Our Love Story Begins Today

That’s tomorrow, but tonight I can’t sleep. Thanks for the 🌬️. Anyhow, I know it’s been an up and down year. A lot of things happened. Besides your lack of obsession with me, I’m optimistic for 2024. Surprised I miss your obsession with me, but I can see one big reason why. You have a new obsession. I replaced myself with a cuter and more dependent clone. WWW!!!

They say that one doesn’t plan to fail, one fails to plan. I think that aptly applies to some people I know.  Coincidentally, someone just had the shower curtain outside the shower. I guess it’s often times not thinking. Anyhow, everything that failing to plan impacts has ripple effects. Literally sometimes. I know that overthinking can be paralyzing, but eventually not thinking can be just as consequential. My feet are currently standing in water outside the bathtub at the Airbnb. TLG!!

Lottery could solve most of the problems we saw this week. I’m really trying to win for everyone, but so far no luck.  Yes, I know we are blessed, but I’m saying we could do so much more if we had the means. At least for the people who really need it. But I know you don’t want me to win. I’m still not gonna give up though. WWW. 

I was thinking that Lucas apologizes a lot and he does the same thing again. I wonder if you ever noticed that. I also wonder if it’s part of the not asking for permission, but rather seeking forgiveness mentality that the Do women practice influencing him. It just reminds he how frustrating it is when you and I’m wondering if you experience any frustration with the kids. I know they’re kids, but that might give insight into my experience. TLG!!’

I was debating asking you to grab me some stuff, but I’m glad I didn’t add to the struggle. First world luxuries. It was so nice that your didn’t cause too much trouble, but man the Howard kids are more than a handful. I’m really worried about your trip to Europe. 🙏. We just be glad nothing was Vinh’s fault today besides not taking a nap…you’re welcome for the Apple Pay advice.

No Canada today. Lucas lost his Legos. And Tony runs away, hey… At least no one got physically hurt today. Probably some feelings is all. Away from home for the holidays is always an adventure. 

Anna Banana spoiled this year’s chance at Family Do being altogether. WWW. Since you said you’d rather wait until after Christmas, I left your Christmas gifts at home. Something to look forward to. Don’t forget about the best gift I got you though. You’re welcome. #seasonofgiving

We’re almost to the destination. It’s been a relative smooth trip so far. Hopefully that’s a good sign for the rest of the week.  I was gonna post a picture of you sleeping, but I decided not to as another Christmas present. Hope you enjoy the trip and don’t stress too much. TTQD!!

Dang, what a time to get sick. Thanks for all you’re doing. Hoping I’ll be a lot better tomorrow. So much to do, Good night. TTQD!!!

It’s been quite a tumultuous year and it’s not quite over yet. However, I got some time today since I’m just watching Vinh that I thought I should post early for Christmas and New Years. I hope we can continue make efforts and progress to keep Team Boba together. It’s not gonna be easy, but I hope you still think it’s worth it. Once something is lost, there’s no guarantee it will ever be found again. ATEN!!!

I understand that time is a limited resource in our lives, but I effort and time are not always related.  Sometimes I get the minimal effort. But other times I find it frustrating because I feel like if minimal effort is going to be exerted, then minimal returns is probably the result. Forget the golden rule, the platinum rule is do onto others as you would want them to do onto you. Minimal probably isn’t what you want. ASTEN!!!

They say the only unconditional love is between parent and child or pet. Although I wonder if your love is unconditional for Vinh or not. Hopefully he stays cute and you don’t find anything cuter, otherwise Team Matcha Boba Milktea will become Team Boba Milktea. He’s smart, but he has a lot to learn. I hope you’re patient with him and will love him unconditionally like a parent should. I saw how fast your love for me changed. I hope it doesn’t change for him. He’s innocent. TTQD!!!

I know we don’t see eye to eye on many things. The one thing I hope we learn to come closer to oneness on is money, even though our monies are generally separate. I appreciate your efforts and I hope it continues. It means a lot to me. I also want you to know that how I spend on others will not impact our family. It may seem that way, but it really doesn’t. Any money I don’t spend on others doesn’t automatically go to Team Boba. Thanks for understanding. ATEN!!!

No one generally plans to fail. Often time we fail because we don’t want plan. Plans can change, so it’s useful sometimes to have back up plans, especially if we’re not adept to change quickly. The paper cutter at work is good. Did you get the email from the retreat people? Cool. 👋 

Comes with responsibility, otherwise it’s just spoiled. I don’t do things for you because I expect something in return. I do things for you because I love you. I know you say you appreciate it. Which I appreciate, but are you things to be deserving out it. I think we’re fortunate to have each other. So that’s why I want to work on our relationship. 

