Four-Day Weekend

Tue, 20 Dec 2011 14:13:00 +0000

Yep, my husband will have one for their Christmas holiday this year. It will start on the 23rd, Friday until the 26th, Monday. And since we are all looking forward to a busy weekend because of family parties starting on the 24th, we will have our grocery shopping on the 23rd. I know the parking lot will be jam-packed by then, but that is the only time that we could do it. It will be worse on the weekend, I believe.

But even though the stores will be crowded, I do look forward to our grocery shopping because I will include chocolates that I am going to put on our dining table. I told my boys not to touch the chocolates until the New Year. LOL. But I doubt if that would be possible. (“,)

A Steal of a Deal

I’ve been hearing about Cyber Monday deals even before I got here in the land of Uncle Sam, but I never got to enjoy it last year. Perhaps this year because that is certainly one of the best times to shop for great deals.

And knowing that we will shop for new Christmas decors this year including a new Christmas tree, I know for certain, it will be the best time for us to shop. I already told the husband about it and as always, he’s in for the idea. He knows how wise I am when it comes to shopping so, no second thoughts for him.

Christmas is my favorite time of the year and I certainly can’t wait for Cyber Monday to do our Christmas décor shopping! Wheee!!!

“Oh Christmas Tree, Oh Christmas Tree…”

“Are we going to have an artificial christmas tree or a live Christmas tree?” This is what I asked my fiancé a few days ago. We will be celebrating our first Christmas together in his home this year and knowing that they usually use a live tree as a Christmas tree there prompted me to ask that question. In our country, we often use an artificial Christmas tree but I think a live Christmas tree is something really interesting. I just don’t have an idea which one is easier to put up or has advantages over the other. That, I need to find out.

He Better Not Be Grouchy With me, Or Else!

Even though over the next couple of weeks I will be celebrating my first Thanksgiving ever with my fiancé and his family, my mind is already looking ahead to Christmas. Christmastime is kid’s time and my fiance’s stepson has three small children. And my fiancé also has two young nieces. Therefore, my mind is already trying to figure out our gift list.

I discovered a wonderful site highlighting the Personal Creations Sesame Street collection. Sesame street has been around for years and my fiancé even remembers watching it when he was a kid, so that should give you an idea of just how old he is…(sorry Honey). But there I found so many wonderful ideas for kid’s gifts, for girls and boys both. I just wish I could find something for my fiancé featuring Oscar the Grouch because he and Oscar sure do seem to have the same personality, as in grouchy. LOL!

Ho, Ho, Ho, I’m Ready to Go…Holiday!

Can you smell it? The smell of Christmas, that is. It is still October but Christmas is definitely in the air especially here in our country where some people start decorating as soon as the “ber” months start and, yes, I am talking about September. It may be surprising to some but it is the norm here because it is the most special holiday that we celebrate.

I actually start thinking of what to give my loved ones as early as September. And this year, I am thinking about sending them Photo Christmas Cards as well. I really like them and I do believe they will like them too for I will not only be sharing my pictures but the pictures of the whole family. I’ve already chosen a design but am yet to order them. I can’t wait to get started.

Is It Christmas Yet?!

Wed, 23 Jun 2010 22:58:03 +0000

My fiancé is totally aware of my eagerness or, if I may say, my itchiness to have a laptop. I’ve always wanted one because the two PCs we have here at home are my dad’s and they are used for the family business, so I can’t use them as much as I want to. My fiancé knows how difficult it is for me at times to do my online tasks, especially if both the PCs are busy, so he promised that he will buy me a laptop soon – one with a 3 year laptop warranty. He specifically said that because he says not all offer such a good warranty. Isn’t he clever? Good boy, Honey.

Anyway, I still don’t know when he’s going to buy me one. Maybe he’ll be my Santa Claus and buy me one for Christmas. He keeps his promises, so I’ll be patient because I know he’ll be keeping a list and checking it twice, to see if I’ve been naughty or nice, and I’m always a good li’l girl…(“,)
