OMG. Hollywood.

Yep. That’s where I go to most of the time when I get so sleepy at work. All I read about is Britney’s latest paparazzi-escapade. I feel sorry for her though - she must be really depressed without her kids. Apprarently, drug rehabs werent able to help her so she might have some mental problems. Bipolar is really a strong indication of her mood swings. I hope she gets help soon.

I love looking at photos X17 too. Any Hollywood celebrity sites I can look up as well?

Appetizer
How many times per day do you usually laugh?
OMG. I laugh every hour.

What do your sunglasses look like?
I dont have one. I always lose it every year during summer.

Salad
You win a free trip to anywhere on your continent, but you have to travel by train. Where do you go?
Europe. Countries are closer together.

Main Course
Name one thing you consider a great quality about living in your town/city.
Honestly, I dont have anything good to say right now :(.
I guess its location. I can get to Makati, QC and the south easier. Transport is available.

If the sky could be another color, what color do you think would look best?

TV talk.

My Dad has been thinking of getting a plasma TV for themselves. I have been requesting him to just give their TV to the kids so they can have more exclusivity with watching Sesame Street (and I can watch other TV programs!) so he has been thinking about it. There have been nice plasma lift stands that come with package offers for it at the malls. I hope they can have some money for it so I can have another TV for the kids :)

Hi.

This month has been crazy!! CRAZY!!! CRAZZZZZYYYY!!! I tell you. I cant stress that enough.

I just got home from Amadeo. March cant come soon enough.

And I need to work on some work duties online. Then work, really “work” later. Then it’s my best friend’s wedding, out of town, the day after. I now have such a deep appreciation and sincere gratefulness for people who really took time to attend to our wedding, especially my attendants who took care of their own and didnt give me a headache!! I swear!!

Ok. Im rambling. Back to work :)

Undies Talk.

Ladies, spill.

Do you keep some fine lingerie for yourself and your husband for special occasions? I have to admit I have a boring wardrobe, and that extends to my undergarments as well. I need to spice it up a bit. If you have any suggestions for plus-sized women like me, Ill greatly appreciate it :D.

I hope to lose around 20 lbs by March. And that’s when I can finally be able to entertain any sexy garments! :)

Watch Talk

Im pretty excited for next month. Not only will I be celebrating my birthday, it also marks my 5th year at work. Our company gives everyone who reaches that tenure a Kenneth Cole watch with our name engraved. Granted, it is no Cartier with its value, but hey, who wouldnt appreciate a nice watch just by staying with the company right? Now if only they can raise our pay as well!

Scrap Talk.

I finished something monumental yesterday.

Here is the Shutterfly Cover. I used Mary Fran’s awesome stuff - The Comfort and Joy Collection. You can click on the image to see the whole project.

Numerology: Personal Year.

Stumbled across this site while I was blurfing (blogging and surfing) around :)

My Personal Number: 2 + 1 + 6 = 9
Year: 2 + 0 + 0 + 8 = 10 = 1 + 0 = 1

9 + 1 = 10 = 1

Personal Number: 1

Personal Year 1. . . .A New Beginning In Your Life
The current year is the beginning of a new nine year cycle for you. It holds the promise of being an exciting new adventure, with life taking on new challenges that pave the way for the next cycle of nine years in your life. This is a time to clarify your goals and it is a time to act on them. Hard work may be necessary to get a new venture moving. Your physical strength will be up during this year, perhaps higher than it has been for some time, as you have some special needs for this extra energy. If you are unable or unwilling to answer the call to change and make the move in your life the appears necessary now, your prospects may be delayed until the next cycle begins in nine years. Because of this, you feel like an adventure, a major change in your life, something new. New goals should be clearly set and worked toward, as this is really a new beginning of a nine year cycle and it is best not to dwell on the past at this time. This will be fairly easy for you to do because most of the problems and disappointments of the past will tend to disappear, leaving the way open for these new challenges. This is a great time; use it to its full advantage.

Try it out :)

Summer = Pools.

There is a pool being built near the place where my parents are staying. Matthew and Martha saw it and they got excited already, especially Matthew, since he knows summer is about to start. It means he can go swimming all the time he wants! I know Robin, a digital scrapbooker and owner of a scrapbooking site I work for, had a swimming pool and jacuzzi installed in her Arizona home last year. She employed the oldest phoenix pool builders to make their summer hangout. Cameo Pools is the oldest pool builder company in Mesa Arizona. They have been building pools since 1977 and pride themselves for making pools with the best value.

Didn’t You Know?

That you were supposed to start the New Year in February? :)

It has taken me this long to recover from the holidays and this long to keep all chores and duties clear - it is still NOT done (far from it even) but I guess this year will have the same similiarities as last - insanely busy.

Let me recover some more and see if I can swing it by next week.

A quick update on our week(end).

Our best househelp to date needed to stop working, she has diabetes and last week, her blood sugar shot up to 375 and her blood pressure was 180/110. Her condition isnt ideal for working anymore.

Martha is staying with my parents again. Given the situation we have right now, it is highly probable that she will stay there until our move already :(. I could commute everyday, I really can but we have a schooler that needs to finish school. *sigh* The more kids you have the complicated it gets - and they have a wide age gap. So you mommies, plan your pregnancies together. They grow up together, go to school together! :P (In short, you guys need to get preggo this year! Haha!).

We are still scheduling Matthew’s operation. We want it to be done with this month so he can swim by summer. (He will have his heart broken if he finds out he can’t). He is an independent boy already. He gets by himself at the house for a few hours with food and more food (we live in a compound with relatives of course) until we get back from work. Most of the time Edil and I take turns sneaking out of the office earlier ;). We are living the American Life. *sigh*.

We do one load of laundry, iron, I cook in batches and do everything by ourselves already. We dont hire weekly help as Edil decided for us to learn the hard way. If not for Martha being a toddler, we could have gotten by easily. It is hard work, it takes discipline but it is doable.

Edil does the laundry! Yes, he does! I got lucky with him on that area. He also has gotten back to playing basketball once a week and lifting weights twice a week so he is beefing up again (Oh lala! LOL). Somebody suggested he take supplements with creatine ethyl ester to define and pump his muscles more but he declined. He just wants to get back into shape and not have bulges in the wrong places. Now if he quits smoking, Ill fall in love with him all over again, hahaha!

Hair Disaster.

This is the reason why I dont dare cut even Martha’s hair.
I cut my bangs today because I dont have any.
It made me look like a six year old.
A chubby six-year old.

Save for a pimple in the nose.
So I look like a teen about to hit puberty.

*sigh*

We are off later to look for Ogio golf bags. One of the doctors Edil is assigned with wants one. Edil is actually learning how to golf too!

Road to Wellness.

So there.

I am trying to move more and get my behind off the computer chair more. I know I just need to burn more calories so I can lose some weight. When I went to the gym, the one that has been most effective for me was when I used the StairMaster a lot. I might get into exercising on the elliptical than the treadmill, since it keeps your muscle more toned as well.

Any thought?
I have been dancing everyday which equals to around four songs. I cannot believe how out of shape I am. I am literally panting with exhaustion after the first song.

Monday Schmonday.

I got a ton of scrapping done for my Christmas Album but unfortunately, havent done much for the house. I need to turn this computer off or my husband will surely cut my hands off. LOL.

Be back later!
