Sprained.

..not me, it's my basketbolistang hubby.

While I was digiscrapping away my Saturday noon with this:

..the maid went up to our room and asked, as he was told, for some money to buy a bandage in the botica. I hurriedly went downtairs and found my grimacing hubby. He was doing daw a layup but landed hard and twisted his left ankle. So ayun, enough muna siya with basketball and kelangan ipahinga...kung kelan pa naman their team will be playing in the semis on Tuesday. Poor hubby...am sorry but you cannot play. :p

Pop..

...goes my heart!

As promised, I was supposed to clock out of office early last V day but unfortunately, hubby YM-ed me late..turned out, he was rushing some tasks. We met at 6:30 already and since we were both carrying our surprises for each other..the bouquet and a Red Ribbon chocolate mousse (which I sent him..oh yeah kala niya siya lang ang may surprise delivery ha hehe!), we went home in Makati muna to leave our things so that we can have our "date" comfortably. Since house is just a tricycle-away from ayala, we were able to get back din agad and started to scout for "empty" restos (which we knew, was impossible that day) in Glorietta by 7 pm. We initially planned to dine at Avenetto and feast on my latest fave pasta, Oil & Garlic Special, but as expected, the place was full..there was even a queue outside waiting for their turns to get in. Arggh! Off we searched further..we almost ate at Oliver's but my semi-pihikang hubby refused their pasta and sandwiches. We wandered again and our feet brought us to Food Choices...grilled chicken, calamares (one of my latest cravings) and beef kaldereta.

We then proceeded to G4 Cinema and bought tickets for the 10:30 pm screening of this:

But since we still have to wait from the time we bought tickets until the screening hour, we killed time playing Time Crisis, Basketball and some other games in Timezone...watched a group doin' the Super Trivia game and observed a girl in her college uniform (white blouse and skirt) do the Dance Revolution..in her high-heeled shoes! Hehe! Our credits were mostly consumed with shooting hoops. Ka-adik..yan tuloy, until now, my muscles hurt.

We then watched Music and Lyrics and got mesmerized with the soundtrack hehe! Ang cute ng Way Back Into Love and Pop Goes My Heart (though, am not really an '80s classic pop fan). The movie is nice in general...being a feel-good, romantic-comedy film. Nice din ang plot..i like the comedy scenes the best. Hehe!

So there..that's how our V day went. And of course...*wink wink* hehe!

Happy Hearts' Day!

..to everyone.

Hay! I'm a bit sluggish right now. Probably I'm still tired of last night's OT. I went home around 9 pm last night as I was literally swamped with rush requirements from everyone..whew! Or perhaps I'm lazying because of the mood where deliveries of roses, chocolates and teddy bears are a common sight since this morning not only here in the office but moreso outside.

Well, am not envious as I already got mine. My husband never fails to surprise me. Despite agreeing that we would no longer send each other flowers (as we would do yearly) since we'll go malling, or perhaps, "date" would be better to describe it..this evening...and it would just be bulky..carrying and malling around with a bouquet of roses on hand. He still surprised me with a dozen of roses this morning...personally delivered by himself here in the office. (See..it benefits us both talaga that our workplaces are just near hehe!)

Hay, I don't mind carrying it tonight while malling, bi. Your sweetness is so much appreciated. Don't worry I'll clock out early this afternoon hehe! luv u for life!

Roundup.

Huwat! It's Friday already...oh let me rephrase that...Thank God it's Friday! The week went just fine...work's just okay, generally..everything went well.

Monday - typical day at work. Responded to lotsa lotsa emails which were sent over the weekend. My lunch at Max's was on Joy and Bel. Lucky them, they got their Sick Leave conversions. Went home at about 6 pm. Paul's officemate offered us a ride home and we were dropped off near Shopwise. We intended to just buy my cravings lately which is Dunkin's Boston Kreme. We ended up bringing home 6 Shopwise plastic bags plus 6 pcs of donuts, of course. Napa-grocery ng di oras..lolz!

Tuesday - processed a few Purchase Orders at work. Responded and read a multitude of emails ulit. Lunch AGAIN was on Bel and Joy. Lucky me, am I not? We had lunch at Avenetto in Glorietta and we feasted on on our fave...Oil & Garlic Pasta Special yummy! Went home around 7 pm. Ater eating dinner, Paul and I headed to their basketball game in Rockwell. This was my third time to watch and hooray...panalo sila. Paul scored 2 points hehe! That's my Michael Jordan!

Wednesday - as always, email galore. Lunch at our pantry but since Bel and I couldn't take in our concessionaire's food, we opted for a KFC delivery. Got kinda pissed off with one transaction..hay! They're rushing their request and yet, the requirements aren't complete arggh! Our group's supposed to have our Project Updates in the afternoon but our boss was swamped with meetings left and right. The meeting was moved to Thursday morning. Went home early because of the cancelled meeting. However, since it was a wednesday...off we drove to QC. (Just to recap our weekly sched since we got married: Sundays evening till Wednesdays pm - we stay in my parents' house in Makati. Wednesdays 'til Sunday noon - we stay in my in-laws' abode in QC.)

Thursday - meeting with the group the whole morning. Since a lot of our time was consumed in the meeting, Bel and I just had our Jollibee lunch in our workstations. Went home early...5:30 on the dot. We had to go home early since it's Father-in-law's birthday and we have to buy pa Pansit Malabon near Crossings (NBS). While the pansit was being prepared, we wandered muna in National Book Store. We bought a Sudoku (logical game of number puzzles) and the 2006-2007 Bride's Yellow Pages. It's not that I'm back with any wedding preps, pero it's a good reference kasi..especially with my work as a Purchaser. Pwede talaga naming magamit sa group. Went home then had a pansit dinner with the family. Later, I had to fulfill a CT duty since most of my co-team members were sending Katie their LOs already. I had to finish this last night:

Posted on my DST gallery. Please leave me some love. :)

I managed to do this in just about 30 minutes. Thanks to Katie's Visual Stories Template Set which is available here. Actually, even if you're not into digiscrapping, you can use this template set on your blogs for showcasing picture sets or picture stories.

Friday - Last day of the week in the office. Rushed all POs that need to be finished. We had lunch in Oliver's-Salcedo. Since another colleague will be leaving, food flooded our Huddle Room ulit. We had Spaghetti, Amber's pichi-pichi (again), and Yellow Cab Pizza. Clocked out at 7 pm...arrgghhh! we drove from makati to qc for 2 freaking hours! 9 pm na kami nakauwi and nakapagdinner. Traffic was so bad in Sta. Mesa. Wawa naman hubby-slash-driver ko.

Hay..thank God it's Friday...what a tiring week! Can't wait to rest this weekend and of course, digiscrap some more. By the way, an EB is scheduled with the Bebot Digiscrappers tomorrow in Galleria..am just not sure if I can join. We'll check our sched pa pero..I'd love to see and meet the persons behind the forum nick and creative LOs.

Happy Weekend everyone! Lapit na Valentines...and one month to go, tatanda na naman ako. :)

New week.

==Sunday evening thoughts=
whhhat? Tomorrow's Monday again? yikes..I wonder how MUCH workload awaits me in the office especially that I didn't come in for 2 full days. well, let's just see. I just hope that traffic tom is not as bad as last Monday. I hate Mondays! WaaahhHh!

==digiscrapping==
Since my fever kept me away for some time from the puter, I was able to finish only 2 LOs for this weekend:
