Thing is…

Thing is, I just read a “log” from my online reader, which mysteriously hasn’t been updating in a timely manner.

As a result, I immediately saw that I’m only worth two weeks! Wow! In other words, I’m being “held hostage” by the system.

It will take two days for one done this evening; next week for one overdue for a couple of months and ETERNAL HELL FIRE for the big one, which has NOT yet materialized in over eleven slong years!!!

So whoever or whatever thinks I have any face to show my family and friends, well, they should be DAMN ashamed!

Cleaned downstairs window and patio covers…

At 4:42pm, I commented on a “dream blog.

At 4:33pm, I sat down to slab on my skin some Coconut Body Butter with Community Trade organic virgin coconut oil for Normal/dry skin by “The Body Shop”.

At 4:07pm, Maw and I ate a Slow Churned® Ice Cream “Coconut Pineapple Limited Edition (May-Aug) New!” by Dreyer’s.

At 4:00pm, the three of us completed cleaning for the day.

After eating breakfast, Paw did most of the vacuuming the walls with Maw helping to dust his furniture; while I ironed yesterday’s wash of covers for two leather sofas and my upright piano by Kimball. After lunch, Maw and I soaped and wash four screens from the windows downstairs. We also soaped and wiped down the windows and the sliding door leading to the back yard. Then the three of us soaped and washed four pieces of sailboat material of green color for the patio.

There was a hornet’s (or yellow jacket’s) nest in the corner. Thank goodness the old timers didn’t destroy the colony and the little eggs growing inside. Maw killed two big black spiders. I wonder if they are the food for the blue jay who was screeching a warning to me as I tried to sweep up dried leaves upon the ginger rocks with my almighty “walis” (or a Filipino word for a make-shift broom made out of dried reed twigs).

Of course, the divorced nutter was listening and working quietly next door to us while Maw and I scolded each other LOUDLY during this warm day of crispy clear blue skies with some cool breeze to help dried our work faster. That parakeets got scared from our activities and got quiet when we lowered the four coverings to the patio. After we put those up, they made noise as usual as if morning suddenly started all over again.

Grey hearts…

This weekend I attended mass THREE times. That’s it! I don’t want to pray anymore. I want to play! I sick and tired of reading passages created by ancient bloggers! It’s a scam!

During this 9:15am mass, Father was celebrating but a damn deacon with a THICK accent was giving the sermon. Maw disapproved. Sermons are supposed to be the priest. But I guess he had no choice because deacons are being paid to be the voice pieces of the Lord. I couldn’t understand him.

And prior the final blessing, the priest said a few words. He mentioned something about a CON (and probably in reference to the corruption and fraud to any but in particular this religious organization). And Maw knew right away what he meant. His last message for tonight was something along the line of “praying from the heart”. The heart.

In my mind’s, I kept sending him the image of a “grey” alien. You see, during the honor of the prelate earlier this year, the bishop of our diocese stood in the middle of the cathedral. I was sitting almost directly in front of the big  guy but towards the middle of the pews. The place was mysteriously dimmed. I had Shrimpsei’s new OtterBox buzzing in my purse, of course.

While staring at the big guy, my mind’s eye saw a “grey” alien superimposed over the bishop. The alien was white, a pasty color. The eyes were pink, or dark in red color. The neck was slender. The frame was thin as were the limbs. And the height was about as tall as the bishop.

20110828-Trying Theme

Well, this time I’m trying Theme: Blix by Sebastian Schmieg. It’s one of my old favorite, even though it doesn’t have the “timestamp” displayed on each post and/or pages. But at least I could view the “source code” and find out how and when my publication occurred.

And with my paid upgrade for “Custom Design”, I tweaked the CSS stylesheet from its original colors of aqua and lime green (yuch) to its current color of light tan (not the sunburned color on the skin). I center aligned the text for both header and footer. And that’s all I did.”

I’m still deciding on using my “Get a Discount” towards this “Custom Design” feature before it expires. But I’m so cheap, err, on a budget and again, I could NEVER be satisfied with the appearance and layout of my weblog.

As mentioned in my old blog(s), I deleted LOTS of old folders, including anything for WordPress.com. I got sick and tired of looking at outdated files, photos, videos and audio that will never be viewed, especially my old stylesheets. I’m not even done scanning old photos and/or its negatives.

As for “cleaning house” and after waking up from my two hour nap at around 3:00pm, I reluctantly help Maw vacuum, dust and rearrange furnishings downstairs. I really want to dump a whole LOT more but don’t have permission from the home owners! I hated the heat and sweat from the exertions, too Ugh!

Gut busting…

For five months now, I’ve not been getting the exercise needed to loose weight and get healthy. Instead I’ve gotten a bigger belly! That’s right! I have been using a black-colored girdle to support my wider girth AND bum back. Needless to say, the contraption works and helps me to sit straighter and thus reduce the prickly sensation in my lower extremities.

When I don’t use my girdle, I have a backup: it’s Paw’s old leather belt. It is 1.5 inches wide and I use it on my lower abdomen. Of course, the blood is restricted as I feel prickly pain in my feet at the moment. So I have to reduce the tightness and go down a notch. I may have to go back to the girdle for better comfort.
