BEDROOM FURNITURE

One of the things that I want to change here in our house is our bedroom furniture. We been doing a lot of renovation in the house but we didn’t touch anything in our bedroom. Before I came here in Canada, hubby show me his bedroom and I really like the color blue since blue is my favourite color. I asked him not to change the color and even the furniture. So he didn’t change the color and all the furniture is still the same furniture since I arrived here. Our bedroom sets are still in good shape so just for now, we didn’t change anything. But after we finished renovating our living room, hubby is thinking of repainting the bedroom since the master’s bedroom is just next to our living room. He wants to match the color to the color of our living room. I told him that if he wants to repaint the bedroom, he has to wait until I can find the bedroom set that that I want. I started looking online and I found the bedroom furniture that I really want to have. I show it to my hubby right away so that he can pick up the color that will match the bedroom furniture and in our living room at the same time.

I’m so thankful to Max Bedroom Furniture because it’s there where I found the bedroom furniture that I really want and not only that they also have lots of discount bedroom furniture that is very affordable with lots of choices of style.

How I wish I have a baby now so that I can buy the kids furniture that I saw at Max Bedroom Furniture. I really love it and I like the style and so affordable.

BUSINESS IN PHILIPPINES

I been thinking of putting up a business in Philippines. I have lots of ideas of what kind of business I would have but it's not that easy to choice. To tell you frankly, I don't have knowledge on how to run a business. It's funny, eh? Anyway, that's what I wanted to do when I will be in Philippines for my vacation. I was thinking of piggery. Mom had one before and she stop it because we, the childrens, want her to stop because she already sick. I know how my mom loves to take care the pigs. I was very tempted to put back that piggery and I will just hire somebody to take care of the pigs and mom will be the one to manage the business.

I really don't know if this is a good idea but just now, I very willing to have this kind of business. We will see when I will be there:-)

GIFTS FOR MY FAMILY

I already started shopping some stuffs for my family in Philippines as their "pasalubong". But still I'm not finish buying all the gifts. This afternoon, we been to the pharmacy and I bought 10 packs of dove soap (pack of 4). It is on sale this weekend $1.39 a pack of 4. This is really a good deal, eh? I know they love dove soap so I bought a lot and I will go back tomorrow because there is a limit per costumer.

One box is already ready to send to Philippines and we will prepare the other box next week. I want to send two boxes 3rd week of March so that the boxes will arrive in Bohol first before I will arrive. So I have to buy all the stuff before we will close the box. I hope I can do it this week.

WEDDING ANNIVERSARY

Time fly too fast. I thought that I just married last year but it’s not. Few more days to go and we will celebrate our 6th year wedding anniversary. But with this 6 years of my married life, I never had a regret in fact, I’m so thankful because I have a good, understanding, loving, faithful, loyal and very supporting husband. I’m so happy with my life with him and being a wife makes me more matured. I love my life now and so happy and I hope that I still have the same happiness until the end of our life.

Hubby does everything to make me happy. He always gives me the things that he thinks it makes me happy. He knows what I want and even if there is no occasion, he always gives me a gift. In return, I use to give him something that he likes but only if there is occasion. I can’t afford to give him all the things he wants always. Last valentine’s day, I gave him a gift certificate for massage and a leather globes. He was so happy with the certificate because it’s been long that he wants to have a real body massage. And now, I am thinking of what to give to him on our wedding anniversary. He already has all the accessories of his camera and in his computer. I know he still have lots of things he will need in his workshop. I was thinking of buying him some tools last Christmas but the workshop is all upside down. So I decided not to buy any. But just recently, he did a big cleaning in his workshop and he told me that he needs to buy some router bits. So I guess this will be a good gift for him since the workshop is already clean. I already check the metal drill bits and composite milling in the internet and I found a very good price and good quality. I’m sure hubby will be happy with my gifts.

Few weeks ago, I talked with my sister-in-law in Philippines. She told me that she’s pregnant for their 3rd child. Oh my, they are very fast. Anyway, the youngest one is already 2 years old and 4 months. I thought that two kids are enough for them but they still want another one and she told me that this will be the last. Anyway, if that’s makes them happy, then go for it. They already had 1 boy and 1 girl and she just told me a while ago that they will have another baby boy. I’m so happy for them.

