I'm glad the sun is out today. I thought it's not going to show up at all. It started really gray and cloudy. I am thinking about planting some flowers at our business site later when it's not going to rain. SO, I guess this is a good time to really do it as I promised hubby few days ago. I just have to make sure my little buddy is going to take his nap on our way there so no one will bug me on my task.
Anyhow, it should be my job to beautify the place. The guys given the project were too apprehensive. I think they think it's no man's job to plant flowers. They're too shy to be seen planting. LOL! I'll just take planting, watering and walking to and from the big flower pots as
best fat burners. I will be happy to that! Would you?
I am so anxious for the birthday presents I purchased out of the J. Crew gift card my friend gifted me earlier. My birthday is on the 22nd and yet I got something in advance even a month ahead from hubby's family. Well, I got other stuff so the rest I had to put on charge for hubby to take care of since he was also thinking what present to give me. Hahaha. Smart, eh? I told him he doesn't have to get me something as I ordered other stuff besides what I've really been eyeing for.
The gift card was a great help after all. It funded almost half of everything I got. In order to take advantage of free shipping, I got a couple other things I could used, thus, hubby's present for me. I get to choose whatever I want to get on my birthday anyway so why leave hub the hassle. I made it easier for him by getting the present myself. LOL!
Since I got married, I am no longer a big fan of MTV. I used to watch it a lot if not, I would listen to my favorite FM station. We don’t even own an audio system at all as we couldn’t see any use of it this time. My son does listen to his children’s music through the DVD/CD player though.
I guess we do have the player but not the big fancy sound boxes which would need an audio rack and one of those really nice and epic
tv stands for a new flat screen television as well. We don’t have enough room in our place too that’s why we prefer to get minimalist of whatever we have to setup. It’s better that way.
I have mentioned in my other blog that I should go back to my pilates routine if don't want to end up reading
diet pill reviews when my weight takes a toll on me sooner or later. No, I am not carrying an extra luggage yet. I do hope the size I am wearing on clothes will remain forever. I don't seem to be going against that direction though so I will worry later. But living a healthy active life would be ideal and I don't wanna end up complaining later on which happens a lot to most people. Only some of us do realize how important an exercise is or a diet when you have started early on and not when you are in the middle of a struggle to lose weight. Lesson learned: DO it now before it's late!
Our little one's speech skill is really surprising us each new day. He does a good job imitating us as well as the favorite cartoon characters he likes to watch. And who said that watching TV is not healthy and not contributing to a child's development? Well, I have to admit he should be more of an active toddler by going outside to play. He does get to play with me even inside the house and I have to find a way of getting a play date. He will definitely be delighted as he gets really excited when he sees other kids in church or at a carnival. Even at the grocery when we go shopping he gets really happy seeing other kids there with their parents getting some stuff for the family. Oh, well I will work on it!
Since we moved here in our place, we stopped using our
area rugs. Our floor is carpeted. For that reason, we don't need the rugs so we had to put them in storage for now until we get a nicer place with hardwood flooring. Someday we will have a house with nice floor. As for the moment this works for us because of our business. We will settle in a home that we will treasure for forever and that which we will feel bad about leaving even for work or shopping. LOL! I definitely can't wait for that time to come. Patience is a virtue so be it. Wait, wait and wait.
I really wanted a new car. Something bigger than a sedan will be nice. I know that a new car means new obligations like
car insurance, property tax (here in our place anyway) and most of all, more money for the price tag. Well, I need more room for my little fellow. I don't mean room for him to play his slide or run around because that would be one heck of a car then. LOL! I just want a compact SUV or something similar. It's really a must for a family that travels down south too at least every winter. Oh well, we will see this year. I hope that can happen.
Last week was great. My friend and her DD were here for a short vacay in our place. We had some good times together. It was a good chance for us to really enjoy each other's company by going to the mall, playground, and grocery. Our kids got the chance to play together an interact. Anyway, it was quite a treat for us since we don't see each other very often due to the distance. If only we live close to each other we would find it easy to visit one another. I would love to drive to her place if only I am brave enough to go through highways and heavy traffic cities. We live at least 3-hour drive apart by the way.
