Last Day of School

We had a little gathering in school since it's their last day today.

Last day to be wearing the green uniform for Nursery. Next year will be blue. I'll miss his cute-ness in green though I know he'd still be super cute in blue.

Done with year one in school....a lot more to go.

One year has gone by so fast and my baby is not so baby anymore.
He's grown so much in one year and he'll be 4 in a couple of weeks.

Where's my baby gone?

It rained


I had some of my plants quench their thirst of rain water

while I quench my thirst of Milo while raining

and get to spend time this little guy.

Friday

Sometimes it's a lot better not to plan things, that way, it's achieved somehow.

Like I've planned too many times to go this place after several months after my last visit and it never happened. I've missed the smell of fresh mowed grass and the sound of the birds and the silence around the grassy place and just everything about that place.

And it never happened for so many reasons.

The other day, I had no plans on doing anything. My little boy was playing outside with the soil of my plants. It just went in my mind to buy gardens oils since my other pots needs refills and he was needing more soils to play with. I asked him to come along and he was eager so we went...on the home, I just went straight ahead to the place I've been meaning to go which was just less than 10 minutes drive from home, imagine that!

The place have changed a little, I didn't know where to park since there was a sign to park somewhere and I was not sure. I just parked on the side of the blocked road like I usually do and waited for the security guard to reprimand me if needed to move the car. There was none, thankfully.

The place was even more nicer...there are horses and the grass looked trimmed. I believe it was the horses everywhere in that area.

It was 4 in the afternoon and my little boy was a little cranky 'coz he's sleepy. But he still managed to give me this pose...a better one compared to the other shotsssss.

I've never been this close to a horse ever since...the closest I am is when I go to The Pioneer Woman's Blog. And they are beautiful!

I'll be back on Friday...uuhhmmm...not! I will not plan, because for me planning = nothing done.

But I'll make sure my camera battery is full everyday....so I can grab it anytime.

Bravenet

Visited my old website today micamania.bravejournal.com and saw my babies photos....I miss the dog so much. Couldn't help but compare him to my current dog Milo...Pupuh is just the best in everything. Milo is a sweet dog too but some kinda autistic. I dunno. But still sweet. Not cute at all but I still like him....he's a sweet dog.

And back to my old blog...I've tried to post. Good thing I still remembered my user and password. When I got logged in...everything looked different and I couldn't find my way around the site to post.

So I'm posting here instead hahahahaha!

Post Valentine Frustration

I love doing crafty things...more so on cutting papers. I have thought of doing something for Vday in my son's school. But since there was no advance notice what they're going to do...I didn't bother thinking it will be a normal day for them.

Come Monday....I usually check their bulletin board after I drop him off his class in the morning. That day...I forgot. And in case I miss out reading in the morning...I never fail to take pictures of the homework and other assignment when I pick him up. That day again, I have completely forgotten to do so. I was totally out in my mind.

And they have announce to make something for their friends and to wear something red!

Dang!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Super dang!!!!!!!!!!!

My little boy wore his usual uniform...green!!!!!!!!!!!

Imagine...GREEN on RED day?!!! I have looked stupid. Other mothers cannot blame the child at this...so all eyes were on me upon getting off the car where everyone was at the gate.

Next year then...there's always the first time and when next year comes....you all wait and see what I can do when I have read the bulletin board! LOL!

Brother/ V-Day

Oh well, I'm so sorry because I have been so busy sewing since I started using my Brother sewing machine....so addictive and I'm hooked!

I want to try the dress tutorials from online blogs, but lets say I've done it...whose gonna wear it? My little boy wouldn't try it on even once I swear. He'd say it's for girls and I can't force him to.

So I guess I'll practice more on sewing pillow cases and the bed spreads and to cut the fabrics straight!

****
For Valentines Day? We didn't do anything, just the usual day for us. Though we went to the mall to buy the little boy a toy...his Valentines gift. I got Hubby a shirt and we didn't even eat because after we paid for the toy, the little boy started whining, wanting to go home the soonest to play with his new toy. Lesson learned this time, on buying...pay for his item at the end of shopping!