There’s a reason why I try to treat everyone equal. And if I have to error, I try to error in favor of others. It’s a pretty crappy feeling to feel like one is being treated unfair. Life can be unfair at times. I hope that the world tries to treat our son like I try to treat others. And I hope that when they error, they error in his favor. I hope he never has to feel the sting of unfairness. TLG!

You used to love a loser. Hopefully some day you’ll love this loser again. I never really was sad when you loved me too much. I was just worried that you didn’t love yourself enough. But maybe loving me was loving yourself. Anyhow, I’m currently down $79. But it’s still “early”. I can’t win without Eric. TLG!!!

Besides hot pot, I don’t think there’s ever been any soup made with fish balls with eggs inside… I think sometimes you don’t think or you don’t want to take responsibility. This just doesn’t make sense. Explaining is okay. The issue is not taking responsibility. Intentions aside, consequences have actions. TLG!!!

I find myself thinking if my peace with dying would be different if our relationship was better. The only person I currently feel bad about if I die is Vinh. I don’t really worry about anyone else being impacted. I also think everyone would be okay. Just worry about Vinh. Please note, I’m not suicidal. Life is so hard. TLG!!!

Today I went to Costco to return Poise. I also picked up medication for Vinh. I dropped Vinh off at daycare today. I’m also gonna pick him up later today. I finished feeding him this morning and cleaned up. I will go buy more milk for him today on my way home after picking him up. I will do laundry tonight. That’s a normal day for me. I don’t think you’ll be able to do this and work and take care of Vinh by yourself. 

...of the end? Of something better? Not sure. Only time will tell, but tonight it begins... To be continued?

It probably is nice to have time apart. Although I would have preferred different circumstances. Anyhow, I will do my best to take advantage of this time.  Look what Susie got Vinh. I didn’t get much personal stuff done, but I did get a lot done, I think, for Team Boba and Co. Hope you’re having a good time away. Safe travels. ATEN!!!

For watching Vinh. I know it’s your responsibility, but I appreciate that you watch him often so I am able to focus on other things. Since we’re texting thanks to your friends. I hope the cookies are acceptable to your family. I’m out of practice. I hope these are the ones your cousin likes. Although I think my everything cookie or double tree cookies are probably better in hindsight. TLG!!

I think the best super power would be the ability to see the future and past and be able to share that with others. Every time I hear about these unsolved cases or these horrendous crimes, I think if someone had those powers they could help. Late picture, but there were tons of ducks. I was telling someone I wish I had more money and they were like it’s never enough. It’s never enough for me to be happiest, but I could be happier. Happiest would require having special powers like above. I promise I would only use it to help others and not myself. 🙏 

Today I'm playing with friends this game online called Dominion. I used to be really bad at it, but now I'm just okay. It was difficult to get started because we couldn't figure out how to start the game since it's been so long. Then we decided to start chatting and not playing (the point of the event). But it was kinda awkward and then someone figured it out so now we're playing. Not sure what today's mass was about, but maybe you can explain me later. Thanks for watching Vinh. It's always nice to catch up and see what everyone is doing. Even though we don't always talk, it's still nice to catch up. ATEN!!!

Man, I got so much done and not done today. Printer is still broken though. But I was able to try the a new printer head and original ink cartridge. But in the end they didn’t work either. Fortunately, I was able to return them.  Guess I’ll have to look into a new printer. Also need to go to Walmart to finish shopping for cookie stuff, I really don’t know how different life would be if I had to go into office everyday. Not just for me, but for our family too. TTQD!!!

I’m not sure my beliefs would be universally considered correct, but I often wish God would grant me powers to correct all the wrongs I see in the world. Reminding of the question, why does God let bad things happen? God could also let me win the lottery so I can fix some problems in the world since I don’t have superpowers. There’s been a few high profile cases of assassinations in Canada of Indian and Pakistani dissidents. Sad TLG!!!

You got the surgery done. Now it’s time for part 2. Wishing you a speedy recovery and survival of Team Boba. I believe in us. Gonna be a challenge, but we do what we have to do. #oneness 

I think that’s really important. It seems like often times we don’t say what’s on our mind and it could be helpful.  But we can’t get offended by what each other say. It has to be a safe place. Just because we don’t feel something is wrong, doesn’t there isn’t an issue. Look at your coffee machine. You’re welcome. TTQD!!!

Funs of my life. Can you guess where this is from? They cooked it. Crazy. I just smelt my sweater and it smells like oil. Www. Thanks for letting me do fun things that aren’t you and Vinh. Hope you guys are sleeping well. Maybe Arzoo will come early. Not sure if we’re eating after golf or not, but I’ll see you later. TTQD!!!

To be jolly… Not sure if Thanksgiving counts, but it’s now December so does the holiday season start now? Wishing us a wonderful holiday season and happy 2024.  ATEN, not SN!!!
