Date Night

January 7, 2011 by Sheila | A B & Me 3 Comments

Hello gorgeous!!

Date night is with my girl friends, Lyn and Zahra. We decided to go have dinner and just do a little retail therapy last night. Here’s my humble haul:

Got myself a cool lime green planner. It’s no moleskine but I love love love the cover and the paper… OMG the paper! I can’t decide if its rough or smooth. LOL!

And I literally squeeled when I saw these…

Essence Most Wanted and Choose Me!!

I’m sure she won’t admit it but I saw the sales attendant jump a little bit when I shrieked like a little girl when I got my hands on Choose Me. I totally lost all hope that these will ever be available in Dubai. I kept asking and asking if they will be updating their collection.

I asked and asked until I just got tired asking. If you’ve been following my posts, you would have realized by now that I don’t actually go out of my way to buy nail polish. (That’s why I still don’t have the OPI Burlesque Collection, I just can’t be bothered to go to the showroom where they sell OPI, sorry).

Seeing these bottles really made my day. I had no intentions of buying nail polish since I still have to swatch the rest of my Models Own Autumn/Winter Collection and my No 7 (by boots) collection… they’re just sitting there… waiting to be loved. But, Choose Me and Most Wanted… they can’t be ignored!

In fact, I started painting my friends nails while having coffee!

 

Yes, we have polish remover. We are weird like that.

Take a closer look at Choose Me.

Till next post!

Hey there! I’m a mom of two who loves to crochet. Balancing work and motherhood is crazy, but I handle it with love and humor. With my eldest entering her tween years, the chaos just got a whole lot more interesting!

I’m fueled by coffee and dream of working from home. When I need to chill, I turn to my trusty essential oils. They’re my secret weapon for staying sane in the madness.

Join me for mom life, crochet, and my journey to work from home and retire before life passes me by.

    I know this if off topic but I’m looking
    into starting my own blog and was curious what all is
    needed to get setup? I’m assuming having a blog like
    yours would cost a pretty penny? I’m not very internet savvy so I’m not 100% certain.
    Any suggestions or advice would be greatly appreciated. Many thanks

    Hi Miss Bun!!! Nice to hear from you.
    I know I get crazy with paper sometimes. I end up buying notebooks and not really use them (totally hate my handwriting… LOL!!)

    You are SO funny. “I can’t tell whether the paper is smooth or rough, LOL!” and you’re so giddy over notebook paper.

    (I’m the same way. Bwahahaha)

Hello!

Hey there!
We’re a Filipino family of four figuring things out in California after living in Dubai for years. This space is part blog, part memory box—where we share life lately, parenting wins and fails, travels, and everything in between.

Sometimes it’s deep, sometimes it’s funny, but it’s always honest. Thanks for hanging out with us!

I’ve been thinking a lot about the whole “YOLO I’ve been thinking a lot about the whole “YOLO” mindset. It sounds fun — and sometimes it IS harmless. But when we let it guide our decisions without pause… it can turn into a habit of acting first, thinking later. 

This post is just something I made to process that idea. What if we shifted from the YOU ONLY LIVE ONCE to YOU ONLY DIE ONCE? 

It’s not being a buzzkill. It’s about modeling self-control, delayed gratification, and faith in action—even when it’s not popular. 

What do you think: YOLO or YODO?

Ps. I shared more of the story behind this thought over on @threads if you’re curious (same handle!)

You’ve been my constant for 20+ years—through chaos, kids, and late-night cravings. You serve, you provide, you love us like crazy. We’re so lucky! 

You’re really a hard habit to break.
