your little “bun” will soon pop out of the oven!

Take care and God bless.

Abby, I hope your feeling much better now. It is so difficult to be pregnant but never mind at least it is just a few more months before you fully enjoy your little bundle of joy.

By the way, Meeya is right, enjoy travelling while can now because once your baby comes out it’s going to be frequent travelling to the changing area for you and hubby J. Ooops… belated happy birthday nga pala to J.

Hi Abby - when are you due?

Oooh happy happy birthday to J!

And those pictures are so nice ha. The room looks so comfy!

Thanks everyone!
