We are sick. I am feeling pain in my joints and my muscles and I have been sneezing like crazy. The little man has runny nose and he had a slight temp earlier so I gave him medicine to feel better. We hope to feel better soon. I am ready for bed but the little man is still prowling around the house doing anything and everything. I am afraid to even close my eyes for fear of what he will do next. He had ink on some areas of the carpet this morning and I don’t want that to happen again. He does things when he is bored. Anyway, I have to sign off for now.

sick
no!
Everything that comes out of the little man’s mouth lately is No! He watches cartoons and the commercials come up he yells no and runs around the house like crazy. His toys will not do what he wants them to do he screams no. He does not like the food or snacks I give him he shouts no. I don’t do things right by his standard he screeches no. I have never encounter a kid with so much negative disposition, lol. The husband remarked about terrible two and I think we got it bad here. When he is feeling better I do hear him say sweet! or cool! but these words are rare. The other day he was yelling no because he was told not to mess with the hallway closet he started yelling oh, no! so loud that I decided to aggravate him by yelling oh, yes! several times. He ran away from me covering his ears still yelling no. The husband shook his head at the two of us. He said he does not know who to discipline first, lol. Sometimes instead of getting annoyed I tease him which most of the times ends with us giggling and rolling on the floor. I know I may have made it worse because now he thinks it is a game. The husband noticed though that his son listens to me more when I tell him something. It is just sometimes he has to let out his frustrations and we have to bear the brunt of it.
health insurance issues
The husband’s health insurance is all messed up right now. It is annoying but I don’t want to get into details because I am afraid I will not be able to explain everything fully. All I know is that before long we might have to get insurance quotes from different providers. I hope he will get a good deal because health insurance is important. The little man on the other hand just got another card from his health insurance. While I don’t have any. You might think it is irresponsible but where I came from, health insurance is not even something families think about. It is how to bring food to the table that counts and still is right now. I am not saying I don’t need it but for right now we can’t afford it so I will just have to be very careful not to get sick. When we get out from this financial mess we are right now, the husband said we will get us a family plan. Hopefully it will happen soon.
place i want to visit
I want to go to Las Vegas and see what the city has to offer. This is something I have not told the husband about I don’t think. I mean, I told him I want to go to Disneyland and the Grand Canyon but not Las Vegas. I just got curious because it seemed like a fun place. It would be another experience worth telling the parents back in Leyte. And it seemed like there are Vegas hotels which cater to families so we can bring the little man with us. The husband said there are places for families to go and have fun which should be good for the three of us. The oly really problem right now is money. And there is the fact the husband is not well enough to get on a long trip. Perhaps in the years to come. We are not in a hurry. Las Vegas can wait.
my treasures
When the husband proposed to me, he did not have a ring ready. I guess he wanted to make sure I said yes first, lol. We went to several jewelry stores a few hours later to look for engagement rings so we will have one before he heads home. We settled on a solitaire diamond ring on white gold. It was my first choice and he liked it too because we both wanted something simple yet elegant. We had to wait for days to get it though because it had to be re-sized. I was not really expecting a ring. His promise to wait for me to be with him so we can start a family was more than enough. The ring was an added bonus and one I cherish ever since he put it on my ring finger. I have not just gotten an expensive ring, I have a wonderful husband as well not to mention a gorgeous son. Such treasures, eh?
a present
I am looking for a new digital camera I can send my parents. They have an old camera which the husband gave them years ago but it was not digital and they do have to use film for it which is kinda expensive. I want to buy them a digital Canon camera they can use on a daily basis without having to buy films and have it developed. They can take pictures anytime they want and with the younger brother’s plan to buy a laptop, it should be easier for them to save the pictures they took. If we send them our old printer it should work out fine. I know they will like it, especially my father who loves to take pictures. It should be on the next box we will send to them in the coming months.
change of plans
This is my 100th post in this blog. And I don’t think it includes drafts
It has been fun updating this baby with anything and everything in the last eleven months. Next month this will be a year old but compared to my other blogs this has fewer posts. Sometimes it is overwhelming to update several blogs so I let the rest sit until I have time.
On another note, the husband and I thought about our options on where we want to move. Personally, I want to be near his relatives. He, on the other hand, wants to be near the beach. That is a conflict since these two are about ten hours away from each other. I thought the plan to move back near relatives was final but I found out the husband has second thoughts. He wants to move an hour and a half from where we are at now where he thinks the beach is better. Who am I to say no to his wish? So in a month or two we might move, not to the Midwest but nearer the beach. We have yet to inform everybody about this change of plans. The husband talked about me being able to drive on the new place, find a job in one of the malls and learn to use POS systems which I have been wondering how to, and perhaps go back to school this time with a different degree. The possibilities do sound good but I told him I am going to do it wherever we decide to settle anyway. He does not have to bribe me, lol. Let’s see what happens or what we will decide in the next few weeks.
options
Have you tried using fat burner? How did it go? Was it effective? I am asking these questions because I might just try it one of these days. I am still hesitant though since it will be another expense and we don’t really have extra for things like this at the moment. But I will think about it and if it is effective then why not buy fat burner like nuphedra? It may just be the thing I need to reduce the stubborn fat in my stomach area which even if I do sit ups will not go away.
