Christmas celebration is over! Hb, daughter and I had lots of fun despite of the fact that we're only three at home celebrating the réveillon de Nöel. Too bad, I didn't took photos that much because the memory cards I had with my Canon Ixus 980 IS digital camera isn't big enough to hold unlimited photos. I am thinking of buying a new one but I prefer to wait for the big after Christmas sale for some good deals!

I remeniscents the day daughter A was born, her Papa always took videos of her petite cherié with his Sony HD camcorder, capturing every moments of her daughter's young and tender age. For me it seems like yesterday. Time really flies huh! Now our baby is grown up into a beautiful young lady and yes, looking back at those times made me realized that JP and I are not getting any younger anymore. Agarayyyy!!

Gaining weight is easy but losing them is one hard thing to do especially for someone like me who's not a sports enthusiast. Actually I love hiking but I've been lazy these past few days due to the cold and freezing weather we had. I know I need to control my eating habit or else I will end up taking diet pills to shed these extras kilos I got.

Switzerland is such a nice country with magnificient mountains (the Swiss Alps) and it's beautiful scenery. And living not far from the Swiss border is an advantage for us, because we can visit there anytime we want to without any visa needed. Swiss is famous not only for thier bon chocolats Nestlé but also a home of the finest and good quality Patek Philippe watches. Patek Philippe are the one who manufactured the first ever wristwatch in 1868.
This is a photo of the Swiss Alps taken in one of our trips in Switzerland last spring.

Home repairs and maintenance often costs a lot of money particularly if your property is situated near the beachfront where salty water and humidity is so high. I can see it in our vacation home in PI. Such a pain thinking that every year part of our budget goes to home repairs and maintenance. Last summer we had the house getting re-painted again and had the outdoor and indoor lighting replaced. I hope it would last for a long time.

Autumn and winter season makes me feel lazy all the time. I hate going outside even for just a short walk unless I don't have any choice at all.

I've notice also that cold days stimulates appetite as well, good thing there's appetite suppressants that helps curb our cravings:)

Last summer while on vacation in the Philippines, I experienced gum infection problems. I didn't pay much attention to it for I thought there's nothing really serious. But when we return in France the pain never stop bothering me, I decided to see my dentist and had antibiotics for a week. I was also told to return to the clinic 4 times for a thorough check-up which was then followed by several treatments. Luckily, for now this gum infection problem is getting over and I never spent any centavo for all the treatments done. Thanks to our family health insurance who shoulder everything!
Btw, that's meh below w/mama and her sister neng:)

I'm not particular of wearing high-heeled shoes but these past few days I noticed severe pain on my left foot mostly when I get off in bed in the morning. At first I thought it was just a mild nail infection but the pain kept bothering me. I'm afraid this might be the so-called Plantar Fasciitis. I browse on the net and read reviews about it trying to find the right medication and treatment but, hubby said it's better to call and see our doctor to know what's exactly going on. Well, let's wait and see.

Nimfa is a native Bicolana and a good cook. She's one of my bff living in Belfort which is about 100 kms away from our place. I was glad the weather wasn't that bad enough and JP and Alyssa agreed to came with me. lol* Nimfa cooked our very own pinoy foods and it was all yummy! Everybody had lots of fun, enjoying the sumptious lunch she prepared and the non-stop chikka-han and laughters too. I told them that, it was certainly our last get2gether for the season (autumn & winter) since JP and I avoid travelling by car at this time of year.

Autumn is the best season of the year aside from springtime. I can say that I'm lucky enough to have lived in this beautiful place known to be the green City of France where autumn foliage is truly spectacular each year. But I admit autumn has it's negative side as well and this is what I hate most. I noticed that when autumn comes, rains & winds are present and because of these.. temperature will start getting colder too. I miss those times when you can wear sexy tops and flip-flops freely without the risks of getting sick. Now, it is necessary to cover ourselves or else bonjour chez le docteur. lol*

When I first came here in France, way back 17 years ago.. it was a lot difficult for me for I can't understand or knew how to speak the French language. Learning French isn't that easy but as time goes by with the help of JP and the audio book hubby bought for me I learned to speak thier language little by little. And now, I am proud to say "Je parle français couramment" wink* How about you? Wanna learn french?

After dropping off Alyssa at a friend's house JP and I went straight to Leroy Merlin to get bathroom lighting fixtures needed at home. Right after, we went to the countryside enjoying a short walk in the woods.
Autumn is really great! the different vibrant colors of autumn leaves are truly spectacular. How I wish weather would be like this all year long. wink*

She told me that they're using airbrush spray in painting doors, walls and ceilings because it's a lot more easier to use. I will probably give it a try!

Few days ago, I heard my daughter Alyssa complaining about her Sony Laptop computer being so slow. I told hubby about it and he said that for a three year old computer that she had, it's quite normal that the system is no longer running like new.

I tried surfing on the net hoping to find one compatible RAM for her Sony laptop Computer and glad to came across 4allmemory.com. A one stop shop memory specialist!

Last december, hubby is so kind enough to offer me a new Sony laptop computer as my christmas gift. So, I've passed the old laptop I had to my daughter Alyssa but just recently she was complaining because everytime she wants to download music, videos or play on her PC, it is running to slow. I think it is best to install a system memory on her computer to improve speed and performance.

5) tickle hubby’s “nez et ses oreilles” of course, he hates it but, i always told him “fais moi plaisir” lol* lalo na pag ginawa ko iyan when he’s sleeping .. instead na magalit cya.. tawa nalang.
6) when hubbby cooked his fav “cuisine” for just the three of us. usually kasi, ako palagi ang nagluluto sa bahay at since kabisado ko na lahat ang luto ko.. there are times na ma miss ko pa rin ang “choucroute at poulet rôti” nya.
