I wonder if I should let my boy pick up drum too? It seems pretty cool knowing how to play the drum set. Our place will be too small to have one, so he can only learn and practice that at the music center.
It’s his music and art event at school today, hopefully, he will find some fun seeing others playing the drum set and is willing to learn. But then again, he doesn’t have time to practice his piano, can he pick up another musical instrument?
We shall see.

We got great DIRECT TV DEALS and decided that it was finally time to get television at our cabin on Lake Minnetonka. We have owned the place since nineteen eighty seven. Our kids love to go up there and play in the water in the summer. There is a ton of things to do. One thing that they don’t like to do is visit the cabin in the winter. They always complain that it is too cold and that there is nothing to do. Now that we have outfitted the cabin with flat screens and added television service I think that we may be able to convince them to bring our grandchildren and come to the lake in the winter. I think that we should spend either Thanksgiving or Christmas up there next year. I think that it would be a lot of fun. Since we finally have tv, I just don’t know how they could disagree! I can’t imagine something being more fun than family gathered by a fire in a cozy cabin nestled by the lakes edge in Minnesota.
I’m only running a small biz so I am renting a room from SIL’s company. But hopefully, I will be able to expand our biz and own our office building soon. It doesn’t have to be big but just 3 rooms and a storage room with steel shelving. I’m thinking about town houses, which are nicely situated in non flooded areas!
That’s why I must work harder this year. It’s going to be a busy year for us!
So, what’s the plan for the coming CNY? Frankly, I don’t have any! We didn’t plan to go anywhere this year, but just staying at home??? Serious?
Maybe the adults can drink Bacardi and smoke swisher cigars while the kids kill their brain cells with iGadgets. 
What a way of celebrating CNY!
Hopefully, there is a last minute plan of going somewhere. I need a break!
How’s about New Year celebration? We had a good time being away even if there is some small hiccup. Dad fell sick after the trip. 
Anyway, it’s not something serious and he is doing better now.
I’m back to my Network Administrator Jobs and will be very busy chauffeuring the kids to school soon. Life will soon be back to normal and busy!
Our new place is nice even if it’s not completely renovated yet! It’s taking so long, I just wish that it will be over soon and we can finally call it home.
I’ve almost envy those with long, full and curvy eyelashes. They don’t even need mascara to look pretty! My eyelashes are pretty scarce, just like a typical Chinese. I’ve gone through some eyelash growth product reviews and I’ve tried a few. I can’t say that they don’t work but few can show me any significant result.
So, the only way would be getting myself a lash extension, but it might pull off my real lashes when falling off. So, there is no win win situation here!
I went to the hospital a couple of days ago and it’s not as crowded as it used to be. It was flooded before but it’s all cleaned up now. However, there are a lot of papers and hospital computer carts at the basement parking lot which are yet to be disposed.
I hope that it’s not some important health records of critical patients as most of the records are computerized these days.
We have been so busy with condo renovation lately, and totally stressed with the biz and cash flow. By losing most of our stuffs in the flood, we might need some time to recover financially and mentally. I can’t buy gold bullion from Golden Eagle any sooner nor going on a holiday spree.
I very disappointed with lots of things right now, and my work is not helping either. I’m totally stretched and have been so busy until I don’t have time for lunch for 2 days already. Argh…
I wonder if I should buy more cheap sunglasses sold at the stalls or get a pair of expensive designer sunglasses instead? I haven’t been shopping for a month, especially since the flood and got used to living out of suitcases. Everything is minimal for us now.
Frankly, I would rather spend money on getting our condo ready, and replacing those things we have lost in the flood than buying a pair of sunglasses!
So I guess I won’t be getting one after all.

My town has a little Halloween parade every where that anyone and everyone can walk in, so I thought that this year I would take along our dog and dress him up for the occasion too. Up until now I had never tried to put him in a costume because I just assumed that he would really hate it. But once I got the idea to make him march in the Halloween parade, I decided that I would follow through with it and get him to wear a costume.
I went online to see if I could find a dog costume for him that wouldn’t feel too restrictive. When I was doing that, I ran across some internet providers in my area and after that I decided to change over my internet service to one of those providers.
I found a cute little dog costume that was of a little wizard, so I decided to go with that. My son dressed up as Harry Potter, so we just said that the dog was Dumbledore. Everyone in the parade gave him lots of compliments.
