TGIF!

Yep, thank god it’s friday!!! and thank god I’m taking a half a day off… just using up all my remaining vacation… I have five more left and I’m taking one on my bday and the rest on victoria day weekend, I’m taking the rest of the week off… hopefully it’ll be nice and really warm by then so I can take our son to the park everyday… he loves the park…

well, since I have half the day off, I have so much work to finish… yet, i’m here blogging away… hehehe…

yesterday, I didn’t know whether I should think of it as funny or if I should be irriritated… it’s just that with old people, I find I can’t easily get mad at them… I respect old people too damn much, even if they’re not worth my respect… just the filipino trait in me that keeps getting out…
anyways, there’s this old lady at work, filipina too, and never married, but that’s not the point… I don’t like how she acts or talks… twice already I overheard her say something about me behind my back, LITERALLY!!! I know she’s been going around telling people I’m preggers… I don’t know where she gets that from, but I’ve had more than a couple of people ask me if I am… and that just annoys me…. the first time, I heard her say “si A_____ oh, ang laki” doesn’t that hurt??? then on another occasion I heard her say “malapit nang mag mat leave yan” all the while I was walking about 10 paces ahead of them… doesn’t that just fires your engine??? but as I said, I have too much fear or respect of old people that I don’t bother to tell her off… I don’t want to appear rude… so I just keep quiet and smile…. then yesterday, remember the job the I was referred to and I turned it down? well, they have a gift giving to the people who were leaving yesterday so there we were in the boardroom, the senior amo told me to go inside coz at first I was just peeking in… so I did and I ended up sitting right smack in the middle of the boardroom… so while they were giving the gifts… I saw the tsismosas outside the boardroom whispering away… well, guess what? I knew it!!! they were whispering about moi! when I got out of the boardroom, one of them asked me “tinanggap mo yung position?”(you accepted the position?) I said “no” then she said “we thought you did, coz you were there” HUH??? well, that’s what you get for being TSISMOSAS!!!! anyways, I know I’ve gained a lot weight since coming back to work… but NO!!! I’m NOT preggers!!! maybe I look it but I’m not… I know that’s hard to accept… anyways… not worth to start my day with them…

last night, I noticed our son had a bit of a runny nose… and this morning, when I got up he kept crying, he just wants me to hold him… we should’ve been late for work but we weren’t, I just skipped, blow drying my hair and putting on make up… (I don’t put much, just a bit of eyeliner, browliner, lipstick, and a face powder – so I don’t know if you consider that makeup) I just put my hair up at work when it got dry and put my “make up” at work too…

oh yeah, last night, I watched this old movie “Return to Me” with David Duchovny(is that his last name?) and Minnie Driver nice enough movie… I had tears in the beginning… good thing I watched it already because I know hubby won’t like watching it coz it’s a chick flick… time to return it to the library… yes, I’m too cheap I borrow movies from the library for free…

have a good one, everyone!!!

flowers

I’ve planted some perennials in our front lawn and last night, I saw that one of them has a flower blooming already…. nice huh??? I just hope that all of them stays alive… what with my green thumb and all…. actually, I’m the opposite… I’ve known to kill plants… esp my houseplants… but I don’t know what i’m doing wrong… I don’t water them, they die, I water them, they die… what do you want me to do plants!

anyways… me and hubby were talking about our trip to LA this coming August and we’re kind of thinking that maybe we’d probably opt out of going… since, it’s going to take a big chunk of our money… esp money that’s meant for bills… now, if I can just tell my mom and tell her what we decided on…. (she really wants us to go with them…) but with money constraints how could we??? I don’t want to if it’s going to push us deeper in our money woes…

well, last night before going to sleep, me and hubby were cuddling and talking… and we got to talking about our weight… I don’t know how we got to that topic… oh! I remember, I saw a picture on our camera phone of him with our son and he was sitting on the grass in the park… and I told him how he gained so much weight… so anyways, we were talking…. and I admitted to him how much weight I’ve gained since we met 8 years ago… he didn’t laugh… thank God.. but asked me if I still eat when he’s at his part time job… I told him no… and he said “but, you don’t that much, and yet, you’re still gaining weight?” I told him, “I know, I must be allergic to carbs” I read that somewhere, and I’m starting to think it’s true… he said we should start playing sports… I agreed… he said we should start playing tennis, since he used to play that back in HS I said, I don’t know if I know how to play that, but they taught us that in HS… so he said we’ll buy some rackets and play tennis… He said, maybe we’re not active enough… maybe so… he’s gained double of what I gained… and when I proposed that we stop eating rice, he said we can’t do that… he told me to stop cooking… but how? what is he going to eat for lunch? for dinner?

my weight has been on mind lately… I don’t like shopping for clothes anymore because they don’t fit…

well, we’ll see… I’d like to say I’m really going to try and cut back… be more active… we’ll see how it goes…
