I’m ready to “run” now…

Well, while down in Southern Cali, I took advantage of Nordy’s Anniversary Sale (I didn’t make the sale when it was going on up here, but I knew the sale would still be on while we were down there.) by purchasing a pair of Adidas “running” shoes.  (OK…maybe “walking” in my case…but I do both…as [...]

Around this time….

As we were coming home from Bay Street on 580 East, I happened to look at Alta Bates Hospital from the freeway….in the beginning after Nanay’s death,  it was hard for me to pass by Alta Bates without thinking of her hospitalization…after all, Nanay was there for almost a month…so were we.  It was on [...]

Off to Bay Street (again!)

After church, Jacq, E, and the gurls and the hubs, AC and I went to Fuddrucker’s for lunch.  I was feeling much better compared to yesterday but will still take it easy and rest since work mode begins tomorrow!  To make me feel “better,” I opted for “retail therapy!” It doesn’t matter whether it’s clothes, [...]

I don’t feel too good…

Well, I no longer have “angelina jolie” looking lips (slightly swollen but not so obvious compared to yesterday) but I came down with a cold/flu.  I could feel it coming on yesterday with the body aches, chest congestion and stuffy nose…that’s why I feel so miserable right now but still able to “blog.”  Today I’m [...]

A swollen lip, Spam and a lack of memory…

Well, the hubs and I just finished lunch at home….since we were gone almost the entire week, our fridge is practically empty so we had to make the best of it by having spam, eggs and rice….SPAM is what I call “emergency” food. [By the way...I just googled "what spam is made of" out of curiosity.  I've been eating [...]

Back in the Bay . . .

After 7 days and 6 nights in Southern Cali, we are home! The weather down there was extremely hot and unbearable, not to mention humid! Before we went to my cousin’s house, we had to go the Sherrif’s Department to obtain a parking permit to park our car on the street during the [...]

A thought of her …

While having lunch at my desk just now, I was thinking about what Nanay was doing….it’s funny how our mind “works”….after all, Nanay is no longer here but I sometimes get that “thought” of her and wonder what she’s doing (at home).  I remember the first time I had that thought was back in November [...]

Woebegone…

Yup…that’s how I’m going to describe myself right now.  Bruh (CE) and I went to a rosary for one of our friend’s mother who passed away.  It’ll be almost a year come September when we were at that very same “place” for Nanay’s viewing.  I’ve attended quite a few “viewings” since Nanay has left us [...]

Seafood City, et al.

After mass, Bruh (CE) and I went to Seafood City..but first we ate at ChowKing’s….we had their longinisa, tapa, fried garlic rice and eggs….and of course their shakes…Bruh had the ube and I had the pandan.  (Thanks Bruh!) As I was in Chow King, I remembered it was a year ago that we were in [...]
