Yes, run to the outlet now and indulge your self for a new bag! hahahha You can get up to 70% off sometimes. I remember saying to my husband that I should go to the outlet and buy bag every pay day. hahaha He just smiles and shake his head. lol Meaning no.. but it’s up to me.  

If I calculate the time I spent in shopping for women’s dresses, that will be equivalent to 10% of my time a day! Yes, that’s how crazy and addictive I am in shopping clothes. I even know when my favorite site will have new styles, when do they release new stuff, and even when they will release the sales online before the announcement hit the emails. Just few more pounds and I will be more comfortable buying clothes.. I actually need to change my wardrobe.

I can’t wait to get this dress in size 6/8:

I don’t know if I should feel happy and rejoice about no furlough this Friday. I really have no reason to complain because even I go to work, I will be paid. However, I like the extra time off on Fridays. I already scheduled things for tomorrow and that includes shopping for patio cushions and clothes for kids. There is too much going on with the state of California. I care.. but not that much to make me anxious of things for tomorrow.

I downloaded a software from Ikea’s website to design my daughter’s room. It’s really cool! You can actually see the layout with the 3D dimension view and also the cost. I know that my husband will not agree on the design I’m doing because he favors to have log furniture type for her bed but I have a metal frame bunkbed. lol

I cannot finalize the design because of the measurement, I haven’t taken the exact measure of the window and the door. I need to ask hubby’s help to do it for me.

This is what he wanted, looks very sturdy:

We/me decided to do a mini make over on our daughter’s room. She is growing up and I know that sleep over is bound to happen very soon. Therefore, I want to rearrange everything and get rid of the furniture she have right now. I want something like contemporary furniture that she can outgrow until she goes to college. Yes, no more baby cabinets on her room, which is my goal. However, hubby is not sure of my idea. He does not want to spend money buying new furniture if we still have something we can use. He has good reasons to be practical in this time. So for now, I’m just laying out plans cause if I see items on sale that falls to my design.. I will grab it

Something like this is what I’m thinking of:

Tomorrow is the final day to file tax and that is the reason why I can not focus on my regular schedule. But I’m thankful because today I was able to finish the last return that I have to file. Now I can go back on my regular schedule of shopping and browsing stuff online. I want to get this pulse oximeter for my mom once she gets her tax refund. And for my refund.. I need to save it for our travel plans.

I’m home today because it is Cesar Chavez day! I did some cleaning in our bedroom, some dusting and vacuumed the carpet too. Did some stuff online – FB games and emails.

I’m trying to finish my tax return and the worksheet so I can file it today. And also will do some grocery shopping in Seafood City and need to check prices for hot tub covers if I can find one.

The house is so quiet because my daughter is away for the day for her spring camp. I have tons that I need to accomplish today.

My daughter playing on the first tablet we got! I originally like to get a Wacom tablet but the price for this 8×6 Genius tablet is much cheaper than the 4×5 tablet of Wacom. I think this only cost me $43 including tax and shipping. I decided to get the Genius because my daughter will enjoy writing/doodling in bigger space than the smaller one.

So far, so good. Easy to use and it does what it’s supposed to do. So I’m happy

Some people may think that spending $1k for a fitness equipment is not economical or practical. And I don’t blame them. I was on the same shoes before, I remember that even spending $50 for an exercise video is unreasonable for me. But as I aged, I realized that investing to health is priceless specially if it will benefit you in the long-term. I love to live longer and spend more time with my family.

A month ago, I purchased my first exercise equipment that until now I don’t think I will because of the price. But it’s totally worth it! I just think that I am paying a gym membership and for 9 months, my machine will be paid off. I need to do separate about that exercise machine

My sister wants a new camcorder as my gift. So I spent hours of reading reviews and which store will offer the lowest price. I end up with nothing yet. lol There is a camera I really like for her but my budget is not enough. Hahaha So I will wait few more months if the price will go down, otherwise I have to look the cheapest to fit on my budget. Now that everything has a budget it’s hard if I cannot follow what I planned. It will ruin other things.
