Quotable Quote:

Over dinner, Matthew was being his inquisitive, talkative self. We were talking about synonyms and antonyms (the topic in his Language subject that day) and he asked, “What is immature?”

Immature: childish, isip-bata.

Matthew: “Ah! Parang si Daddy! Immature!” (“Ah! Like Daddy! Immature!”)

I could have died laughing (LOL).

Of course, Edil was red in the face and laughing too :)

BOO.

I hate changing seasons. It means erratic weather, dust and pollen scattered everywhere, which means asthma attacks for the kids, colds every week, and my allergic rhinitis flaring up. This time the colds have hit me bad. I guess I havent been taking care of myself the past few weeks. My head really hurts and for the first time I feel like really hot inside (like my fever has not broken in). So Im overdosing with Vitamin C and will probably sleep in (and not wake up at 4AM). Too bad the kids’ sinuses are acting up – we all have stuffy noses. If only Matthew doesn’t need to go to school, I would have holed them up in Amadeo. I might ask my Mom to get Martha for a week since she has sipon again. I dont want her to have an attack so I want to prevent it from happening. So far, it is controlled with nebulization but as long as she is not taken from the source of allergy (which I believe is her case), she really won’t get well. An aunt told me to get my kids to an allergologist to find out the cause, once and for all. I might need to schedule a one week leave from the office then. She told me it’s going to be done every day.

Meanwhile, I need to get better myself.

Want Dogs?

I am outnumbered in the family. Edil and Matthew have long wanted dogs to keep as pets. If it weren’t for the lack of space in our house, we would have had one a long time ago. And we are not talking about cute, small dogs here. We are talking about big dogs. Since I have been deathly scared of dogs because I was bitten when I was a kid, I loved watching Beethoven the movie.

Marimar Love :)

So I was tagged by Yen and she wanted to see how my desktop looks like :)

IMG_8768 copy

I wasn’t able to a screenshot since I’m at the office. I don’t want to share my desktop here since it is packed with shortcuts to excel files. LOL. As you can see, our wallpaper is Marimar :D . LOL. I love watching the show (it just got moved to a later timeslot so I need to adjust my schedule as well, hahaha). Martha loves it too. The icons are shortcuts to various files, folders and programs between me, Edil and Matthew. We are a very busy family dependent too much on the PC for recreation (sad but true, LOL).

So you can guess why I would love to have my own S.O.O.N!

Pesky Little Ipis.

IMG_8789This was Martha’s cute face before yesterday. Yesterday, Martha woke up with her left eye lid swollen – it was bitten by cockroach! Dang, &*(&)!*#+&#@(&$@% p*ny*t*ng ipis yan! It was not really bothering her so much because she was her usual bubbly self. So I just made bilin to have hot compress on the bite when she is sleeping. When I came home, her left eye lid was almost swollen shut! ARGH! No worries, Martha was still active. So I was inspecting it, looking for an opening (for the whatever liquid to go out) and I found none. So mission for the week is to be able to get the swelling down (my mom will never let me hear the end of this!) and then we might get her to go to Amadeo this weekend (my Dad’s having his birthday next week) and then we are going to gun those pesky cockroaches down, LOL. I have a picture of her with her eye swollen but Im at the office. Might have them up later.

Who wants a MAC book?

ME!

My aunt is now in touch with a MAC distributor here in Manila and we are in business! If anyone you know wants a MAC, please tell them to email me (aggie.aviso AT yahoo). He also offers iPods and moleskins. And they are based in Singapore. Price is cheaper, of course (and no, I won’t be making patong! Im trying to help my aunt sell so maybe I can one for Christmas, LOL).

Na-excite ako sa MAC. Baka sakali swertehin sa Pasko :D .

And today, Im sick. Blech. More stories to come. I’ve got a tag from Yen to answer first :)

Look who now competes with us..
