The Shopaholic In Me

It has been a buzz in Twitterlandia with my online friends for the past few weeks. All mommies are wanting to get hold of these cute animal bags for their sons and daughters. I wasn’t spared to the trend. I also indulge myself to buy for my two girls. It was hard to choose what design to get as I want to buy all of them. I asked each my girls to choose what they like and instantly Bianca said she likes the Penguin…

Margaux of course would choose something in pink, so I got the mouse for her…

Both bags are so cute. In fact, the other designs are lovely too.

Now, the husband complains that I always buy for the girls but I seldom do get something for him. Oh, he was just teasing because he actually just want me to get him new sport tees from coogi. Let me check the site and spoil my man this time

I always get queries from clients on what to give their male principal sponsors and even their male entourage. Sometimes, I am really lost with ideas already aside from the usual wines, pens and neckties as options . Recently, I came across these nice Gift Baskets for Men. I didn’t realize that these goodies could actually be great present for men especially those sugar-free sweets and savories. I also like those coffee inspired gift basket.  Glad such options are now available in the market.

Yes, someone really likes these easy stride training Reebok shoes.

The husband is requesting me to get him these shoes.  He actually re-enrolled himself to the gym.  I hope this would be lasting for more than 3 months unlike his previous enrollment.  But I have high hopes he could really lose some weight and get healthier again. I just need to support him well so I better be looking for healthier meal plans as well.  Besides, I also need to lose some weight too.

I am still not done with my christmas shopping. I think I need to allot few more days to actually finish everything. I am loosing some ideas on what to give to teenage nephews. Any suggestions? I saw some nice jackets from Jimmy Jazz. I wonder if my nephews would actually like those coogi clothing but they are just so cute. In fact, they offer great discounts and even guarantees that items would be shipped before christmas. I particularly love their men’s outwears. Saw something that my husband would even like.

The husband woke me up early this morning as he wanted to go to the mall to buy something. At first, he actually didn’t want to divulge yet what he plans to buy. I was secretly hoping it was for me but he was asking me to come with him in a wrong mall if what he planned to purchase was for me. I was hoping it would be in greenbelt 4 or 5, lol! But instead he dragged me to SM Megamall. We arrived early than expected since there was no traffic at all and the mall opened at 12nn. We were there a little before 11am. Anyway, he already told me while we were waiting in the car that he plans to buy something for the house. Thought, he might be thinking to replace all our lighting inside as he was telling me about using some LED lights already. Oh well, it wasn’t a simple purchase actually but after looking for his choices for hours, (yes, took him forever!) he got a new home theater system.

My CC had so much beating as well during our time in the mall because as he was practically comparing his options, I got my free time to move around in the home department area.  I got few stuff for the house too.

The shopping today was totally for our loving abode.

Argh!  I got a flat tire this morning.  What a bad timing as I was rushing to a meeting actually.  I hit a big hole in one of the fly overs going to the Central Business District.  And next thing I knew, my wheels were wiggling.  I had to rush to the nearby gas station. Good thing, were were members of roadside assistance club, so emergencies like this isn’t much of a concern.  I had to wait though for a little less than an hour before the towing service arrived.  Apparently, the gas station I went to doesn’t have vulcanizing so the car had to be towed to a tire repair shop.  And it wasn’t just a repair actually, had to change to a new tire.  Yes, that was a entirely a bad tire. Oh, this is just pathetic. I even had to cancel meetings because of it!

The husband has really been a basketball fan since he was a kid. In fact, until now, there’s no day that has passed without him checking out NBA either on TV or the internet. Of course, he was sharing to me the news that Lebron James is actually moving to Miami Heat. He wasn’t happy with that decision since he was hoping that Lebron will pick out New York among his offers. But he was excited to tell me about the improved fashion of his favorite basketball stars. We are both wondering if parish clothing of Jimmy Jazz has something to do with that, since most of them wore rocker hoodies, printed tees, jeans that exudes hip-hop during the basketball draft. Yes, he is also concerned about images of these NBA basketball stars. Definitely, a true fan!

will be the arrival of our “new baby.” Before I even post the nice stuff I got from the recent US trip, let me complete first all the documents that I need to sign to finalize the details of its arrival, otherwise, the husband would not be happy when he gets back tonight and all documents are not yet fixed. Good thing, I already checked as well about wholesaleinsurance.net so we are now good to sign the policies. Husband is so excited for it. I can tell. He’s happier for it rather than the “gift” he got me on my birthday! lol!

