Yes, i admit i do cheat with my diet. I eat chips, drink coca cola, pizza, beef, chocolate (cloud9 pang masa), eat manga with lotsa salt. Pero madami din akong tinitiis. Bawal ang pinirito. AnuBaAaAaA?! Pano na yan? Ang sarap pa naman ng piniritong ahot at itlog at hotdog at bacon. Di na nila ako pinapakain nito.. Hay.. After 1month ulit ang check up ko. More than 16 tablets a day. BWISIT! DIET NA TALAGA ITO!
This is my first ipod. It was a gift from my pop for my eighteenth birthday. I was so obsessed about getting one when i was in college. It was my best friend during happy and sad times. Then i got my blue nano chromatic. I should have gotten a pink one. Aww.. I gave my old one to kuya. I asked for it today to see if it still works. Grabe, mukha na siyang basura. So dirty and old.. Aww..
But i miss the color pink. :-( hay..
I ordered new carpet today for all the bedrooms and Ben's office.
They will start on Tues. By then I should also have received the guest bedroom furniture and Ben's office furniture!
Once the carpet is in , and furniture put together and in place I'LL BE DONE!
Well, I'll still have things I'll want to add to the house, but we will be waiting till spring to do those since they are all outside!
Photos will follow carpet and furniture - I promise.
- Ben and I rode our motorcycles south and east through a bit of Amish country. Hills and curves OH MY!
- Finished painting front door "wild currant" - but still to tacky to hang back up.
- Finished painting the halls, the guest bedrooms, the offices, the kitchen, the sun room and entry. (thanks to Pat, Carol and Pete)
- Ordered new office furniture for Ben - I'll be pulling pieces from his office to make mine work better.
- Wired more of the house for TV cable and internet (thanks to Andy and Steve).
- Tomorrow I pick up the last of the family room furniture and talk to the carpet folks about new carpet for Ben's office and all the bedrooms (Ben gets brown, bedrooms get beige)
- Put together one of two side tables for our bedroom (they match patty's lights) and have another for living room
- Have an order holding on Overstock for the "couples" guest bedroom - holding out for the bed frame I want.
- Cleaned up the kitchen from the 4 days of painting and home projects
- Fixed the lighting in the entry, sun room
And when all done, I was able to cook dinner and eat with Benny! I have decided to "master" the electric cooktop before pulling it out and replacing it! I did not burn dinner! Hurray!
So you know, I miss
- My kids
- My girlfriends
- Whole Foods (especially the soaps and salad bar)
- Sushi
- Trader Joes (especially the frozen foods)
- San Francisco (in general)
- The beach (even through I did not get there often)
- My kids (again, because I really really wish they could come visit my new home!)
- And all our CA friends - Too many to list y'all - but you know who you are.
Two years ago i purchased my first handheld game console, a pink Nintendo DS lite. It's one of my best investments ever.
I'm not really an addicted gamer type person, that's my brother. But recently I've noticed that I've been staying up pretty late, till the wee hours in the morning, just to play great games in my DS. Zelda, Kingdom Hearts, and Rune Factory are most addicting. I also play educational games such as Brain Age, my Japanese Coach, and Cross Word DS, which are equally addicting and fun.
Yun lang naman. If someone gifts me the new NDSi I would be very grateful. It even has a facebook reader installed in it. Waa!
GO NINTENDO!
Yes, I am taking time to enjoy the new house.
Right now I am in the family room, on the new leather sectional with Abby on my feet watching TV - drinking a fine chardonnay (from CA) and enjoying the peace and quite this space brings me. Ben is with his friend John in his office (next to the family room) but with the doors shut I can't hear them.
It snowed a bit 2 days ago - Ben and I ran into this room and watched the flakes fall. We hugged and kissed and wished for a bit more to fall, but then it warmed up. It's been sunny and warm since. We would go riding, but too much to do to the house.
Today I brought home carpet samples - we picked and they come to measure on Monday.
Ben and his buddy's spent hours under the house rewiring for TV and interent. I hear the crawl spaces are carpeted and well lit!
I think the most amazing part of our being here is having people come to help us . Ben's family was here for 3 days helping us paint. His friends came today to help wire. We are going to an early thanksgiving at Ben's uncle's home. My mom drops in to see what's new and I stop in to her home and take her with for shopping and lunch. My sis and her husband have helped us set up the washer dryer, moved the freezer down stairs etc
We are nesting and I love it.
So I made a Fat Elvis costume for my friend's kid. It looked kind of awesome. I am expecting a shipment of candy - my tithe, if you will.
etc etc etc
I was supposed to use this moleskine as my journal, but it is too big i couldn't write on it while lying down. (e di naman ako palaging makaupo dahil sa bedsore). So it became a record book of basically everything that happened during the day. Like the time and kind of food i ate, my temperature, blood pressure, medication at kung anu-ano pa. Sino ba naman ang may gustong maalala ang mga ganitong bagay na nakasulat sa acid free paper na tumatagal daw ng isang daang taon? Siguro it will be interesting looking back when i'm older.
