Aloha Day 19

Beach Day. It’s not our usual beach Thursday, instead Beach Tuesday. We have other plans for Thursday so we squeezed “beach day” in for today.

The rain had woken me up around 530am-ish. I thought I wouldn’t get any more snoozes in, but managed to fall back asleep for another hour. When I finally got up Mama said that it was raining. Looked in the direction of the beach and it looked fine to me, in the other direction though it looked cloudy. No bother anyhow, the rains are just normally a passing thing. So I packed up our “lunch/snack” and got everything together.

Still clear as blue skies… up until we set up “camp” and the kids headed out to the water. Not even 5 minutes and a light shower started to pour. And then the sky opened up. Not a down pour but little more than a passing sprinkle. You could tell b/c the waters were a little “rough” even. The kids remained in the water though. BabyM and I had to get out b/c it was just too cold for me. We sat up at “camp” with Mama and waited for the rain to pass, we watched a number of other families pack up and head home. The thought had crossed my mind but the kids weren’t leaving the water.

I don’t even know how long, but it finally passed. YAY! And then the sun was beaming hot. Took babyM back out to the water and she was having a grand old time. Tried to work on my tan but it’s difficult when the wee one wants to be in the water all the time. And when I say working on my tan, I’m only talking about my legs. Pwahahaha.

We were there a good 3 hours and then came home. That was “Beach Tuesday”

Aloha Day 18

Monday bloody Monday.

All the kids got a haircut today. Even babyM! First it was J. He was in need of some cleaning up, so I took the clippers and cleaned his hair up a bit. Next was babyM, her hair was all sorts of uneven and we had never cut her hair since she was born, so I asked my mom to even her out a bit. I put all the cuttings in a plastic bag to keep. I did it with the other kids too, only thing is don’t ask me where their clippings are. D’oh! Next up was lilmiss. Her hair is pretty but really uneven as well and I figured she could use a cut to stimulate some growth in her hair. It was down to her waist almost and Mama trimmed off about 5 inches. YEAH! That’s a lot I know, but her hair grows fast so it’s okay.

What should have been a trip into town turned into a trip to Salt Lake and Pearl City.

We went to check out the other Target, and ooh wee found some good deals! I spied a 75% off end cap and found a bunch of “summer” line stuff that was on clearance. Got Mom a bunch of things for the house and nothing was over $1.50. Lol. Score. Picture frames, placemats, knives, and the like. The kids even managed to get a little something.

Then it was off to Kmart by the stadium to pick up some shampoo for the girls b/c it was on sale.

Then to Sam’s Club to have lunch and pick up some necessities.

Just a lot of errand running and mundane stuffs.

Aloha Day 17

Today started off on a better foot…. until my laptop decided to crap out on me. I was ready to cry all over again. First for some reason my Firefox went into safe mode. So I decided to quit that and then something else happened so I just said F it and restart the damned thing. Then it went even more downhill from there. Upon start up instead of the Apple it showed my hard drive ( or a picture of it anyhow) so I clicked on that and it led me to my usual log in page to enter my password. BUT… everytime I tried to enter my password certain letters were NOT working. I kept trying over and over again. Had my Mac Genius try to help me and nothing could be done. So I made an appointment over at Ala Moana to have it checked out.

So we made plans to head to Ala Moana. No biggie.

We stayed home the majority of the day and thankfully the tradewinds were in full effect so we spent a lot of time on the lanai.

We ate a late lunch. And when that was done, we headed out to Target.

When we got home I decided to try the computer one more time before my appt tomorrow. Low and behold it was back to normal! YAHOOOOOOOOOOOOOO! So I been trying to cancel my appointment and their stupid concierge is down. But damn my computer is back!

Aloha day 16

Saturdays are spend doing nothing much b/c Mama cleans house and goes to church.

