For the past years, my husband and I have been driving by Clearlake Oaks everytime we camp at Fort Bragg. I’ve always wanted to stay in one of those cabins or motels by the lake. So, last weeke...
Approximately 130 miles away from home, here in a romantic resort in Clear Lake, Lake, CA. It’s a perfect day to just sit back, relax and enjoy a cup of tea with dear hubby. I will be writing a...
Gift cards and gift certificates may not be the most personalized gifts one can receive for Christmas or birthdays but they are probably one of a few practical ones. I personally love receiving them....
With the tragedy that just happened in my hometown/ country, I felt so gloomy today. I went out to brunch and watched The Descendants with hubby to ease the blues. The movie was simple but with great...

A few years ago my stepmother-in-law handed me down her old Joseph Magnin suede coat. It’s been lurking in my closet, never been used. I love vintage clothing on other people but I never really ventu...

It’s one of my close friends, Cathy’s birthday a week ago but because it’s always hard to find time that works for everybody, we didn’t get to celebrate it ’til yesterd...
November 24th, 2:00 PM, Collins Lake recreation area, Marysville, CA. It wasn’t a typical place to be on thanks giving day but, there I was in a cold rainy evening with family and friends in front of...
Picked up my keys…drove up to the mountains If I didn’t, I would have missed these…. Rest is not idleness, and to lie sometimes on the grass under trees on a summer’s day, lis...
Nothing much exciting going on in the household today except for football which I am not a big fan of. Since I promised to show the stuff that I purchased from the thrift store last week, I have to b...
I don’t know if you can tell that these boots are worth $10.00. Yes, they are! I never thought I would ever pay $10.00 for a pair of boots nor would I fall in love with one. I bought them at R...
I was going through my old photos and found these pretty pictures of Panglao Island. I thought about posting them here just to show how beautiful this place is and to give you ideas about a great va...
It’s 50°F, breezy and gloomy. Yes I know it’s only 50° but it really feels like it’s in the low 30′s; however, that didn’t stop me from getting out and making my Saturda...
As I mentioned on my previous post, I don’t get to wear casual clothes as often as I used to anymore because my job requires me to wear a uniform. Not my favorite. So whenever I have the chance...

Here’s a fridge magnet my hubby bought me Okay, it may be a bit of exaggeration to call myself a shoe fetish but I do love shoes, and so do most women I know. My husband calls me Imelda Marcos ...
Another day of job orientation’s done. I have never watched 6 hour videos in 2 consecutive days. I should have brought popcorn and soda with me . It surely made my back sore. Hey, I’m not complaining...
I’ve been eyeing on this beautiful fiery red jade and sterling silver ring online, for months. At first I was hesitant to place my order due to a few negative reviews. Several days ago, I stumb...
It has been a long day. I was offered a new job and today is my first day of orientation- one day of just sitting there, watching videos. Sounds fun huh? Just when I thought I was all done, I was tol...

It’s a nice day outside. The sun is out and the breeze is gentle- my perfect fall day . I feel like faded jeans and a sleeveless blouse under a sweater are great for this kind of weather. Black...
