The Memorial Golf Tournament


Wohooo! We just got home from the Memorial Golf Tournment at Muirfield. It was my first experience to see a professional golf tournament! I like it enough to say that I enjoyed it. The place was huge! I just wanna complain because we had to walk maybe 85% of the entire time we were there so we can see how vast that golf place is! My feet and hips were aching at the end of the day...oh i just noticed you know, not only the players were damn good...they have nice butt! Awwww! LOL!

One thing more, I also noticed girls that looked stupid wearing high heels! I mean come on! Do you go there for some attention? I don't think someone will noticed you for your red/bruised aching heels, well maybe yah...you got my attention (in a bad way) but you just looked awfully funny!
Too bad though we can't bring camera and cellphones inside. So JJ and I posed outside where we had parked the CR-V!

The Pet Trail Highbanks Metro Park

Wow, everybody woked up today with lots of energy, whats up with that??? Very unusual for the Fuzzy familieh eh? Anyway, JJ had been talking about his walk adventure one lunch time with his co-worker who are also trying to loose weight. He kept bragging about how pretty it was up there. So today, we are going and I won't be leaving the house without my fuzzies!

So the whole familieh boarded into the crave and off we got to the Highbanks! Sunny and Star were very excited, however since they were with us, we are limited into using the Pet Trail.

The fuzzies had so much energy. Why not? The momma had been so lazy taking them out for a walk. No wonder she's getting fat! LOL! Anyway, to slow them down from dragging me, I started running with them to burn those energies. Sure enough it works! Now its time for a little drinkie-drink using the poo-poo bag as their water bowl.

There was a tiny creek that we had to stop for some picture taking. The fuzzies were curious and would like to check it out. The water seems clean and its cold, like it just came out from the fridge. I remember our little irrigation at the back of our house in Bansalan. We used to hang out there with some mangoes and dipping fish sauce!

Highbanks Metro Park Pet trail is not bad at all. We enjoyed the walk exercise and meeting a few dog owners along the trail. Everyone is surely glad getting intouch with nature, even the ticks had fun getting intouch with my babies coat (grrr!) now its time for some K-9 advantix!

We hope to be able to go back here once more, but not sure if the fuzzies are coming :( I just hate it when those damn ticks are feasting my babies skin. I think the fuzzies are safe at the dog park, we'll see!

Botkier it is!


I slowed down with my bad bag addiction this year, thank God! Ops, except from a couple coach card cases purchase last month err i mean last couple weeks ago. However, for the past weeks, I experience a horrible withdrawal syndrome. Each time I have a spare time, I am infront of my laptop browsing the tpf forum about purses! I tell you that place is bad on your wallet! Darn, so to make it short....yah, I gave in to the urge, argh! and Lulu satchel came in a hurry.



...so, what do you think??? now i really wish someone could stop me from this addiction.
Bag rehab, i supposed???

...if there is only such a thing! :(

Its JJ's Birthday!

My hunny bunny is one year older today! Its going to be a busy day. First off, we went to this Hobby Store somewhere in Gahanna. JJ wanted to work on his old favorite toys that he found in one of the boxes at the basement. Then we droved down to Prime Outlet Mall at Jeffersonville. My friend Lyn, wanted me to get her a Coach purse. I got her a really good deal. I also got me 2 Coach Soho card cases, in black and white color. I am the kind of person who doesn't bring cash for the most part. So this card cases are just perfect for me.

It was pretty thin at the mall which is not a bad idea. We had no problem getting a parking and transactions were pretty quick. Next I took JJ to a Nike store. I wanted to get him a tennis shoes and was so glad he found one that he truly loves. Next and final stop was the Old Navy store, where I got him few pair of jeans and also got me a white skinny pants. It was such a good deal shopping into outlet mall like this and I can only hope they were a little bit more close to home.

So we head back home. Sad for the birthday celebrant but true! We had to mow the yard on his birthday! The grass were tall enough and if we will wait, the next few days will be rainy and then before we could finish it, we had to hurry and change clothes for his birthday dinner at Mitchell's Steakhouse of Columbus. I had reservation at 7PM. I was a little bit bum. I think his friends wanted to go out with him for dinner and then as soon as we told them that we will be at Mitchell's Steakhouse, they backout. This place is a little bit expensive, I hope they understand that while we wanted to spend time with friends, I wanted my Babe to celebrate his birthday to a very nice restaurant where he will enjoy superb dining experience. Sure enough, the food was so amazing! Everything was good! We both enjoyed it! I would like to mention also that his place offers Japanese Kobe beef. I dunno if you heard about it but it is supposed to be one of the top graded beef in Japan. Its well marbled and very tender. This is super expensive and JJ being a steaklover will only order it once we can shout to the whole world that we are debt free???!! Haha, we wish! Well, anyway, Happy birthday to my dearest JJ. I love you and pls. know that you are my everything...you and you and only you!
