Billy Having Fun On The Beach
The video was taken while on our trip to SF recently. It's pretty cold and windy but Billy still having fun running around on the beach. Enjoy!
Sorry For MIA
Sorry I have been missing so much lately. After came back from the trip, I had to work on a little project and it took me several days to get it done. Ahem…What project was it, nothing big so I will just keep it in my closet….hehe.
Last Monday dear hubby went to New Orleans on a business trip and only returned home last night. Since he brought my laptop with, I had to use his computer. I had all the pics I wanted in flash drive for my posting and guess what? For some reason, I have problems to open IE and it goes on for two days. The only program I could open was Skype and YM. Gheeesh, that's really annoyed. I cannot even check my email.
Hah! Good thing dear hubby only went for three days trip otherwise, I would make his computer commit suicide. He said could make it work through his lab ‘lock in’ but he had the key his briefcase and it was with him.
So happy I got my laptop back and dear hubby got his computer working again. He did just that, lock in to his lab's puter and got it work from there. We need new computer!
BTW, any of you watch American Idol? This week, Jason Castro, the charming guy, sang 'Somewhere Over The Rainbow' and he did a great job. It's my all time favorite song. Suprisingly, Kathy Lee Cook is getting better every week. Who will leave the show tonight? Maybe nobody will leave this week as its Idol Give Back Week. We will see.

We Are Back!
We are back in the Oak Ridge. So happy everything is back to normal again. Now I got my laptop back all for myself so more time to update my blog…..hihi! Thank you for all the comments and kindly wishes you left in my blog while I was away.
Our trip was okay. Billy was not at his best the whole week because of his teething. But he is getting better, good rest and school help a lot. San Francisco was not as what I was expected, unfortunately. It’s really surprising to see a large number of beggars in S.F downtown. Other than that, S.F is a really interesting city. I love the cable car, really cool.
We stayed at the Marriott Hotel in downtown San Francisco on the whole trip. I like the room, pretty big room with a nice view of the downtown. The room had a mini bar and a refreshment center. As expected the price was like 4 times the regular price in the store and once you move the snacks the machine will automatically bill the price to your account. Cool, huh! To add to the crazy price is additional 20% for the restocking fee. Restocking fee? Ain’t that pathetic?
The refreshment center.
The Mini Bar.
For a couple of times while relaxing after a long day, I was tempted to just close my eyes and grab the M&m from the tray....haha! Hey, for 7 days pretending not to see that yummy stuff in front of your eyes was insane. But eventually until day seven of our stays, the tray was still full except for the one empty spot.….hehe!
On the first day in S.F we were able to browse around in Chinatown. I thought the Chinatown in S.F is the largest in the USA. I might be wrong.
The Gate To Chinatown.

San Francisco Trip 1
Sorry for neglecting my blog for many days. We are on day 3 in San Francisco and I am blogging at 5.00am while dear hubby and my son are still sleeping. But this is the only time I could do it peacefully…. haha!
I wanted to make at least one post before we leave for our trip but Billy has a fever on Friday. He was a little better on Saturday and we went to Easter Vigil at 7.30pm and did not get home until 9.30pm. After put Billy to bed, I continue my packing and called my family back home to wish them Happy Easter before went off to bed after midnight. That’s midday back home….hihi!
Meds, soup, applesauce, crackers and extra batteries for the cam.
Soaps, cereals, bowls and stamps etc.
Blooming everywhere.
It's spring!
Our trip from Tennessee on Sunday was a little crazy. Yeah, I guess like many people says ‘tired kids + long flight’ is not a very good combination. What more if they are not feeling well. Billy started crying when we were queuing for check in and continue when we board on the plane. :-(
After landed in snow covered Chicago O’Hare Airport about two and a half hours later, dear hubby bought him soup for lunch but it ends up in trash. The only food he takes was his crackers. He did not even want to drink milk. I was happy he slept through halfway of the almost 5 hour's flight from Chicago to San Francisco. Huh! So glad that after this trip, it would be a while before we fly again. On the next conferences in Washington DC in June and later in Pennsylvania in August we are going to drive. It's a long drive but I would enjoy it much better. Dear hubby said he would enjoy it too if he sit on the passenger seat….haha!
Ready for the trip.
Okay, dear hubby and Billy are waking up. More story later. :-)