IM SICK

I know it's been long that I didn't update all my blogs. It's not because I didn't care of it but it's because I'm sick. It's already more than a week now that I suffering from colds and cough. At first, I didn't mind it. I still go for work and didn't take any pills for colds and cough. 3 days ago, it's getting worst especially on that time that I worked in the storage to check all the products for our inventory. It was boldy cold there and I don't have good cloth for that. I didn't know that it was that cold there. Yesterday, I started my work at 7 in the morning and I went hope at 9 in the morning. I lost my voice and I feel dizzy. I had a regret why I didn't go to the hospital the night before. Hubby kepts on telling me to go to the hospital but I said no. I just want to rest and I thought I will be okey in the next day. I told my manager on what i feel and she told me to go home and rest. I called my hubby to pick me up because I'm afraid to drive back home because I felt dizzy. He was in the mall the other mall and I called many times on his cellfone but there was no answer. So I have no choice, I just drive slowly back home and I rest. When he hears his fone beeping for the message, he found out that there was many misscall from me and from our landline fone. He call me back and I was already home so he came back home quickly as he can and he bring me to the hospital right away. The doctor found out that I have a severe colds and cough and severe Laryngitis. She recommend me to take a week of rest and syrup for my cough and a pill to bring back my voice. And the worst thing is, the syrup for my cough can make me sleep and the pills for my laryngitis can make me awake and give more appetite. I have to take them together. Can you imagine taking syrup that make you sleep and pills that makes you awake? I really can't imagine. Last night was the horrible night I ever had. I feel sleepy but I can't sleep. And the result is, I felt dizzy every time I move and I feel to vomite. I feel pity to hubby because he was not able to sleep also because of me. What I did is, I didn't follow the instruction of the doctor. I took the pills this morning and I will take the syrup tonight. I think this is the best for me he he he. I will be the doctor of myself.

Just now, I just stayed home and I feel bad that I don't have salary for a week. I will try to go back to work monday next week. I think I will be okey on that day.

This is my update for now...I will just give you some update later.

TEN COMMANDMENTS

My friend Nova share this to me. Thank you so much nov for sharing this...it's really appreciated and I really like it.

Please spend time to scroll down and take time to read every line, and ask God what does He want to tell you.
The 10 Commandments are not a multiple choice.

Your mind is like a parachute...it functions only when open..
One thing you can give and still keep...is your word.
You lie the loudest when you lie to yourself you lack the courage to start, you have already finished. One thing you can't recycle is wasted time. Ideas won't work unless ' You' do. The happiness of your life depends on the quality of your thoughts.
The heaviest thing you can carry is a grudge.
Be kinder than necessary because everyone you meet is fighting some kind of battle.'A sharp tongue can cut your own throat.

If you want your dreams to come true, you mustn't oversleep.
Of all the things you wear, your expression is the most importan.
The best vitamin for making friends..... B1.
The pursuit of happiness is the chase of a lifetime! It is never too late to become what you might have been.
Life is too short to wake up with regrets. So love the people who treat you right. Forget about the one's who don't. Believe everything happens for a reason. If you get a second chance, grab it with both hands. If if changes your life, let it. Nobody said life would be easy, they just promised it would be worth it.
Friends are like balloons, once you let them go, you might not get them back. Sometimes we get so busy with our own lives and problems, that we may not even notice that we've let them fly away. Sometimes we are so caught up in who's right and who's wrong that we for get what's right or wrong. Sometimes we just don't realize what real friendship means until it is too late. I don't want to let that happen so I'm gonna tie you to my heart so I never lose you.

Now, it's my time to share this to my friends Nita, Geraldine, Lulu, and Ronin

TRIP TO OHIO

I am planning a trip to Columbus (Ohio) next October 2009, in order to have a one week stay in the City during the All American Quarter Horse Congress, which is the World's Largest Single-Breed Horse Show held in Columbus by the Ohio Quarter Horse Association.

This will be my third visit to the Congress and I have learn, when I went there for the first time, that we need to have a reservation quite a few months in advance. For me to make sure of a safe, comfortable and “Near to the Site” place to stay, I will look at the Columbus Oh hotels. They offer an excellent choice of Hotels, all of good quality.

Usually getting to Columbus from North thru I71 and knowing that following a 30 hours drive from Quebec City it is better to stop before arriving the site, I make my reservation at the Super 8 Hotel, on E Dublin-Granville Rd, which is a minute drive off the highway.

The All American Quarter Horse Congress show receives more than 17,000 horse show entries and will house more than 8,500 registered American Quarter Horses during its three-week schedule. The Congress attracts more than 650,000 people to the Columbus area and for that reason there is so much to see that I will spend most of my time at the Congress Site.

If time will ever permit on the evening, my hubby and I will enjoy traveling to Polaris Towne Center and Polaris Fashion Place. Polaris Towne Center features many national chains, such as Barnes & Noble, Lowe's, JoAnn Etc., OfficeMax and Old Navy, just to name a few

A one of a kind place to visit is the Columbus Museum of Arts, known for featuring impressionists and postimpressionists. The Columbus Museum of Art is a bit on the small side for a large city but is well done and worth a visit.

He left friday night and I joined him there saturday, the next day.I was working last friday so I was not able to to with him.

