Get ready To Sweat, Sculpt & Stretch

Back when were still living in Charleston , my husband and I went to the gym everyday. The only day we won't go to the gym is Wednesday. When we moved up here in Minnesota, although there's a gym here at the apartment and it's open 24/7. My interest of going to the gym was gone. I am not sure if it's because the gym is not as big compare to the one in Charleston. My doctor even told me to try to go back working out, not because he thinks I am fat. My husband encourages me to, to go back to working out. But I just told him, I am going to do something else.

Yes, I told him that I am going to do something else like maybe enrolling in a martial arts school or a dance school. I believe that dancing that help us tone up our bulging bellies.

I've Invited my Husband for a Date

Happy Friday everyone. Aren't you glad weekend is finally here? I am so glad weekend is here. Well, tomorrow me and my husband are going to a movie date. Yes, I sent him an e-mail this morning asking him if you would like to go on a date with me tomorrow. I told him that I will pay for the movie as long as he buys the popcorn and the drinks. His reply was " Why not my lovey dovey, we'll go to the IMAX theater and watch that movie, this week has been good especially that the Twins won the game last night LOL ". So I replied " Bummer!!! my budget is only for the regular theater"

Yes, we are going to watch the movie entitled " Fireproof " . And I am excited. For the last two weeks , we really haven't really spend time with each other. He was working night shift last week. There's even two days that we have not seen each other because by the time I get home from work, he already left for work. And this week he is working from 7 am to 7 pm. So by the time he gets home, he's very tired.

Minnesota Vikings Won ?

After church today, I hurriedly went home because I wanted to watch the Minnesota Vikings play against the Carolina Panthers. But when I turned the TV on, there's no football game. I believe NASCAR was on. You see , we don't have cable. We can't afford to have a cable :) . I was supposed to go to gym just to cath the game, but I got laundry and cleaning to do. ( But I will go to the gym later though )

I was not really expecting the Vikings to win against the Panthers today. Carolina beat San Diego and Chicago for the last two weeks. Yes they are already 2-0 , while the Vikings is 0-2. And plus Adrian Peterson has a hamstring injury. I believe the coach move to not let Tavaris Jackson played today is a big help ?

Now , that me and husband live in Minnesota I would like to watch the game at the Metrodome, but the problem is , most of the games are noon game. It conflicts our church schedule. We don't want to skip church just so we can watch the game. If they have a 3 pm game, we might be able to do so.

Winter Clothes

Our temperature here started to drop. In fact, last Tuesday as I was driving to work the temperature was about 39. Oh my gosh , it's not even officially fall yet. I think I am not ready for the real winter yet. I have some winter clothes, but these are clothes for SC winter, not a Minnesota winter. I don't even have gloves,mittens, hats or scarf. I really have to do some serious shopping for winter clothes and stuff. Ive been trying to surf some winter stuff online, and oh boy.. they are very expensive. I found some coats and jackets that are on sale, but they are big.

My useless cell phone

For the whole weekend I cannot use my cell phone. I cannot turn it ON. When I tried to turn the cell phone on, the only thing that comes out is the word verizonwireless.. and that's about it. This was actually started Friday. My husband worked a little overtime at the plant Friday.He normally comes home first before I do , but not last Friday. I asked him why he didn't call but he told me he left a message on my cell phone. Yea, he left a message to my useless cell phone. I tried to go the verizon's website to see the nearest retail location, but cannot find it there. I opted to use their " chat now" since I cannot find their customer service number. The customer rep told me that my cell phone has a defected battery.I just got this cell phone two months ago when I renewed my contract. And that I have to go to one of their retail store to have a battery replacement. So I asked her the nearest store and she gave me a store which is like 20 miles from where we live. I am so frustrated! I don't really mind not having a cellphone on the weekend since we stayed home most of the time anyway. But I just want to have a working cell phone when I am going to work and when I am driving. ( Not that I love to talk when I am driving ) I usually don't answer the phone when I am driving !

I Was There

I got this very beautiful poem that I am sure a lot of you may have read this already. I just thought this is so beautiful. And would like to share this to everybody. I know there are people who are angry at God for what had happened, but my question is ; Does these people made God a part of their lives? And if not, then I don't think they have the right to question or a reason to be angry at God!

You say you will never forget where you were when
you heard the news On September 11, 2001. Neither will I.

I was on the 110th floor in a smoke filled room
with a man who called his wife to say 'Good-Bye.' I
held his fingers steady as he dialed. I gave him the
peace to say, 'Honey, I am not going to make it, but it
is OK..I am ready to go.'

I was with his wife when he called as she fed
breakfast to their children. I held her up as she
tried to understand his words and as she realized
he wasn't coming home that night.

