leiomyosarcoma of the inferior vena cava

I can look it up in the internet and beat my self to death trying to find out more about this damn disease that struck my sis but I’m just happy to hear the good news that she will be ok and will be with us for a long time!

This will be my christmas gift and I thank God for taking care and watching over her….

Hi Tatay. Hello po!

Hi Tatay. Pang-ilang taon na po ba? Hindi ko na po binibilang… Sorry po kung matagal ko na rin kayong hindi nabibisita. pero mabuti na lang at pinasyalan kayo ng kamukha nyo dyan. Touch din naman ako at nabisita kayo ulit ni utol. Sad din ako dahil hindi ako nakapag-tirik ng kandila para sa iyo. okey lang po yun. baka kami naman next year ang magkakaroon ng chance bumisita sa inyo..until then..

2 new members of the family

Petco was the final stop on our saturday drive after the bday party that we went to last saturday.
Dami na to-go-box ng jhowa ko. Pabalot daw sabi nya. Oks naman. May sisig na napasama. Tagal ko na ring hindi nakakapagluto ng sisig. Remember ko pa noon sa tondo na pag napagtripan kong magluto doon mismo sa padre rada ako nag luluto sa kawa. Tanggalan ng bagong sampay sa kalsada kasi mangangamoy usok daw.
Teka, nawala sa topic!
2 new members nga sa pamilya.

Isang hamster

 

 at isang parakeet or lovebird ang usual tawag sa pinas.

Tagal na kasing gustong magkaroon ng pets itong mga junakis ko. Gusto nila aso pero ayaw na ayaw ng jhowa ko ang aso. Masyadong high maintenance kasi. Kaya stuck sila sa caged pets! At least isa man sa mga bagong ampon naming ito ang magkasakit at madedo dispatcha mo na lang sa tabi-tabi.  Kung aso, nako, obligado kang dalhin sa vet para sa mga regular shots and checkups.  Parang tao at minsan mas magastos pa kaysa sa tao. Siguro kung very rich kami afford namin yun.  Pero yung isang kilala kong doctor kinakarkula nya rin ang mga gastos sayang lang daw.  Makakabili ka nga raw ng tuta for $500 pero ang pagawa lang daw ng isang outdoor cage sa isang rottweiler aabot daw ng mga $6K!
OO na! pareho kaming kuripot! heheheh!

Weekends-worst enemy of a person trying to loose weight

Hmmm..why not just title it as worst time for a person trying to loose weight? I can, but I’m choosing to name it as a third person instead of a period of time…anyways..

Weekends are the worst enemy in terms of dieting. The workdays are easily controlled by packing lunches or just limiting yourself to the salad bar. On the other hand when weekend comes the variety of places you can bring your family are countless!

 Start with the pizza buffet like cici or the all time favorite the chinese buffet where you can pig out like there no tomorrow.
Have you ever been in a japanese buffet? Even worse! The food there is so good you will overstuff yourself just because of the different flavor sensation.
One of the factors that contribute to this weekend binge is that its actually a family affair. Usually after church or after the regular oriental grocery shopping. Sometimes when we go shopping at the mall. I always managed to make an excuse to eat out.

This weekend is the worst ever! I started off on thursday with a lunch buffet with my katrab. At the chinese buffet near our wrk plc then an invitatuion came from a gang of friends for a firday buffet lunch! Fine. But here some saturday with a post wedding invite where the gathering is like a feast by itself! Cool! All my bulate are probably rejoicing right now!

Honey-do-list #637 done! Kitchen Sink Faucet replaced

What the heck! How many honey-do-list do I have?! Lol!  Just kidding!  It’s not that much. I’m just trying to make a point on some of the item on my list that I’m procrastinating.
This particular one is actually the number 1 priority because it is always being used.  So one weekend I just decided to tackle the task and get it over with.
and here’s the end result.

Touching base with relatives

I just got off the phone talking with my cousin.  I had to extend my condolences to her family kasi wala si Kakang C.  Nakausap ko rin si Kuya Amado at katabi pala yung mabait kong kapatid! Mabuti naman.

Sad Day

After my usual morning ritual before going to work i noticed a couple of missed calls on my cell.  I recognized the number and called back…

Tips on this Texas Summer Heat at your house.

We just spent last weekend at the mercy of the summer heat.  The temperature is just around 107F but inside the house especially at the 2nd floor it feels like hell! (not that I have been there for a while!)

So dear people, here are some basic tips on surviving the summer heat and your electric bills.

  • Wind/Fan turbines – those are the ones installed in your attic.  It helps the circulation of hot air and reduces the attic temperature.
  • 78 degrees thermostat setting – Somehow its the magic number for all thermostat setting in the household. Imagine if you have a cathedral ceiling? How long will it take your HVAC to reach the 78 degrees mark? ouch!

A frog inside the house!

frog inside the houseSunday afternoon..we are all feeling lazy and just slumped infront of the tv. My son is getting ready for his executive job at his summer job. My daugther had put his working shoes out on the backyard to air dry it since it stinks and also got a little wet from last nights rain. So when my son picked it up outside and brought it inside the house and started doing other things he came back to his shoes and told us “hey! there’s a frog inside the house!”
We all got startled and the girls started to jump up on the couch. My son and I had to chase the frog from the den to the dining room and finally outside the backyard.
The frog wasn’t hurt or anything..i just swept it out since it’s so stubborn to get out.