As usual, we had sing-a-long and disco and of course drinking wine and baileys is always present. Too bad, I only took one glass of wine because I still have to drive back home. I don't want to catch by the police driving with alcohol in my body. It's already midnight when I went home and I slept 2am because I was watching TAYONG DALAWA, SAAN DARATING ANG UMAGA and LUNA MYSTIKA. I was really tired and I woke up 5:30am because I have to prepare all my things to bring in the chalet and my little surprise to my hubby. Then I drove 8:00am to the chalet. I was really tired when I get there but it worth because we spent the valentines in the very peaceful place.

What about you? I'm sure you had a great time last valentines day.

MISSION IN AFGHANISTAN

Our friend will be leaving for Afghanistan for a one year mission. He’s been doing lots of mission already in Europe, Africa and other places but it’s his first time in Afghanistan. He’s not scared at all in fact he is very excited on this mission but his wife is very scared and it’s normal. I really understand her. She didn’t know if her husband will come alive or dead. Well, everything goes with the luck. I’m just wishing them good luck in their mission.

Hubby and I are planning to give him something before he will leave. There will be a farewell party I guess a week before he will leave. We are thinking of giving him spec ops brand because we know that he will like it. In fact, we already found one and we have to talk to his wife before buying so that we will not buy the same thing because his wife is thinking of buying spec ops brand too.

I NEED TO HAVE A NEW MOUSE

It's been two weeks now that I'm using my laptop without mouse. Honestly, I really don't like it. It's really hard when you do copy paste and most of the time, I'm doing multitasking everytime I open my computer. And the worst is I can’t work in Photoshop. Hubby’s friend was asking me to make a website for his business and I already started it but I was not able to finish it because my mouse is broken and I’m using Photoshop for the banner or header of the website. We shopped last night and oh my, it’s too expensive. The cheapest one worth $39.99 and it’s too much for me. I want the wireless one because I’m working anywhere and I don’t like to have lots of cable around. Hubby paid 19.99 in my old mouse at best buy in Seattle. It was on sale and now I can’t find the same price of that mouse. This afternoon, we will continue shopping for my computer mouse and if we can’t find a good price, I will just buy the $39.99. I have no choice.

LATINA FRIEND

When I took my French course 4 years ago, majority of my classmates were Latin. They come from different countries that speak Spanish. At first I felt annoyed because they always spoke Spanish and I can’t talk with them because I don’t understand what were they talking about. But as time goes on, I started to understand their language because they had patience in teaching me and with other student that don’t speak Spanish. I was learning two languages at the same time, French and Spanish. I made good friends with 3 couples and even after the course, we still have good communication. We used to go out together or visit here in our house and have dinner together. On that time, I practice my Spanish with them and they practice their French with my hubby. But now, I can’t take to them often because one move to Calgary and the other couple move to Granby and the other one stayed here but I lost communication with the one that stayed here. The other 2 couples we still have communication but only emails because they both busy with their work. They work very hard because they both house and they need to have more income to pay their mortgage. It’s really hard to contact them because we don’t have the same available time. One time we talked in the phone and I told them how I missed them and how I miss talking Spanish. They introduce me to Latina chat so that I can practice my Spanish. I tried it and they are right. I found few good friends online and they are so nice to teach me Spanish and talk with me in their language. Now I started to talk Spanish with them too.

FRIDAY NIGHT IS THE BEST!

Ha ha ha it really sound silly. It's my first time saying that friday night is the best. If you're wondering why I said this, it's because I'm off from work in the next day. Since I start working, I don't have time in my laptop. Sometimes I just check my email and then go to bed after work. I even stop watching my favorite show in the tv. I want to spend time relaxing doing nothing but tonight, I spend more time in my lappy. I miss it! I can sleep late tonight and wake up late tomorrow he he he.

Tomorrow we are planning to go back to the winter festival and this time, we will go at night so that we can take picture with the lights of the ice castle.

Well, I guess I have to stop now and I have to do bloghopping.

HAVE A NICE WEEKEND TO ALL!

ONLINE FRIENDS

Before I arrive here in Canada, I check with my hubby if he knew somebody from Asia particularly in the country where I came from. He said that he has a co-worker that married with a Filipina too. I was so happy knowing that I have a Filipina neighbour here. When I arrived here I met with this Filipina and we became friend. But her time is so limited until now because she’s working and she doesn’t have much time to go out with me or even talk in the telephone. I felt so lonely on that time especially that hubby was working and I left here in the house alone. Good thing that I have computer that I considered as my best friend. I started surfing on where I can chat with Asian people. I joined the Asian chat room and I was so happy because I found lots of friends online that I can talk to everytime I’m alone in the house. I found few good friends that we keep on contacting each other until now and I even met some of them in person. I’m so thankful that I found them here online.

