Pee Party

Image
I’m waiting outside your doctor’s appointment. You’re welcome. I gave and got you my Dutch Bros birthday gift. That’s love. My love language of giving is acts of service. I like receiving physical touch and gifts too. I hope you had a good time celebrating my birthday yesterday. I’ll let you know what I want for your birthday 😂. All kidding aside, if you want something I can’t read your mind. TTQD!!!

Wake Up Birthday

Image
Thought it would be an ejaculatory alarm, but it was just a regular ⏰. Anyhow, thank you for my birthday gift. It’s almost as it Vinh made it for me. I appreciate all you do, but still wish you could do more 😂 . Hope you got everything you wanted for my birthday. I had more to say, but I’m gonna nap with Vinh. ATEN!!!

Hmm 🤔

Image
I always come up with ideas for blog posts, but if I don’t post right away, I don’t always remember them. I’m surprised that Tesla doesn’t offer this view when you’re backing up. I think Matt’s rental car provides it too. So if gives you a bird’s eye view like when you’re on autopilot and changing lanes. Would bet very helpful. ATEN!!!

Happiness

Image
When I’m happy, I think about you. So if you want me to think about you more then you should want me to be happy more. TJ can wash your car for you. He was washing it when I came to pick him up Sunday. I think about you when I was driving home from swimming. Good times. What are you doing to Vinh? Okay I gotta go. TTQD!!!

Fancy Photos

Image
This place would be nice for photos. It’s kind of far though. I was wondering what happened to all the golf stuff you bought for the wedding photos? I was thinking maybe getting you some golf polos. You already have skorts. Having a pretty bad round, but I’m staying positive. At least the tee time was “free”. Thanks for taking care of Vinh without me. TTQD!!!

Dress You

Image
I think I tried to take you to Old Navy once to look at dresses, but it didn’t pan out. Why? Anyhow, I’m not concerned about how you look, but you mentioned you didn’t have enough clothes.  If you want to get more clothes you should. If you don’t, that’s okay too. My love isn’t based on your style 😂. ATEN!!

Not Off

Image
I decided not to be off and it turned out to be a good choice. I got work done and I also got personal stuff done. But I wish I had just called earlier and scheduled my dad’s dental appointment. They were closed when I finally called.  Thanks Neilsons. I was gonna try to take off some days next week, but it looks like I scheduled stuff for work everyday. I got 2 drinks in case you didn’t like the one you got: You’re welcome. ATEN!!!

To Be Off or Not To Be Off

Image
If I didn’t have a project I was working to record the answer is usually be off. But I have that stupid video I have to record. If you didn’t see my first video, that’s good. I was gonna get that vegetarian pizza, but it’s so far and I didn’t park in garage. I ended up at pieology to finish a gift card I bought to get $5 extra on $25. That’s how they alway get you. But I was able to get a free $5 cinnamon chocolate pizza. Starbucks is next door and since my location services is on, they know I’m near so they sent me a notification 😂. TLG!!!

Pretty Cool

Image
Sand sculpture. Looks so real. Anyhow, you’re playing with Vinh before he goes to sleep. Hopefully you can successfully put him to sleep. I don’t mind, but I don’t want it to be too difficult for you when I’m not around. I feel like I’m forgetting something at Target. Do you want to bet me money that I will lose weight? But you really have to pay me and not fake pay me. Alright time to go to sleep. ATYGN!!!

802

Image
I forgot to commemorate 800 posts. Which means we’ve been married for over 800 days. For worse or worser they say. Hopefully less worser going forward. I was thinking about losing weight, but it doesn’t seem like the process is gonna be very fun. Maybe I should just save money and cut the fat off later. I commend you for your progress. But just know, being lighter won’t make me love you any more (or less because you weigh less 😂). ATEN!!!

A Why

Image
I think I discovered a why to why I get annoyed sometimes with some of your actions. Fortunately, the annoyance goes away quickly and isn’t always my reaction. I get annoyed when there’s an action I don’t like and your response is that you’re just kidding or testing me. I hope you really are, but I feel deeply that often times you’re probably not so it just compounds my feelings. Anyhow I just wanted to share that with you. Hasn’t happened recently, but for some reason I was thinking about it. TTQD!!