There is a thought of getting a new car. Thinking to upgrade now to a bigger SUV. The husband and I are still under debate.  One consideration would be an American SUV.  It is a well known fact that Ford has been producing top-quality vehicles over the past years. We are trimming down our options to few brands and model and a Ford Explorer is one of them. I just wonder if the Ford Accessories would be widely available here even outside the regular service centers. I’m kinda hesitant initially about it. But the husband said that most of the parts now can even be ordered online. He discovered that shopping for accessories and parts are now made easy by CARid. The company accepts all forms of payment.  It can be via credit card (visa or mastercard), google checkout, even Pay pal, they do accept.  Also, based on reviews and testimonials of clients, their staff are known to be knowledgeable of all their products.  In fact, their website is even easy to navigate.  Placing an order is easy since you can search by vehicle, by model or by product you are looking for.  They have multiple warehouses as well so they carry even those hard to find parts.  Even car upgrades or aesthetic parts that can make a Ford car look fuller are now available since it is one stop shop. From dash kits, to chromes, to grills and spoilers, they do have those available.  They even have price match and easy return policy.  With this consideration, we are also now open on the option of getting a Ford SUV.  We haven’t come with the final decision yet since we also need to work on our budget.   But a new vehicle would be a major investment so we really have to review our options carefully.

While traveling along EDSA this morning, I saw this very funny billboard of a hot Brazilian model (who could probably have used an enzyte) while doing this shoot. I almost have to look back what does the picture mean. The RUBY became RUDY! I was laughing inside the car by myself after figuring it out. Poor guy!  lol!  The message was sent across.  How important it is to have clear vision!  Imagine having that big tattoo of a name of a male person at the back of a hot guy?!  lol!

With just a little over a month before our trip to the US, i am all geared up for it. Already thinking to get additional memory for our digital cameras (both for our Sony Cyber Shot point and shoot and our Nikon D60). I am pretty sure we need those extra memory and even extra batteries to keep taking shots of our good times there.  I am checking already some digital camera and accessories buying guide online.  The husband is even planning to get a new lens for his Nikon DLSR.  I wonder if it is cheaper to get there instead.  I’ve got to ask feedback from my photographer’s friends.

When you are actually stucked in the house since the weather is not at all cooperating for you to go out, its time to just check what you can do online. A new DOTA-clone game called heroes of newerth is in beta. I found the husband playing it since this morning. I wonder what’s keeping him busy only to find out that he was also actively participating on the forum about the said game. He said its pretty amusing so he got himself hooked as well. While he’s doing it, I need to sort out some more clothes and stuff in the house which we can give to victims of the flood.

As i have posted before, the husband only wants a 4×4 RC  as his birthday gift.  So his wish is my command, I got him a big 4×4 truck last thursday.  He can’t wait till saturday to open it so he already did last friday even before going to work.  And mind you, he even played for like 15minutes in our lawn area while the kids were chasing it.  This is his new toy…

Happy Birthday again Babes!  Glad you like my simple gift!

Have you heard in the news last night about this new invention on electric cigarette? Amazing huh! Although I am still not into it but I just find it interesting and could be a good option for those who are having a hard time quitting this habit. Well, based on the information in the news, this kind of device is non-flammable but gives someone an actual smoking experience without any intake of any toxins. Sounds interesting? Yes, it even passed CE and ROHS certifications, making it a safe cigarette that still retains the cigarette taste. Using this can actually make one save a lot in terms of cost and also still keep you healthy, Hmm, I really hope so! Though, I think, I’m still not into it.

Not, it’s not another bag, lol!  But it is just for the husband.  He was very happy for this early christmas present which he chose himself!

The Nikon D60!

 I look forward to his great photos, with me and the kids as his favorite subjects!
