weekly roundup

happy 1st of November! and now time for another weekly roundup.

Well, I'll just give a summary of what happened in my week. tuesday morning I was heading back home from Walmart at Pearl City, as I was driving in the road I noticed a chunk of metal laying on the middle of my lane, it was too late to change lanes since there were lots of vehicles on the other side so I took the chance and heard a loud thug sound underneath. When I got the chance to park our van, I hurriedly took a look underneath if there was any damage at all. thank goodness, nothing happened to my car.

a few hours later after fetching my son up from school and my hubbykins when we were driving home all of a sudden the engine sounded funny! a bit later, we found leaks and they had to tow our van away since it wasn't safe to drive it! the next day they reported that it was a huge damage and it costs $2,400, so we called geico and everything went ok, at first they told us that we were going to pay $500 then the next hour we needed to pay $1,000! but they assured us that they will do everything they can to low it down a bit since 1,000 is too much. so we have a rental car at the moment. I'm telling you, our van is suffering from one accident to another. and with the expenses we are having at the moment, I am not gonna shop for material things just yet. I feel bad and I hate to shop when I know we need to pay for a lot of things, you know what I'm talking about. =(

Nathan had a field trip at Aloun farms and presented me with his lil cute pumpkin. I carved it the next day, here it is!






yesterday was a fun day! I worked in the morning from 10 to 4, a lot of people dressed up, a few witches here and there, bagger wore a zorro costume, one cashier she was african-american of course but she was cute coz she had a marilyn monroe costume, a gorgeous one I may say =). one spent $800 (heck no!) for a costume, he was around 18 or 19 I guess, it was some sorta robot costume, hard plastic and leather, and he was pretty tall so it was pretty freaky. a couple old ladies dressed as evil hags, one cashier dressed up as a vampire school girl from this manga she was reading, complete with fangs hehee. one was a prisoner who escaped from the corrections, and one with balck and white prisoner suit with her back saying caught from shoplifting with a serial number on her back, hahaa! I didn't bring my devil horns nor my witch hat, it was pretty hot at work esp. when you are running around like crazy! after that around 6 we went trick or treating by the navy housing, it turned out great since it didn't rain! you can read more about it HERE. well, that's about it! happy weekly roundup! pls join us HERE.

It's a weekly round-up!

Monday - I was off that day and hubbykins insisted I go shopping by myself since he was busy on some stuff at home, he pretty knows me well that I love to go window shopping and just browse around hundreds of sales at the mall. The very first thing that I did was drop sears and refund that craftsman 3 size pouches that costs $13.99. after that I went to the 2nd floor and visited Jeans warehouse and at Ross to see what new things they got up, went to purchase a few things for myself which you can read over HERE.

Tuesday - dropped Nate at school nothing really exciting happened this day since I was at work anyway.

Wednesday - It was such a great day at work! what can I say? great teamwork we had at team pearl! that just sums it up, no grouchy customers, everything went so peacefully and smooth. wish all days were like that. =)

Thursday - I had such a strange dream about Nate being late for school, that afternoon I visited the library to drop off the books that are due in 2 days (so I thought) came to find out I had to pay for $13.00 for my overdued books since the 21st. my oh my, never again I'm telling ya! I must've overlooked the date, what a shame. =( what a dream!

Friday - I had work on this day and dropped off Nate for his Aloun farms field trip that morning, they all had fun at the pumpkin patch. When Nate got home that afternoon he was really dead tired and slept right away, poor guy =(.

Saturday and Sunday - busy working days!

come and join us HERE!

Weekly round up #1

For the Week of July 07-July 13, my first time joining so join in the fun HERE

MONDAY- Nothing interesting happened this day, just plain work, I may say.

TUESDAY- Went to work and rented the movie, Pursuit of happyness, this true to life story made me cry so bad, it's a truly inspiring story if you ask me. my eyes were completely flooded with tears, if you haven't watched it yet-please do and it will surely touch your heart!

WEDNESDAY- tears, again! don't ask me why but I found out later that day that the monthly visitor had just arrived. cripes.

THURSDAY- We went to see the movie "Nim's Island" at the dollar theatre at restaurant row, pretty cute movie, afterwards went to our fave store Wal-mart and shopped for things we needed at home and plus school supplies that we were still missing for Nate's school.

FRIDAY- Went to Wal-mart once again, tried to look for mom's yarn called Red heart cherry chip, sad to say, they're still out of stock! ridiculous. It's been weeks. but look what I've got! lucky me!!



After all these years this is my first time getting something out of a vending machine! me and hubby never had any lucks on those toy vending machines, we always waste a lot of money on it and it'll only leave you frustrated because the metal hand wouldn't grab any toy at all! when hubby found out about it whe we got home hubby was amazed and he said it was almost impossible to get one, he even joked that I probably bought it somewhere and asked Nate where I bought it =P.

SATURDAY and SUNDAY- nothing has happened for these 2 days, so here I end my round up.
