Me? Jogging? Yah!!

Started the day off meeting Joyce at church for the 3rd service after her children's church duties in the morning. Joyce slept through most of the message and only heard bits and pices of it. Poor baby!! Been up since 6 a.m....no wonder.

After churchie, we went to Macs for lunch.Ordered 20 piece chicken McNuggets,fries and an iced Milo. *burp*
Then came up with the brilliant plan to go to East Coast Park for jogging!! We managed to con the security guy at the chalet that we were only going in 'to drop off some things' and changed into our running gear. I think I shoulda sent Joyce back to church to listen to the message again!! :P
We then drove out to the other car park nearby where parking was free, not before waving cheerfully at the security guy who we had pulled the wool over his eyes.
We then cut through the chalets to the jogging tracks. We walked for a bit..jogged at a snails pace for about 300 metres...walked somemore...walked...ran one click.....walked..then...err....walked! Walked back...stopped by for a drink at Marine Cove....then...walked...all the way back to the chalets...to our car. All in all a rather subdued, low-impact walk (I dare not use the term 'jog' to describe what we did).

I was hoping to kinda 'accidentally' run into Lisa at East Coast since I knew she was gonna be there in the afternoon. Woulda been suicidal with Joyce in attendance but you only live once .:P

After that we drove to Bedok North for dinner. Ate some really nice char quo tiao, satay and fish soup noodles. Worth another visit.

Then drove back to Millenia Walk to collect my car. I had left my car there as the parking is cheap ($2.50) and I saw little sense in both of us driving. So I got a chance to drive Joyce's Nissan March for the first time today. Was fun and went better than expected. You know how it is when you drive a car for the first time; you gotta quickly learn the controls and the 'feel' of the car. Luckily for me the March and the Sunny have very similiar configurations and handling so I managed to get by without anything untoward occurring. The March being automatic transmission type had slower pick up and acceleration. I think my experience driving the Pajero Mini at work kinda prepared me for the March in a way.

It is really nice to be back on good terms with Joyce again. I even think we may be able to reconcile our differences this time. It seems that Joyce and I have learnt alot from being without each other. Hopefully history does not repeat itself if we do get back together again.  But I will insist that we both sit down and talk things over first and make things clear this time. We left too many things unsaid the last time. Not very healthy for 2 people to not be honest with one another about how they feel or to have unrealistic expectations of one another. If Hasli and Faezah can do it, why not us?

A good and fruitful weekend with 2 lovely ladies.