We’ve had a boo boo with the water situation here. The shower had been leaking PROFUSELY and we were running out of buckets so we shut the water off. And now I know what it feels like to take cold tabo tabo showers and have limited water access wow. So our neighbor finally came through and helped us out with that. He’s a contractor but couldn’t figure out something with the knobs or something. And so while he was fixing, I was the one turning water on and off… UNDER the house! Yeah not fun.

And during all this I’m having drama w S b/c of some beezy leaving me messages on FB. Someone I don’t know and can’t figure out where the F she came from or how she found me. Yeah not fun. And I had to keep my composure when all I wanted to do was yell and cry and scream but had the neighbor and his wife coming in and out the house. *sigh*

But it’s safe to say that the shower is fixed and the water is back on and I’m not feeling all nasty anymore.

They all went to church, save for me and babyM. I just wasn’t feeling it after the day I had.

Aloha Day 15

Woke up bright and early and headed off to the open market (aka Farmer’s Market) in Ewa. When my dad was still alive, we used to make the trek all the way out to his old stomping grounds in Wahiawa. Thank goodness we found the one in Ewa b/c Wahiawa is a bit of a trek and once the horn sounds at 9am, by 915am everything is pretty much gone.

It was HOT that day w no tradewind to speak of, so the 2 big kids and I headed down to the library to soak up some free a/c. Mama wasn’t in the mood to go and I wasn’t in the mood to deal with babyM. The kids got a handful of books and we spent a good hour in there reading random things and such.

And that was Friday!

Aloha Day 14

Beach Day! Mom wasn’t too keen on going as the skies were gray and it appeared to be showering in some areas.

Me and the kids weren’t having any of that though and packed up the things, made a lunch, and headed out to lagoon #4.

As we were driving through the parking lot, it seemed crowded, but luckily we have the little blue pass that can normally guarantee us a spot. We found a nice spot under the usual tree and set up shop. babyM already knew what the beach was all about and set off on her own, until she remembered sand and that she didn’t like walking in it much. So I carried her out to the shoreline and she did her thing. As we were there, the beach started to fill up.

After awhile of playing in the sand and water with the kids, it was time to head up to Mama and have a bite to eat, and from there we really realized that the beach had filled up.

Did the beach thing and then headed home.

Aloha Day 13

I don’t recall what we did this day. Probably nothing b/c Thursdays are beach days (that being the next day).

Aloha Day 12

We had no set plans today, only to head out of the house. So as we were driving on the freeway we decided to do some walking over at Waikele Outlets.

I wanted to get N some clothes with her birthday money that she got. Found the best deals at Children’s Place and Gymbo Outlet. Woo hoo and she still has plenty of money to still spend, which I’ll save for the Gap/ Old Navy F&F that’s coming up.

J treated us for lunch and then I bought some malasadas. FINALLY! Those things are little pillows of heaven. Yum!

Made a stop at Times for a few more Capri Suns and then headed home and hung out.

Aloha Day 11

Recovery from party day.

Just a bit of tidying up needed to be done and a little bit of loafy-ness.

We finally headed to the local library and got Mama and J library cards. Damn that place is BEE-YOO-TI-FULL! 2 stories. Lots of space. Lots of Hawaiiana. Lots of books. Found Mom her essential areas of the library and J found a handful of books and so did the girls. I took out some DVDs too. The only thing that sucks is that “rentals” are $1, whereas back home DVD “rentals” are FREE.

Anyhow came home, to find the DVDs so scratched up that we weren’t able to watch them. It was 430PM, library closed at 5PM. So J and I hauled butt back to the library and explained what happened. She tried them out on their equipment and 1 of the discs out of 4 was able to play but she gave us the refund back anyhow. Woo hoo.

Aloha Day 10- PAR-TAY

PAR-TAY day!

Woke up early-ish and did some last minute prep then the birthday girl and I headed out to pick up ice, soda, and the ice cream cake. Came home and all she wanted to do was eat her cake already. Hello, party not for another 2 hours.

