Sorry.. ! no blogging today..! i’m going thru’ all my 300 food blogs on my bloglines. Later folks…!
Update : I had about 2000+ entries to read from my bloglines… and i’m now down to 940. So yes.. i’ve left alot of footprints everywhere. If i haven’t visited, please know that it is because i’m still recovering from my surgeries..and can’t sit too much. Lying down and reading blogs . ain’t fun.. coz’ i sometimes.. like to look at the food pictures a little more clearly. But i promised to visit asap. In the meantime, if you are like me.. and watching Moonlight Resonance, head over to my crazy chinese woman blog.. for the uploaded few. that i found.
She is just growing up so fast..!! only 4.5 yrs old.. but going on 18..!! she would put on make up for Keegan, her babysitter. But she would indulge her… and she wants to put on make up too.. if we let her.
She had asked several times.. if she could have some make up too.. for children. .. but i said no. She didn’t argue.. but just sounded and looked disappointed.
In fact, she did Keegan’s make up pretty well too.
Handsome right..???!!!?? muahahhaha!!! no lah..!! my g/fs asked me.. wah.!!! how come you like hairy man..???!!!?? but i do..!! what can i do right..?? plus i cannot be with someone who is smaller size than I.. else i donch feel protected leh. PB can be very stylo malo if he wants to be… and he is not into fashion at all.. or dressing up well. He just wears whatever.. and not into pleasing the other person. His attitude very “apa tidak” attitude when it comes to looks. Fortunately, for me.. he is like that.. else i gotta dress up every day every minute “mati lah”. So tell me.. what type of man is yours..?? must know how to drive..?? must wear branded stuff..?? must know how to hold a conversation..?? hairy..?? sexy..?? botak..?? come .. share, share.
Well… i haven’t grown any taller.. ! but i’ve seen the surgeon … dr murphy.. for a follow up for my operation. And Chloe is silly with her fries.. and even though she now eats nuggets.. she will only eat at the most 1.5 and the whole bag of fries. And of course during the weekend besides the beach with the brat, my mother in law also indulged me .. with my photo snapping of their organic vegies and fruits. And I had to say my mind.. about elite blogger Xia Xue too. And in the meantime.. can’t get enough of Moonlight Resonance and wondering if i should just download it and share it with everyone on my blogs..?? And very busy at work. .although no sign of Bin Ladin Lookalike… and he didn’t come in with another $50 for PB. That kinda sums up my week. What about yours..??
A long time girlfriend of mine, has moved from Australia back to USA and then from USA to Singapore… and from Singapore back to Connecticut.. and from Connecticut to San Fransisco. And she is moving again .. because her husband had another offer with another bigger company. This time to New York and I guess she is using New York Moving Company to help her relocate. The last time, I know she did it on her own.. and she was pretty pregnant then . and she wasn’t really happy at all. This time, she was just gonna leave it to the professionals.
Ok..! i’m really sorry.. but you will be hearing alot about my quest to find a car for myself.. in the next few months. Now that my health is on the road to recovery and my immigration papers all done and settled, it’s time i become more mobile..! Our current’s car a/c compressor isn’t the greatest, so i’ll be sure to check that out first when i buy my previously owned car.
In another 1.5 weeks .. we will be going thru’ some separation anxiety with the brat and I, yours truly. Yes, for those who are not aware of this .. my brat is a BIG gal now.. !! she is going to school… but not even 5 years old. She is going to real school.. not kindergarten or pre-school or nursery or day care. She will be in French Immersion .. and will be in Grade Primary. We sent her for the “ready, get set, go” program earlier this month..and she did wonderfully… but not without some separation from me and not her. Yes.. ! she was the brave one.
Advice from some blogging mummies that i picked up on .. was not to show that you were anxious nor worried.. and to let her go to school happily. So i put on a brave front.. and let her go happily to school. My mother in law had teased me about that.. before she left for school.. but we did pretty well. So if you have kids going to school this fall, this is my survival guide for just cross reference.
