September would be nice.

It looks like hubby’s business trip is finally pushing through soon. I just hope and pray that it will NOT be in October especially 2nd week, when we are booked to go to Hongkong and Macau with his entire family.

He said that if that happens, he will book for Orlando vacations next year to make it up for me and our daughter. Nah! I still prefer that he comes with us this October. Although a business trip in October is way better than him not around in December for Christmas. Hmmm… Let me rephrase that. I just hope and pray that it will NOT be in October or December. :)

this was what happened

Yesterday, hubby and I were both ready to go to the wedding an hour earlier before the car coding scheme was to be lifted. When it was time to leave, the car wouldn’t start. It turned out that it was time to buy a new car battery. The van was there the battery of which, we could use to charge ours. The problem was the “series” to connect them was with my in-laws who were still out.

An hour later, they arrived. To make the long story short, we were able to leave the house. But when we arrived at EDSA Shangrila hotel, we asked where the Rizal ballroom is. Guess what? That ballroom is located at the Makati Shangrila hotel!!! :lol:

Expectedly, hubby was blaming me for not double-checking the invites. I have this habit of selective reading and listening. Hubby didn’t want to go to the wedding anymore, not only because we were already late but he was also worried that the car might not start again when it’s time to go home.

So hubby decided we just go out on a dinner date at Chili’s. Well, the night turned out fine, I guess. ;)

act now

Most moms, in my opinion, have some sort of sideline job to help augment the family budget. Maintaining the family’s financial health can be tricky. Sometimes you loan for money just to cover another debt. And then, before you know it, you are deep in debt.

I saw the Debt Free, LCC site which can help you get out of debt. They have debt elimination and wealth building system. Whether you have credit card, mortgage, auto or student loans debt, this company can build a plan to help you pay off your debt in few years.

When you think of a home, you think of harmony, peace and quiet. You’d want it to be relaxing and to have less clutter. Think green.

using your DSLR to make HD movies

Hubby and I have agreed we could buy a new DSLR this December. So I was browsing for pictures of the model that we want. I wanted to know the appropriate prime lens so I texted my sister’s fiancee. He then replied with “Have you seen the new Nikon D90?” And so I googled and find out that you can make movies out of the D90, HD! WOW!!! Ultimate!

In simple English for everyone else, unlike camcorders, you can throw backgrounds way out of focus for movies shot on the D90.” - Ken Rockwell.

Definitely my kind of camera! I checked its price and showed hubby. He then teasingly sang “Pangarap ka na lang ba?” (Will you be just a dream?)

Ok, settled then. No D90 for us.

hubby’s upcoming birthday

Hubby’s birthday is fast approaching. I’m still thinking of a nice gift for him. If only we both have the luxury of time, I’ll opt to have a week-long vacation with him. A romantic getaway with the husband. But since we are both busy, I might just spend the day with him, give him a nice massage while wearing a nice Shirley of Hollywood lingerie. Hahaha. Don’t underestimate the power of a lingerie. ;)

But seriously, we might have another get-together dinner at home. And knowing hubby, he’d be happy to have his relatives (especially his cousins) and friends to come over and get drunk! So now, my problem again, like with the other parties at home, is what to include in the menu. Oh well, I still have 4 weeks to think about it. :)

TGIF

Woohoo, finally it’s Friday. I’m looking forward to be away from work for 2 days. I’m longing for the day that I’d quit my day job, to be stress-free.

But you see, I also kind of dread to be a SAHM (stay-at-home-mom) simply because I feel there’s too much expectation. People expect you to be great in cooking, baking, gardening and home management, which I think I am not. Although I’m not sure, I haven’t tried. :)

It excites me to think that I’d be waking up in the morning without worrying about any issues raised by anybody. Well, I guess, unless raised by my husband or daughter. Haha. That I’d go by the day spending time with my kid/s (yes, kids. I’d like to get pregnant again) and have my ME time when my kid/s are in school or taking their afternoon nap.

On the other hand, I’d like to enrol for a second degree, an online university degree perhaps in case I quit the job. I just want to empower myself. :)

I wonder when this day will come. All I know is, dreams do come true. ;)

plans and twittering

1. Finish work. I’ve started work late today because I knew that I need to be working till tomorrow morning. Geez!
2. Rest. And feel the fresh bed sheets that have gotten cold from the “bed” weather.
3. Party. Uhm, not a drink-like-crazy party but a very conservative reunion with hubby’s relatives. Now I better think of something to wear besides shorts. ;)
4. Scrap. Got some kits that haven’t been used. Still in need of pictures to scrap. I should go out of the house more often. Tsk, tsk. (Too bad I missed going to our team outing in Fontana today. Still not allowed to go on long drives.)

-*-*-*-*-*-

I honestly think I’ve been twittering too much. Why? ‘Coz I can’t think of anything to write today that I haven’t twitted. (Is there such a word? If you’re on twitter, you’d say yes! Hahaha)