Slowly but surely the guests started to trickle in. The appetizers were a big hit and my Auntie A brought over some poke, just for ME . Finally!!! and it was YUM-TASTIC! The kolohe neighbor kids were over early and wreckin havoc. Man I honestly don’t know how their family deals with so many kids. There are 6 of them ranging in age from 12years old to 18 months.

All that matters is N had fun, which she did. She got a lot of good/cute stuff that she was very happy with as well as a bunch of $ that will be spent on replenishing her wardrobe, just in time for school.

Aloha Day 9

Saturday like I said is really rather nothing day. We prepped the house for tomorrow’s party and did any food prep that could be done.

Went to church, and stated that we (the girls and me) would not be attending next week, it’s a longer mass b/c of baptisms and the girls are just out of hand naughty some times.

Came home had dinner and then babyM and I stole some time away together and went to Target for some necessities. The heat has been wreckin havoc on her and I forgot to get some diaper rash cream. Also got some anti itch cream for the kids b/c the mosquitoes are still feasting on us. Also got some crackers for J and popcorn for N. And some small bowls for the party tomorrow. Mom realized she didn’t have any cake plates.

Tomorrow… we PAR-TAY!

Aloha Day 8

We have been here 1 week now and it all feels so natural. Like we’ve always been here. Lol.

Today we just ran errands for Sunday’s upcoming party.

First a trip to the Open Market in Ewa Beach. Fresh veggies, fresh fruits, and fresh from the mornings catch seafood. Oh yeah and even baked Pilipino goodies. I love going b/c I hear all the Manongs and Manangs speaking Ilokano (my family’s dialect). Something you don’t hear all too often back home in the mainland b/c everyone speaks Tagalog. Brings me back to the past at old family parties with my grandma or even when I would go to her house. I would hear her talking on the phone to someone. LOVE IT!

Then it was off to Foodland to pick up some water for the 3 day sale. Remember sticker shock here.

Back home we went to unload and teeter around the house for a bit and then we were off to Pearlridge. I wanted to hit up Price Busters for goodie bag things for the kids that are coming. I decided NOT to get a pinata this year, well b/c funds are low.

Also hit up the babyGap. Dang I always find good stuff here that the kids can wear. I guess things that they don’t necessarily wear here b/c of the weather. Found a cute sweater for the lilmiss, originally $29.50, marked down to $12.99 +25% off. When I got to the register, it was actually $7.99 +25% off, so it was a whopping $5.99 with only a 4.??% tax. Unlike back home it’s 9.5%.

There is a bug exhibit @ Pearlridge and it’s pretty neat. The bugs are huge.

We parked by Macy’s and so on our way out I hit up the kids section there too. Deals upon deals. AGAIN! Finished off babyM’s gift cert. Found her some Hurley stuff. So cute. A sweatshirt that was originally $36 for only $7.99 and a tshirt that was originally $14, for $4.99. And a really pretty Guess blouse that was originally $21.50, $4.99. I’m telling you. I always find such good stuff for the kids in Hawaii.

Then it was off to Costco for some finishing stuff for the party.

Came home, had dinner and then it was to work I went. Rolled lumpia and made spinach dip. Whew!

My toes and fingers feel like sausages. I hate the water retention and the heat. It does things like that to me here. I feel so swollen.

Tomorrow is Saturday, and as you know it’s clean up and church day… so we won’t be doing much of anything.

Aloha Day 7- Hau’oli la hanau lilmiss

Big old 4 years old! She will embark to preschool in the fall *sigh* Where does the time go?

Today she woke up bright eyed and bushy tailed and yet still with much attitude. Her daddy called and wanted to talk to her and she wanted NOTHING to do with the phone. My sister called. Same thing. UGH!

Packed up the truck and headed to Ko’olina. YAY! The kids have been dying to get out there. And as soon as we plunked down and found a spot they were gone for the water. Last year babyM was much to small to even care about the beach, but this year she was on the shore playing in the sand and water. And then when I brought her out in the inflatable honu, she wanted nothing to do with it. She kept trying to get out and get MORE in the water. Lol.

