With hubby away, sometimes i feel like things are a handful for me. That's why we really do need a helper around the house. The first one was fine, at first. After a few months, though, she showed her true colors. Am not really sure if she was sick, but she kept saying that she has difficulty in breathing everytime she goes up the flight of stairs, or after she cleans the bigger room.
Quite annoying, really. We had to fire her and get another one. Hopefully the new one won't be the same. She's ok, so far; and I hope it stays that way! ;P
My father loves the outdoors and so I was thinking the other day if he got that 5.11 Tactical Knife which I showed him some time ago. I know he'll find it useful, specially when he goes out to visit the farm. He is kind of old-fashioned when it comes to doing stuffs there, so am sure he'll find lots of use for that knife.
Speaking of old fashioned, I remember those past Christmas seasons when things were pretty simple and us kids were really just content with what we'll find in our socks. Sure,we voiced out our wants, but never really thought we'd get them. Some of them were quite impossible, anyway; like a talking doll (finding one in the province was next to impossible! lol) for myself. What we got were mostly stuffs like chocolates and apples (a rare treat during those days), new clothes, and some cash. Our breakfast would be something special and we would eat together. Then attend Holy Mass at the local church together, too. Really nice. But since I was just a kid then I never really thought about it much. All I could think about then was the food and the presents. lol. Oh yeah, I was excited about meeting and greeting my neighbor playmates, too. We would show each other what we got and sometimes share them. Not all the time, though. You can't share your cash of course! :D
These days Christmas here is usually spent at my mother-in-law's place. There are lots of food prepared and the best part (for me) are the kids excitedly opening their gifts. Too bad my son won't be joining us this Christmas since he has decided to go visit my parents instead; where his cousins are also going (they, more or less, are of the same age bracket). He'll be travelling with my sister and niece. So that leaves with just hubby, myself, and our three-month old son spending Christmas at our MIL's place.
What about you? Going somewhere this Christmas Season? :)

Thought i'd post something christmassy today ... :)
enjoy!
Food ... that's something that's really interesting. For me, anyway. lol. Our new helper used to cook "kakanins" and so yesterday i asked her to cook some "biko" for us. I tried cooking that before, but it turned out to be such a disaster i vowed never to cook it myself again! lol.
I hope to find the courage again ... :P

I just finished paying for a life insurance that I got some years back, and I know it wouldn't hurt if I search for competitive term life insurance rates online. Sometimes people don't like taking out insurance for themselves, but for me it's a great way to "save". Though of course things might go wrong with the company in the future; but that's part of investing, the risk involved.
But anyway, let's just wait and see ...

I am not really fond of sexy lingerie myself, and that's why when some well-meaning friends sent me a couple it did nothing but stay in the cabinet for months! I am the pajama type of girl so when a friend mentioned that she adores sexy lingeries I immediately sent her the stuffs. Wouldn't want them to go to waste; and am glad somebody actually appreciates them! :)
Sunrise ... before it rained ... :)
*played with my shot .. made it look crumpled. :D
