chairs for mom and dad

Though it is still too early to say, but I feel like everything is falling into plan. I just hope it will continue to be this way until we can successfully fulfill our goals. If ever, I can finally do all the things I promised to mom like house; if not renovation, and new furnishings. I’ve been telling her that a long time, yet there are only few that I can do.

Anyway, one of the furnishings I promised are the Muskoka chairs. Both my parents love to spend their time in the yard sipping coffee and chatting especially in early morning and in the afternoon. That’s why they requested for it. I have to admit, I don’t have that much this time that’s why I made a promise and include it in my things to fulfill. When I have enough, I will not forget to buy these chairs for them.

dad now keeps his tools

Being part of the industrial industry, dad has several tools kept in the house like cutting tools, fasteners, bearings and so on. Sometimes he will leave them in the site especially if the work takes a while to finish. But, most of the time he brings them home. However, he has this attitude of “leaving everything to mom.” He let mom take care of everything. But, mom is already too busy taking care of the chores. Oftentimes she forgets the things she kept properly. That’s why dad ends up losing some of his tools even newly bought ones.

After sometime, he realizes that he is wasting his precious supplies just because he leaves everything to mom. So, he learns to keep them by himself, which is better. At least that way, he knows where to find them whenever he needs to use them. If he only does that a long time ago, I’m sure he will not lose anything.

I’m a bit surprised!

I never expected Roxanne will talk about her family plans. We aren’t that close and yet she told me sensitive stuff like her wedding plans and the duration of her stay. I’m a bit surprised when she said she will be staying for two months, while everybody else knows she will stay for a month. I think she really considers me as someone dear to her. She said most of her family member doesn’t know about this plan only me and her supervisor at work whom she asked permission.

Well, I guess she can’t wait to tie the knot with this guy who is with her every day eversince she arrived. I guess I will be receiving baby shower invitations soon after she gets married. Why not? She is already 33; I think that’s about time to have a baby. Career wise, she already proved herself unless she wants to become a millionaire. But, with everything she had, I think there is no need to wait for few more years. Well, that is how I think it is, I’m not sure if we have the same outlook.

suffering from different conditions

A few weeks ago, hubby’s sister has been hospitalized due to hypertension. Like what is said, high blood pressure is a silent killer and most people do not often notice it until the blood pressure is measured. It’s the same thing that happens to her. Good thing she decided to see a doctor after battling with the symptoms the whole day, the situation could have been worse if she did not.

But, with those entire tests done, the doctors also found she has thyroid imbalance. Based on what hubby describes she has hyperthyroidism, which is much less common than hypothyroidism. With regard to this, she really needs to consult a thyroid doctor Austin. Her thyroid problems need to be address properly with a treatment plan based on her specific symptoms and test results. It’s the way to resolve her symptoms of thyroid imbalance.

It’s sad to hear she has to attend to a lot of conditions. But, she really needs to take good care of her health because she has two little boys who really need her by their side.

just happen to know it

Just like the first time, Romina is once again sending out baby announcements to her friends. Actually, we aren’t that close, we are just acquaintance so I won’t be expecting one of those invitations to come to my hands. I just happen to know the information since she posted a picture of the invitation itself in facebook. But, I won’t be posting the photo here for some matter I won’t discuss.

Anyway, I don’t want to belittle her creativity, but it sure could use a lot of improvements. But, if she wants both convenience and style, then she could check out Paper Culture’s baby announcements. I’ve seen a number of invitation cards that feature modern design on premium 100% recycled paper. They sure create the perfect way to capture the excitement of having a new family member.

better than not have anything for them

Gosh, two of my siblings will celebrate their birthday this month, one on the 19th and the other on the 27th. But, my flight back home is on the 17th, which is really unfortunate. It’s not that their birthday slips off my mind; it’s just the end of my vacation. I can’t stretch my stay here anymore because it would be too costly to reschedule flights and I will face huge amount of workload.

I’m not sure if giving gifts would suffice my absence. But, it’s better than not have anything for them. Well, I already know what to give them both. I researched the whole night yesterday before coming up with a decision. For the one celebrating on the 27th, I will give him ps2 games. While the one on the 19th, I will give him a digital camera.

I specifically choose one of those casio cameras digital because of the kind of work he has. He is a roving teller that goes around the country to fill-in vacant tellering jobs. Having a digital camera with him wherever he goes, offers him the possibilities to snap pictures any time.

a little bored today

I’m a little bored today, which makes me wonder why; probably because I get used to doing a lot of outdoor activities last week. I’m already used to going out and doing something fun which makes staying inside the house boring. But, I can’t do that now because everybody is preoccupied with work except for me and hubby who are on vacation. The quick fix for this, brownie pops at cherry moon farms.

The tasty, fun and popular brownie pops are the simplest way to make my day. The abundance of colors and styles can make anybody smile. Shared with the rest of the family coupled with few talks, then my day is complete. Brownie pops are chocolate brownies that are secured to a lollipop stick then hand dipped and decorated to delicious perfection; which is unique and makes them even more enjoyable to eat. I’ll just have to shut my eyes and not think of my diet, besides it’s the perfect treat for the bored people like me.
