ang bisaya

I cleaned the little man’s room the other day. Old toys that he has not used were bagged and put in the big trash can to be put on the curb for trash day. I have done this same thing several times already I feel like a pro now, lol. I did not throw away expensive toys or anything like that. Just odd toys that have missing parts and some that were bought when he was a baby that the little girl will not use. He has so much toys that he has not used in a long time like his piano that his father bought for him two Christmases ago. It is not something expensive like an m audio prokeys 88 but it does its job well enough for a 5 year old and I really like the way it sounds too. It is sitting in a corner in his room, has not been played in a very long time. It is a good thing we did not go for the expensive piano or I will really be frustrated about it. He does know his musical instruments but he does not follow through after we bought it for him. It is probably partly our fault because we have not really insisted he play his instruments, we just let him do what he wants. The main reason being he is still very young. Maybe when he gets a little older he will pursue his interest in music but right now he is into electronic games just like most kids his age. All we can do is keep his musical instruments all in good condition so when the time comes that he wants them, all will work good. As for the toys, that trek in his room was not the first nor will it be the last. As long as we keep buying him toys I will have a reason to clean up and throw what he does not use anymore. It is just the way it is.

The husband’s aunt is not happy with us. She wants to know why we have not stopped by her house to visit, or that the husband has not called to check on her. She left me a message on Facebook. Of course, she will not call first because we have to do it. Old people are really funny sometimes. I guess it did not occur to her that we might be busy. We do have two kids to take care of and our own business to mind. We cannot just spend hours chit chatting because she wants our company. I pointed out that we have been by last month to visit her and told her too that the kids and the husband had been sick on and off (now, this is not a lie since my family really has been sick lately for some reason) so we cannot just go anywhere. We do have consideration for others. We do not go out when we are sick. We stay home. Now we do not expect other people to do the same but we don’t really want to explain it to people every time. She probably does not believe what I said. I know I should not be the one dealing with her but she left her message on my wall so I had to reply. The husband just shrugs it off like he did not even care. He said we will visit but it is not a priority at the moment. I could not tell her that or she will really go ballistic and will probably not talk to us for months. I wish she will just wait until we show up at her house. She does have kids and grandkids to keep her company so she should be fine. When I think about it, we rarely visit the husband’s mom yet she does not ask why we have not visited. She is the kind of person who is happy to see us visit but is also happy to see us go, lol. Why can’t the aunt be the same?

When we first moved in to this place we currently call home, it was nearing time for the local election. We were approached by local politicians to talk about their achievements while in office and their plans should they be re-elected. The husband told them we were not registered to vote since we just got moved in and they said they understand but asked if they can put in a few political lawn signs to help them out. Well, the yard is not ours since we are renting so he told them to talk to the landlord. We did not hear from them nor did they put signs in the yard so I guess that did not pan out. The husband was ready to allow them to put signs if they will give him the signs after the election so he can reuse them for something else. Since it did not happen he did not get any signs at all, lol. He was disappointed but he said there will be more elections to happen in the future so he will get his chance to own a sign. What for, I don’t have a clue.

The seeds we ordered was delivered last Tuesday. We now have a box full of seeds ready to put in a bed and if all goes well to the garden. Once I figure out where the garden will be and how big, that is. It is so nice to think about growing vegetables come Spring. I love to see seedlings grow into a fruit bearing plant. And of course, I love to harvest. I think it is the best part of gardening, harvesting. I am not looking forward to the tilling though. But I will survive. Anyway, since that is out of the way, I can now relax and think about other things. I realized that Valentines day is approaching and that I need to make the husband buy me something. Yes, he needs to. I did not get any presents on my birthday nor did I get anything for our anniversary. We were busy and there was just no time to celebrate and so he told me to know what I want then tell him about it. Not very romantic but hey as long as I get what I want I am fine with that So I will have to make him get me something on Valentine’s day. There should already be all kinds of valentines day gifts suggestions that a woman can choose from online. Now, let me begin browsing online to see what I can come up with. I am excited!

The seeds are finally ordered. And I am happy because I got to order some greens that I really would like to see in my garden. There are two items I would like to add but I am still looking where I am supposed to get them. One is easy enough to get while the other is categorized as a noxious weed in a lot of states that it is hard to get them even in areas like mine that does not prohibit the plant. I still have a long ways until Spring so I will see what I can find before then. If I cannot have both I will not be unhappy either. At least I got most of what I want to plant. All I need is wait for the right time. I am already excited! Anyway, I am trying to read on hypertherm because I don’t know what it is. I am like this, I read up on words that I encounter whether online or offline. This word I encountered online while browsing. I have already has an idea on what it is about but I need to read more. So, see you all later.

We were supposed to buy seeds online a few days ago but it did not happen. I did not want to do it. The husband forgot about it and so we still have not placed our order. I know I will get blamed for this like always. So what have we been doing? Nothing. We have done nothing at all. Lol. Crazy, right? I have not even cleaned the house since the holidays. I just don’t feel like it. Maybe it has something to do with the idea that we will be moving out of this house that is why I have not done anything to tidy it up. Or maybe I am just lazy. No surprise there, really. The Christmas tree devoid of any decorations is still up. We could not even spare a few minutes of our time to take it down. You might wonder what future awaits these lazy individuals, lol. We will eventually get out of this funk we are in. Hopefully soon.

The husband told me we will order seeds today for my garden next year. He said to write down what seeds I want to buy so when he sits down and place our order it will all be in one transaction. I guess this is it, I am really going to have my own garden next year. Wholly my own. I don’t have to plant anything on my MIL’s or SIL’s gardens. I will get to do it on mine. I am so thrilled. I know a lot of people will think I am nuts but I do love to garden and the idea of having fresh produce come Summer is really nice. It is not only healthy, it will be organic too which is good. I hope the seeds are not too expensive though. The next step will be getting the garden ready so when Spring gets here everything will be set and ready. I may even post pictures when I think the garden is presentable.

An extended family member has filed a lawsuit against several doctors for malpractice. I don’t know much about the details because I did not ask. I only heard bits and pieces of information from conversations and it seems like a lengthy and arduous process. He does have all his medical records and reports from said doctors that the law firm he is using is confident he will win  the case. I am hoping the lawyer is right. His family has been through a lot because of his disease which could have been prevented had the doctors done their jobs, and that is according to the present doctor who actually documented his findings and treatment of the patient to make sure everybody knows what condition the patient was in when he started treating him. It makes a person think that the doctors being sued better have a good Doctors medical malpractice insurance because if what I have heard is to be believed, they will be paying a lot of money. The patient personally just wants to feel better so he can live longer for his kids but it will be up to his new doctor to see what he can do to treat his patient so he will live a closer to normal existence. I wish them well and that they will get what they deserve. It is not an easy thing to do, going through a lawsuit while being sick but hopefully things will get better for him and his family.
