Christmas Tree

It's few weeks away from Christmas. I chat with my best friend from Nebraska. She said she's busy fixing her Christmas tree. I asked hubby about when will we buy our own. He said sometime today. It's either I will choose the tree for us while his doing some work. The set up changed. He told me that rather I will be out, we will be doing it together. So we went two places to find the perfect small tree. We did find it. It's still bare now but it will be full of ornaments when I will have the time to decorate.

Toys to Give

As Christmas is approaching, my thoughts are into buying gifts. The main goal for me at this point is the gifts for the children. I am planning to buy gifts for a couple of kids starting from my very own immediate family where I have few nephews and kids from my friends here in the bay area and other places. Children love toys a lot. When I was a kid I do certain love having a new toy during the holidays and play along with my siblings. So, now thinking back the old days I felt like I am a kid again.

Nowadays, older children are influenced by modern technology. They already like to have electronic games. The perfect gift ideas for these are toys like "Nintendo Wii" and "nintendo ds". I could just recall the time when I was a kid. My mom gave me my very first game and watch. The children I grow up with were so jealous of me that I was playing it. I was not a selfish kid so I let them borrowed it so they had the feel of the gadget. They liked me for that.

At Savebuckets, there are so many gifts that you can choose from. Take the time to visit the site. If money is a little tight, you can find cheap toys where money goes a long way. It’s good to shop where prices are right and you can save more in buying less for the money.

Simple Thanksgiving

My day started with a household chores from cleaning to cooking. There are still a lot of things to be done at the house. A number of boxes are spreading the entire abode. I wanted to have it done before Christmas. It is a lot of work when you see all of what I have. But the progress I made together with my hubby is fulfilling.

The day is just doing some chores in the house until at 8:15pm at night we went out to Black Angus. We made our reservations early for we know that it will be so busy for the night. We arrived and people are waiting in line. There was a little late on the service but we seated after 10 minutes of our reservation. We were thankful for the blessings that God has given to us this year and for giving us the new place to moved in. The dinner was good and we were happy about it.

Today, Direct Tv technician will set up our new installation from them. We fired comcast for the fees aren't just great for us. We don't watch Tv often. It's ridiculous to spend more when you don't take advantage that much. Saving some money out from cable is worth paying for the less but better service. I am just hoping that the connection in the house is good and there will be no problem about contacting and interrogating them for bad service.

My Wish for the year

My birthday is coming next month. Christmas is the day before my birthday. It's less than 30 days from now. My husband asked me about what will I want for my birthday. I have no clue yet as to what I would like to have but there are many things I am imagining I would like to have . I could lists some items in here but it doesn't mean I would want to get in one time. If I could just get one, I will be okay.

9. Shoes
10. Watch

Settling In

Almost a week now that we moved from our new place. I like it here. It's quiet and peaceful. The neighbors are quit and nice. I haven't talked to them but hubby did. I guess they are fine. I hope we will not get into a bad state with them. Our last neighbors in the old apartment was too much. We had encountered exchanging of words because of their noises. I think the neighborhood in the area I live right now is a bit much better. Though across the house there is an apartment complex and parking is hard, but all in all it's so much likable to move in.

Early today, I walked up and clean some more in the kitchen. I had started doing some arranging my food spices in the cabinet and some other items. The dishwasher is running at this time with majority of the glassware. There are so much things to be done so I can finish the kitchen today. Next plan is to arrange the living room where hubby will do the lifting for me. We haven't decided yet to where the Tv will be at and the furniture settings. I hope we can make progress today on that.

So my Thanksgiving is just doing the house chores. It's not so bad at all. My mind is at peace and I am happy to where I am at.

Peaceful Move

We already moved in to a new place. After months of research we found a place that suits some of our needs like having our own washer and dryer, additional room and a garage. It's our 4th day now at the house and so far everything seems fine. There's a little bit of a problem in the house but it's natural for an old house. So far, all that we wished to have for the price is good. In my opinion I liked it here. I have peace in this house and much room to walk and get organized. I will post pictures later when we already done unpacking our stuff.

Been awhile

It has been a long time that my site from here has no entry. My days at home and work is just giving me a lot of time that my energy is wasted. When I got home, I just have a small time to look up the internet and see who's updating who. I won't promise here that I could have an entry but when I will get the chance I will swing by and post some. For now the latest news, well me and hubby are still looking for a new place to move in. It either could be another apartment or a house. It really depend on how things could be going this coming days. I hope we can move before my birthday.
