Since I got to my parents’ home, I have been looking around, seeing things that were not there before. My mom put aside a box of ceramics for me - if I want them. Of course, I unwrapped them individually and picked those I want. Dad gave me some pens - those that he had been collecting and put them neatly in his drawer. I took some with me since I only have one in my bag and needed one for me in my backpack.
I met up with Samm Tuesday afternoon. She is as skinny as ever. We took some pictures, got home and showed my parents and DB the pictures. Dad still remembered her and when I showed him the picture of Samm and I, this is what he said: “Wah, so fat, ahh?” I had to tell him that fat one is me. “Samm is the one next to me lah!!” Will see if I will put the picture up. Too shy to put it up since I’m looking like a barrell now :)
Katie, the lady who replaces me in the fileroom, is on her second cruise of her life time. She and her ex-boyfriend, Tom, are now into caribbean cruises every winter. Yeah, it weird, they are not a couple anymore, but they are very good friends and travel companions. Their last cruise was to the Eastern part of the Caribbean. This cruise is to the Western side where they will pay a visit to Jamaica, Cancun, Costa Maya, Belize and Guatemala. They pick a 14-night itinerary for all these places, which I think there are some additional places they are going, but I can’t recall where. I am still waiting for my first cruise….
I am still debating if should get a tool storage for DB’s birthday cum Christmas present. He wanted a storage for all his tools for the longest I know. I wanted to get one last year but could not afford it. This year, will be the same, but maybe if I have enough saved up, I can get one cheap one for him. His tools are driving me up the wall and I think what is worse is how comes to me and ask if I have seen this or that tool.
Casey, my friend at work brought her aunt to the seniors home couple of weeks ago. This home has nursing service which they needed for her aunt. It is really sad to see a lady in her 60s who used to be so independent but now so dependent on others. She suffered from a stroke a few months ago and now she needs incontinence products for her daily life. They are disposal and easy to purchase. Casey told me she felt sad and uneasy buying these products for her aunt.
