Last week Thursday when I walked in to the building at 5:55 a.m., sky still dark, I didn’t see the flag at half mass, not till the sun rised, left my seat for potty breaks, came back and saw the flag like the above.  I was thinking to myself why was the flag set at [...]

Yes, it’s so true

By | August 28, 2009

Nothing much to do at work, so here I am taking online personality tests. Can’t “harvest” yet on my “farms” so here I am, wasting away my time till 2:30 pm with these tests. Oh yeah, I’m so in to the winter season.  I hate to say this, I don’t think I can survive Texas.  [...]

This and that

By | May 21, 2009

There are things to blog about but I just can’t seem to get to it.   Lazy is one of the reason and the other is I’m busy searching and reading up on the places we will be visiting in China.  The trip will still go on even though my parents are not coming with us.  [...]

Spring has sprung

By | April 16, 2009

Spring has definitely sprung, and in full gear, too. Buds on the trees and shrubs are all budding and I now remember what color the grass is. Pollination is going crazy and it’s not even May yet. Perennials are creeping up from being dormant for the long winter we had. The smell of fired up [...]

Second bottle of alcohol

The first bottle of alcohol I bought since 2004 is a bottle of white wine for a recipe I was making.  I bought it in 2005 which I used a cup of it.  That bottle of white wine is still sitting in the pantry, corked, tho I have used it a few more times, I [...]

White scene

By | April 5, 2009

That’s what we woke up to. I took this picture before I left for church and I was still snowing lightly.  The wet snow makes everything very pretty. However, it’s melting fast now and now the sun is out with gail force winds blowing, all white on the trees and streets will soon disappear.  Plus [...]

By | March 16, 2009

Our last snow fall which was last week. *Ranger’s passing the time since he was housebound * Yipee-ka-yeh!  The snow and ice is starting to disappear, and the robin is out.  Sorry, don’t have a telephoto lens, ok!  This is the best my P&S can do.  Picture taken by the patio door. I can see the ground [...]

Girl Scouts cookies

By | March 5, 2009

The Girl Scout cookies I ordered from my neighbor’s daughter a month ago came in yesterday.  I wanted to order more than 3 boxes but the thought of our expanding waistlines, I stuck with just these three boxes: 2 boxes of Samoas which is coconut, caramel and chocolate and 1 box of the good old [...]

Loh Fu Chi

By | February 27, 2009

When I’m in the restaurant for my Saturday part time job, I will sort of watch Loh Fu Chi at least once, or if not, it’s in the background.  Corrine bought this CD during one of her trips back to Malaysia/Spore.  David loves this CD to bits.  Though he don’t understand much of Cantonese, he still finds [...]

The horrible cold bug

By | December 22, 2008

That’s right, the cold virus is flying around the office.  Every one seems to be sick.  Hacking, sniffles, sneezing and the complains of “It’s cold in here” are abundant in the office these past few weeks.  Knock on wood, I hope I won’t get this bug from them.   In fact, I had a sore throat [...]
