Hubby and I were looking at the adds this morning for groceries. We had found all three stores that offered great deals on some grocery item that's in my Hubby's list.

Hubby will be in-charged for the Thanksgiving dinner preparation. This morning, he was asking me if we can go to the store and buy the stuff that he needs. I was kind of lazy to move and kind of sleepy. I told him if he can go by himself. Someone volunteered to accompany him and no other than our Angelina. She always has this Yakult Energy...lol!

After I gave her breakfast, off they went to the store. Yeah, Hubby don't want to rusle-dazzle in the store for the last minute shopping. As usual, the store will be packed of people. Besides, he got some coupon and great savings for what he needs. Thank you to all the adds that comes in our mail on Wednesday.

While the father and daughter were gone, Ma and I are busy putting up some simple Christmas decorations in our abode while Pa's vacuuming. We just want the spirit of Christmas inside our house so, decorating it with simplicity is worth it.

After a while, Rich and Angelina came home with all the handy-dandy groceries in their hands.

"Mama, we buy the biggest Turkey in the store, it's naked and ready to cook," her news to me right away. "It's so heavy and I can't carry it by myself."

Dada and I were just laughing. I asked Dada if Angelina was giving him a hard time in the store.

"No, she was very behave in the store and so happy to be with her Dada," hubby's reply.

For our lunch, Hubby brought some Burrito's from Taco John's so, I didn't have the chance to eat my rice. Since Ma and Pa don't give up on their rice thingy, they didn't get the Burrito at all. We let them tried to taste different kind of food but still it's hard on their stomach, that's according to "them".

Well, Hubby and I can relate living in our country Philippines for 70 years...lol!

 

I've heard from a source that someone is on a diet pills just so she can show off to her friends. Does fatness really depress someone and can cause inferiority and insecurity complex? Based from the concensus, yes! A lot of people specially women are trying hard to lose those belly fats.

So, are you one of those who are struggling to lose those belly fat for years? It seems  belly fat, potbelly, beer belly or more affectionately, love handles are becoming a problem for more people these days. Apart from our biological make up, today's lifestyle can have a great impact on the amount of weight we carry. More and more people are stuck behind a desk for longer hours with less time for exercise.

You have to get up and move. I am not suggesting you run a marathon but some properly controlled movement is essential. Jogging and running has been proven  to be effective. Nor is doing 100's of crunches or sit-ups. Yes, crunches and sit up will strengthen your abs but will not remove the layer of fat covering them and in fact increasing these muscles without removing the fat may actually make this area look bigger.

Buying or hiring expensive weight reducing or abdominal exercise equipment is a waste of your hard-earned money. But using a combination of interval and resistance training is ideal as is a martial arts class such as kickboxing, karate, or kung fu. By using the tips in the Essential Guide to Lose belly Fat and taking these positive steps, you will not only make you feel great by improving your health and fitness levels but will also improve your overall appearance as well as shifting that stubborn unhealthy belly fat to reveal those wonderful strong abs.

Hubby purchased the PayPerView so Pa can watch the ultimate fight of our kumpareng Manny. My dearest Father is a boxing fanatic and as a reward of his being a good father, we let him enjoy what he wants as long as we can afford...$50.00 wasn't bad at all instead of going to Vegas. We thought it was the right time for us to go and watch the real fight inside the ring. Too bad, it's snowing really bad in the mountain where it's the way going to Sin City.

Our other choice was to stay home for the weekend and just watch over HBO, hmmmm...I saved some money though. The cheapest ticket was close to $400.00/person. To gamble or not, it wasn't mean to be...wink! There's always an excuse, right? God really has a plan and I was liking His idea.

Yesterday, at the last minute...I asked my Dearpie if I can invite some friends to come over. Here's the story, a friend called asking if where were going to watch the fight. I humbly said that in our very own abode with family since my Dearpie don't want to go to any party for the meantime.

While Hubby and I were having our sweet conversation eating our breakfast, yesterday. He gave me permisssion to invite some friends to join with us. Hmmm...that was nice of him but take note of SOME friends. He thought there were only two but he was surprise at the end...wink! He thinks it was kind of cute in my part...only two visitors...lol! Thank you, Dearpie for your undertstanding mind and heart. Glad your mood swing didn't strike...ahahahha!

I called my dearest friends and they were glad to be watching Pacquiao. Yes, KUMARE, you were in my lists but I undertand your sentiments...lol.

