Busy as a bee

Yes, you read it right. I am busy as a bee right now. Trying to catch up with so many things both at work and at home. Of course, I work at home so there are many overlaps. Still, every little thing takes time to finish. I tell you, I am awake for 16 to 18 hours daily and it is never enough.

I am disappointed that the 2 tasks assigned to me was rescinded. It was a big amount but well, better luck next time. Both were due by next week but I guess they wanted me to finish it right away. I am hoping they will give it back. I really pray they do.

Anyway, I will post some more about what’s happening to me and the kids lately. In the next couple of posts :)

Caffeine fix

I don’t know with you but personally, I cannot go on a day without having a steaming cup of coffee in the morning. Brewed coffee is fine with me. I am not fancy with the coffee I drink. As long as it will give me the caffeine fix that I need, I am fine with it. Of course, espresso machines would be welcome should someone give me one. And if someone will teach me how to make one as well.

Bliss

When I feel stressed out, or just plain melancholic, and I need a boost, expect me to go to a spa salon and get a massage. I love how a massage not only rejuvenates your body, but it also helps you relax and feel good inside. I especially love aroma therapy massages. I frequent this spa where the attendants know already what I want done to me. I couple an aroma therapy massage with a foot and hand spa. I just love it! Bliss is the one word that comes to mind after two-three hours inside that spa. I always think that I should say thank you to all the massage therapy schools for teaching these great people on how to make their clients feel blissful after a massage.

Off to la-la-land…

I will be off early today as I want to get enough sleep. The past few days, I have been sleeping around 3-4 hours every night and it’s taking its toll on me. I wake up feeling my eyes all gritty. I feel sluggish during the morning when I know I need to finish a dozen tasks or so. Then come night time, I feel like the day went by so fast and I am cramming to finish what I should have done in the morning.

It becomes a cycle.

So now, I will try to sleep earlier than usual, wake up refreshed tomorrow (hopefully) and try to finish things that have been pending for like years! :P

Have a great Friday everyone!

Blind as a bat

I am blind as a bat when I don’t wear my eyeglasses. Probably brought on by long hours reading books and in front of the computer. Lasik surgery would have been a good option but I have this aversion of hospitals and anything to do with it. So eyeglasses is the solution I have for my eye situation. Maybe in a few years, when I get over this aversion to hospitals, I might undergo Lasik. For now,the funky, stylish eyeglasses I have will do.

All about me :)

Do you like watching old movies? Oh yes, I do. I love those black and white movies. I love Audrey Hepburn and James Dean and all the other old actors whom I recognize only by their looks.

Have you ever been to New York City? Yes. I’ve been there once and although I am lured by the vibrant, bright lights of the city, I am appalled at how people are always rushing from one place to another. My friend is working there and whenever we talk, she always whines about not having a life outside of work. Plus she still has her student loan that she needs to pay off. Now, that’s a life that I don’t want. It will sustain you for a while but the pace will eventually kill you.

Would you ever live on an island? If there is an internet connection and electricity and water supply is not a problem, then yes.

Do you think you can dance? I can. I just don’t know if you can call it graceful ha ha ha.

Be honest, have you ever steamed open a piece of mail and then sealed it shut after peeking inside? Nope, never did :)

Will you or won’t you?

Dance today? Yes, I will. I actually dance when I hear a good song.
Leave the breakfast dishes to drain? Uhm, I don’t do the dishes. I am not much for household chores. Bad.
Finish the newspaper crossword this evening? Hahaha. I always finish the crossword puzzle when I open and read the paper in the morning.
Wish upon the next star you see? Yes, I will. It makes me feel young and hopeful.

How about you?

A lasting piece

Time is important to me. I guess this is the result of losing someone you love. You become aware of how short life is. You don’t take schedules for granted. You tend to stick to it.

At home, I have a few watches that I collected. But I have another brand in mind that I want to buy when I already have the money to buy it. A Panerai Luminor Base polished steel watch. I love the simplicity of their designs yet you know right away that they are quality made. Whenever I buy something, it doesn’t matter if it will cost me a little bit more as long as I will get the most out of it. As long as the piece will last a long time. Just like the watches that I buy. Just like the watches that Essential Watches offer.