Golfing 🏌️

Image
Thanks for letting me golf. I’m sucking and not getting any birdies and missed an easy chance at one, but I’m trying to focus on my overall game and enjoying the opportunity you’ve given me.  My latest chance to do something positive, so we’ll see where it goes. This group in front of us is very slow and they’re white. Not trying to be racist, but I’m sure we would get complaints if it was us…TLG!!!

Sleep

Image
Sandwich. Thanks for all you do for Vinh. Someone needs to up their sleeping game. Good job losing weight. I’ll send you the other photos. Looks flatter when you’re laying down. Good job. Good job being a Godmother today too. Your driving could use some improvement, but ASTEN!!!

Washy

Image
You won, but I didn’t lose so I guess it’s a wash. Vinh had a good doctor appointment today, but the doctor made me feel bad when she asked if he’s still going to daycare when he’s sick. I’m thinking he has no mucus and no fever or any of the other requirements to stay at home why do we care? At least the assistant had big boobs, probably a big butt too, but I was focused on our son so I missed our big time. Don’t worry ASTEN!!!

WWW or Woohoo?

Image
What I thought was WWW for you, might be WWW for me. I hope you do win though. Anyhow, I got you a celebratory treat. If you win you can drink. If you lose you can drink. So it’s really Uyen-Nguyen. See what I did there? So do I also get to weigh you up until midnight to see if you weigh more than 96.9? 😂. ATEN!!!

Weigh In Wednesdays

Image
That was gonna be a theme for the strip club I opened up. For fat girls to strip on Wednesdays. Your weigh in is actually tomorrow, but I wonder what day of the week your original weigh in was… I hope you hit your goal. Like I said, I never intended for you to have to pay me, but I did want to help motivate you. Hopefully you weigh 97.0 so you can pay me just my money back. But you also lost weight 😂. TTQD!!!

Day Off

Image
I know we had to take Vinh to the surgery today, but we still had the day off, although days off don’t really feel like days off anymore post Vinh… Not his fault, but he’s a lot of responsibility. Not extra, but a lot compared to having no kids. Anyhow, I’m glad the procedure went well. I hope he has a good recovery as well. TTQD!!

Today…

Image
Peter got in a car accident, but he’s okay. Today he gave me some lichee for you. Today is the day before Vinh’s surgery. Today is the day before the garbage and recycling pickup. Today is half of my payday. There’s a lot that represents today. So there’s lots that can be accomplished today. But as that video reminds us, you have to make sure you accomplish the big things first or there won’t be any time for them later…did you watch the video about the golf balls and jar and sand and beer? ATGDN!!!

Broken Angels

Image
Someone once said that everyone is a broken angel with one wing. Finding true love is finding someone who you can hold and fly together. That person’s broken qualities compliment your broken qualities cause no one is perfect.  You used to feel we were meant for each other. Not sure what changed, but I hope find that feeling again soon. TTQD!!!

Thank You 😊

Image
Thanks for all you did this week. Hopefully it wasn’t too much for you. I see improvement in our interactions. Hope you’re getting good rest. I didn’t want to wake you for church.  Although you did look at me when I came to check in on you, but you fell back asleep. Praying that we have a good evening and day tomorrow. TTQD!!!

Don’t Matter

Image
At first I thought it was a little odd that you ask someone to text you everyday at noon not to eat. But now I think it’s probably for the best. You ask me to be supportive of your health goals, but I don’t think that’s what you really want. Based on the clock, you’re gonna be late today likely be late, it’s 41 minutes travel time from home to daycare to work not including taking him out and additional traffic.  When I tell you something to help, your response is often an excuse/explanation of why not or that you’re okay with the consequences. When I pack your meals you think it’s too much. Before you used to complain you were still hungry. This is truly a case of what you always accuse me of, damn if I do and damned if I don’t. Although I do feel your job performance impacts our family, I’m gonna let this one go into the “it’s your thing” category. If you want to be late for work, you do you. I said it for the last time today, if you want to be on time, you need to get him and you...