Had a small picnic lunch at the beach, rested up a bit, and headed back into the water. For some reason the sunblock didn’t work on the 2 big kids, despite lathering them up again. They’re both sporting lobster backs. Pwahahahaha.

Came home and Mama fired up the stove and cooked up some pancit (long life). Then we headed out to buy her a pink cake. Guava cake from Napoleon’s Yummy.

All in all I think she had a good birthday. She just needs to work on her grumpiness factor. UGHs!

Aloha Day 6

B/c of Mama’s decision to have a party for N afterall, today I made a few small errands and got out of mom’s hair for a little bit.

We were out and about early today and got so much accomplished. Lol

Headed out to Walmart to make a return and look for some invitations to give to the neighbors. I was afraid that it would be too late to send out invites, but hey the neighbors sometimes just tell us to come over day of, so what then? Lol. There were Princess invites (been there done that), Hannah invites (no), and Tinkerbell invites. So then I went in search of something non-commercial. Why on earth were those so much more? $3 more. So we settled on the Tinkerbell invites.

Then it was done to Times to buy some Capri Sun’s for our beach trip tomorrow. It’s always good to have portable/straw drinks for the kids when we’re out and about anyhow. They were on sale for $1.99. Which to me isn’t really a sale back home, but I’m not back home and sometimes just have to suck up the inflated prices that they pay out here for living out in the middle of the ocean.

Then it was off to Cost.co. I needed to get ground pork for the lumpia that I have to roll up for the party as well as some paper plates and ended up picking up a book and a case of water and some other snacks for the kids. Lol. But I do like the new Co.stco that is closer to mom’s house. Nice, new, and empty! But I’m sure that’s a different story on the weekends. Picked up some hot dogs and made our way back home and it was still only 11AM.

Came home, had lunch, and then took a nap with babyM. Only to wake up and have the neighbor kids running amuck in the house. Had dinner and then lilmiss and I made a trip to order her ice cream cake at BR.

Went to Rad.io Shack first in search of a case for “beloved”. But came up empty handed. When we got to BR, we flipped thru the book only to find NO Tinkerbell cake decor. ARGH!!!!!! How ghey is that? So lilmiss picked Litt.le Mer.maid. I’m a bit peeved that the invites do NOT match the cake, but pfft lilmiss don’t care so it shouldn’t matter right?

Tomorrow she turns 4. *sigh* They’re growing too fast. We have plans for a beach day. YAY!

Aloha Day 5

What started off to be a nothing day evolved into a trip into town.

Before we left, S gave me a giftcard to upgrade my 1st gen iP.hone for the new 3gs. Everywhere in our area they were out of the white 16gb. So I had been checking online the stock out here. All weekend no one had them. Low and behold this morning I went to check and there was stock. So with no coaxing at all, what was supposed to be a Friday trip to Ala Moana, we made it a Tuesday trip.

We waited for the traffic to die down to make the trek out there as well as time it right so that our trip back home we wouldn’t be sitting in traffic either. Been there, done that, and it’s no fun. There’s only 1 way home, unlike back in the mainland there are varying ways to get home. Not here.

First stop. Apple Store. Was crazy like a madhouse in there but it seemed everyone was just playing with the merchandise and feeding off the free internet. Finally flagged someone down only to have him tell me that they were out of my beloved white 16gb 3gs. BULLSHIT! I told him that I checked that morning online and they had them in stock. With much relunctance he decided to check the stock room for me. I told S this very story, and he told me I should have asked for the manager. Anyhow he comes walking out with my beloved. Lol. The process took awhile and he was annoying me b/c he wasn’t a very good salesman. He cared nothing for what I had to say, not even a smidgen of small talk. I know for certain they don’t work on commission but bitch PLEASE! Appease me, I’m plunking down funds here not chump change. After all was said and done I walked out with my beloved and her new Hawaiian style air jacket.

Next stop was just a few steps away at Macy’s, mom’s little indulgence store. I actually still had some gift card left to spend on babyM so we hit that up and successfully found some deals. Then to Shirokiya for their White Taiyaki event. Yum.

