My Comfort Zone

I am a music lover, but I must admit, I don’t know how to play any musical instrument and I am not interested to learn either. I just love listening to music either on my iPod, iPad or our stereo. My husband loves music too so we really get along with that although our tastes differ. Thing is, he can play an instrument, the guitar.

I am pretty aware of the different kinds of musical instruments although I don’t know how to use them all like that arturia from musicians friend. It is a synthesizer and I guess it is used to blend the music? I am not sure of that so correct me if I am wrong. I’d appreciate it.

Those JewelryVortex’s mens wedding bands are so nice I want to grab one for the husband. He definitely needs to have one after losing his wedding band while mowing. That band was not a snug fit on his finger so it slipped without him knowing.

Later we just saw the half of it. Meaning, he probably ran over it with the mower cutting it in two. We only found the half and other half is still lying out there in the yard somewhere. We have no plans of looking for the other half because I don’t think we will ever find it.

One thing is for certain though, he will get himself a new one. When? Only he knows. If I had the money now, I would go shopping pronto. But no budget on my part, so, sorry Hubby! (“,)

I don’t know when my fear with dogs started but, up to now, I still have it. It’s not a phobia because I am not afraid of the little ones like the Chihuahuas, dachshunds, etc. Only those big dogs like the pit bulls, boxers and the like. Those that weigh 50 pounds or more because being the petite me, it makes me feel like they’re bigger than me and I’ll be one helpless human being once they jump at me.

More than anything though, there were a lot of instances in my home country where people were bitten by dogs and that is one scary thought. There were a lot of stray dogs there. If only they were tied up or wore one of those sportdog training collars perhaps, then I would have felt safe around them.

I know I am being such a scaredy cat, but I’d rather be called that than be sorry.

I hope no one will make a fool out of me today. Well, it’s not a big thing in my home country so I don’t think any of my friends will do something. But I am not in my home country now. I’m here in the land of Uncle Sam where this day is actually emphasized in the calendar.

Well, if there’s one person who will play tricks on me, it will be no one else but my Hubby. Let’s wait and see what he’s got for  me today. Or maybe he’s way too scared to do anything. Teehee.

What exactly is a talkbox? Is it something that people who yak a lot use? If so, I will need to get the best talkbox for my husband. LOL.

But let me get it straight. My husband yaks in a good way, okay? Or let’s say, he yaks sensibly. He’s the type of person who is so sociable. He can talk to strangers for hours. Really! He is gregarious, as what he describes himself.

Okay, I think I’ve talked enough about my Hubby. Time to find out what talkbox exactly is. I came across it online; that’s why I mentioned it.

I don’t consider myself health conscious which I think could be bad, huh? Well, I am just not into things like organics or gluten free and all that bunch of stuff. I eat what’s on the table and I eat it with gusto. But for certain, I do know my limitations. Although I must admit that even though I will eat a bucket of food every meal, I don’t gain weight.

Yeah, I’ve always been skinny. I really want to gain a little weight, but what can I say? It is easy for me to lose weight, but it is so hard to gain it. For some, I guess, they think I am lucky. LOL.

I love eating and I am actually hungry now. So, when I read about the benefits of green smoothies today, I craved for some. I love smoothies, most especially when I was still back in my home country where the temps most times stay in the 90’s throughout most of the year. It was my way of freshening up – grabbing a glass from my favorite restaurant with a friend.

It is cold today with the highs only in the 40’s, but if I get a chance, I will find me some smoothies.

It has been like this for months now. On and off. On and off. It is so annoying especially that I have my business online.

My husband already called our provider and they only gave us a temporary line and promised to fix it soon. But where were they? Nowhere. My husband has been thinkjng of switching, and I have been checking on it, but I think it would cost us much. So yeah, I think we got the cheapest. No wonder the service is also cheap. Grrr!

If they will still notmdo anything about this this week, I am going to call them myself.

When life throws you trials, don’t you ever wish that you were a kid again who just keeps on playing and think of the world as a playground? Or a flower perhaps that stays alive and beautiful with only its needs of water and sunlight? Or how about a wall, that just stays there strong even with the constant pounding of the weather? Or how about pureflex teflon hose that even though it is constantly used, it stays intact? And the list goes on.

But those are just wishes and the kind of wishes that are impossible. And like what we always hear, God will never give you trials that He knows you can’t handle. And I believe that. So, I am holding on. Until when? That, I don’t know.

My husband was wowed when I showed him the array of classic Washburn Guitars that I saw online. Playing his guitar is one of his favorite pastimes, and if only he had the budget, he would collect guitars, for sure. I really have no doubt of that.

What he has now is an acoustic guitar and he would love to have one of those guitars or an electric guitar. I would love to see him play one too. He would rock it for sure.