Organize

Image
Not much we can control in life. Organization is one. Kind of like priorities. We get to pick in most cases. Here’s one: We are slowly getting rid of stuff. Need to make sure we don’t take in more than we are getting rid of. At least not until we’ve cleared all the waste out. Fun stuff!!!

Useless

Image
Maybe that’s a strong word, but I do feel like my therapist is useless. So I broke up with her. She didn’t bring me any value. It was not as awkward as I expected, but it needed to be done. Value can be measured in many ways. Ultimately though, if something doesn’t bring added value to one’s life, they should cut it out. Lesson for the day. YW!!!

Happiness

Image
Thanks for trying to wake me up this morning. Any other day would have been good, but there was a lot going on today. Anyhow. I’m at work trying to kill time. I want to leave, but there’s a meeting going on and I feel like they might look for me later.  I have a lot to do, but I don’t feel like recording the video of myself right now. Not nervous, but not sure how I’m supposed to memorize the script. Anyhow, I got a drink today and I’m gonna get one after work. I bought this for golf, Tao said I shouldn’t but it 😂. Money, chim, good food. The many paths to happiness, you can be my guide. ATEN!!!

Mondays

Image
Mondays always suck, but today, at least getting Vinh to daycare, wasn’t that bad. Probably as smooth as it could be, so essentially it’ll probably be worst on any other Monday 😂 . Vinh enthusiastically ate a lot of the puree. He also ate a lot of chicken, drank a lot of milk and maybe too much water. I could probably have gone to work after I dropped him off, but I wanted to clean up and do laundry today. TLG!!!

Ouch 🤕

Image
My wrist hurts. WWW… this didn’t make the pain go away, but it tasted great. I think I might have to invest in a machine to help me.  Thanks for watching Vinh as I write this blog. Not sure how we’re gonna solve our problems, but I hope we do. Life is too short to be unhappy. TLG!!!

Canon

Image
I have found you to be a person who is influenced by emotions. I hope dinner and the show are good for you tonight. With that being said, I haven’t read anything about the show, but I generally think all the shows are similar enough. As for the food, I hope it’s good, but the reviews seem to be mixed. These days it’s really hard to tell if food is hype or good and everyone’s tastes are different. I want to believe in Michelin, but I wasn’t impressed in Prague or Korea if I recall. Maybe there’s nothing wrong with Michelin, but it could be the wrong guide for my taste. Although I liked Yue Huang and The Kitchen. TLG!!!

Surprise

Image
Guess what’s behind window number 1? A dead fly hopefully. I didn’t have time to swat it and it flew inside the blinds so I just closed it. I left the fly swatter for you in case you wanted to open it up and kill it. Good luck.

Lemons

Image
Or maggots. Life is always throwing complications at us. To go with what we’re already dealing with, today I found maggots… Plural, as in more than one. Not sure where they’re coming from either. I killed a bunch and I swiffered the areas in kitchen around island. Haven’t seen anymore since, but still keeping my eye out. The only thing worse than seeing maggots and accidentally stepping on one. TLG!!!!

Hmmm

Image
Hope for the best. Plan for the worst. Generally pretty good rules to live by. Kind of like pessimists are rarely disappointed, sometimes pleasantly surprised. Trying to focus on the things I can control. Got some errands done today. Tied up loose ends. Finished up some work. Wanted to take time off, but after last week, I need to get this video project done before I feel like I can be out. TLG!!!

So?

Image
What does the future hold? Minh got discharged today…I need to check on my mom’s meds tomorrow. I noticed she gave my cousins 2 bottles of Fouciceps… Need to start working on this video project for Peter. He wants me to make 2 videos going over our programs. Seems odd since the person we hired makes the videos. Guess he wants a backup, but I wish it was because we were letting her go. And then there’s us. Not sure what’s gonna happen, but until I give my 2 weeks notice I guess I gotta keep on working. This is your birthday gift. I just need three good photos. I guess I can wait until the photo shoot. It could take a while to resolve this. I can only do so much…