A few days before school start. .drive her to school.. . and tell her what is going to happen.. what time she will be waking up.. what time she will be going to school. .and so forth. Walk her thru’ the routine.. and of course tell her how much fun it is going to be.. and that you will be right outside waiting for her.. once school is over.. .and you will be there to pick her up.. ON TIME. More tomorrow.. eh..
In a town full of fishermen it is not surprising to see trucks on the road all the time. But I guess it shouldn’t be of any surprise to me since the trucks are used to nets and lobster pots down to the wharf and back. I have also heard stories of our fishermen paying for their new GMC trucks in cash. I’m pretty sure owners at New GMC Manchester NH would love some customers like this too.
I know of someone who could use a new GMC truck instead of his old beat up one! And that is Grampie..! I bet my father-in-law would love the all new GMC Sierra, it’s quiet and has a spacious interior so delivering vegies and fruits to our local stores would be a lot easier and more enjoyable. Plus with the Active Fuel Management it must mean that it is not quite that expensive to run as compared to that old beat up truck he now uses. And Richard, my brother-in-law, had mentioned about the towing capacity of this all new Sierra and how it can handle just about any job. It would be very handy for his current project of building his own cabin.
Oh boy..!! this must be the second time i saw PB carrying another kid .. besides our own brat. Priceless eh..?? Isn’t Ciara cute..?? Ciara is Keegan’s niece.. she is like 6 months old. .and she is growing prettier everyday. For a man who doesn’t like kids.. except his own.. i would say he was doing pretty nicely eh.
Chloe can’t get enough of Ciara, she loves her so much.. she must visit her.. every chance she gets. Too bad .. i can’t give her another brother or sister. I bet she would be a good che-che (older sister). Chloe bought the red blouse that Ciara was wearing in this picture. We were at Superstore.. and she said.. “we have to get this for Ciara..!!! x2 ” .. muaahahahah!! it was funny.. seeing her so in love with baby Ciara.
We got a call from Chloe’s school on Monday and you wouldn’t believed who called. HER PRINCIPAL..!!! wow..!! awesome eh..?? i donch remember ever my principal calling my parents. .unless i was in trouble.. or they thought that i had a contagious disease (that would be another story for another day).
Anyhoooo..!! impressed i was lah..!! sauku (mountain tortoise) like that right..?? but coming from Asia hor. .where the teachers and principals are considered Gods of your child’s life .. you kinda need to “humpu bodek” (brown nose/kiss their ass) them as long as you are in their school, so this was really pleasant lah.
The principal had called to inform us what to bring with Chloe on her first day of “real” school.. and a few more instructions. .and even asked if we have any other questions. Awesome right..?? You tell me lah..! where lah .. in Asia.. you get a principal like that one…?? So i’m pretty pleased .. in fact more than pretty pleased. What about your school experience..?? wanna share with me..?
We currently have a Ford Focus and in another few more months, our 5 yrs of paying for it will be over. PB is looking forward to enjoying the car finally and of course having the extra cash every month as well. But we also know we need another car now that the kid is going to school this fall. I grew up watching Mazda cars outside my grandfather’s house and am no stranger to it. Yes, it is a Japanese car and the Japanese do manufacture tons of them every year, but they are a good car and I like the styles. When I was way younger I wanted to own a Mazda RX7 but of course now at 43 this is a different story altogether.
New Mazda Manchester NH has the used Mazda CX7 that I am considering. And I hear that if you want any used Mazda 3 that is affordable without compromising the power or responsiveness of the car you must talk to the people at Werner. They do give you the best package along with the car and will always be there to answer all your queries. Whatever your price range or model preference, for your next Mazda in the Manchester NH area, you know who you have to look up.
If you ever meet my brat, you will know that she is such a joy to be with 90% of the time. The 10% .. she is very bratty. That is why we called her MonsterBrat..! We do count our blessings.. although i have to remind PB that every so often because even though she sleeps late still, she does sleep the whole nite.. most nites. Given such .. we shouldn’t complained so much about the “if only”. I try not to compare her with other kids.. because my grandmother used to say.. ” yan pei yan, pei sei yan” - direct translation.. comparing one for another, another means no good stuff will come outta it. Ok.. ok..!! not exactly that either.. but you get the drift.
