Follow up: Skin tag, to pull or not to pull.

After my third and failed attempts at trying to remove my skin tag using a bit of dental floss, I've decided to try freezing it. ARRRG I'm so freaking scared!!!! More to come...

Dinner, is served.

YUM




Best Korean Drama EVER!!

Finished watching Secret Garden last night. MUST have MORE!! So sad that it ended *tears* I knew I was going to love it just by watching the first 5 minutes of it. The plot is AH-Mazing!! The actors are awesome. And OH MY GOSH the kissing scenes are like WOAH!!! (You have to have watched Kdramas, to know what I'm talking about hehehe).*Sigh*  Hyun Bin is so dreamy =)



Day 07 - Ten important people.

  1. The Kid (better known as, THE MONSTER that I LOVE).
  2. SisterDear (My Rock, she likes to pretend to be the older sister *roll eyes*)
  3. The Babe (the only person that can make me go from really happy, to really pissed in a matter of seconds and at least  10 times a day).
  4. My Mommy. I have not laid eyes on her since I was 6 years old. I hope to be able to see her soon.
  5. My Father. Rest in Peace Daddy. Till we meet again
  6. My Brother. I wish you were born first. I WANT AN OLDER BROTHER *sad face* 
  7. My Little Sister (from another mother, but I love her)
  8. My Little Monsters. (My uncle's kids with his wife. I grew up with them from the age of 13 till I turned 20). I love them all equally (all 7 of them).
  9. My Bestie, that never calls me by my real name. I love this girl.
  10. I left this one blank. I have more than just 10 important people in my life.  I don't have to name them all, they know who they are <3

Day 06 - Ten items you can’t live without.

  1. LIP PALM!!!! If I don't have SOMETHING to put on my lips and they get to that stage of dryness, I started licking my lips. NON-STOP!!! I hate that >.<  So I don't leave the house house without it.
  2. TISSUE (to blow my nose)!!! I have...Allergies...the year long kind that makes me feel like I'm the only cursed soul in the world. If I'm out and I suddenly get a running nose, I simply HAVE to be able to blow my nose.
  3. MEAT. Alright...maybe not...I mean, I haven't " actually" tried to even live without it so not sure if I couldn't. I like meat, a lot.
  4. DEODORANT. I have a very strong nose. I can't stand the smell of must, yes, even if it is coming from me.
  5. A BOOK. The longest I ever went without reading was about 2 months. I can't even take a proper crap if I don't have SOMETHING to read.
  6. SOAP. How did people even do it back then when there wasn't any soap??! Just the thought of not being able to take a shower with soap makes me feel all grimy >.<
  7. PAIN KILLERS. hahahah teasing ;) Tylenol or Advil will do just fine. Although, I'm pretty sure that I'm immune  to them both =(
  8. LOTION. No one likes ashy skin
  9. COFFEE. I take mine with lots of cream and sugar. I may have a coffee addiction.
  10. Nothing else comes to mind.

SAW-EEE: Day 05 - Ten wishes.

I'm one day behind on my 10 day challenge....Truth is, I couldn't come up with 10 whole wishes. I only have 1 wish. The first one is of course to win 10+ million dollars. With that, I can complete all my other "materialistic" dreams (like get a house and hire a maid to come in once a week to fold my laundry).  I thought of asking for more but life has a way to give you things you don't really ask/need. Like for example, I thought about wishing for some awesome super power. But like the saying goes; With great powers, comes great responsibilities (I think I heard that from Superman or something).

At Work: Views From the Sitting Room's Window


Mom, You Are So Vain

This is what the Kid is thinking when he stares at my skin tag (which annoyingly enough, is located near my only good features...my eyes grrrr). My son is 2 years old and he someone knows that a skin tag is "gross"?!.  Whenever I hold him on my lap, he will look at my eyes and say; Mommy yack? Which I reply, that's not nice, followed by my sad face. Usually he replies; Nice?  With his squeaky voice. Or he will say; Ohhhhhhhhh!!
In any case, I didn't even know it was a skin tag until I told the Babe about it and he explained to me what it was. Surprisingly enough (not really) he didn't know that I have a skin tag?!
The Babe is a walking, talking encyclopedia (so he likes to think).
So I googled "skin tag" and was both annoyed/secretly happy that the Babe was once again right.

I'm thinking about trying:   'Tie off tag at narrow base with a piece of dental floss or string.'
But I'm scared chicken...Sigh, but like they say, 'No pain, no gain!!'

The Kid picking dandelion


This was taken in July 2010. He is too funny with what we call his "thinking face" Hmmmm!

Chicken Fried Rice and Honey Garlic Wings YUMM

Grandma To the Rescue

The Babe's Grandma came by for another visit today. She says her neighbor's daughter was having a birthday party today, and we all know how elderly people can get when it comes to loud noise. A few weeks ago she came and stayed with us for 4 days because the daycare lady went on vacation and there wasn't anyone else that we trust to watch the Kid (without going totally boonker, that is). During the first day the neighbor's house sitter...who just happens to be the daycare lady's nephew, was playing some really loud music. It was HELL!! Not so much because the music was loud, but because the Grandma was non-stop complaining about it. She didn't  know what to do with herself. She was walking back and forth down the hallways saying: "Ma fille, sa musique est sacrément fort". She repeats herself a lot so that's pretty much all I kept hearing from 1 pm to 5pm. Then the Babe came home from work and I MADE him go downstairs. As soon as he came back up the music had stopped. So of course I started to mentally kick myself in the head, like, why in the world didn't I think to go there myself??? What was I saying anyway? Oh right, the Grandma came for a visit. She came at the right time too. It's laundry day. I had about 5 loads to do today. I don't mind doing laundry, it's the endless socks, shirts and  underwear  folding that drives me insane. Lucky for me Grandma LOVES folding. She had all 5 loads (plus 2 more from last week that  I never got around to fold) folded and neatly piled in baskets. Sigh, I love that woman.

Just the Two of Us
