Themed sleep wear

It's dark outside and it's drizzling. It makes me want to go back to bed. But instead I am window shopping and looking for comfortable sleep wear.

Would you think I am insane if I find nursing scrubs cute for sleep wear? Hehehe. I do.

Here's some I found which I want to buy as my sleep wear.

Scooby Doo

Ghosts, just in time for Halloween

And of course, Santa. Just right for the coming holidays.

Seriously, I want one. It looks comfortable. And it's fun too.

Saturday 9: I'm so Proud

Taking a break from shopping...I am joining a meme. Saturday 9: I'm so Proud. For more participants, please click on the photo below.



1. What are you proud of?
+ I am proud of my life. Some people look down on SAHMs but I don't care anymore. I know who I am to DH, to my son, and to my family.

2. What is the best thing you’ve ever won as a prize? How did you win it?
+ Materially speaking, I've won a wifi plug it in from a credit card's raffle draw but I haven't claimed it until now.

3. Tell us about something you've done that in retrospect was a waste of time.
+ I couldn't think of anything in particular. Hmmm..maybe building a relationship that's bound for a disaster even at the start.

4. How old were you when life changed the most for you? How did it change?
+ I was a few days shy of turning 28 when it happened. I gave birth to the most beautiful baby boy. And from then on, life became more exciting, hopeful, beautiful...

5. Tell us about a place you that you've been that you considered to be very tranquil.
+ I'd have to say a town named Kep here in Cambodia.

6. Who is your favorite news anchor/reporter? Why?
+ I don't watch much television these days. I don't know the names of the anchors or reporters anymore. Sorry.

7. If you were to have the opportunity to name a new town or city, what would you call it? Why?
+ I'd call it circuit city. It has a nice ring to it =)

8. What is something about which you've always wondered but have not yet found a good answer?
+ What goes on the kids' minds?

9. When you can't go to sleep, what is your personal remedy to help yourself drift into Lullabyland?
+ Nothing special. I just try to close my eyes and try not to move.

Wooden cases are cool

With the holidays 'round the corner, I have started my christmas window shopping already.

I only have a few people on my list so shopping and wrapping won't be too hard. But I want to start early so I can get the best pressie for each one on my list.

I was browsing through thisnext's recommended items and I came across these two products for ipod.

A wood ipod case. Perfect for DH. If I buy this, that means I have to buy an ipod for him too. Hahaha!!!

iWood by Miniot. Pretty cool! DH could use it for iPhone or maybe iPod Nano. He's planning to buy one anyway.

I've bookmarked the site. I will browse for more possibilities of course, before deciding which to buy. I need two pressies. One for his upcoming birthday this November and another one for Christmas.

To live in a glass

Literally!!!

My default home page is yahoo. It's for good reason. I always see something interesting. And today, I saw these beautiful modern homes for sale from yahoo real estate.

And my! What a beauty they all are. I have two favorites:

~~~

"Art and Surf" - Montauk, NY
For Sale: $12,500,000

Journey out to the end of Long Island, NY to find this modern, oceanfront gem. Enjoy glass-walled open living on the main floor and head upstairs to the private master that is set perpendicular to the main floor. Ceiling-to-floor windows on the main floor can be thrown open to let the sea air in, or to slip into the lap pool and spa. Walk down the stairs to your own private beach.

"The Glass Pavilion" - Santa Barbara, CA
For Sale: $35,000,000

In what architect Steve Hermann calls his "greatest achievement," the "Glass Pavilion" is set within an oak grove on 3.5 acres in Santa Barbara, CA. Glass wraps around the exterior of this 14,000 sq ft home and inside are big, wide-open spaces with contemporary furnishings and design. A wine room can hold several thousand bottles and the expansive art gallery presently contains a vintage car collection that can hold up to 32 cars within its walnut-lined walls.

~~~

If only I could afford this. But then again, you can never be too rich and too thin at the same time, right? I'll just buy some diet pills to help me shed pounds. I don't think I could afford any of these homes in my lifetime anyway.

But then again, who knows, right? I'll try skipping latte today. LOL!

Themed Dresses

Would you like to wear a garbage bag? Not in a million, right? But what if the garbage bag looks like this?

Photo by: stateofdress.blogspot.com

I read this from shine.yahoo.com. The artist creates themed dress sculptures in all 50 states. The dress above represents New York. It's called New York's garbage dress. Pretty interesting, right?

I think the model should have tried indoor tanning lotions before putting on the dress. Just my opinion. Don't take me seriously though. LOL!

To see the rest of the artist's creation, follow the blog or read it from yahoo.