VERY COLD OUT HERE

We had a very nice weather last week. It was not so cold and just a few flakes of snow. As you see in my previous post, we been to the winter festival and we been to the ski. I was thinking to go back to the winter festival to take pictures of the ice sculpture tomorrow after work because they just started when we were there, but I don't think I will go unless the temperature will go up. Oppssssss I forgot, I have to start 9am tomorrow and finish 5pm that means I can't go to the festival. Anyway, the festival will still go on until the 3rd week of Febuary so I still have time to go there. I hope that the weather will cooperate.

Just now, we have -20 celcius. We just been outside for a walk and it really cold. I really don't have any idea what's the forecast for tomorrow. I don't want to check he he he.

PURSE COLLECTION

It’s always been my dreams to have a collection of handbags or purse. But because I was still a student on that time, I can’t afford to buy them. My allowance was not enough to buy even just one purse but I was saving the money if I have extra from my allowance in the week. From the money I saved, I was able to buy my first purse. That’s what I did before; I have to save for my wants. My hubby use to buy me handbags and purses as a surprise gift. Some I like but some I don’t because it’s not me who chose it, it’s my hubby and we don’t have the same taste (men don’t have interest in handbags he he he). Now that I have salary, I have to start collecting handbags. And to start my collection, I found a nice roca wear purse. But this time, I show it to my hubby to give him an idea for my valentine’s gift. I hope this will be his gift for me or else, I will be the one to buy it.

FIRST SALARY

Yes! I've got my first salary today. I didn't know when will be the salary but when I check my account a while ago, I found out that I have a deposit then I check it right away and it was from my 3 days of work. I started wednesday last week and I got my 3 days salary today. I'm so happy because I money now to buy the valentines gift for my hubby. I don't think this job is for long term because just now, they are having inventory and I'm one of them doing it. We are doing the inventory then after they will do a sticker for the new price and we have to put the price as soon as the sticker is ready. The store is so big and we are not yet done in the men's section. I guess I will have few more weeks or months to go. And it's very good for me because I will be leaving to Philippines this June so I don't need to resign and in this way, I can get unemployment if they will lay me off because I'm working fulltime so I guess I will have enough hours for unemployment. And in this way, I can buy lots of gifts for my family:-)

MY FRIEND’S DREAM HOUSE

I have this friend from Louisiana that if we talk in the phone, we always talk about homes or houses. We both love to decorate our house and do some design. Just now, she have small house with only 1 bedroom. She and her husband decided to have a bigger house because they will have their first baby soon. She will give birth this coming September this year. She wants to have a room for her baby and another room for her as her workshop. She’s a good painter so she wants to have her own workshop where she can paint without any disturbance. She also wants to have a big backyard where her baby can play in the summer. I gave her some ideas also for her house and she loves my idea. Because we are far from each other, I can’t help her in making the plan. She told me that she and her husband are already looking at Schumacher Homes. She was very happy because Schumacher Homes can build her custom dream house.

WORKING GIRL

If you remember in my previous post that I said that I had a mix feeling of excitement and scared, well i guess it's the right time now to tell you what is this all about. January 23 this year, hubby and I went to Jeans Depot to check if they have a good quality of winter globes for hubby and unfortunately, hubby don't like the one they have so we went out the store. On our way out, we saw a paper in the door saying that they are looking for personel so I asked the manager if I can apply. She asked me to leave my name and phone number, so I gave my name and phone number to here. After 2 days, that was Sunday, the owner call me in the morning. He asked me if I can work 7am to 3pm monday to friday. Then I said yes right away. Though it's quite soon but it's okey because I will finish soon too and the good thing is, I don't work in the weekend. I was so happy with this job. I started last Jan 27 and so far, everything goes fine. All I did is put the price in all the items. The store where I work is very close to where I live. It only takes 7 mins by car to go there.

Well, this is it. I'm so sorry if I can't visit your blogs. I will try to do blog hopping this weekend.

WINTER FESTIVAL 2009 IN QUEBEC

This is what I'm waiting for. It's the winter festival here in Quebec. We been there yesterday but I was very disappointed. I been there in the morning because we have to go to Stoneham for the skiing. I was very tranquille in the morning that's why I didn't enjoy. And the worst is the international ice sculpture compitition will start in the afternoon. So we were not able to take pictures and that's all I want there.



Well, though I was disappointed but I still enjoy at the same time because we did snow rafting and snow sliding. We also watched the dog show, the first dog show in the snow in all over Canada. But for sure, we will go back there in the festival this friday but this time, it will be in the night because I want to take picture of the ice castle with all the lights. I will for sure post here the photo of the festival next week.





Here are some of the photos that we took yesterday.
