End of the Lunar Year
We celebrated New Year's Eve with both of our families today. We had dim sum with MJNL's family for lunch, visited her grandma in the afternoon, and then had dinner with my family afterward. We wanted to do some cleaning of the apartment, and we did do some in the short amount of time that were were home, but it does seem like an impossible mission when we're always away from home.
Oh, so yes, we were away from home all weekend.
We spent Friday night with Growly and co. First we watched Mission: Impossible - Ghost Protocol, which turned out to be a very entertaining movie, even if it became difficult to suspend disbelief in the end. One major detraction (for me) is the obvious use of CGI during many of the effects shots, but it was still fun to watch.
The four of us met up with one of Growly's friends to have dessert at Spin Dessert Cafe across the street, and we ended up showing many of our wedding photos and videos and did not return home until early the next day.
That was unfortunate since we have been trying to catch up on sleep since we returned from our trip. Staying up until 2am is not a good way to do that, especially since we had to get up not too late for dim sum the next day.
So we had dim sum with MJNL's co-workers on Saturday, and then a bank appointment, a visit to my parents' place (to drop off a lot of stuff), and then a visit to MJNL's parents' place were we had dinner (and to drop off more stuff). By the time we got home, we were dead tired, and it was also late. It would have been nice to sleep in more this morning, but as I mentioned before, we were celebrating New Year's Eve with our families..
