Spanner, what?!?

I know that I have mentioned here before that we’ve got a hardware store but is it too bad to say that I know zilch about our business? It’s not that I don’t care or anything it’s just that I think it is hubby’s turf and I don’t have to meddle with it anymore. But then again I don’t want hubby to think of me otherwise that’s a couple of hours ago I asked him to teach me the basics of the business and even the products we are selling. We started at the simplest item, spanner wrenches. Well, who doesn’t know what a spanner wrench looks like and its use right? Of course, everybody knows that. NOT! When he gave me one to hold, I was clueless as to what I’m going to do about it. Embarrassing huh? Well, anyway we are done with Wrench 101, I’m excited for our next lesson! Ho-humm.

The Nightmare is Over

After 3 grueling weeks my beloved cousin finally went out from the hospital. We were so relieved seeing him up and about again. His life was at risk from contracting a severe case of pneumonia. After being operated on twice and lost a lot of weight, he is now on the road to recovery. I miss seeing him in his nursing scrubs. It has been awhile. I still have this ugly image of him in my head donning a hospital gown. I t is a constant reminder that we could have lost him to the sickness. I would rather see him taking care of his patients than the other way around. I’m just so glad that the nightmare is over and he’s so back.

My Kid the Destroyer

I know that I have mentioned many times before that my only daughter is a very playful err…mischievous kid. I don’t how and when she started to have this weird fascination with windows. She loves climbing it, washing it (yeah, she splashes it with water), okay it’s more of splashing than washing, making silly faces by pressing her face on it and lastly she loves destroying the blinds too. I don’t why no matter how many times we tell her not to touch the blinds, she still ends up wrecking our venetian blinds made of hard plastic. I guess we have tro resort to buying wood blinds then for a sturdier and more durable window blinds. And if she still gets around to ruining it, maybe we’ll just have drapes instead.

Low Maintenance

It’s true that diamonds are girl’s best friend but if you can’t afford it just like I do, sapphire rings will suffice. Until such time that hubby can get me a real diamond, hehehe! Anyway, I don’t really mind if he doesn’t coz I’m not a jewelry type of girl. I’d be happier if he’ll get me a pair of shoes or a bag perhaps. What can I say, I’m just low maintenance.
