The Shopaholic In Me http://lookshoplist.com Braving myself to great finds everywhere Wed, 01 Feb 2012 00:36:23 +0000 en hourly 1 http://wordpress.org/?v=3.0.3 Cousins! http://lookshoplist.com/2012/01/25/cousins/ http://lookshoplist.com/2012/01/25/cousins/#comments Wed, 25 Jan 2012 00:21:42 +0000 Jody http://lookshoplist.com/?p=2122

The girls had so much fun when they last saw their cousin, Bea.  We met them the day after we arrived from US and they just one whole day of being together.  They were inseparable.  They just love playing together.  I hope they would continue to be close to each other even when they grow old.  I hope they could still be best of friends by then in between school, career or even boys!  Jokingly, my SIL and I were saying we won’t let them take a peek first to some free dating online.  We would rather keep them as our baby as long as we can. ;)

The only think I have is actually the venue. I need to talk to a couple of suppliers and finalize my bookings. I cannot wait for January to finsih with my 5 more events until end of the month. My dear Margaux wants a Rockstar Princess party. I need to book the caterer, the stage and decors supplier, sound system and lights which should include a good numark mixtrack pro that the DJ requires as his ready equipment in order for him to play great music for the party. With all other things in mind, I can’t get myself to focus for the planning. I think I should really start working on these. Maybe, I should have a list first. Let me begin now!

Have I been naughty or nice? Hmmm, what ever it is, I think I deserve a very nice gift from Santa. But I still cannot make up my mind on what i really want for Christmas. I guess having this upcoming Christmas trip with my husband and the kids will be the best present ever. It will be a total family bonding again. But aside from that, let me think of a material thing I would still wish to receive. Top of my list would still be a new “bag.” As to what it is, I still cannot make up my mind. I hope Santa will really be kind to me this year. I also want to receive a nice watch as a gift. I would not mind as well to get scott kay rings. That will totally be amazing if Santa will make my wish come true!

On the other hand, I want Santa to be the one to think of ways to surprise me. I am actually challenging him this year. Hope Santa is reading this post ;) lol!

I have few home-shoot videos which I need to save and burn in CDs. I want to save up these videos as I am sure my kids would love to watch their special moments even when they grow up. A client is also asking me if they can give out their prenup videos as their save-the-date videos for their guests. It is entirely a brilliant idea. Now, I do not know of a supplier who could do it. Any leads can help.

We do receive invitations left and right from friends and families. I, myself is busy sending out invitations to our friends to have christmas lunch or dinner in our place. I am also getting busy preparing gifts for the exchange of presents. I have been receiving wish lists also from friends so I need to allot time to really shop for their requests. One of the most add wish list I received recently is the request to receive braided hose. It came from one of our neighbors.  I wonder now if it is available in hardware shops.  I hope so as I do not even plan to order online since I am pressed with time.  I’m excited as on Friday will be my shopping day for gifts!

I still need to get the following:

1. Thermal clothes for the kids
2. Thermal clothes for me and the husband
3. Gloves, bonnets and thermal socks for all of us.
4. Scarves
5. Winter jackets and hoping I could score a great deal for north face jackets
6. New set of luggages
7. New set of boots for me
8. Some winter clothes for me
9. Some winter clothes for the kids
10. “Pasalubong” for relatives

Well, my list can go on but I would like to prioritize first the items above. I hope I could find time this weekend to go shopping for the initial items.

I know how hard it is to get a very good job nowadays because of stiff competition but so glad he was able to grab that opportunity. He will actually be flying to US by 2012 to get his training. On another news, I am glad that my 7 other photo books have been delivered already. It came in very late. Waited for these for like 2 months. But I am finally happy that everything is still intact.

So now, I am looking for nice and perfect Christmas invitations to send out to families and friends. Each party will have a different theme so I am working on the specifics of each and every party. The food will also be thematic. Well, that is my plan. I hope to pull of these things. We will also start decorating the house so this end of the month’s break will be a busy holiday for us. The kids can’t wait for the Christmas tree to be up.

Apparently, our house help broke our existing one. I wonder what she has been doing with it since I know that the one i previously got is a sturdy one. I need to buy today since there are tons of clothes to iron including my clothes/uniforms for the upcoming events this October. Can you advise me what brand is good?

We are close to finalizing everything. And I am getting excited. Although, I think we are missing to go to Florida. I was wishing we can still include that in our itinerary because aside from a possible cruise which we can do there, I have been amazed on what I read about orlando fishing report. I actually want to experience it myself. I am sure it would be a great and a memorable trip if ever. Nevertheless, we are still excited on what we are cooking for this December.

Well, it’s already October so we are excited to get back to the groove. Bring it on October! Though pardon that i won’t have much updates on my blogs. But I cannot miss on sharing that i finally convinced the husband to get his own iPad2. Thanks to the promo of Globe, he finally give in. Now, I am not going to be the only one that the kids will bother just to bother my iPad. Actually, we are sharing that iPad2 to the girls. I guess it would keep them during the long haul trips we will have this December.

The husband got the black one…

And here’s the promo from Globe. The rates can even be availed through credit card for 12 months deferred payment at 0% interest.

I have been wanting to get a new EHD. I finally did and I got 1 terabyte WD purposely for Mac. Happy for my new purchase. For those asking, it’s Php5690 in Digital Hub. I got in Eastwood Branch. Now, I hope I could have the time to organize all our photos. I need to sort, put in individual albums so it will be easy access for me to upload everything in Artscow. I still have a number of albums to make. I want to finish all our travels first. Then move on to the kids yearly birthday. Oh I hope I can really have the luxury of time to do it. I’m just squeezing in between my very busy schedule so good luck to me. For the meantime, I need to do the budget for Margaux’s 7th birthday next year. I wish there’s this ach payments facility for suppliers we are getting, lol!

And now, I am one excited girl! I love Tom’s because of comfortability. And with them releasing ballet flats design soon, I am sure to grab one! Since I got my red one, I have been wanting to get their wedge type shoes.

But my orthopedic doctor advised me to refrain from wearing shoes with heels, (yes even wedge type as I sprained my right angle while wearing one), I would probably wait for these ballet flats instead.

I’m excited to see the nice ivory dress that my sister-in-law got for the girls. I haven’t seen the dresses yet but they told me that both are beautiful. They are actually identical. Now, I also need to prepare for my own dress and I can’t help but look at the fabulous prom dress sale online! I just wish I still have those pre-prom-weight back then! ;)

I’m getting hooked with Adele. It started when I was trying to download video from YouTube for a corporate event we are working on. I heard the song as being used for the video and I got instantly hooked with her. I love her songs, getting me into sentimental mode all the time. Now, I can’t help but listen to her all the time.  In fact, I got her latest album from a music store yesterday.
