Need some rest

After returning home about 2am this morning, woke up at about 830am. It is bright very early here...so the day is very long. After waking up, made ham and cheese sandwich for breakfast. Then, went to visit the "Medal of Honor Park" near our place. It is a huge area with tennis centre and stadium. Not the kind of park I expect it to be. After that, went to Asian Market to buy the usual asian vegetables. I bought red spinach and xiao bai cai. Also bought the chinese/asian pear (the yellow big kind).

After that, went home to cook lunch. I was not feeling too well-had a headache and sorethroat. So I cooked spinach soup with dried anchovies added. Also cooked chicken stew with carrots and potatoes. Lunch was nice as I missed eating home cooked food after few days in Tennessee without it.

Tonight, supposed to go Bob's place for dinner with the small group from church, but we will not be going as I needed some rest. And moreover, they will be eating burgers and BBQ, so I felt my body could not take any of that anymore. So, CT had to call to let them know. After lunch, went to Walmart with Jamie and Steve. They needed to do grocery shopping, while I needed to buy grip for my tennis racquet. Of course, at the same time, I bought usual grocery stuff.

Then, went to "Best Buy" to buy a music CD- "Il Divo". I wrote before in my blog about how I came to know this group. They are recommended by Simon Cowell in the Oprah Show. They sang first time in front of America and I was touched by their singing. It is like an emotional rush. If you like songs by Josh Groban, that kind of easy listening contemporary classical music, you will like this CD by Il Divo.Check out their website if you are interested. http://www.ildivo.com/site.php

After that, went home to prepare cooking and watch my chinese VCD shows. Reheated my left overs from lunch and added celery to my chicken stew. Had baked beans with sausages as well and opened up a can of fish with preserved veggies. My fav can fish. So, today was a relaxing day, recuperating from the long journey from Tennessee.