I was in the stairwell of the 23rd floor when a
woman cried out to Me for help. 'I have been
knocking on the door of your heart for 50 years!' I said.
'Of course I will show you the way home - only
believe in Me now.'

I was at the base of the building with the Priest
ministering to the injured and devastated souls.
I took him home to tend to his Flock in Heaven. He
heard my voice and answered.

I was on all four of those planes, in every seat,
with every prayer. I was with the crew as they
were overtaken. I was in the very hearts of the
believers there, comforting and assuring them that their
faith has saved them.

I was in Texas, Virginia, California, Michigan, Afghanistan.
I was standing next to you when you heard the terrible news.
Did you sense Me?

I want you to know that I saw every face. I knew
every name - though not all know Me. Some met Me
for the first time on the 86th floor.

Some sought Me with their last breath.
Some couldn't hear Me calling to them through the
smoke and flames; 'Come to Me... this way... take
my hand.' Some chose, for the final time, to ignore Me.
But, I was there.

I did not place you in the Tower that day. You
may not know why, but I do. However, if you were
there in that explosive moment in time, would you have
reached for Me?

Sept. 11, 2001, was not the end of the journey
for you. But someday your journey will end. And I
will be there for you as well. Seek Me now while I may
be found. Then, at any moment, you know you are
'ready to go.'

I will be in the stairwell of your final moments.

-God-

It's September and before we know it , Christmas is here! Have you started your Christmas shopping yet? It's never too early to shop. I am going to start shopping early this year. I have to make sure that I have enough time to send gifts. I am planning to buy a Xbox 360 for my step daughter. I really have no clue about video games, so I am so thankful that shopwiki is here.

Tired Wednesday

I woke up this morning with my back aching. I have a really bad back problem since I was growing up. When I was growing up , I liked to climb trees like mangoes, star apple and even coconuts. I believe I can still climb a coconut as high as 3 story building. I don't have a problem with climbing , but the problem is I like the climb to the smallest branch of trees. I remember when I was 12 that was during the summer. I climbed the mangoe tree at the back of our house and I was bringing knife because I wanted to eat the mangoe up there. I was getting ready to pick the ripe one when all of a sudden the branch was broken and I fell. I landed on my back , OUCH !

But I believe that the really big reason why I am having such a bad back was when the horse ran over me. I was just 9 years old ( Growing up in the province ) Me and my siblings and other students were walking from school to our house.( We walked 2 hours a day just to go to school ) There's there boy who was riding a horse and the horse was running fast. He lost control of the horse , knocked me off and step on my back. It's like a hit and run . ( Yes , imagine a nine year old very skinny girl ran over by a strong horse ) I can't remember how I survived, but I know one thing, that incident made a very impact on my life.

I really don't want to go to work this morning, but I don't want to stay home either. So I went to work. It was a very and tiring Wednesday. When I get home I lie down and fall asleep. We were supposed to go to church tonight, but I wasn't feeling.

Anyway, I have some pictures of me climbing an apple tree. These pictures were taken last Monday ( Labor day )

Reverse Phone Lookup

What do you feel when at 9 o'clock in the evening and you're getting ready to go to bed and all of a sudden your phone rings. And when you try to answer the phone , the caller hanged up. And you have no idea who was calling you. Is not annoying ? We do received that all the time. Even though our phone number is a new number because we just moved up here in Minnesota. Now with reverse phone directory you can trace those annoying callers. It allows you to lookup the names and addresses of those unknown phone numbers. Reverse phone look ups can be used to trace those very annoying telemarketers , prank callers. Telemarketers really get on my nerves. One good thing about this service is that all the lookups are 100 % confidential. This works on both telephone and cell phone numbers in United States and Canada. So if you get these annoying phone calls in the night or during the weekend, it's time that you use phone info tracer.

My Cross Stitch

Here's the cross stitch that I made 5 years ago. I know, I really need to have this frame. I kept saying this, but until now I haven't done it yet. I had fun making this. It's so easy to make, the only hard part is putting all the beads. The beads are very small and I have to put them in the needles and sew.

Craft Ideas

One of my hobbies is cross stitching. When I first got here in the US, I stayed home for two months before I started working. I think you all know how bored it is to stay home all the time especially when you are by yourself. During that two months, I spent my time doing my cross stitch that I started while I was still in the Philippines. If you're a stay home person, bored and doesn't know what to do with your spare time, Lifetime.com offers great craft ideas to stop your boredom. One of the good feature that I like on lifetime is their craft chat. This features allows you to ask questions or get a tip from women sharing their crafting passions. I always wanted to learn digital scrap booking and I now know who to ask. I will just to Lifetime.com. If crafting is one of your passion, visit lifetime website today!
