In Seventh Heaven

Valentine’s Day is just around the corner. So have you checked at redenvelopes boyfriend gifts yet? For your boyfriend, that is, but they can also be given to the husbands.

I’m done shopping for the husband’s gifts and I am just awaiting the moment when he opens them and see the look on his face light up. I do wonder what he’s got for me. Knowing him, he won’t let it pass without getting me something. I’m excited!!!

The previous days have been busy for us – sorting and preparing the needed documents for our upcoming trip. My husband was busy sorting the documents on our steel cabinet last night including the papers we need as well the other documents that he has that has nothing to do with our trip.

He was looking for documents when he came across his mom’s nursing home papers. That made him nostalgic once again and whenever that happens, there is always this sad look on his face. He misses his mom I know, but at least he did everything he could to make his mom’s last days here on earth good. She was in a nursing home where she was taken good care of. He wanted to take good care of his mom but he simply couldn’t because of work. We are just thankful for this home and others, like Assisted living Houston because they are always there to lend a helping hand.

Anyway, my husband was sad for a moment, but after seeing the papers that he needed to sort, his mind got busy again and he moved on to the job at hand. Good boy, Honey Hubby…(“,)

I was really surprised to see this note on the coffee maker last Monday. What a sweet gesture from my loving husband. It really made my day.

We normally get up at the same time on weekdays since he takes our son, Yogi to school. But it was a holiday because it was Martin Luther King, Jr. day so I was still in bed when he left for work at 6 o’clock in the morning. I did wake up when he kissed me goodbye, but I didn’t get out of bed until 7:30.

I posted it on Facebook after taking the photo using my cellphone. I can’t help myself but share with everybody how sweet my husband is and they all totally agreed. (“,)

It’s still January, but I am already planning for my son’s 9th birthday in March. I still don’t know where we are going to have his party, but I am already contemplating on a venue and whom to invite. This year, we will include some of his classmates on the list – his close friends to be exact. I’ve been hearing a lot about them and I really want to meet them.

I am also thinking of what to give him as gifts. He’s got a long list which includes a nintendo dsi, an xbox 360, a list of books, video games for his PS2, etc., The list continues on and on and because it is so long, I can’t remember them all. LOL. I can’t give it all to him so I just have to choose. I still have time to decide but, if I win the lottery, no doubt I’ll give it all to him and there will be no more thinking for me to do then.

I finally got hold of my employment authorization card the other day. I was supposed to have it way before, but they didn’t send it until our lawyer called them. They probably overlooked it. That really made us glad because I can now get my Social Security Number, then, of course, I can now have a job, hopefully.

I’ve already started looking and how I wish I am a CPA because there is a raleigh cpa job vacancy that pays really good. But I am a Bachelor’s Degree holder too so I am hoping and praying that I will be lucky with my job hunting soon. I am excited!

Yep, my husband will have one for their Christmas holiday this year. It will start on the 23rd, Friday until the 26th, Monday. And since we are all looking forward to a busy weekend because of family parties starting on the 24th, we will have our grocery shopping on the 23rd. I know the parking lot will be jam-packed by then, but that is the only time that we could do it. It will be worse on the weekend, I believe.

But even though the stores will be crowded, I do look forward to our grocery shopping because I will include chocolates that I am going to put on our dining table. I told my boys not to touch the chocolates until the New Year. LOL. But I doubt if that would be possible. (“,)

A good friend of my family is a photographer. He always posts wedding photos of his clients on Facebook which is one thing that I look forward to seeing. Looking at wedding photos is one thing that really interests me.

I’ve been here in the land of Uncle Sam for a year now and I haven‘t attended a wedding yet. My stepdaughter is still single. I hope she will get married soon so I will be able to witness one. Her boyfriend is from Raleigh and if ever, perhaps they will get the services of raleigh wedding videography. Whatever they decide on, I am hoping they are going to tie the knot in the near future. They’re not getting any younger after all. (“,)
