What do you get your Dad?

I appreciate the guest post, Jamie Guy

What do you get your dad who has ‘everything?’ I firmly believe that older people with money are the absolute worst to shop for because they go out and buy for themselves anything they want! I literally went through a list of twenty things that I thought my dad might want. Each one was met with either: “I already have that,” or “I don’t need one of those because I have…” After mulling over this in frustration, I decided to get my dad a subscription to all of his favorite movie channels. I went online and researched a ton of different options, and came up with a great one through clear internet bundle. It was the first time that my dad actually liked his gift! He said that he would have never though of it, and was excited to try it out. One birthday down, who knows how many more times I’ll have to go through this? I guess I have to be grateful for the ‘win’ I got with this gift and not think about the next one!

Docs etc..

We went to the Doctor this morning even though it was rainy we took the kids with us LOL.. I am so glad it rained and I am so glad it stopped by the time Joey is out from school. What else did I do today? oh okay I remember now I iron clothes from last week hahaha.. Yep I can't believe this house has no ending laundry and still has so many clothes that needs to be iron. I am gonna be busy again tomorrow. I am here eating cracklet. I always eat snacks before bed time that's why I gain so much weight now LOL..

One project done

I love our couch and we don't want it to go bad. The zipper of the two couch are broken. Hubby always asked me to replace the zipper but I don't have time to do it plus I don't have the materials. The foam came out and my kids tries to mess with the foam and we are afraid if they ruins it. I always go to the store and find a long zipper but couldn't find one.

 So one evening, we went to the fabric store and got lucky they have a long zipper that we wanted. So, when I get home I sewed it. My husband was really happy when I got done and thank me for doing it. So, I am glad it's done now I need to do something in our house that needs to be fix.

youTube downloader

This website bestvideodownloader.com is really cool. It allows you to download videos from youTube to your MAC and PC and it is free.  I am wondering if it works on ipod touch or ipad. I am going to try this later. Anyway, there are lots of videos from youTube that I love and I want to download video from youtube to my pc. And this best video downloader is what I am looking for.

Went to pinoy resto

I met Melyn and her kids today at pinoy resto. I didn't know Myra and one of her friend ate there too and surprised me LOL.. So when I got there I didn't really eat because I ate lunch already I just went there to see Melyn..I ordered Bilo bilo nalang LOL cause I love it. Then I went to Filtex store and bought few snacks and a sack of rice..

And Wow Filipiniana is improving now it was fun cause there was one man singing there and it's always nice to eat dinner while listening to the music.. They put speakers at the corners of the resto..

Friends visit

Wednesday my friends visited me here in our house. We cooked sinigang soup, adobong squid, we grilled fish, pork meats and dessert. It was delicious! I don't know when our next get together again. Well, I love it when my friends will come over rather that me going somewhere. This year I am going to pass all of my friends party invitation I am gonna spend time with my family for now and if they want to hang out at our house then that would would be good as long as we are in good condition..

Savings...

I sent money today using xoom and I saved 5.99 for the service fee. Really Cool! I wish I have known it before. I just really don't like paying 5.99 for the service fee everymonth when I send money in Philippines to my family.. Now, I hope I can always save 5.99 every month..

Thank goodness for mom

My mom knew I was really stressed about bringing the baby home and she was such a huge help. As a baby gift, she and dad had gotten me an alarm from security systems springfieldwhich made me feel a lot better about being at home by myself and when I gave birth she surprised me with the news that she was going to stay and help the whole first week. It was such a relief to have her by my side and know that someone was going to be able to help me get through the most trying time of my life! Being a mom is definitely the hardest thing I’ve ever done and although it’s super tough, it’s been as rewarding as everyone said it was. I’ll get through it and I’m sure before I even know it my daughter is going to be sixteen years old and going out on dates! I wish I could keep her a little baby forever, but until then, I’m going to hold her as much as possible.

Happy New Year

To all! I wish for a good health, peace, prosperity and happines for this year 2012. Hope and pray that God will continue to shower blessings to all of us. May God Bless us all!!!!
