My good memories of father’s day goes back to  high school and college days.  I usually do the planning on what to make for my Father days before the third sunday of June.  In high school, I think i drew and make a letter for him.  In college, I can already afford to buy a nice greeting card because i took time to save  some cash my mom or dad gives me for school and that only happen once in a blue moon.  Then after college graduation, i still took time to send him greetings for several years until the time come when I only have to speak out to him directly my greetings when he is around.  Meaning if he is not around, then i can’t tell him personally.  I usually send my greetings through my mother if i had the chance to talk with her on the phone.

It’s been many years since the last time i gave him a greeting card.  My father is not a showy of affection type and I really don’t think he appreciates stuff like that, but still, i made it a point to give him tokens to remind him that it was Father’s day and i was thankful he was dad or else i wonder what would i look like if he is not married to my mom.  :)   Whether i like it or not,  some of my facial features are from his genes. :)

Today, it’s another Father’s Day and i am not yet sure what particular thing i will get for him.  But i will later in the morning after fetching Dimple from the Academy.  For sure roses would be corny for him so maybe a pack of cigarette will do or maybe a his favorite kind of coffee!  But those are bad stuff so maybe I will give something else.  :)

If he is on Facebook, for sure he will be one of those i tag using the following LOs i made last week:

Since i lost my camera last week, i thought that it’s now time that i will be posting photoless posts.  Maybe lots of photoless posts.  I think it would not be nice.  I just concluded last week that  every blogger should have a camera (even a phone cam will do) because if there are just many blogable ideas, there are also many blogable objects.  Sometimes, pictures speaks so much that it does not words anymore.

As a blogger and a photography enthusiast, i just really miss my camera.  Although i am already thinking that was a positive loss, yet, i still feel i really miss my little buddy.  He’s always been with me almost everyday except when it’s borrowed.  It’s always in my bag.  I just miss clicking when both batteries are out of power.

I do not dare count the pictures i made within the two years that camera was given to me  but i really have tons of photos made that i have used up all my free account space in Photobucket.

Last night, i went home late because i helped someone make certificates of recognition to several graduating students.  Artistic Award is one and it was so funny because we took some time to find a logo or caricature for the said certificate.  We googled for artists, cartoons, painter, and etc.  There were so many images that came out and i even saw a cad drawing. I wish that we were looking for cad drawing then for sure it would be easy to find because there are thousands and thousands of cad libraries online.

It’s so easy to make the certificate but time is need to find background photos.  We did not have problems in finding athlete logos and also the literary arts.

Good thing the pc of  Sir Q crashed out and we were told we won’t work late tonight.   Hmmm tomorrow starts the big weekend for our seniors.

More stamps!

More postcards!

All these are from Mommy Ebie!  Am so thankful to for sharing all these with me.  I have posted the same pics at my other blog and she commented that they are going back to Death Valley on April and she will send me more cards.  I so love the idea and am excited.

Good thing her daughter, Zeee got some off days from work so they could make long weekend trips to anywhere.  I love their mother-daughter bonding time.  Sounds expensive and tiring yet it’s a very memorable one.

My Project 365 is being updated and you can checked it out here.  I have 22 photos up as of today and that’s the total for my project 365 since i started early in January.  I am suppose to do do clicking daily but because of too much work, I just forgot at times and also when am out I forgot my camera at the office.   Just now, I posted my 22nd photo. :)

I’ve been doing my tasks one by one, from one blog to another and I realized that often I am doing nutrisystem reviews and i find it very informative.  Informative not only for me but for everyone especially those who are on diet and weight conscious.   Earlier i was invited to a birthday celebration at the HR office and before i could start eating, I saw a weighing scale at one corner and automatically I checked my weight and it’s unbelievable.  It seems the weighing scale is broken or just too kind.  hahaha

This is one of the first postcards i received in my life.  My sister and I got this when we were in the 4th grade, 25 years ago. :) The sender was one of our close friends who moved to California that year.

Since then, i got interested in collecting postcards.

The postcards made me see the world beyond my own world.

It’s been sometime i’ve been checking which theme is nice for my digitalscrapbooking blog.  But now it seems I found the right one.  I like the side bar width, the post body width.  Almost perfect because the header still needs work.   I don’t know the tweaking but someone promised to help me on that.

If you have time, go check out my scrap blog and leave some comments if you think am liking the right theme.

I made 2 digital scrap layouts last night and one the past week.  A total of 3 for the first week of 2010.  Now i want to show off my last for 2009.  A layout without using the mouse.  I used my lappy to create this and since i don’t have a mouse yet i tried to make one without a mouse.  And here’s the result -

Someone thinks am doing good with this craft which i don’t accept i do but she wanted me to the baptism invitations for her baby girl and also for her nephew. I wanted to decline but told her to wait a day or two because i will try to approach someone (another friend) who will do it for her if she has time. I remember it was my friend in California who did the dedication invitation of my son so i just can’t turn this down.

Off to CDO

for a day and a half activities. I will be back tomorrow and hopefully i have plenty of photos to share. :)   My banner is ready, too incase we go to places ive never been yet before. :) My mom asked me just now if i still have fare to use going there. I told her not to worry because i have already set aside budget through rv financing. Activities like this should be budgeted or else i can’t attend functions such as this summit i am going to attend to today.