Basically, she is very mild.. and takes “no” very well.. and i’m not just saying it…you can ask Keegan.. and she will agree with me. She doesn’t out of the store.. at the sight of just anyone.. or anything .. even though our door is always open. Never break stuff in the store.. or at home.. and she picks up 50% of the time. And thinks she helps me with washing up.. and cooking and cleaning the house. So yes..!! we can’t really complain eh..?
I am quite amused yet a wee bit disturbed when i see how some ppl would write the stuff they normally wouldn’t .. if they weren’t trying to make a few bucks on the net and to be “famous”. There is one particular blog I don’t visit nor read no more. Why..?? lets just say we have different values and to me it is definitely not worth writing those stuff just to drive traffic to your blogs.
It is nice to be known as the famous blogger or the blogger who makes the most money .. etc. But the money that some “famous” and “self-proclaimed” pro-blogger is actually terribly peanuts. I know that some ppl loved to be known or rather boast but what is the price are you paying for this so-called fame..?? 5 yrs down the road.. can you really face your children and say that it was alright to write all those stuff .. on the net..?? What is your price of fame..?? I think if i had to resort to do what one blogger did to create traffic and fame.. it would be a price too high. It’s alright .. if I am an unknown blogger and not famous .. i rather like the way things are.. as long as I don’t have to wake up each morning.. and wonder what hate mails I might be getting or someone announcing to the public that they are planning to chop you to pieces or kidnap your kids.
So what is your price of fame..?? how far would you go.. to make yourself or perceived yourself as being the famous and the elite…??
When it comes to cars, no one can dispute that the Mercs is one of the best in town. One of the very first cars that I drove was a Mercedes Benz C Class C180 and after driving something like that, you know that you can never drive a smoother machine. I’m sorry if I sound biased, but truth be told I would buy a Mercs anytime if I could afford it. I think everyone associate the Mercs with prestige and even though some say that they are for older men or women I beg to differ. The Merc has come a long way, besides being a smooth ride it currently has models for just about everyone in the family. I’ll take a GL-class since I need to shuttle the kid and her friends around.
So if you are looking for a new Mercs around the Arlington area, you will have to drop in at New Mercedes DC and check them out. They can get you just about any model of Mercedes you are interested in. Test drive one without any obligation and speak to the experts at American Service Center where they have hundreds of new Mercedes in the Washington DC area. They’re the people who promise to get you want you want.
This is the first time this summer.. that the brat is out on the beach with Grammie. Port Maitland Beach is very beautiful.. and not so crowded. I remembered the first time chloe was at the beach when she was like 2.5 yrs old.. and she refused to go on the sand at all. She has come a long way. Now she loves the sand. .but needed abit of coaxing from Grammie to go into the waters. I was never closed to my grandparents like Chloe is now and I want to make sure that my in laws are in her life.. because i know how much i had yearned for mine. That is why . .i always call my in laws up.. to let them know if the brat was sick or just about anything. My in laws prolly think i’m crazy by now.. but oh well.. that’s my way of wanting them in the brat’s life.
Playing with water.
Warming up to the idea of playing in the water after a few mins.
Awfully friendly .. and already making friends with the ppl on the beach.
GPS technology has improved a lot during these past few years and vehicle tracking for businesses that provide company vans or cars for their employees is very affordable now. Any smart employer/business owner would try to protect their assets, like the old saying goes, prevention is better than cure.
For real time tracking purposes I know for sure that this tracking device is the best investment a employer can make. It is so small, you can place it anywhere inside the car or even under the vehicle as its magnet is very strong and allows for mounting onto any metal surface, it’s water resistant as well.
It is amazing how something so small as the tracking key can map where your vehicle has traveled. Since it is connected to 24 Department of Defense satellites orbiting around the earth there is no way to lose your vehicle. LandAirSea Systems Inc is not only the dealer but also a leader in vehicle tracking since 1994 and has helped solve murder cases with their technology. Most importantly their GPS tracking system are proven to work in the field with great accuracy. Whether vehicle tracking is for yourself or your company/employees, you should check out their most complete mapping software as well as their patented receivers.