We walked the mall some more just seeing what’s new and what not and then headed to Don Quixote Daiei for dinner first and then a bit of grocery shopping. I saw my DVDs that I want. Buttttttt….. not at $105. AUWE. I saw someone selling them online on craigslist for $65 so I might have to try that route.

Hit up Nordstrom Rack on the way out of town. Found some shoes for the kids and saw that Marukai had closed . And finally headed back home.

A very successful trip into town. And I am in absolute love with my new phone, especially the video. I think I’ve been sending S far more videos of the kids than photos as of late.

When we got home, my mom played catch up on the phone with my auntie and in turn ended up deciding that we would have a party for N afterall. So there is a birthday party scheduled for Sunday.

Happy 15th birthday to JWS!!!

Aloha Day 4

Bear with me, it’s not my fault that blogsome has been down. I’ve been itching to post just for memories sake, but they wouldn’t let me. And now I can’t even remember what we did on Monday….

Mom was forcing me out to get the truck washed, for free. When they bought the truck they got a book of free carwashes. They’ve barely made a dent in that book, but that’s b/c the carwash place is all the way out in Waipio by the Cost.co. But I made a day trip out there for all of us. I dropped her and lilman over to Cos.tco first so they could get the new coupon book and the girls and I headed to the carwash. babyM fell fast asleep before we even made it in. Lilmiss always gets a kick out of the conveyor belt style and sitting in the truck whilst it gets washed. By the time we got out and it was time for the boys to spiffy it up, mom and lilman were sitting there waiting on us.

From there we put some juice in the truck, since we were in the area and then headed to lunch at Zippy’s! Finally. Had the chili and of course picked up an apple napple and a long john for later. YUM!

Then it was off to Waikele to hit up Kmart. Mom needed some candles and I wanted a few things from the ad. Remember when things are on sale here, you have to jump. Lol. The spaghetti sauce that I wanted was almost gone. WHew for picking up 2 cans. Then it was off to Border’s to let the lilmiss spend her hard earned gift card that she got at the “study” we did a couple of weeks back. She ended up finding 3 books and I had to spend $4 out of my pocket for them.

Then it was back home for the usual monotony.

Aloha day 3

Another day in paradise.

So I did wake early and apparently so did the girls. My mom said once again babyM was scratching at her shirt but managed to get her back to sleep. The nice thing is that babyM doesn’t “bother” me with the scratching. The magic word hasn’t been said since we departed the plane!

I made it to the market only to once again NOT buy any chxn bc damnit I needed to get a raincheck. Got some other things tho and found that mom had some chicken in the freezer. BBQ was on.

Didn’t do much of anything, went to Walmart and Sam’s Club. Sad to see that there aren’t any new books out. So yeah it was a nothing sort of Sunday.

Aloha day 2

As with all Saturdays with my mom we don’t really do much other than church. Today is normally clean the house day. People always rag on me or ask me what we’re doing today? This is essentially our 2nd home and had we been home, if there are no parties or functions to attend then we stay home.

Lilman pleaded to go to the pool but I’m just not in that mode yet. And that would have required toting the lilmiss along and she’s a pain in the butt at the pool b/c they don’t allow any sort of flotation device.

After dinner we took a trip down to Safeway b/c there were a few things in the ad that I wanted to get. Yeah. There weren’t anymore. And the stupid man who works the counter, who is supposed to work the poke counter was NO help whatsoever. And holy hot damn did I have some sticker shock. I was jonesin for some chips but I guess with these prices it’s best that I don’t have any. Lol. 2 bags of Lay’s for $9 and normally back home sometimes it’s 2/$3 OH HELL!

I’m going to try and sleep early tonight and hit up the market early in the morning, I have big plans to bbq up some chicken *crossing fingers*

Operation “weenie” is going well. My mom managed to keep her in bed with her all night. She said babyM woke up scratching at her shirt around 4:30am, so she got her a cup of milk and a little tossing and turning and she was back to sleep. I actually miss her, but I’ll let her sleep with my mom until full weaning is ensured.

