Round up

Monday, August 16th, 2010

It’s been a week since I wrote something here.   So much going on but just don’t have the mood to pen them down.  My mood is back to normal, whatever normal is.  At least I know I have my appetite to eat.  Whatever few pounds I had lost in a week’s, is  slowly creeping back!  Good and bad, I guess.  No more anxiety attacks!

Last Friday early morning it was raining crazy, so heavy the ground is not even soaking them in fast enough.  As usual the county we live in will sound the severe weather sirens on while we are asleep.  The numerous thunders work me up couple of times.  When I got up at 3:50 it was still pouring straight down.   No choice have to still take Ranger out for his business.  The other two, they can do it by the yard. 

From all the rain that night/morning, we had water leakage in the walk-in closet in the master bedroom.  Water was leaking from the light that flows right into the globe, onto the carpet and also on the walls to the door frame (door to the walk-in closet).  DB saw it while he was getting ready for work.  And I was still using the switch to turn the light on for the closet room.  Stupid!!!!!

Since DB cannot use phones/pc or anything for communicating to the outside world, I have to call the landlord/lady when I got to work.  5 am to call them was too early.  I called them at 7, left a message, landlord called back right away.  That’s the start of the whole charade of  phone calls back and forth with him.   DB does not get home till 6:30-6:45 pm, I have to take care of it myself.  The landlord had management to call me to arrange for a time to fix it that day but landlord wanted to take a look at it first.  I left work at 12:30, went straight home and straighten the house!  Damn, need to pickup the crap that was laying all over the house, vacuumed and dust!  I was thinking to myself it was good that I vacuumed the stairs every week.  There is not much dog hair accumulated on the stairs from weekly vacuuming tho I bitch about doing it all the time….it’s a back breaker to vacuum the carpet on the stairs.  I have not dusted the house since we moved in in May.  Superb house keeper I am!!

Management and his crew sealed up the leak which was coming in from one of the vents, pulled out the insulation in the walls.  Thank goodness the carpets are spared, they weren’t soaking wet when we saw the leak.  The crew will be back tomorrow I think to install insulation since they said it will take about 3-4 days to get the walls dry up.

I’m hoping they will come in this afternoon or tomorrow since it’s DB’s weekend.  If they don’t show up on these two days, I will have to call the landlord to be there when the maintenance crew come – just for safety sake.

Need to detox

Tuesday, July 20th, 2010

I am looking into ways to detox, get rid of all the crap that’s in my system. I notice my skin is not clear like what it was when I was prepping for my colonoscopy in April. All the purging and fasting absolutely did my skin good. It was so much clearer, brighter and definitely no need for acnepril for the acnes. Yes, I was very surprise what the prep did to my skin. So I’m scanning the god’s of Google to find a good detox.   I might cough out some dough for some whitening serum for my dark spots but for my overall detox, I am going for a day fasting and purging!  Hopefully I will find a good brand.

Lazy summer days

Tuesday, July 20th, 2010

I have been so lazy these past few weeks. I am blaming it on the weather which for some is the perfect weather. For me I despise the sun as it really hurts my skin, no matter how much sun block I slather on myself, it’s no help. The sun loves me too much!!! At least I get my free dose of Vitamin D that I’m lacking of not any human growth hormone my coworker’s older boy is getting himself into. He is into body building, bulking up and apparently he says HGH works for him. Speaking of bulking up, I’m bulking up in a sense of FAT. Yeah, my walks with the boys are slow and super short. Get them out, they do their businesses and i quickly get back into the house and plant my butt on the chair in front of the TV or PC. Curse those tempatations! :)

Just a thought

Thursday, July 15th, 2010

The man and I had a talk about moving back to M’sia. He saw an article about retiring in some countries listed and one of them is M’sia and with $1200 from Social Security. Hmmm, that got me thinking and he I already wants to live there if and when he retires. The question falls on me if I want to leave my natural air conditioning back to the hot and sweltering place I grew up in. A friend of mine told me she would help DB look for a job too if I email her his resume. DB is actually working on updating his resume. I guess he is really serious about leaving US but he said he is wondering if there are affordable life insurance for seniors if he decides to move to M’sia for retirement. I told him there should be but probably more expensive, I guess. Who knows, we really might pack up and move back to M’sia.

Nothing much….just the ram-bur-ling….

These days I have nothing much to write about….contemplating, again, if I should close this blog.  I don’t update about myself or whats going on much.  This blog has become a making money blog, not much, but enough to pay the server and extras for miscellaneous.  The money part is tempting enough for me to keep it going but the thought of having to put in non paid writings in between them is giving me a headache.  Will see what I decide to do

I wanted to go downtown in the city we live for picture  taking but days are so darn hot and with no air conditioning in the car, I decided to stay home…Stay home to play more games on FB.  Actually I’m playing some and ignoring a lot of the others.  I have quite a few books laying out on my desk staring at me, begging me to open them up.  I opened one up but the temptation of Frontierville is right there.  Terrible isn’t it?  No self-control nor will power to just shut down the pc and read my book.  Guess the book is not as appealing as the game! :)  Or, I can clear out more boxes that are sitting in the house.  Dang, the power of FB games!

Anyways, I have been baking cakes and meals almost every week.  I never take pictures of them since they are just so-so according to me.  DB said they are damn good.  I baked couple of recipes from The Pioneer Woman’s cooking site and Lesley’s.  The weekends are now for errands and cleaning on Saturday; Sunday’s church and cooking/baking for the week’s meals.  It does saves a lot of time during the week to think of what to eat and then prep them.  I’m lazy that way.  Plus DB is beat when gets home from work.  He works about 9 hours a day, 6 days a week.  On top of that, that fella does not go to bed early either….so pretty much he is asking to be tired. :)  Asking him to help out after he gets home from work is pointless.  He will say “Give me 10″ meaning he will take a 10-minute nap which normally turns out to 30 or more minutes. 

Ok, enough of my nonsense.  Here’s to a great weekend to everyone.  Will surf the cooking websites soon for recipe ideas.  Tee-da-loo!
