D Day…

…As in departure day.

Today, Ate Meriam will leave for a two-month vacation. She has been with us since April of last year. Actually, that is already her second term. We got her October of 2007, then she left in 2009 then she returned last year.

She is really good in taking care of us, specially my two girls when I am at work. And while it is hard not to have her around, I cannot deprive her of seeing her own children and grandchildren. Anyway, she will back by September, before we hit the white sands of Boracay.

Meanwhile, I have talked to our laundry/iron woman if she could help us as a stay-out helper. She already agreed but now, I am having second thoughts. Tatay is always with us here at home and so is Nanay. I think we can do all the chores ourselves, besides, nobody else can take care of Maxyn except me or Mond.

To our Lola Meriam, have a safe trip and we will miss you!

Techie Girls

I only have until 1:25 PM (PH time) so I better make this quick.

My SIL went to our room this morning and opened the modem. The girls were still sleeping at that time and I cannot leave the bed yet. So I took advantage of my LG GT505‘s wifi capability. I was able to browse in Facebook, check my emails and even chat in YM! I never knew I could use my phone like that.

Then hubby asked me to prepare his packed food. When I returned to our room, Ayex is already awake and was tinkering my phone. She told me she wanted to watch Smurfs in youtube. Hubby objected and told me to get the netbook my SIL gave Ayex instead. That netbook was supposedly mine but she put her name on it first.

Somehow, I cannot not make Zoodles work in that netbook. So I told her that I will just lend her sapphire, this laptop that I use. So Ayex is using the laptop and I am fixing the netbook. (I should give that a name.) I restarted it and it installed tons of updates. Upon boot up I was able to install Zoodles.

And this is how we looked like a few minutes ago.

Maxyn also has a toy desktop, which Ayex originally owns. It will never surprise me if Maxyn will also ask for own laptop or netbook when she turns four-year-old.
