I asked Jen to get me a suit. Why am I taking an interest in this all of a sudden? Andrea’s into swimming and I want to be able to join her and needless to say all my suits are too tight now.

Jen got me a black and white color block from Isaac Mizrahi which looks so cute on it’s own. I also wanted this suit from Old Navy:

This suit might seem boring BUT it would look so good with gold and wooden accessories.  Don’t you agree?

A whole lot of my friends are buying plasma TVs, or at least coveting them. I am a bit more realistic, right now I can only imagine buying a plasma mount. Hahaha. I have this rule of thumb, never ever buy something which would kill you if it gets damaged or if it gets destroyed. Don’t buy things you can’t replace as well.  (or would at least cost you half a kidney to replace). So by the looks of it, the plasma mount is all i’ll be having for a LOOOONG time. =)

I once wrote a blog entry about fibromyalgia and a lot of people asked me what it is all about. I thought it would be great if I showed you guys what I saw in Wikipedia (they explain things better than I do)

(FM) is a disorder classified by the presence of chronic widespread pain and tactile allodynia.^[1] An example of tactile allodynia is when a person perceives light pressure or the movement of clothes over the skin as painful, whereas a healthy individual will not feel pain. Fibromyalgia patients are often affected by a number of symptoms other than pain, including debilitating fatigue, abnormal sleep architecture ^[2] meaning the brain does not reach all the restorative levels of sleep necessary for overall health, functional bowel disturbances^[3] and a variety of neuropsychiatric problems including cognitive dysfunction ^[4] which can mean short and/or long term memory problems, slowed information processing ability, diminished attention span and anxiety and depressive symptoms

Scary isn’t it?

I’m selos-jealous yet again.  It’s a Philippine Holiday and since I chose to be on French Holiday then I am at work. I left for work just as Ruy and Andrea were in the garden playing. Huhuhu…I so want to be playing with Andrea right now. I do think I had a whole lot of Andrea over the weekend, but then you can never have enough of a good thing right?

Thank goodness I love my work (I might have to rethink this statement soon) and so going to work is not as difficult as it probably is for most moms.
