Everyday Chill... Everyday Frill

missing hubby

Tonight, I am officially craving for ice cream. Thank goodness I stored it in the fridge downstairs. Had I put it here upstairs, I’d probably be feeling guilty by now.

I’ve been craving for different foods lately, around midnight. Weird though, that when daylight comes, I no longer have the urge to buy them. Yeah, I always have the craving when it’s really inconvenient.

I miss the husband. He would have made my food delivery reach its minimum, no sweat. I will have no trouble deciding on what to order as he can always order my second choice, as his side dish. He would be going down, and get our orders once the delivery man rings the bell.

I miss him for other million things. I miss him sharing with me his annuity explanation. I sort of miss watching gazillion shows as he flips through channels, at about 15-second interval. And this morning, I noticed the reception of the kiddie shows (Disney and Nickelodeon) on our cable are pretty bad, he would have fixed that in a jiffy.

Don’t get me wrong. I’m not crying or anything. Just a little heart tug when you reach at his side of the bed, and it’s empty. *sigh*

Her auntie-la gave her Ariel.

Our auntie Dina came to visit. We agreed to meet her last Saturday for dinner after my appointment with a Plano cosmetic dentist. It was Mikee’s first time to meet her. Expectedly, Mikee was shy, a little on the edge of being a snub. But her eyes widen when she received a huge Tinker Bell craft set. Funny because I saw she was a bit overwhelmed by it, she didn’t know what she’ll do. All she knew she wanted to open it as soon as possible. Mommy was such a kill joy told her she had to wait till she gets home.

But she got doubly excited when she saw her auntie-la (short for auntie and lola) Dina gave her an Ariel doll.

You can’t blame her to be so excited. Wouldn’t you be if you just receive this?

wishing well

Our team was the organizer for this year’s offsite. But I wasn’t able to join them when they had the ocular inspection of the place. I had to renew our auto insurance that day.

I was just told to bring a mosquito repellant lotion for our stay. So in my mind, I knew the place will be full of trees and grass. Perfect for picture taking. Just look at this wishing well.

Oops, I didn’t notice the bottle there. Did you?

I was unreachable.

When we had our offsite, the husband had difficulty contacting me on my mobile. Our little girl wanted to talk to me before going to bed. Unfortunately, for some reason, both of my mobile phones had no signal.

Those were one of those days I wished I had one reliable live chat software since I brought my laptop with me and there was free wifi in the venue. Sigh.

no photo opp for me

Having gone to Hong Kong last month, I became the unofficial tour guide of the family during our trip this month. I wasn’t complaining. I loved that I had an important role in the family vacation. I just made sure it would not be stressful for me as I have a toddler with us, which was why I decided to hold the digicam and let the husband hold the SLR.

Plus, I did not have any target shots. I did not plan on taking advantages of the so many photo opportunities. I guess this is the reason why in case we’re going back there in the future, I’d want it to be Halloween too. So that I can take pictures of the night parade, and with Jack and Sally Skellington as I have originally hoped for.

Anyway, I had the chance to hold the SLR during the fireworks. By then, my daughter stayed with my parents-in-law, sat away from the castle.

I loved that I was able to catch this rather eerie snapshot of the Disney castle and fireworks.

Hmm, maybe, we could use this as cover of Halloween party invitations? Spooky!

Speaking of spooky, I am on waiting list in our company trick or treat event. Looks like Mikee will just have to make her rounds in Trinoma.
