Hi Dear! I was not happy at worked today: there’s little bit a misunderstand or I was confuse because, why some people don’t tell me a words straightly into my face and people talked a lot behind your back negatively. Grrr pissed me off and I feel lose my respect this type of person. Anyhow, in the other side I’m trying to calm down and forget those as not happen. Of course, it’s Friday and weekend I want to enjoyed with family.

Today, I had amazing lunch with my husband and met his student at the Chinese’s restaurant. So, here are the foods. I think food makes me happy, hahaha.

 When I am at worked I don’t like to look the clock because it’s annoying if you see the time so slow. If I had not much work to do, time passed very slowly. 

My friend brought lasagna at worked and she did invite us to come for lunch with her. Lasagna was delicious ^-^

When I got home. My mother-in-law gives another stuff from clinique. She was bought a facial cream and had with some Bonus.

halloween party and grocery shopping

 Last Friday, My family and Friend are went to the Halloween party in Clinton about 4 hours total for back and forth trip. Anyhow, I am so glad husband agreed to drive that long. Because, myself I do not like to drive in the interstate but, I love to go see more friends and any events are fun especially kids.

There’s a bunch of Filipino food and of course, they ordered roasted pig for everyone. Then, after the party we also had food to take home so, worth to come that kind of events because, besides of tons of food. You can also meet new friends.

 

In Sunday, My husband asked me if I could go to grocery shopping since, were need some food for the week. Going grocery shopping is not fun at all besides; spending a lot of money I hate traffic, most in the parking lot and full in line to the casher. Here’s stuff from Wal-Mart.

Mcdonald, Kroger store. flue shoot,GoodJob

Finally is Friday. What I love to do in Friday night is to relax and sleep over in the morning because I don’t have to get up early and work. I feel that this is the longest Friday ever. L

My daughter today had wearing the school t-shirt and October 17,2013 the school sent us a message that they running out the mist spray and only the flue shoot injection available. But, she happy to come home and said, she only receive the mist spray instead the shoot. Since I promise to her that if she get the good job in the school she will receive a McDonald kids meal and in owlicious is mean a super good job (she can ask anything what she want)

So, She and I went to the McDonald and Kroger store. What I hate to drive is in traffic and rainy day but thankfully we made it and now were ready to go sleep..

Also in Russellville is raining and look gloomy outside. But still blessed to get this kind of weather. It’s okay if raining whole day, as long not tornado.

I did quit drinking coffee and I switch back to the tea. Well, I love coffee but coffee don’t like me, hahaha the story is when I get drunk a lot of coffee I noticed that makes cause me of headache because my body system is not strong enough to fight the coffin. But, really this very complicated, and I totally over with the coffee because I don’t want headache.

Last summer, my favorite tea is this Green tea with tropical mango flavor. I am fan of mango ^_^. Oh Dear, still searching and looking of different tea for fall and winter cause I need something hot… maybe hot coco.

My daughter won’t sleep if without reading a story. before going to bedtime she wants someone to read a book for her. So, I'm glad she's one of my family who loved reading book.

            Happy Tuesday ^_^

salmon, asparagus, sour mango and donut

Hi Love ^_^ Last Friday, I cooked Salmon fish and asparagus for family dinner but, Daughter and I indeed up only two people in the table eating dinner. Because, when I got home from work. My mother-in-law went to Branson for road trip with friend.  My stepson busy to focus in his exam and homework and my husband home late since he need to finish up a some projects at school so, pretty much busy: _(

I invite my friends to have green and sour mango (native Philippines mango) with little fried shrimp (uyap). It’s been long times haven’t taste this fruits since I left in the Philippines in 2010. Until I found it in the Mexican store and fortunate it taste similar, except they are already in the bottle (like pickled mango). 

The donut didn’t last two hours, hahaha. My stepson bought a dozen donut and this for family breakfast. But, guess what when I woke up in the morning to have a breakfast. Donut is only 3 pieces left. Instead grabbing all. I only get one piece for one dozen. Poor husband, he was starving from working whole day that’s why he ate a bunch of it. Donut was really delicious. Were going to have another dozen in weekend. Donut weekend until get everyone satisfy.
