Cheaper Laptops

Sep 18th 2011Digital World & File and data management & Money Watch & Web Tools

I’m using a laptop that is several years old. The cd drive is not closing properly so that means I can’t watch my DVDs anymore. The keyboard is missing a period (.) and > so I’m using a small keyboard attached to it via a usb. Yeah, I’m that miser when it comes to gadgets. Good thing the hubby got himself a new old laptop so I get to use his netbook when I go out of the house to teach.

Lately, there are so many deals on laptops maybe because more people are buying tablets and Android phones. I guess it’s time I get myself a new one. Or maybe not since my reliable old one still serves me well 🙂

Signed Up to Run

Sep 18th 2011Family Matters & Health Matters & Me

I’ve signed up to join a run in November. It has been months or years perhaps since I’ve done my morning rounds where we live. Not that I am lazy or anything (who am I kidding?) but I feel going out is something I don’t really look forward to since there are so many undesirable characters roaming the streets.

The kids and I are supposed to enroll in fitness programs but since these have started already and we will miss a couple of sessions if we enroll, hubby and I decided to defer. One of the kids want to enroll in soccer and running while the other one likes swimming. Swimming is not a good idea at this time of the year because the weather is erratic and the water could get very cold. I know for a fact that these pools raypak heat pump of any other heating system.

I still hope we can enroll next semester so we will start scrimping here and there to be able to have everyone enjoy a class. Or maybe two.

Missing the Little Girl

Sep 1st 2011Family Matters

Wasn’t it just a few months ago when she was a teeny tiny cute bundle of joy? Well, she still is a bundle of joy, but not teeny tiny anymore. It feels like “celebrating your newborn” was what we had in mind, even if she is not technically our own newborn, but rather a newborn in the family, a new addition to hubby’s side of the family.

Yep, the baby in the family has two little teeth coming out.

The cousins miss her already.
