Long Weekend

Yes it’s another long weekend that we have here and some families are making the most by having a mini-vacation. Our neighbor invited us to come along to their relative’s place far from the city. I wish we can come but since the dear husband had overtime work this weekend, we had to say no. It would have been nice to go away for the weekend with my family since the little kid has no class.

I do remember our neighbor telling me of their nice rest house in their place that uses those comfortable and exquisite log beds just like those that my own folks love to have even at this time. Yes that is what they actually prefer compared to the comfortable beds with a foam mattress that are more commonly used these days. Read the rest of this entry »

Midnight Sales

There are two big malls in town who are having midnight sales tonight. It does give us enough time to go to the nearest mall to do some Christmas shopping for this weekend. It also makes me remember I wanted to replace the plate cover of the light switch in the living room with one of those switchplates metal covers that I found in an online store recently with more than fifty designs and various colors to choose from. I wonder if the local hardware have these metal plate covers and if they are part of the items on sale today until Sunday.

Anyway, there are also a few items I want to check out at the two malls with midnight sales. If only there is someone who can watch the little kid here at home, I would be there at the malls right now. I just do not want go through the mall crowd taking advantage of the mall sales for their Christmas shopping spree right now while the little kid tags along.
