Last night when I opened this blog I thought it needs a new theme. I have used this theme for a while now and I think it is time for a change. So I looked at the free themes in wordpress and installed a few I liked. I then previewed each one of the themes I liked to see if it will suit me. I had problems with a few because of the font used or the font size. There were some which really looked good but when I used it as my theme it did not click. I had to install and uninstall a lot of themes several times which ended up messing with my side bar. Then the problem started. I have badges in my sidebar that you can see. There are only four of those but they are kinda important. These badges and links have been in the sidebar since the conception of this blog so it really felt odd (to me) not to see those when I scroll down the page. Thankfully my blog is cached and I only have to click view source and looked for the links and I was able to put them back where they belong. Now I am back to my old theme. I have to look at more themes to satisfy me but I have to make sure to be careful so this incident will not happen again.

Today we bought new bed sheets. Yay! Lol. This decision was made after I realized that we only have two sets of decent bed sheets. The rest were just an assortment of mismatched colors. The husband thought I was lying because he claimed we have quite a number of new bedsheets stashed in the closet. I then told him that the supposed stash was gone. When his daughter lived with us for a few months and moved out she brought a few sets saying those were hers when she was a teenager. Okay, let her have them. When his son (who also lived with us for a while) moved out he did not say anything but we thought he needed some sheets so we gave him a few more sets. The result? We only have two sets left and I am telling you it is a pain having to alternate only two sets when you wash them every few days. Talk about being threadbare. So today while changing the sheets I told the husband there was a sale on one of the stores and what do you know bed sheets were heavily discounted. He said we have to buy more but only after checking the closet. Had to make sure in case I was just using that as an excuse to shop, lol. We decided to buy two sets which we separately choose. I opted for printed sheets with brown as the dominant color while the husband’s choice was a canary yellow set. When he said he wanted yellow I thought sure, thinking it was of a darker shade. I was horrified when I saw it. Well, I could not say no since he really likes it so we paid for it. I have not washed the sheets and I just replaced the bedsheets before we went out so it might be a few days before we will use the new ones but I am telling you I will post a picture of his choice to see how it will come out. He just laughs at me and said it will be beautiful. Why do I doubt that? Lol.

Ever since I gained weight I have been dreaming planning to get back in shape. I have tried different kinds of diet, even took some diet pills for a while. My weight is like a yo-yo then. Up one day down the next, lol. I stepped on the scale everyday sometimes several times a day to check on my weight awaiting for some miracle to happen. I got tired eventually and gave it up. But that does not mean I am not going to do something about it anytime soon. This time I will try to buy a fitness equipment like a tread mill since I really like to have one. And a stationary bike if possible. If I can control my voracious appetite and eat only healthy food, I think I will make a difference. I have lost weight being sick for days now and maybe I can start here. I really have to do something about this problem or this will keep piling up on me and then it will be harder to get rid of.

The idea of having a new laptop is starting to sound good to me. This is a few days after I was told I can have a new one. If I can get a new Sony VAIO with more gig then it will surely be faster to load and easier to use. And if I will keep pictures and other data on the old computers (or maybe buy more memory card) and keep the husband and the little man away from it, it might just work. Perhaps I will start looking for a new computer. Maybe I will find one on sale then that will be awesome. I still have to think things over and see if this will work. Who knows I will be excited? Lol.

The husband asked me if I wanted to have another laptop since he and the little man are using mine all the time now.  I actually have to run them off since after the father reads the news he turns over my laptop to his son so he can play in it. And once the little man uses my computer (and even if he is not using it as long as he was the one who left it open) I do not get to reclaim my computer without a fight. And I can’t use his computer because, well, it is his. This happens daily. Did I tell you that we have three laptops in this house? Yes, three. One for each of us. But somehow I always end up without one. I have voiced my complaints hence the offer for a new laptop complete with extended service plan and anti-virus protection and anything else I might want. In as much as I want a new laptop, I don’t really see the need to buy one at the moment. We do have three laptops. If these two will just leave my computer alone (which they complained is too slow to load anyway) then I will be completely happy. Besides, what’s the guarantee that they will not use the new laptop should we buy one? I might have to start hiding my computer and see what happens, lol.