We always have fun.. when we visit our hair dresser, Francine. I swear we can talk up a storm.. and seriously .. i think they really have a gift to make you feel comfy.. and i bet she can talk to just about anyone.. and everyone.. about anything.
So here we were talking about her new car.. and the car shops in general in this town. She told us about her recent experience and we told her about ours. Francine had mentioned something about her husband saying to the car sales man.. that if she was happy .. everyone would be.. .muahhahahaha!!! with a funny face at that. I can just imagine.. Derrick doing that. But PB was very quick to reply to that .. “if i had done that.. i would be so bitched at for the next 3 days.” .. muahahhahahaha!!! which brings me back to why i wrote this… all because of what Sesame Seed wrote on bad mouthing the spouse, very interesting..!! do you bad mouth your spouse..??
The Toyota Camry has come a long way, I am sure you remember your first one, the squarish looking kinda tin box that everyone was making fun of all those years ago. 1988 was the time I drove my first Camry and don’t you laugh at me now, it was still one of the best car I had that didn’t give me a lot of road trouble.. and it didn’t need a lot of gas. I was pretty happy with it. But looking at the current Camry, it sure looks awesome and stylish and is definitely something that I can see myself driving in, not afraid of being laughed at by my peers.
I saw the 2007 Toyota Camry Hybrid at the 2006 Washington Auto Show and I know that at Toyota Camry Virginia not only sells new cars but reliable used ones too. From mini vans to SUVs and trucks .. if you need to haul stuff they’ve got you covered. They do complete auto servicing too. They also aid you with financing and have good offers on low percentage loan rates for your new or used car. Everything under one roof is what Koons Toyota is all about with a well stocked auto parts department. You never have to look elsewhere to get your questions answered as all their staff are experienced and ready to assist. Whatever Toyota vehicle you need with any kind of customizations and, most importantly, affordable financing is always available.
You’ll be surprised that although I am in Canada.. i still get to watch my chinese tvb shows such as Moonlight resonance as soon as they come out on tv. Truth be told.. if it wasn’t because of being able to watch these shows.. i would definitely have to go back to Asia for good. Moonlight resonance is the latest i’ve been watching so far. Check out .. my entertainment site for more news on it. I’ve also been watching an eating show .. called Chua’s Choice. it is such an awesome food show.. all foodies mustn’t missed it.
Wow..!! so honored..!! the Imp.. doing the mama bok’s pose..!! awesome..!! thank you so much .. Imp..!! yer so sporting lah..!! Now.. if the Imp would do a Mama Bok’s pose.. there is absolutely no excuse for anyone not to.. eh..!!! C’mon now.. email me.. yer most prettiest Mama BoK’s post..
We’ve always believed in buying quality stuff for the brat. We ourselves can use generic stuff.. but when it came to the brat.. we only buy the best. I felt kinda sad.. when I hear Keegan’s sister in law said.. that she cannot buy better stuff for her baby.. because her child benefit only allow her to buy no brand stuff. No wonder, she never did seems interested when i showed her the strollers that i would use for her baby.. a few weeks ago.
We had wanted to go for a short vacation .. if not for my surgeries.. and i’m still recovering from it. PB had gotten a set of Titleist golf for Christmas.. and when we tried to explain to the brat .. that we won’t be going for a golf vacation as planned, she had an answer to comfort us. She said “it’s alright mum, papa can play golf here.. and it can be counted as a vacation too” muahahah!! afterall, we live behind a golf club.
What a week I had ..! trying to recover from my surgeries.. and yet gotta deal with the likes of Bin Ladin lookalike..! Yes.. !! you heard me right..!! For those who knows me.. you would know how crazy and mad i can get… when it comes to dealing with this town. .and “some” great ppl. From a chicken shit for a neighbour to now.. a Bin Ladin lookalike at our store.. who wants to bring the cops to our store to SHUT US DOWN..!! Read all about it in my business blog eh.
Yes..! i’m diabetic for those who don’t already know. But having diabetes is not the end of the world.. and it doesn’t mean that you have to turn down desserts either. there are healthy ways to satisfy that sweet tooth of yours. And there is no need to feel guilty every time you salivate over cakes, pies, parfaits and puddings. There is no absolute .. no-nos.. for people with diabetes. Desserts and special treats can fit into a healthy meal plan. Check out my health blog and my food blog for tips and recipes for what i do.
