Lazy summer days

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! :)

DB has a room in the house set up with his office desk, printers and his two pcs. Yet he is not using the room. The room is still in a state of mishap, mishap of cables. He said he needs to get another Linksys router so he could finish up moving his stuff around in the room (office). I told him all the routers he has in the umpteen boxes he has he could have use one of them. He then can at least start moving some of the crap that he had started setting up by the dining table. I shall see when he will finally get moving.

Just a thought

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.

Weekend project

July 13th, 2010

DB got super busy last weekend. The land lord brought over the shelving for our pantry on Friday. Remember how we stuff all the pantry boxes into the pantry when we first moved it?  Here’s a picture of it, the total mess of a pantry:

We took everything out to a super bright, clean pantry.

And the man got to business, putting up the first shelf and he then told me to go do whatever I needed to do.

In other words, he kicked me out of his territory! Good deal to me coz I got to write reviews on safe diet pills and not forgetting FB games in between.

Man hard at work

Of course I have to come downstairs to busybody a little….mainly to take pictures for blogging material!  Here it is, almost done.

And all shelves put up.

He said he can now cross ”putting up pantry shelves” off his to-do list.

My job now is to put these onto the shelves!!!

I pushed all the boxes back into the pantry and whatever on the counter onto the shelvings.  I am taking Wednesday and Friday off this week, hopefully I can unpack most of all these boxes and make the pantry, a real PANTRY! :)

Kids with too much time in their hands

July 13th, 2010

It’s summer break over here in the US. School age kids are out and about, very free so what they do besides going on vacation with their folks? They go decorate the neighborhood with toilet paper (TP). :D

Hehehehe, no all kids do that, but I assumed those who have itchy hands and butt, wants to get their hands into something, they throw TP up trees and make a mess of them.

These two pictures were taken this morning on my way to work. It’s always during summer and around Halloween we will see this TP-ing on trees and shrubs. I can only assume teenage kids will do that….a prank. The good thing is it didn’t rain overnight. If not, it will be a pain to get the TP off the tree.

If only there are cameras around the neighborhood, the neighborhood association will catch these buggers!
