This Guy

Image
Why he sleep so long? And then when I’m about to do something else, he decides to wake up? 🤦‍♂️. I had just labeled the times on his bottles assuming he would sleep longer, then he woke up. I told Ms. Clelia that they can move the feeding up based on the labels. Hopefully he eats well today. TLG!!!

To Do

Image
Looks at this: I know Vinh takes up most of our time, but we still need to keep time for ourselves and other responsibilities. I did my best to organize this for you. And I’ll do what I can to help. I even reduced your chimtake. But some things do require your final approval and action. TLG!!!

Half and Half

Image
Let’s do it. If there’s anything you want to half and half let me know. Although maybe it should be 66/34. Vinh needs to pay his share too šŸ˜‚. TYGO!!! I’m so tired. Www…

Thanks šŸ™

Image
Being a single parent isn’t easy, so I wanted to thank you for the times that you are. It’s nice for me to be able to have some time to do other things and so I appreciate that. TLT!!

Congratulations Vina!!

Image
Today was a day of celebration. Vina and Sophie. Woohoo. Sometimes it’s nice to have a break from our own lives and enjoy others. It’s busy and tiring, but imagine if we didn’t have anyone. Thanks to toughing it out. TTQD!!

Money šŸ’“

Image
Money is the root of a lot of problems. I pray and hope that it doesn’t become a problem for us. That’s kind of why I like separating our finances. That way we refrain from commenting on how we spend our own money. Manh left his wallet at our house. It’s so thick. I know sometimes you don’t agree with how I spend my money, but I think it’s important to remember that you can’t and shouldn’t worry about other people’s wallets. I appreciate that you are able to refrain in most cases šŸ˜‚. But just because our money is separate, I hope you remember that we’re a team and that I will help however I can to reduce your worry. #daycare #telsa #insurance #burialplots…ATEN!!!

I Forget

Image
I had a topic I wanted to blog about today, but I forgot. Sorry about this morning. I just felt a little frustrated that I was trying to leave and was delayed significantly. I was thinking today that I don’t say “no” enough and that I bare some responsibility for my frustration. I can’t expect others to be mindful of my needs if I don’t make them aware. Anyhow, I’m gonna try to finish up here and go pick up Vinh a little early. Maybe in time for him to wake up when you get home so maybe he can sleep earlier too. TLG!!!

Compatible

Image
Google says our astrological signs are compatible. Although I don’t really see us as very similar. I wonder what Virgos are supposed to be like. But see, we’re meant to be šŸ˜‚ hope mom and Vinh feel better soon. Then I can get back to worrying about you and bugs. TYGQD!!!

Takeout Tuesday

Image
OMG. They didn’t save my blog post. Geez! Long story short, I got in n out for us so Vinh could sleep longer. If you want more details, let me know. Probably didn’t save because there’s no reception at the Elk Grove Costco. Will have to come back and add picture latTLG!!!

Happy Monday

Image
Not…Vinh was not his normal self, but at least he was able to make it to daycare and they haven’t called us? I often get takeout when I go into office. Since I didn’t get to go today I decided to treat myself anyways. So I guess there’s that. Hope you’re fasting well. TTQD!!!

Bye For Now Family

Image
It’s time to go home. Until we meet again. I hope you enjoyed your trip. Best trip ever you said (for you). Well the math works out still I guess. Sorry I couldn’t get a nicer picture, but I happen to capture the entire family. I still think you should prepay our bet. Actually I can prepay you if you want. That shows I believe in you. ATEN!!!

Happy Birthday Nha

Image
Hope you’re having fun celebrating Nha’s birthday. Look who also came to celebrate. E said it was okay for him to be in the room. This location gave him a good view of the entire space. Her room is fancy. I said it before and will say it again. Hope you get some good rest and fun while on vacation. TTQD!!!

Three Spoons

Image
Hey look what I found? Three spoons together. It was a long journey, but we made it to Long Beach. You’ll get to see E in just a few hours. Are you excited? So excited that you’re resting up so you can be full of energy when you see her. This is vacation remember, you need to make sure you some rest and relaxation in. TTQD!!! D

The List

Image
Someone has a list and checking it twice. Hopefully the list isn’t the reason for your headaches. This reminds me of the post it note exercise, but I don’t know how much of your post its I could really help with. I also have a lot of post its, but it does give a good visual representation. Anyhow, hope you feel better and that we have a good trip. TTQD!!

Handels

Image
I got “us” Handels today since I was at target and headed home after so it wouldn’t melt. Also I have 700 reasons to fatten you up. Just kidding, it’s cause I love you and will eat some so you don’t have to finish it all. If you want me to meal prep for you I can, but you’re very picky. I can make salad and rice with meat every day so you can eat. IYM!!!

Get Er Done!

Image
It was nice to nap, but I missed a lot and there’s so much to be done. Thanks for giving me the nap. Today I washed the freezer bin, but there’s no room to put it back yet.  I picked some candy stuck in my mouth and it fell out but I couldn’t find it. Could also be on my golf bag as I was cleaning my golf clubs. I will not buy Costco lasagna anymore since you don’t like it. About 2/3 finished. TLG!!!