I was at the Bank of Montreal this afternoon and met a Chinese couple and their son from New Jersey (I kid you not). They were originally from Malaysia and it is always good to see an Asian face in town because you get to chat in Chinese and it’s great to somewhat connect to home. According to the couple, there are quite a few Chinese families where they come from. Now that’s comforting to know if I was thinking of re-locating or doing business there.
Real Estate New Jersey has more information on the population and it is good know that it is the second wealthiest state in the US. One can also learn a little bit more about the community on this site, and of course you can find a Realtor on their website as well as see homes for sale. From pricing to a brief description and pictures to help you narrow down your dream house thus making it easier for your re-location. You can even schedule a viewing time online as well as get a pre-qualified loan for your mortgage. You can just value up a house and be on top of things too if that’s your preference. In other words, your search begins and ends here, stress free because you get all the information you need and more. Here you have people who are ready to assist and help you make the right decision.
A few days ago.. i had taken a Mama Bok’s pose for the famous Karen Cheng’s pose on FaceBook. I had also challenged all of my dear blogging friends to be sporting .. and join me in a Mama BoK’s pose. And Barb from ChumsyAshley .. was the first to send her pictures for the Mama BoK’s pose .. followed by Rose World. So awesome lah..!! these ladies.. and of course, dear Ashley..!! so sporting..!! Don’t forget to hop over and say hi.. from Mama BoK’s pose.
So what about you ..?? you game yet..?? if i get enough pictures.. i will set up another blog just for it.. or do a Karen Cheng’s FaceBook thingie. What say you ..?? send in your pictures now.

If you are her mama .. you too would be proud and smiling everyday. Some mothers say stuff about their kids.. and how they punished their kids.. and how bad they are.. and how they drive them crazy at times. Sure it ain’t perfect all the time.. but I think I have it alot easier than most moms because i’ve got loads of help.. from PB .. and our babysitter. On top of everything.. the lil’ brat.. wouldn’t do the things you say no.. even to eating candies or chocolates. If you donch believe me.. you can email her babysitter.. Keegan.. and ask her. She was sick today.. and i offered her some popsicles.. and she said to me.. “my daddy said.. i can’t have anymore junk food”… a matter of factly way .. to me and keegan.She uses words like “awesome” .. and “cool”.. when she plays her webkinz and buy stuff with the money she worked for on the game. You tell me how not to be proud and smiling everyday lah.
My first time wearing sandals this summer.. i thought it was a good idea.. to take a picture of my family and I together. Nice way to remind myself.. what we mean to each other.. and have some fun.. looking outta the box. I can never ask for a better family. We’ll always be there for each other.. and count our blessings. What about you..?? Are you as grateful as I am .. for having our family together..?
When you think of a Cadillac, you can’t help but think of quality and for me at least, the movie “Grease” immediately comes to mind. Yes! I saw that movie in the theater 8 times! Yes, you can call me crazy. But my grandfather used to drive a Cadillac and he sure loved that “thing”… that he called his wife (bless his soul), therefore I can identify with a Cadillac. The Cadillacs have come a long way from the classic styles to the now trendy and sporty ones for the younger consumers, and other models to cater to the family man or the housewives ferrying their kids to school and piano classes and sport games.
I guess even my grandfather would be in awe with the new Cadillacs Harrisburg PA has to offer their customers if he was alive right now. Here you find a group of very experienced and dedicated people who spent many years with one mission and goal, to make each and every customer completely satisfied. They were the few elite dealers selected to franchise the HUMMER brand in 2002 and are now similarly as proud to bring you this classic brand of car, the Cadillac. So if you are around Harrisburg PA you need to come look at all the new Cadillacs that are in stock now. Test drive one, talk to the sales people and of course check out the service team while you are at it. Nothing is more important than a great service team, trust me.. ! I had a car for the last 7 yrs from the same people and it’s great to have your car serviced by people who know it inside out.
Thank God..!! we are done with the 2 needles that Chloe needed before going to school. We want to think that we are that kinda modern parents… that let the kid know what to expect..and why we are doing certain things. In other words.. we like the “reasoning” part of bringing our kid up.
So 1.5 weeks before the needles.. we started painting the scenario to her.. and explaining to her.. why she had to have it.. and how many days more. Of course, she would bargain.. and she didn’t liked it.. but she didn’t kicked up a big fuss either… because we just didn’t pushed it.. we went with the flow.. and we tried to give her examples of other kids she knows that had it done.
The day arrived.. and yes.. she did puked after the needles .. and there was some crying.. but i really think she did very well. The crying didn’t last for more than a min and another minute of puking.. and she was calmed down.. and she played with the toys.. and all. More info on the needles on my health blog and why i chose the public nurse over the family doctor.. and Chloe’s version of her experience on her own blog.
Thank you all for being so nice.. for saying i have great skin.. and great finger nails.. yer all are too nice lah.. but truth be told.. the pictures you see below.. are completely make up free..! i haven’t put on make up for more than 8 yrs now. After Chloe was born. .sometimes.. i’m in such a hurry.. i forget to even put on cream on my face. And recently because of my surgery.. i really haven’t taken care of myself at all. So yes.. my face is completely naked.. of make up or anything else.. except for some lip gloss and a dab of color.
Since everyone wants me to do a “mama bok” pose instead of a Karen Cheng’s pose.. here we have a mama bok’s post. How about joining me.. on a mama bok’s pose.. where you take a picture of yourself.. thru’ your car mirror..?? I’ll link you and dedicate a blog for it..?? game..?? oh come on.. !! i’m sure you all are now.. send me your pictures.. your name/nickname.. and blog addy.. and i’ll do the rest.. how’s that..??
For those who knows our brat .. Chloe.. you would know that we have a hard time feeding her any food .. or any new food. She eats noodles, rice and tofu .. and lots of corn.. and that’s it. She refuses to eat any kind meat.. but would eat luncheon meat. She would eat fish.. but not baked fish.
When we go up the city.. it is very hard to get her to eat anything. She would eat fries .. and nothing else. Very worried.. we packed things for her to eat .. when we are on the road. But on Saturday .. last week.. she ate something.. that we had been trying to get her to eat.. to make it easier for us.. when we are on trips. Wanna check it out..?? Click here.
I was trying to do the famous Karen Cheng’s Pose.. but as you can see the mirror ain’t so big.. so mother and daughter.. here.. doing our best for Karen Cheng from Snippets of Life. We’ll do better next time.. Karen..!! But really folks.. i do look alot better after my surgeries. .and on the road to recovery. I have color on my face.. and my eyelid got blood… woohoo..!!!!
I’m on a quest to show my brat what the world looks like beyond Yarmouth, Nova Scotia, therefore I’ve started a new blog especially for that purpose. Will you kindly help me collate pictures of your world, to show my daughter Chloe. Maybe, some day in the future we can visit your town or country, and the places of interest that you want to share with us.
Thank you so much for being part of my project/quest to show my daughter that there is a huge world out there. Send me a picture at : bokchoibaby@gmail.com , of where you are from along with a few sentences about it including your name and blog address and I’ll put it up on my new blog: http://www.netliste.com/ ……… Many thanks again..
If you know me.. you know that i always keep my brat involved in whatever i do. Be it housework.. or cooking.. i let her “help” me. If i was doing some vacuuming .. she can use a dry mop to help mop the kitchen. Or if i was cooking .. i let her help me with putting in pepper .. or salt.. or stuff that is easy.. and she wouldn’t burnt herself. But of course we started her young.. telling her how hot the stove is.. so she never goes near the stove… when it is turned on.. and we are cooking something. And the lil’ missy helped again this morning. If you wanna see what mama’s lil’ helper was up to this morning.. click here. But be warned.. it’s uber cutie!! and if you donch wanna smile today.. donch go there now.
So what is the art of a good marriage or union.. ?? we all know that in any relationship.. it is an uphill task. Having a wedding ceremony. .and a reception . .and for those from home.. a huge wedding dinner. .in the fanciest restaurant.. is just the beginning. .and not the end of all the hoo - haas with your life together.