We had what we called the potluck. It's called bring whatever you can and it turned out really fun. We had paksiw na Bangus, Rice Noodles, Pork Humba, Fried Dried Bisugo Fish, Sinigang na Baka, Stylish Adobong Manok, Pinakbet, Fried Talong, Fish Escabeche, and then two different kind of cakes for dessert and sodas too. Just simple cooking from our different kitchen really is yummylicious. That's the beauty and art in potluck!

For the record, Manny won again! My hands and throat were just so soar from clapping and shouting....oh!!!
So far, of all his fights that I have ever seen, last night was the very exciting and thrilling one. They made it up to 12 rounds and opponent Cotto gave up before the last round ended.

Once again, Manny, our country Phlippines is so proud of you. What a victory to the whole Filipino nation.

To a dear friend who invited me and my family to join the fun at the Casino, where the fight of Pacquiao and Cotto was aired and seen in a very big screen TV, thank you so much. Maybe next time.

Once a year, usually on Thanksgiving Day, I take the time to write a letter to God, thanking Him for specific things in my life. 
Sometimes, I'll look back and it's been a rough year, but I still see His hand and kindness.

 Usually I end up crying and praying for a long time, realizing how blessed I truly am. What about you?  Will you take some time and tell us a few things you're most thankful for this year?

Give God the Glory!

We didn't go anywhere special over the weekend but we had so much fun as a family. We took care of some business here and there and we accomplished it with flying colors.

Without God's guidance, I don't know what life looks like. You may notice how I praise the Lord all the time simply, it's because He's moving in our life. He's always there to comfort me/us.

I thank our Pastor in Pinas and the church congregation for their support and prayers. Prayer is powerful and healing is a miracle.

We can't be perfect in serving the Lord but God can see the desire of our hearts. Just pray without ceasing and life is good as long as you serve the one true God.

Enjoy your Monday morning  and be an ambassador of goodwill!

My words of wisdom: Don't be so confident of what you are and what you have in this world. Just be realistic and accept the fact of what kind of life you are living right now. Everything is under control from our Almighty Father.

My prayer:Father in heaven, today I choose to tune out the negative voices of the world. I choose to trust in You even when no one else will. I thank You for the good things You are doing in my life and trust that You will fulfill every promise You’ve made to me. In Jesus' Name. Amen.

Cheers and God Bless US All!

Yesterday, our Angelina was grounded and was in time out.

Yes, she likes to go to school but she's kind of la-di-da, la-di-da in moving so we can be ready.

Well, her routine is to take  a morning nap with her Dada. Normal nap pattern is 11:00 AM.

At 12:30 PM, she wakes up and have to eat her lunch. Oh my golly, this eating habit of her's just consume our time. She eats by herself in the kitchen. She sings while eating and playing with her fork and spoon. In other words, I think her time is more on the extra-curricular activities instead of putting the food in her mouth.

So, I finally told her yesterday that she's not going to school if she won't pay attention of what she's doing. She was not happy about it and was in tears because she really want to be at school.

"Tomorrow if you keep up with our time table and schedule, I will take you to school," I told her.

Yes! She made it on time from sleeping, eating, brushing and changing her clothes today.Thank you to Dada for some additional reinforcement and encouragement.

I dropped her off today and the teacher was asking her why she was absent yesterday. She looked at me and I said tell your teacher.

"I was in time out for not keeping up with my routine."

The teacher and her classmates are glad to see Angelina back.

 

It's been a while that we didn't have pizza.

For a changed, Hubby called Fudge Brother Pizza and order a hawaiian toppings. It was our 1st time to order this place. Man, that puppy was huge and juicy.

One big sliced, just filled my tummy! For our drinks, Hubby blended some banana and orange juice.

Thank you, Deapie for your quick and easy fixin' style. Ganyan talaga kapag may nagmamahal at minamahal. ...oh! so sweet...pizza ra diay to...hambog na kaayo. Pag-tsur uy!

Happy viewing and reading...

So cute how the kids during the party took their own picture

The Material Girl Dancers! Having so much fun!

Birada jud mga, Mare! Di jud ko kalimot ani nga event in my life.

So funny that all the friendship have bangs...for a change yata!

It's the last day of October and it's HALLOWEEN DAY!

My girl had a cheer leader costume and I'm not sure if she still be wearing it tonight. I'm pretty sure, all the halloween costumes are on sale now and maybe after I get off from work, I will drop by to the store and get one for Angelina.

On the other hand, I was laughing so hard when a friend called me last night. She's inviting me for a bar hopping halloween party.

"Oh my gulay!" that comes out from my mouth. She was not forcing me though because she knows who I am. She was just trying to tempt me and my husband...lolz!

Wrong person and timing, my friend. That's all I can say.
I can't imagine how crowded the bar tonight with all the people in their halloween costumes. Lots of drunk people, per husband.

Anyway, I'm still undecided where to go for our Halloween day. Lots of choices but need topick one or I will be in the limbo after all...wink!

She's a good helper to some extent


Christmas in October

Thank you to my Dearpie for running the snow blower..something to do

I see some but not plenty of opportunities in my end. Sometimes my brain is so lazy to think of something to write on. Just not in the mood to be creative and invent something.

Anyway, I did shovel tons of snow outside our house being Hubby's helper. This time we used our snow blower where Hubby was the driver. I did some clearing in our front porch and back.

Today is very memorable to me. I just lost my black sony camera that I always call my partner in life aside from my Hubby. I think my toy and friend mixed up with the tons of snow. I didn't notice it until I'm about to pulled it out from my coat pocket. Of course, I was kind of sad and we digged all over where I used to shoveled but to no avail.

Maybe, when all the snow will be melting in a day or two, we can find my camera and by that time, it is totally useless. It's not water proof and for sure broke as in sira na talaga. I dropped it so many times already and there was even a dent in it. Sometimes the lens won't open at all so I have to pushed it manually. Hmmm...you think it's about time to get a new one? Well, Christmas is on its way...for the mean time, I used my other Sony silver camera.

 

Christmas is fast approaching and everyone is in so much joy when this season comes. Gifst and presents are everywhere even from a far away land.

Speaking of gift shopping, there's no need to spend your time hopping from one store to another just to get the great deal and comparison of the price that you want.

Now a days, just a click from your mouse and in the comfort of your home, shopping online is the best solution. You can visit happyspree.com for all your electronics' need. From HDTV, ninetendo, Wii, computers, ipod and so much more.

As you can see on their website, the start price is always lower than the retail price. So, it means that even if you were the first person to click the show price button, that you would already have locked in a substantial dsicount. It is so interesting and even better because every time the show price button is clicked by any happyspree member anywhere, the price of that item drops by 25 cents. Isn't it a very cool deal?

 I know, I know, shopping online is addictive but if the price is right, go and grab it.

We experienced a snow storm in our area yesterday and today. Can't do any outdoor activities at all and just stayed in the comfort of our abode.

I have the chance to sit down and feast my eyes watching our TV as Direct TV being our provider. What I like with  Direct TV packages we have, we can watch up to 300 channels. It's so cool and we all like to click and click using our remote just to figure it out what is being played in the different channels.

The best of all, with Directtv, it's the only cable and satellite provider that has an international channel. Being Filipino as my nationality, we got TFC (The Filipino Channel) as part of the deal. Now, I'm hooked up with all the soaps and entertainment that this channel has to offer. Seems like I am closed to home all the time and never felt being home sick.

So, if you want something to entertain you at home, get Direct TV as your satellite provider to satisfy all your needs when it comes to TV entertainment. Great news about Direct TV as of now, they have free shipping and free professional installation. For sure, Directtv is the leader in HD televison.

 

It's official, snow is pouring like crazy in our area. It's not just an ordinary snow but we will be experiencing some snow storms for two days per weather MAN.

It was slushy and wet when I was driving this morning. Just pecking at the window right now, the condition is getting worst.

Hubby will pick me up after work, he called me not too long ago to remind not to drive home.

We will see...I need to experience or try driving in the snow now no matter what it takes. I'm living in a state that needs driving in the snow during the winter season, might as well need to act now. How's that? Does it sounds good or bad?

Life is a challenge according to the saying, so here I am ready to face one this season....no, no, no! Not the Amazing Race...!

So funny how I procrastinate about doing this kind of fun kunohay. I can relate posting my personal blog but getting paid, I was just lazy as a dog.

Just not in the mood...

We will see, maybe tonight I will grab one before I got suspended again for declining all the time.

It was a blast for everyone! No words to describe how enjoyable we were with the camaraderie that we had.

First and foremost, I would like to give the credit for the Urien's for inviting us and opening their atmospheric and very ambiance residence.

We all appreciate their hard worked in decorating their abode with all the halloween decors. It was so cute, neat and organized.

What a great time once again to have fellowship with friendship in town.



Despite of the hosts busy-ness in life they still managed to throw a very exciting and memorable Halloween Party.

There's no need to do further elaboration...our photos will justify the means.



Enjoy and have a great week!