Blogs Past

Image
It’s amazing how much can change in less than a year. And no, I’m not referencing your blog post to encourage you to blog more šŸ˜‚. I just happened to check it today and got me thinking… So much has happened. Some bad, some good. Some things haven’t changed. I guess it just reminds me that there’s a lot of potential out there. I’ll try to take the food and skip the bad. ATEN!!!

Yah Mother’s Day

Image
Man I put on shorts thinking Dina was coming. Www. Anyhow, cheers to Vinh’s mom and all you do. He may not know it, but I’m sure he appreciates it. Hope you have an amazing “first” Mother’s Day today. And may there be many more of them to come. ATEN!!! (PS, please wake up soon and be rested because Vinh is so fussy this morning) 

Mother's Day Eve

Image
Happy Mother’s Day Eve. Vinh got you 3 poops. Hope you like them. I will try my best to give you 8 hours of sleep tonight. Hopefully Vinh will cooperate. His foot was twitching while he was sleeping, but I wasn’t able to capture it. Anyhow, here’s to wishing you a happy Mother’s Day Eve. TTQD!!

Kid Art

Image
Do you plan on saving all Vinh’s art? If so I will get something to store it. Here’s something for Mother’s Day: We hope you like it. You’re one of the fortunate women who get the title of mother. No one can take that from you. Well not literally. But they can take Vinh away šŸ˜‚. You’d still be a mother though. LOL!!!

700 Club

Image
It’s 700 post on this blog. I guess that’s a really random number to reference except there is a Christian show call the 700 club… Here is your dramatic son. How you don’t forget your Mother’s Day thing from daycare tomorrow. You earned it. I’m having trouble with scheduling post. Www. TLG!!!

Back To Urgent Care

Image
Here we go again… On the positive, they said his ear is getting better and only one looks red. On the negative, another $15 and few hours of “work” time spent. I think he’s just fussy around non familiars, which sucks. TLG!!

Back to the Grind

Image
It’s a good thing you were off today. Everyone is sooo tired. I even had a mind lapse while giving my live presentation. Www. Hopefully everyone got a good laugh about it, I ate a veggie wrap on accident. Maybe that will improve my life. Although I ate too many pastries and also some cookies Loraine made. The free food curse, at least I didn’t take any home, but I’m tempted to go back tomorrow for some.TLG!!!

Chimtake

Image
I think you’re missing chimtake in your life. It’s a good thing I’m back. I’m sorry Boba Chop isn’t doing well. Hopefully you can get off tomorrow so you can take care of him. This is how straight his head should be I think. Anyhow, that’s again to the golf trip. I will let you have chimtake to say thanks. You’re welcome. ATEN!!!

WTH

Image
Who sleeps like this?  Maybe Joann is the big spoon. Looks like an invitation for Gay Boo šŸ˜‚. Thanks to taking care of Vinh this weekend so that I could enjoy my regular golf trip. Hopefully it gets easier in future for me to be away (not that I plan to be). It’s always nice to have time to reflect and reevaluate life. That was a pleasant surprise this week. TYGN!!!

Thanks Jay

Image
I have been playing really bad and Jay has been playing really good, but I decided still to bet him for a hat. I had to ask him for 2 strokes even though my handicap is lower than his… I figured I had lost already, but I was pleasantly surprised to find out Jay sucked bad on the round we bet.  Lots of factors could be involved, but I won a hat. Unfortunately, Jay would not let me transfer the credit to TJ for the bet today. So here’s the hat. Wish they had it in black or darker color, but here it is. TLG!!!

Ouch

Image
This is what happens when you cut your nails too short. We’re waiting for a group in front of us so I’m taking this time to blog. Almost just got bit by a mosquito. Great views in Utah. It’s too bad we are rich and can’t buy vacation homes everywhere. This would be a nice spot. Not sure about the culture here, but nice so far. TYGQD!!!

I’m Leaving On A ✈️

Image
But I will be back again. You know that song? I feel bad cause I was eating a piece of banana bread, but didn’t finish it so I wrapped it in my pocket and it fell into Wynn’s car. Not only could it have made a mess, but I also didn’t bring or offer him any. Www. Have a great time while I’m gone. TLG!!!

Emotional Accounts

Image
I think we talked about it before, but if not, it’s important to keep your account balances positive. Not just the financial, but also the emotional and other accounts. I don’t think your intention should be to get benefit when you make deposits into peoples’ emotional accounts, but often times it does turn into positive results. Positive intentions leading to positive results. That’s win-win! TLTNN!!!

Can They?

Image
Can Costco sell expired products? It was on clearance, but it is past sell by date. Tastes fine though. Anyhow, curious what the policies are, but I don’t plan on returning it. Costco also price adjusted the southwest card I bought 2 weeks ago. So now I think I have a lot of money in Southwest giftcards. Some may think it’s a waste, but as long as I use it within 12 months it’s like getting 14% interest (more if I use it sooner). I can use it for work and charge them full price. TTQD!!!

Lucky šŸ€

Image
I always mention that I’m lucky to have great people in my life. Today was another good example. My coworker’s husband retired and they live near a golf course. He finds balls in the bushes and she got me some fancy ones. I had another coworker who’s kids found balls when they were on vacation near a golf course. I’m running low on balls without Tao. Gonna start having to buy my own balls at full price soon…TLG!!!
