Whew! Post marathon early in the morning! I wasn’t able to work on it last night so I am making up for my absence. Need to do as much as I can because of this…

and this…

A few more weeks and I’ll get my hands on those loots.

Photos are grabbed from Faye’s flickr® but not everybody could see her stream now so if you wanna reward yourself from working hard, check out Faye’s blog. Shopping again? My Coach bag is late birthday gift, the DKNY watch is a late Holiday gift and the Lacoste beach bag is a late Valentine gift.hahaha. Is that enough justification?

Since we’re done with shopping for our clothes late last year, it’s accessories this time. Of course I don’t wanna go out and look like a person from the cave – without an eye for fashion like wearing floral capri and stipes top or checkered bermuda shorts and stripes top (both in dark colors that doesn’t complement with each other) with printed bag in bold colors. Ewww! Where did the basic in dressing up that is taught in Home Economics during 5th or 6th grade go? Regardless if we don’t have lots of money, even if we don’t have insurances like disability insurance and the like, as long as I and Ace does not look like a WALKING RUG (imagine the rug made of scrap cloth in different colors), we’re fine. It’s looking good and feeling good that matters regardless if it’s branded or brand-less (though I prefer those with brands now because of its quality and it is not overly mass produced).

Despite of the handful of tasks that I should finish yesterday, we still went to my sister’s place late afternoon and arrived home around 10PM…safe and sound. Thanks God for the safe drive. I am sure Ace would complain I am not an easy passenger because I kept on looking at the odometer and when I feel we’re going fast and the odometer registers we’re at around 40kph, I reprimand him to slow down. I am not used at riding road bike in the city where there’s a lot of wreckless and undisciplined drivers so I am just nervous. The entire trip, I kept on uttering a prayer to keep us safe.LOL. Maybe if we drive more often I will learn to relax.

When we arrived there, my sister’s hand painted personalized gifts such as pillows and scrolls she’s making are all over their living area. Her items will be sold in Crafts Corner in Gaisano Mall and that explains why my laptop sleeve isn’t done yet. I was planning to take a photo of the pillows and decorative scrolls while I was holding Eman and as soon as my hands are free, I forgot to take out the camera. I’ll take photos next time or maybe later because we’re planning to go there so we could take a bath. We don’t have water here since last night (when we arrived) until 4PM today that I was so pissed because water district isn’t efficient (as always) in disseminating the information to the affected concessionaires. They posted the announcement in their website and maybe had their public information officer guested in the local morning show where not everyone with TV were able to watch. They should have public service ads running during primetime when everybody’s hooked in front of the TV. I still have lots to do today but I might push it aside so we could go to my sister’s place and have a refreshing bath. We don’t have water hence we cannot take a bath and cook.

My sister Carol is selling her handcrafted baby sling and cloth diapers for months and she has served a lot of happy customers already. That made her very busy that I cannot ask her to sew window curtains and pillow cases for me because I don’t know how to sew. I wanna learn actually and I am planning to borrow her sewing machine months ago. But since she started her small business, the sewing machine has been very busy that I just cannot borrow it for a week – enough for me to learn the basics of sewing.

Now she’s into another sewing project that would be very useful for laptops, notebooks and netbooks owners. She’s now figuring out how to sew sleeves! She asked me one time how many I would order from her because she’ll start making one. I only need one, actually because I am not going out bringing with me my laptop. Hope the laptop sleeve will be out in the market soon so I can brag about it in my blogs.LOL

Ace is bugging me to get a new phone. My phone is still working but it is far outdated! We’re actually laughing at the fact that there’s a Nokia 2003 model (I don’t even know what particular model it is) inside my Satchy when we go out. I don’t have issues in using my phone before but lately I realized my phone is really outdated and I need a new one because it’s not that presentable now. I’m torn between an iPhone and Nokia (I can’t even remember it but it costs like a Blackberry) because I want something that is internet ready so I can still go online even if I am not at home. Not only that it is internet reay. I want a phone that goes with an unlimited access to the internet for free! Is there something like that in here? With the scheduled daily power interruption lately, I really wish I have now my dream cellphone so I can browse the net or even blog even if it’s brownout or a Bell internet errr Bell mobile internet that I could plug in the laptop so I could still go online. I just wish!

Sometimes I wish Ace is home all-the-time. It’s crazy being alone whole day…with just the cat and the dogs to accompany me. It’s been so quiet! Thanks goodness the TV has been repaired (after 2 months of waiting) at least there’s something that could keep me company when I wanted to stay away from the computer. I even came to a point of considering to adopt a baby and Ace is amenable with it. We’re not just lucky because the DSWD adoption help desk in SM isn’t there anymore last weekend. Sometimes I silently pray that somebody will leave a baby in our gate and we will surely accept it.

Anyway, sometimes Ace wishes he’s working from home too. He might be tired of being a corporate slave (oh well, I am still a corporate slave but not in the office setting). I told him to start blogging as his sideline just to have a feel of the online world. Who knows he might find an online job in the long run. Now we’re in the dilemma of thinking for a domain name so he could also start blogging. It’s been weeks since we’re brainstorming for a nice and catchy domain name. I want a domain that speaks of itself, I mean with just the domain name, one would know what the site is all about like www.jointsupplementreviews.net. Hope we could think of a nice name soon before Ace will lost his interest in blogging.
