Again!

A very generous friend allowed me to squat in her domain. I just hope my transfer will go on smoothly. I really have no idea how to go about it. I used to be in IT, pero I’m so slow.

See you later.

Scrap Finds

Filed under: DigiScraps — alpha @ 3:52 pm

I was going through my feeds at bloglines when I stumbled upon the DSSA blog. They have tips and tricks for Photoshop, challenges and my fave, freebies! Their first freebie is this black and white toned action.

Head on now to their site to download the action. They also have The Scrap Mag Digital Magazine. And inside is another freebie action.

I also come across a thread in www.myscrapbookart.com about underground designers {those not as well known as it should be and very very cool}. Oh my there are a lot of good finds in that thread if only I have the budget and the mojo to put them into use. I haven’t finished going through the thread. I stopped when I saw this.

Isn’t this pretty? I badly want it. But I’m still thinking about it. It’s $11.00 {a little bit high for me, since I just shop on sale or if I have a discount coupon} but it’s packed naman. Hmm.. Isip-isip.

Monday Breakfast.

It has been weeks {or months} since we brought the little boy out for breakfast. So I decided to take him out this morning to McDonald’s. He was as eager as ever to get to the play area. He really is at his happiest when he’s at the play area surrounded with kids. He tends to get bored if he’s the only one playing.

Scrapping Update.

Filed under: DigiScraps — alpha @ 10:40 pm

There’s none. I’ve been wanting to scrap but as they say, my mojo is nowhere to be found. Though I’m always on the lookout for freebies and my nights are mostly occupied with downloading them. And I managed to purchase a few stuff a few weeks back. Mostly items which cost a dollar or less. It’s because I get charged $1.02 for every purchase using paypal (with debit mastercard). Why oh why? If the item is less than $1.02, I have to pay $1.02 for it. That’s why I’m stuck with a dollar or less items (But for super low-priced items like the $0.25 sale at DD, I use my CC.). Kainis, I was charged $1.02 for a $1.50 item! But I got to buy a few Jen Wilson elements when they went on sale for $1 each! The downside, one item, one checkout, to minimize the charges. So why not use my CC instead? I was just trying to use the load of the debit card since we will not be withdrawing the amount.

Thanks Litzie for this. I’m happy and honored to be part of your list.

Here’s mine in no particular order :D

Litzie ~ She’s one strong woman. She has gone through a lot during her pregnancy. And then another trial came after giving birth. But she was able to get through it all. I’m just so glad that all is well now. She’s sincere, kind and I hope to get to know her better.

Aggie ~ Kasi she thinks of me :D . I remember when she sent me an email asking how I was doing because I haven’t been updating my blog. I find that gesture really sweet. She doesn’t email me anymore though. She already knew that I’m just tamad.

Caryl ~ I’ve known her since high school but it’s only now that I get to know more about her. We started digiscrapping at about the same time, pero ngayon naiwan na nya ko. She’s one multi-tasking mom, and I truly admire her for that. Wish I could do that as well.

Cecille ~ One of the few dear friends I gained when I started working. Too bad, we don’t see each other much anymore, asenso na kasi e. :D I truly hope that she finds what she’s looking for.

Moomai ~ Another dear friend from work. She’s one happy person, super friendly, I always have fun hanging out with her.

Your turn to spread the love. Think of your own five rockin’ bloggers.

Someday.

house.jpg
This will be mine. We passed by Georgia Club on the way home from Sonya’s last Friday and finally came face to face with my dream house. There were no residents in the area yet, just two model houses. When completed, it will be like Wisteria Lane {in Desperate Housewives}, as seen from their video presentation.

mail.jpg
Estong checking the mailbox.

play.jpg
And playing with the dog. The dog was so playful, I was tempted to take him home. If only he was smaller.

sit.jpg
Me, relaxing on the swing in my *future* porch.

inside.jpg
Inside. The size is just right. The layout perfect. Parang nag-usap kami ng architect. It’s really meant to be. :D Estong loved the house as well. He sat on the table, pretending to make himself coffee, drinks the coffee and eats. He enjoyed opening and closing the oven doors as well.

reddoor.jpg
So truly meant to be. I’ve been wanting a red door eversince. I’ve planned of having the front door of our current house painted red while it was being renovated. But wasn’t able to accomplish it.

icecream.jpg
And here’s Estong enjoying his ice cream outside. He loved the place. He didn’t want to leave. Oh my, this is it talaga.

If only we can afford it.

I’m loving.

Finally, I’m seriously considering taking photography classes. Who wants to join me?
