My Pink Dog


This is the closest to my having a pet dog. This way, the cats wont get jealous and no fighting around the house. I have been a really good customer of Victoria's Secret and the pink pup is my proof! I'm turning into a VS Shopaholic. Every week I spend like $50! I am running out of reasons to buy some more. Who can blame me? Online shopping is so much fun!

The Week in Review

It's still early in the morning, For some unknown reason, I always wake up early on Fridays. I wish can I sleep in but, to no avail, here I am browsing the internet with a cup of coffee beside me. Thought I'd write an entry instead of spending more money online.

It has been a crazy week for us. Monday, Rick got a call from his mom with some bad news, his Aunt Mildred was found unconscious in her apartment. They thought she had a heart attack. But later this week we found out that she's fine and back at home. Tuesday, was terrible! A building not too far from where I work had an explosion! It happened around 8:30 in the morning. I was trying to fix our internet connection when it happened. Thought somebody hit our building! I didn't really pay attention on what was going on, until I saw people from next door, rushing outside and looking up. Decided to check it out myself. There was this big cloud of black smoke and one of the guys started yelling to get out of there because there are propane tanks close to where the fire was. So, with my coffee mug on one hand and my purse on the other, I ran out of the building. Took off with Rick. We went home and there were ashes from the blast on our driveway! And we live a couple miles away!

Although, I think it was a little bit too much to close the roads and evacuate houses within half a mile radius. But they did and the entire area was blocked for more than 10 hours! We couldn't go back to work! So pretty much our day was wasted. We didn't know what to do with ourselves, coz we were suppose to be working! Isn't that ironic! We couldn't go to the store because the one store we have in our "big" city was evacuated as well! Business must have sucked that day.

The rest of the week was like a history class. People coming in and out of the office reminiscing the memory of the blast. I'm getting tired of it. But i bet there will be more stories come Monday. Oh well, as long as i get paid to listen to it.

Life is so unpredictable! Be prepared.

Picture It 15



Kahunaville's Mahalo Salmon

A Birthday Poem

I may not say it often.
You may not even feel it sometimes.
I may not act as if I am grateful.
You might think that I take you for granted.

But, I do love you.
I thank the Lord everyday,
For giving me You.
A wonderful You.

I know I don't express myself much.
So I take this chance,
On your special day,
To say...

I love you.
Thank you.
Life has been great,
Because of You.

Happy Birthday, My Ricky!

February Blank

I can't believe I didn't have a single entry last month! I swear I wrote something... It was probably about nothing anyway. Just like all the other entries! :-)

Hmmm.... what did we do last month... Oh, I know! Valentine's Day! We didn't do anything that day. Rick had to work that night and I have been working like a horse lately. So nothing romantic happened. We went out to a fancy restaurant that weekend and he gave me a bouquet of roses, which was free! Menard's gave away their leftover flowers from valentine's hehehe... what a cheapo! But the gesture was greatly appreciated, thank you. Towards the end of the month we went to Oshkosh, WI for Rick's conference, spent a couple nights there and then after that we stayed at WI Dells for a couple of nights again. Oshkosh wasn't nice. We got lost each time we try to explore the city. Durango's, a Mexican restaurant there was really good though. WI Dells is the Kid's Capital of the State! Lot's of fun stuff to do for kids. And obviously, the place was packed - with whinny little brats! I loved our stay there. Food was great and right across our hotel is Tanger Outlet! Great shopping!

To sum it all up, last month wasn't too bad. I still feel overworked though. I need more vacation! Rick's birthday is coming up. Still don't know what to do for him. He doesn't want a party. We are going to see his mom instead and celebrate it with her. Hope we'll have fun!

Work is so stressful. :-(
