Dell was still on sick leave but his eyes got a little better. and it was still raining a bit so we were debating whether to do our never ending errands or just stay at home. but our ref is almost empty and we need to stock up on our food supply while he's gone. so off we go and our first stop was Costco and bought Igi's supply of yogurt, juice and snacks. and he grabbed a bag of coffee for his friend's wife as pasalubong and i got a box of gummy bears for my nephew. our second stop was Seafood City and bought almost 2 weeks supply of food.
and since there's a Chowking in the same area, we decided to get a quick bite without realizing that it's almost dinnertime. the beef wonton mami and siopao was just the perfect combination to cap off our day.
then we headed home.
and as we were about to retire for the night, Igi decided to play with his sisters and they tripped on him. they put face cream on him and made him wear a head band. so cute...

Dell finally went to work after 4 days of being absent due to his sinus allergy. well, he wanted to show his face at work before he takes off for his 3-week vacation in the Philippines.
And since he won't be here on Valentine's Day, i decided to cook something special for dinner - Balut ala Pobre. but i scooped the sisiw out to make it less sinful.
We enjoyed our dinner together then we watched American Idol.

it was kinda chaotic as i had to double check all of Dell's luggage and made sure that he brought everything he needs and still don't go over the 50 lbs limit. well, his hand carry is 5 lbs heavier but we'll see if he can get away with it when we get to the airport. and at around 2:30 pm, we started to get ready because we need to be out by 4:30 since 405 gets heavy in traffic during rush hour. but as we were getting ready, all the plans made a 180 degree turn and i felt bad because i couldn't drive him to LAX. good thing Bianca got home just in time and went with us.
and guess what? as he was checking in his luggage, the PAL lade informed us that his flight is 3 hours delayed. WTF?!?!?! but it was a good leeway to haggle with the excess weight on his hand carry. well, that's the least they could do for all the passengers who would be stuck in the airport for 6 hours and that is no joke. and yes he did!
then we proceeded to the restaurant on the 2nd floor to grab a quick bite. we ended up ordering at McDonald's since Igi wants some McNuggets. we stayed with him till 7:30pm. and as much as we want to keep him company, we don't want to be driving late at night so he let us go. we just talked on the phone until it was time to board his plane.
i wished him a safe flight and to take care of himself there.
i miss him already. =(
February 12, Thursday
i slept late so i woke up late. i'm not used to not having Dell around so i slept around 4am. i tried to get my mind off him by doing some chores. i did the laundry and vacuumed and mopped our bedroom.
but around 3 pm, i had nothing to do anymore so Igi and I went across the street. first i went to CVS to have some photos printed for the scrap LOs i intend to make, then went to the $ Store and checked out some of their stuff. we ended up buying some paper towels, a Valentine balloon and a bag of tootsie roll. next stop was Von's and grabbed some bananas, orange juice and cream cheese. then we headed back to CVS to pick up the photos.
when we got home, i worked on a Valentine LO for Igi and here's the result.
i showed it to my son and he actually said "Thank you Mommy" when i told him it's for him. such a sweetie...
February 13, Friday
it's Friday the 13th! they say unfortunate events happen when the 13th month of the day falls on a Friday. i have been a witness to one during my youth. we were at a friend's house and the youngest sister of our friend was trying to get something from the cupboard. and since she couldn't reach it, she climbed the kitchen counter. and when she finally got it, she jumped from the counter and what happened next was baffling. she jumped towards us but for whatever reason it seemed like someone pulled her from the side. next thing we knew, she hit her head on the wall and it gave her a huge bukol. from then on, i refrained myself from doing anything crazy. i wouldn't want anything bad happening to me onfriday the 13th.
but mid-afternoon, my nape started to hurt and i was getting dizzy. i knew right there that it could me by BP shooting up. so i checked out the internet on how to prevent and lower your BP. i drank lots of water and didn't eat anything that could make my BP go higher. i stayed in bed and tried to rest a bit.
it didn't get better but it didn't get worse too!
i'm scared to death!

Happy Valentine's Day to all!
Dell is not here to celebrate it with me so my girlfriends and I (with Igi) decided to have dinner at where else??? Stonefire Grill. it was a fun outing because we enjoyed the girl talk and the laughter. But since I'm not feeling well, our plan to watch a movie was put off. instead, they brought me to CVS to have my BP checked and it was 155/92. i am in the "pre-hypertension boundary". so we decided to go home so i could rest and my girlfriends decided to stay for the night. we watched "the house bunny" and slept around 3am.
so much for taking a rest huh?
oh and here are some pics we took.
February 15, Sunday
i woke up at 11:30am since someone came to see the house (it's up for sale). and after they did their usual rounds, i decided to wake up my friends since it's almost lunch time. i served them lunch (we have a lot of leftovers) and did some bonding again. then before we knew it, it's time for them to head off to their next gimik.
and as soon as they left, i tried to rest and get some sleep since i was still feeling dizzy. yes, i could feel my BP's still high. =(
hopefully, tomorrow will be better...
