Shopping Spree
…is what I’m wishing for right now. It is quite a challenge to save up when you get these emails with coupon codes. I often get discounts from my online shopping because of these coupons. I’m still sad for missing out on the Circuit City closing sale.I love good deals and it makes me feel better to pay less. Yes, I’m thrifty. My dad would probably say that its because of my Ilocano blood. If you don’t know what Ilocano means, better check it out here . It wasn’t that hard right? Hehe. Anyway, I’m currently on a shopping freeze. I think I haven’t shopped in a long time anyway. I’m itching to get some scrapbook supplies from one of my favorite store and they just gave me $5 discount on shipping. It has a deadline so I’m just hopelessly watching the clock tick away. Oh well, that’s just how life is.
My Weekend So Far
Due to lack of gaming console such as playstation 3, I have made myself contented on playing online games. Right now, I have been playing a lot of facebook games. The husband knows when I’m busy plowing or harvesting on my farm. Hehe. Last night though, I had to stop my games and enjoyed my friday night with the Husband. It was movie night and we watched the terrifying movie on DVD. Tonight, we will probably watch another one but perhaps an oldie. I want some Tim Burton movies or should I say Johnny Depp movies. Hehe. Everything is quite normal (aka slow) here in nowhere land. I think I will sneak in some creative projects today too.
Moving House
When I was new here in Florida, I was at lost every time I see motorhomes. In the Philippines, it is often used by folks in the entertainment industry for location shooting. I don’t know any regular person who owns one there. Here, they are everywhere. I guess since this is such a big state, there is quite a long drive. I don’t mind traveling in one of those and going from one state to another. I think that would be a real fun road trip compared to a boring airplane ride. We can just stock up on food and drinks and we are good to go. It is one of those things I imagine that me and the Husband would do in the future. I would love to travel with my family on a nice big trailer and it will have a good motorhome insurance of course. I will stop day dreaming now, it is almost bed time.
Love and Friendship

A former co-worker and a good friend will be getting married this coming November. I’m so happy for them. They have been together for more than 5 years now. They have probably already sent out the wedding invitations. Unfortunately, I won’t be able to attend their wedding because I won’t be traveling back to the Philippines any time soon. I know it will be an elegant wedding though. I saw their wedding site and I can see the venue, cake and all other stuff that they have chosen for their wedding. I guess its this time that women in my batch are already starting to settle down. I and two of my friends got married last year. One of us (not me.hehe) gave birth this year. I hope soon we can meetup and catch up. There are just so many changes happening in our lives. I miss going out and chatting with them.
Our Dear Esmeralda
I’m talking about our emerald green car. She was a pre-owned car when the husband bought her. Her previous owner who is an old lady requested to keep her name. She sold Esmeralda because she’s just not using the car that much. She often drives “Pete” – her other vehicle. I can say that Esmeralda has served as well and has been constantly in use. She needs a bit of makeover though. We already replaced her tires but there are still a lot more things that need attention. We need some car accessories and parts for the A/C and controls. All in all, she is an excellent car and still a beauty.
WW-Traffic Jam

For more wordless wednesday, go here.
Don’t Give Up
That’s what I keep on telling myself now. Although it seems to be far fetched right now, I’m still dreaming about losing weight. I will never give up as long as I’m alive. I will exercise later as soon as I get my chores done. Just thinking about all the clothes that I can wear is enough to get me motivated today. I’m also adding fruits on our grocery list. I haven’t had any in a long time. I want to get into eating more fruits and veggies again over meat. My stomach has been spoiled lately, eating lots of meat. There’s always clinicallix when all else fails but I still need to have discipline when it comes to diet and exercise. Hopefully, we can get a treadmill so I can exercise inside the house. I have several exercise videos but they can get boring if you are doing the same routine over and over.