I don’t professed to be an expert .. or a old timer.. but i think a good combination of having a spouse and the in-laws who don’t get all agitated or upset with little stuff.. may be the key to a good union. PB and the in-laws. .they don’t sweat the smart stuff.. on top of everything.. they don’t interfere. The man is not tied to his mother’s apron strings .. that is a plus too. Plus, he doesn’t get all worked up.. when i am.. so we are never in the same fight at the same time.
What is your deal with a good marriage/union..?? pray tell.
With all the things that are going on around the world, one cannot help but be a wee bit paranoid, especially as a parent. And in the case where George Ford murdered a 12 yrs old, Summers, but claimed that he had accidentally ran her over, that really made me sit up and think the choices I have to make to keep my daughter safe now and when she becomes a teenager. A GPS Tracking device helped the police find out the truth about what happened with Summers. Of course, I am torn in between respecting my daughter’s privacy & trusting her, and keeping her safe. But I know if i explained it to her about why I am doing it, she would understand right..?
And no I wouldn’t keep her from knowing I have a tracking device in her car even though it is easy enough to slip it into the glove compartment or the trunk or even under the vehicle since it has a pretty strong magnet for mounting onto metal surfaces and is totally water resistant. The GPS Tracking key is connected to 24 Dept of Defense satellites orbiting the earth, combined with the LandAirSea GPS Tracking software, you can see or map where the car has traveled, and even how many stops they made or for how long, even how fast they were driving. Simply by plugging in the tracking key into a USB port of any computer you can download and view the data in Google Earth. I trust the GPS tracking systems by LandAirSea because it is said that each individual system has gone through extensive engineering and testing phases, both in the field and in the lab. Check out the clip below and I’m sure you will agree with me that protecting your loved ones is very important.
There are awesome ppl here in Yarmouth .. although we have had our fair shares of not so good ones too. But today .. we received a huge box of goodies that the brat loves so much . . and we are forever grateful to our customer for bringing it back for us from Halifax. Can you guessed what we had..?? You can’t imagine what this simple food can do to someone who misses home so much.. and so very deprived of food from home. Check it out here.
Having fun with Grammie is what the lil’ brat does best on Sundays. She would asked.. is it Sunday today..?? and when we say it is… her reply..?? “Are we going to Grammie’s house today..??” Yes.. she had been quite attached to Grammie since young.. but i also noticed a change recently.. and that is she is more willing to hug Grampie too.. and not just goodbye hugs.
For those of you .. who are not aware of this… my MIL came to stay with Chloe when i was hospitalized twice. During the emergency operation .. she came despite the fact that she had her garden to tend to .. and my FIL to help. For that i am eternally grateful.. because i wouldn’t trust Chloe with anyone else. And of course, to my FIL too.. for not getting upset that my MIL had to stay so long. I could not have asked for a better set of in-laws.
Trash compactors are popular in our homes in the west because we don’t get to throw our trash out in a general area like we do back home in Asia. Or if you live in a private estate it gets picked up outside your house everyday. Here trash is taken out every week and one week is for compost (food) and another week for garbage. So you can imagine how much garbage a family can collect within 2 weeks before we can clear it out completely to get picked up by the garbage man.
A trash compactor helps to reduce the volume of trash by up to 75% and all it needs is a little space in your kitchen or your boat, and some general maintenance. But having a trash compactor also means finding the right kind of trash compactor bags for it. At Trash-Compactor-Bags.com they have a wide range of household compactor bags for brands including Whirlpool, GE, Frigidaire, KitchenAid and more.

Grammie came to visit this week.. and got keegan to bring the brat to Toots for a treat.. while keegan wanted some drinks. Of course, given a choice.. the brat would just choose any kind of treat. .and she chose this one.. and of course given a choice.. she would wanna eat all. But nope.. we let her eat half of it only.
What happened to the other half..?? we had meant to give it to her later in the day.. when she is done her lunch.. but daddy used the printer machine without seeing what was on it.. and it fell on the floor.. so poor Chloe.. no more treats. Luckily by then.. she had forgotten all about it. Thank God..!! else you know what was gonna happened right..?
