Saw these swag chandeliers by Stcy Garcia from LampsPlus.com ($99.99)I don't know if those three alien-looking external fixtures can be taken out, but the shade is also sold separately...Not quite... but close enough rig...
Close Enough?

I Want: For Our Dining Area
I like this for our dining area!I saw a lamp shade with a similar pattern in Regalong Pambahay, and I have asked before (prior to seeing this beautiful picture in DominoMag.com) and asked if they make chandeliers with a Damask pattern or if at least I can buy the shade alone (bigger size though).This,...

Eanna's Smilestones
Here's quite a few that I should blog about...She walks like a pro - and she doesn't like riding on her stroller! Whenever we are in the mall, she enjoys walking. When we're "away," she goes to us, holds one of our fingers, and pulls us to go where she wants to go.She wants to eat her food by herself. She doesn't know how to use her utensils, but she's getting there. Right now, she uses her hands...

Weekend Purchases
There was so much on sale last weekend (bazaars, mall sales, etc) it was quite a surprise that I didn't give in to temptations and opted to buy stuff that we already planned to get. Well, save for this Santa Claus dress for Eanna, that is. Hahaha.
Christmas Decor
I initially planned on not having...

Eanna's Party
I know, it's a late post, but better late than never, right?Anyway, we held eanna's birthday party in our condo's clubhouse last 08 November. At first I was hesitant to push through with the party given that my Grandfather passed away a week ago. But everything's already in place, so we just went ahead....
My Green Living Tips
I still can't get over my wonderful experience in being featured in Moments (Net25, Saturdays at 6:30 pm). Aside from talking about being a Mom, I shared some tips on "green living":Use compact flourescent light bulbs instead of incandescent or halogen lights.Minimize use of lights especially if you have big windows. When building a house, do keep this in mind!Do not waste water. Don't leave faucets...
Christmas Gift for Enrique
Christmas time is near and though I have list of gifts to give, I still do not have an idea what to give hubby for Christmas. I shopped for him in HK, so clothes are out. I got a bag for him too to replace his really old messenger bag he uses whenever he travels. Shoes? Uhm, he is happy with what he...

Grrr....
Sometimes you can't help but wonder if it is all worth it. If it is worth fighting for.Or do I just give up?Right now I'm in the mood to give up.Grr...
Stressed
I'm really stressed right now. At work, uncertainty is looming over us. Much as I want to think positive there is this small cynical voice in me that says it might get even worse. At home, I'm a bit stressed too since Eanna's Nanny extended her stay in the province (she got sick). We've got no household help, and both hubby and I are trying to keep things together… he at home, me at work. Can't help...

Games Galore
Last year, I was very hooked into playing games online, as well as downloading those free games into my computer. This year though, I got too busy with work and mommy-hood that I completely had no time for my favourite past-time. And now, I kinda miss those good ol' days when I just lounge around in our living area and play with the computer to my heart's content. I found a website called Midoritech.com...
Artistahin!
Did anyone of you happen to watch Moments of Net25 last Saturday? If you did, then you'll most likely know why my title is such. If not.... go watch Moments on Sunday 11 am!Anyway, the whole shooting for Moments was a wonderful experience, but I was a bit scared of the final cut of our segment. What a relief when I got to watch it, and it wasn't bad, you know. it was pretty ok (for me at least)! Word...

Hirap!
Enrik just got out of having a mean cold. I just got out of flu. Eanna is still sick (diarrhea?). Then we don't have a yaya nor a helper. Yaya went home to attend her Lola's funeral, and will be back next week. Since I cannot skip work (lots of work to do especially after some drastic developments in our company), hubby is the only one taking care of the house and of course (mnost importantly) Eanna....

Another Week.
Another week of work. Usually I look forward to work because it gives my brain a boost (surprise!) and keeps my mind going (you know, to temporarily not think of problems and all). Yet, this week, and the next weeks to come, I dread going to work, for fear that more bad news be said to us. Last week was a temporary respite from this feeling, with preparations and actual party fo Eanna, plus the wonderful...

Wordpress Concern
Wordpress has contacted me about my other website's content, and demanded me to delete all posts that have paid content in them. As if I remember all! Should I just ignore and risk getting my blog deleted? I replied that I don't remember all posts since they're not in just one category, and that I no longer accept paid posts in my blog. Still, they replied that I should delete all. Ng...
Sad Things: Purchase of a Vehicle
This is just a follow-up on what I have recently posted about the effect of the world financial condition to us consumers, employees and the shipping industry. I guess now it's not only the shipping industry that is feeling the effect of this global crisis, but all industries in general. Which is why I'm quite confused as to why Honda still has the "guts" to increase their prices for their vehicles....

The Drama Queen Is Alive!
For a couple of days now, my inner Drama Queen is doing her work and is doing quite well. It is getting to be really irritating though. I've become more sensitive, weepy, and moody, as if I've been PMS-ing! No amount of progesterone intake could take away this peuso-PMS. Poor hubby doesn’t know what to do. One minute I'm, all lovey-dovey with him. The next minute, I'm this grumpy old woman. What's...
The Effect in Shipping
Wow, now we are feeling the effect of the world financial condition. First, there was slower loading of luxury cars onboard our vessels. Then our annual party for seafarers is cancelled as part of our cost cutting measures. Now, it seems that even our Christmas party is affected and we will not have one this December. Our Oslo office cancelled theirs, most likely we will cancel ours.
As for our seafarers?...
