Mind of a fickle

I was tagged by Simple Me . I am having a bit of Monday blues so I decided to try brighten up my day with this tag. The Rules: 1. Post your photo wearing red, may it be a red top, bottom, the least would be red accessories if you hate wearing red… If you can’t find one, you still have an option…. Either post your Significant Other’s photo or your child’s photo, if you have one. Of course, they should be wearing red. 2. Let us know the reason why you were wearing red that particular day. Was it your birthday? Is red your fave color or was it the shirt that you first saw in your closet that day? This was taken in Batam. And, the shirt is one of the things I brought during that trip. Also, I believe that time, it was one of my favorite shirts. 3. Tag 3 people close to your heart. By the way, they have to be in your blogroll. No cheating heart please. Lily, Marix and Beth

Mader L mentioned to us during our meet up last Saturday that there's a new "Mickey" restaurant at Anchorpoint. I was quite interested because I know the girls would love to go there. So, on Sunday, we went there. The two girls loved it as they were welcomed by Disney decors, Finding Nemo video and two computers used to display PlayHouse Disney website (one of their faves!) We had Mickey Mouse ear shaped pizza which was quite good, spaghetti and mac n cheeze. I find it a bit pricey though hehehe

I always look forward to Chinese New Year. Not because of the festivities, but because of the abundance of Mandarin Oranges and "Kiat Kiat" (small Mandarin Oranges), pineapple tarts, hong bao from my boss hehehe (he gives his staffs even those who are marrie!) and because we don't have work. This year, for 2 and a half days, extending to the weekend, making it 4 and a half! It's a welcome vacation especially after being on the "spot" at work for a few weeks now. Anyway, Gong Xi Fa Cai to our Chinese friends! May the new year bring happiness and prosperity to all!

She has been complaining that one of her lower tooth is aching. We checked it and it was already moving. Everytime, she bit on something (even bread), she will whine that it's aching. Ate A told Dawter T that we just pull it out. Of course, Dawter got scared. She told me that she wants it to come out naturally. (I want that too!) Well, around 8:45PM, her first milk tooth was extracted. Oh, I couldn't help but utter, "Ang laki na ng anak ko!" Now, now, she wants to put it under her pillow for the night. She said that tomorrow, the tooth fairy will exchange it with coins? Hmmmm... First time I heard that.

Think Happy Thoughts. That's my mantra lately. Though, there's still unwelcomed ones. I smile more often now. Really. So, how did I fare with "To Dos" so far. Errrmmm... Squirm here now... 1. Spend more time with the girls. Read and play with them when I can. And, not to get angry but to talk to them first when they're being makulit. Be a better mother and model to them. Well, well, good thing this is number one. I think I get an 8 here. Though I still have to work on it some more especially "the not to get angry part" --- I think I'll get there in due time. 2. Be a loving wife. I haven't really asked Pre if he has seen any changes yet hahaha But I try not to get him riled often now. 3. Lose A LOT of weight. My actual resolution is not to eat any chips this year. Some days I get this bad "manas" and I feel it's because I am storing lots of fluids in my body because of eating too much salty foods. Hmmm so who said New Year Resolution...

The week started without my Tagalog tele-serye. Yes, I vowed to stop watching after Ysabella ended hehehe I vowed to stay away from the tv at night and just be with the "3" kids. Hahaha. So far, so good. I had a very interesting week at the office where my boss and I talked about my performance. I was quite disappointed with some of his "thoughts", I felt that it was very subjective especially when he had to name people who he thinks we should gang up with but I really really don't like. He said that I cannot choose my users. True. But, he's not a typical user, he's out to get our bloods (He always have to brag that he's rubbing shoulders with the head of all heads whenever we have meeting with him! As if that will scare me off! Hahaha!). Even though my blood was close to boiling point, I quickly signed off my appraisal form. Let's wait and see how "good" the result is in a few months. What got me spiffy are the little thing...