Aloha from Hawaii

It’s already the 11th on the mainland but here on Oahu I’ve still got 3 hours to go. I’m seriously surprised that I am not knocked out like the girls are b/c I only got 3 hours of sleep last night, and any hope of catching any winks on the plane did NOT happen.

Back to last night. The concert was awesome sauce and our seats were the BEST EVAR! We went from nosebleed seats, to okay seats, to the best seats EVAR. Thanks to BM and his radio connections. We met the boys, held the boys, took pics with the boys, and I even got a private little conversation with MR DW himself. Seriously I was a giddy little high school girl all over again. And back then my seats WERE in nosebleed. Heh. But last night, we were closer than you could possibly get!

As for the plane ride, ugh! Both girls were bad. Lilmiss was taking everything and anything away from babyM which in turn pissed her off. Which in turn pissed me off b/c I was afraid what other people were thinking of a screaming unruly child. Lilmiss refused to nap when babyM napped. Then she had to use the bathroom, luckily baby was sleeping but I was afraid of leaving there alone. What if she woke up? What if she fell off the seats? babyM was a wriggly little worm and couldn’t really be confined. But when I let her out onto the aisle all she wanted to do was crawl around on that nasty ass floor and pick things up to eat *gag* At one point they were being so unruly that I spilled water on the boy in front of us. Of course the drop down trays were a lovely “new” attraction to babyM and felt bad for the people in front of us. I think the mom just wanted to sleep and if babyM wasn’t putting up and dropping the tray she was pushing and kicking the back of the seat *sigh*. She also wanted to nurse and make sure everyone could see it too. Ughs. I’m not about letting people see my bits, that’s just me. I’m okay with public nursing but I need to cover my shit up. We made it safely to Mama and lilman tho.

Speaking of lilman… as much as I missed him, he has been annoying me to no avail. AIYAH! All up in my grill.

Back to the nursing thing. So…. tonight we are in full attempt mode at weaning. She is in another bed in a whole ‘nother room from me. I told lilmiss that she would sleep with me and she wasn’t having it. She said her place was in bed next to Mama. So we let her fall asleep there but moved her stealthily back next to me, I’m wondering what kind of shit fit she’ll have in the morning and hopefully not in the middle of the night.

I always forget how hot and tropical it is here. I had to take a shower tonight to get that sticky ickiness off me. I’m really hoping the mosquitoes stay AWAY from me. Lilman has enough bites for all of us so hopefully I can get away unscathed this summer.

Was hoping for some tako poke but a las I settled for some home cooking. Made it out to the new Tarjey already and DAMN that ish is HUGE! Funny the things I take for granted, I forgot a toothbrush and deodorant so I made a run out that way.

The final countdown.

We are in the home stretch. Today is the 5th of July and NKOTB is in 4 days and we leave for Hawaii in 5. HOLY MOLY Batman I am so not ready for this.

Yesterday we spent our freedom at a picnic in the East Bay with my sister and her friends/family. S and the girls swam while I sat around. Food was good and plentiful and everyone seemed to have a good time. We were s’posed to stay and watch the fireworks out there until my niece said we would be walking up some hill that wasn’t very child friendly, so we decided to make the trek back home. Lilmiss was none to happy about it b/c she made a friend and was hoping to watch the festivities with her. I already knew she was beyond tired though and making that trek up and back would not have been a fun one. We caught a few random fireworks on the drive home though and she missed them ALL b/c she was knocked the heck out!

So guess what? BOTH girls are sick and so am I. Ughz. I have that achy all over feeling and congestion and gala galas. Ick! babyM has the faucet nose and cough and lilmiss has a cough. Fun, fun, fun! NOT! Just what I need huh? The house is in shambles and all I really want to do right now is flush my system with a steaming hot shower just so my head can feel clear.

Hope your 4th was nice and you enjoyed your day.