No flowers! Everyone gets flowers. I know I'm not the only one but I have this mixed feeling of wanting to receive and it's ok if not...I don't know. 'Coz flowers wilt and it's kind of just a waste of money whereas if that is converted to something else, then it lasts longer, right?

We'll celebrate on a later date. That's us. It's either before Feb. 14 or after. My then boyfriend (Hubby) don't want to celebrate with everyone and he's reasoning, it's doesn't have to be Valentines day to show someone that you love them. I do agree!

Ciao! Am picking up little boy from school and no class on Friday. PTA meeting...lurve it!

Be a Blogger slash Crafter

I don't know how she does it. I just can't imagine her time management rule and I know works for her, I think.

Of course I'm just talking about the non other famous blogger/crafter Ali Edwards, who else? I believe everyone who scrapbook know her and you'll agree she's amazing and very influential too.

She documents everything everyday and she never runs out of idea.

All I have to say is WOW, truly talented in every way.

CHA 2012

What is CHA?

The Craft and Hobby Association it is. And it held its convention last Jan 29 till last Feb. 1, 2012.

All the scrapbook-ers I know in the planet including the famous Ali Edwards went. And I checked on her website of the update...and for a moment, I've wished I was an American living in America where scrapbook heavens are just everywhere and overflowing with all the goodies and stamps and die cuts and cutting machine all the money could buy!!!

I'm so envious with all the new releases and the DIES!!! And the Silhouette Cameo that I'm so wanting to have. Oh the Sizzix also and the Epic sic with the letterpress kit!

The prices for the die cut machines are not that high...I can save up for that if I'm really that interested but the shipping fee is way too much. That's what discourages me....oh maybe someday I could really save up for that freaking shipping charges and have my Epic and Sizzix. Cameo is so impossible to own and it's would be in my wishlist for now.

Epic Six


Sizzix Big Shot


Silhouette Cameo


One day when my small business levels up...then I would surely dive in to buying CAMEO!!!

Gardens Galore

I've tried gardening before and it was a failure. Vegetable I mean. 'Coz there are rats around here and when my seedling grows about an inch or two...they harvest before me in the dead of a night.



I have a small garden though and I wanted it filled with lots of plants variety. Our place is small too and if I get to gardening seriously, it's gonna look similar to this down here.



Other bright ideas for gardening.





Succulents...cute suckers!



Only if these flowers grow in these part of the world...my windows will surely be filled with Hydrangeas and other flowering plants.

Succulent Terrarium

I have a fish bowl that I wanting to convert into one of these.











I'm just wondering how does it stay so clear...obviously, watering it may leave out grimes after some time.

But they are just so good to look when displayed inside the house.

I hope mine will grow in nicely and flourish.

Pinterest-ing

I'm hooked to that amazing website. My head is exploding with ideas and projects right now. I want to do so much yet confused to which one...I'm always like these specially when I get so excited like I am right now.

Sewing and paper craft and gardening as well...the things that I love. My oh my!

Another thing that is going to explode is my hard drive. Picture overdose...please, be healthy HD you are now my life!

I'll be posting pictures next time...I'll be drowning you with my loved pics again.

Rain rain go away...

I've always loved rainy days...it gets a little cold in here. Bed weather. Lazy Day. Sleeping Day. And it was Saturday...oh, and in PJ's the whole day.

But I'm not at all happy anymore when it rains continuously for days...business runs slow coz like me, I think everybody else wants to just stay home and just too lazy to get out and they'd rather sleep. And no one drinks soda at this time.

Business wise, I'm not liking it anymore when it rains. =D Unless if it does on evenings and Mr. Sun gets to come out during daytime.

I'm sorry

...but I will have to drown you with all these CUTE tapes!






















Ohhhh...I'm itching to buy them on Etsy but shipping's just way expensive coming from the US. Why are they not avail here in the Philippines? These are made in Japan and Japan's just few hours away from here by plane. How come they are sold from the US...come to me PUHLEEZZZ!!!
