The little one and I played with the webcam yesterday and today. These are only 2 of the pics we took and they're hilarious. Now I know how I'll look like if I decide to chow down the candies that we're supposed to hand out today. Maybe I shouldn't, eh?

Pet Beds?

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Earlier today I called my family back home. They're having a long weekend there because of All Saint's Day which is observed on the first of November. Usually they're all there on days like this one that's why I take the time to give them a call and possibly talk to all of them. I called a day earlier though so I was only able to talk to some but it's okay. I took the chance to also ask them what they want for Christmas and my niece is asking for a couple of pet beds . I sent one a few years ago because I saw one online which was really cheap. I'm sure they won't be that cheap now. I told her I'll try but no promises. I didn't even know they have more pets now so I was surprised when she requested for beds for them. Anyway, I'm supposed to call again around 9 PM my time but I wasn't able to. We went to the mall to take the little one trick or treat then ate out so we got back a bit late. By the time I got done doing w...

Happy Halloween!

Shoes here, there, and everywhere. Like I mentioned in my other posts, I am not an impulsive shopper...even when it comes to shoes. With that being said, I have to admit, I also like shoes just like every other woman out there. I guess what they say that it's part of our DNA is true. As early as now, I can tell that the little one likes shoes. I can only hope that she likes looking at them more than buying them. It's fine if she wants to buy more than me as long as she can afford them, right? Anyway, when I opened my email today I saw some shoebuy coupons in there. What will a girl do if she sees shoes & coupons in the same line? Look for the best shoes to buy of course. Well, I haven't bought any...yet. I just looked around the site to see if there's a pair that wil catch my eye. Nope...there's more than one pair that caught my eye. I have to bookmark a few and will try to sleep on it. Maybe tomorrow wneh I wake I'd be able to choose just a pair...or two....

Butter Pecan Ice Cream

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ My favorite. Not good. I just had it. Not good. I'm the only that likes this flavor so I'm usually the one who eats most of it. Again. Not good. At all. I think I should visit http://www.mosteffectivedietpill.org/ and start reading on the different weight loss supplements available. Or maybe I can just stop writing 'butter pecan ice cream' on the grocery list so the husband doesn't get any when he goes grocery shopping. Funny because he said next time he buys ice cream he's going to pick what he likes. I guess he finally realized I've only been listing my favorite ice cream flavor. Ha! I thought he'll never notice. LOL. Seriously I really need to lay easy on some sweets starting, maybe, now. Aside from my aim of losing some pounds here and there, I also need to watch my sugar intake. I have the dreaded diabetes in my genes so I should be careful in having too much sweet. What to do??? LOL....

Me Today...

That's exactly how I'm feeling and what I'm doing. My eyelids are so heavy I can hardly keep them open. After maybe a couple of months, I'm sitting here in the back porch typing away. The weather is just too perfect to waste indoors so I decided to stay out here in our very much neglected back porch. Everything was dusty when I first came out so I had to do a little dusting before the little and I could settle in any of the lounge chairs. I tried to do some work while she carved her pumpkin. She's all done and I'm still here not done with what I wanted to do. Oh well...maybe tomorrow again. Hopefully the weather will be as good as the one we're having today.

No Stopping It..

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ A few days ago, the little one lost a tooth. To my surprise [and delight, maybe?], she expected the toothfairy to show up to give her some coins. That made me feel that she's still somehow a baby. The next day though, she called herself a 'young lady'. Ugh! It didn't crush me or anything like that but kinda' took me back to reality. Yes, she's growing up [fast] right before our eyes and there's no stopping it. A lot of times she still wants to be treated like a baby but for the most part, she prefers to be treated like a 'young lady'. The changes in her are not only emotional or psychological. The physical changes are probably the most drastic and of course the most obvious. With all the physical changes in her, she has started asking questions like 'what is acne?' or ' what is blackhead '? because she's been seeing little pimples as well as blackheads on her nose and around her nose. I don't remembe...
