1. Hubby making sure that he wrapped his big hand around my tiny fist so that it would stay warm while we walked to the bday girl's house when it was -15'C outside. *warm smile*
2. Finding some people who were interested in practising their English, not people who felt forced to talk to me.
3. Getting a chance to enjoy several one-on-one conversations. I LOVE one-on-one conversations!!!
4. Even though hubby was drunk, he still remembered to offer buy me some pepper steak when we walked home as we passed by a resto. Mmmmm...
5. Seeing mother-in-law walking without her walking sticks. WHOOPPPEEE!!! Progress is always good!!! She's going back to the doctor for an X-ray sometime this week. I'm gonna SMS her sometime to find out the prognosis.
6. Mother-in-law approaching me when I sat next to the fireplace. She knew my feet were cold (even though I said nothing to her), so she took out some thicker socks from the cabinet. BLESS HER!!! Her action really touched me. I'm SO LUCKY to have such a caring mother-in-law. Even though we can't communicate well yet, but she's SO loving!!!!!!!!!!
7. Eating dark chocolate that melted in the mouth. They were VERY delicioussssssss...
8. Making mince meat/reindeer/cheese puff pastry and hearing hubby say that it was so good he he he he he...
