A Diva Sunglasses

I finally got a new Versace DIVA sunglasses. A cure from months and months of mourning for losing one of my most treasured sunglasses (Versace’s jewelled metal frame). I bought it in one of those duty free shops at the airport while waiting in vain for a delayed flight (Bahh!! The advantage and disadvantage of airport shopping malls). I was walking around when a glitter caught my sleepy eyes, next thing you know I’m trying to bargain for a discount and of course it didn’t work because bargain doesn’t exist in duty free vocabulary, it’s only for flea market. This sunglass traveled with me for a couple of years. I can wear it under the shining sun, on a cloudy day and even in the malls. It was one of the most important accessories in my life, like AMEX , I don’t leave home without it J.Until one Sunday morning, after attending mass, I left it for merely 15 minutesat the front shelve facing where I sat but when I went back it was gone ….kaput! My life has never been the same, I suffered from depression, disturbed sleep and even nightmares…yes it is very dear to me.

Yesterday my husband bought me the latest design and I’m so happy that I almost cried. You see, I’m one of those people who only buy things that are very useful (well to me it is) and I seldom see a thing or design that will suit my taste. That is why it took me almost a year to finally find a replacement for it. I was very excited that even if it was already dark (6:00 pm) I still put it on. At home, I wore it in front of the mirror while brushing my teeth before bedtime hehehe. Then, I placed it at the bedside table and bid goodnite to it before turning off the nite lamp. The next morning I went to the beach as soon as the sun rises and enjoyed the walk finally!

Falling Leaves...

Last night as I sat on the sofa quietly enjoying the tranquil of our home (kids just went to bed), I noticed the shedding of the trees right outside the huge windows that covers almost half of the living room. The trees serve as curtains that covers our floor to ceiling wide glass windows, especially during summer time when the sun shines so bright. The lamp post that is situated between the lush leaves is like a lighting effect of something that looks like a background in the movie. There is a melodramatic feeling watching the leaves being blown slowly away from the tree with the light in the background creating shadows with each leaf. There’s a certain chill in the air that suggests winter is coming. Reminding me to pack up summer clothings, open toe heels to say hello to boots and goodbye to well pedicured toes. I will have to rummage through my old winter clothes to find things that will still fit my ever growing belly otherwise I will be included in the winter shopping list this time J . Isn’t it nice to be always young, that stage where your body goes through so much changes that give you a reason to change wardrobe almost every season if the budget allows. Either way, your parents will have to provide these needs not just for vanities sake. Well, now I realize why my mother have to buy us one size bigger to cover up for at least few seasons…wise move!

The chilly air also reminds me that Christmas is just around the corner and with my hyperactive toddler roaming around, it will not be wise to put up a real tree this time or else it will be like autumn everyday at home (falling leaves due to his constant picking).

About Moi ...
The so-called life of the Lazy frog revolves mostly around the family – three kids, a husband, a nanny and a household full of adventure. A boy in his teens, smart and very curious about everything never runs out of things to ask. A conversation with him should end up satisfying or else the existence of my pea size brain is being questioned,thank goodness for encyclopedias and internet. A girl at the age of nine is the most critical, straightforward, sarcastic and non fearing little B…h! which makes me wanna pull my hair most of the time while listening to that devil in my head saying I am cursed for life! A toddler with one clear purpose in life – to mess up everything he touches. Also, it involves my super wretched (self inflicted ) bestfriend that never let a day passed by without her moaning about some small thing. The Lazy Frog in the meantime is bearing the fourth addition to this chaotic household ( God knows what kind of trouble this one brings). She finds solace from the husband, an extra hand and lots of patience from the nanny and relaxation by being lazy, well she’s entitled to it.
