Well, whaddaya know. Maybe this house has some good Feng Shui thing going on. I feel really happy being at home, even when the HB is away travelling for work and I’m alone at home. That said, I’m busier than ever. I have Italian lessons in the mornings, then in the afternoons, I work on [...]

I love my new house!

Yes we have finally moved to our new house, a place we can truly call our own. The house is like a warzone now. There are boxes just about everywhere. For 2 nights, we slept on the sofa bed in the living room while waiting for our new mattress to be delivered. Though the hubs [...]
Back!

I’m back from my little holiday, and boy-oh-boy do I have lots to write about!
England and Wales were lovely! I’ve gained TWO Kilos in a span of two weeks from all that eating; English Breakfasts, Indian Food etc. Arghhh! It was a wonderful two weeks, although we had some “incidents” disturbing our sleep, nope, not of the [...]
Gone to see the Queen

Yes, as corny as it sounds, I’m off for my long-needed break in London. Will not have Net access I reckon, thus updates will resume only when I get back second week of October.
I’ve got so much to blog about though; updates on the new house, more food and our little trip to a nearby [...]

The weather is great today. The skies are clear, the sun is out, and it feels cool. I decided to take a walk today, and headed for the public garden nearby with my book in tow. Good thing I had my camera in my bag too, for I took some nice pictures.
I have no idea [...]
The pampered pooch

A pampered pooch, that would be me,
I get haircuts, salon treatment, hey, I’m pedigree.
Mangoes are my favourite, everyone knows,
It gets on my face, my ears and also my nose.
I have my sleeping closet, and I sleep with air-cond,
It gets cold sometimes, so I have PJs on.
They treat me like gold, my family does,
I love them for [...]

Response to our ongoing renovation works:
Translated loosely: Please. When do you finish the drilling? But what, is it (are you building) the Duomo of Milan?? Boeri family.
HB and I were dumbfounded when we saw this notice in the house. I wonder whether they pasted it on our door or slipped it under the door, as the [...]

The Birthday Booty

It was a quiet birthday for me yesterday. The HB wasn’t feeling too well and it was sweltering hot outside, prompting us to remain at home where it is relatively cooler.
The HB had just gotten back from his business trip to Morocco, and he got me a load of stuff from there as a pressie.
