Happy and Sad

I have had a wonderful few weeks of "Giggling While I Work", and on many occasions, truly LOL'ing...because I have been rewatching for the (?)th time, Parks and Recreation. 

LURVE LURVE LURVE Parks and Rec. Whenever the theme song comes up, my body gets happy and starts dancing involuntarily.

Ben and Leslie FOREVAH!

But now, as I arrive at the Final Season, I can't help but feel quite sad that there are a finite number of episodes left.

I think I shall embark on 30 Rock after this. I didn't watch it when it came out; I'm not sure why...and then I was in the throes of motherhood and didn't watch much TV for a bit there.

On a similar note, I'll just put on here ze list of shows for watching/rewatching before I forget....

Community,

The Office, 

Arrested Development,

Freaks and Geeks,

Seinfeld,

The Big Bang Theory 

3rd Rock from the Sun, 

Outsourced,

Futurama

(Maybe) the IT Crowd...for now.

It's still too soon to rewatch The Mindy Project ... I'll leave that on the TBD list. When I think of more to put on the list, I shall do some editing magic.

MEANWHILE, I've already introduced Pushing Daisies to The Little Boy and we watch it together. 

He loves it and I love that he loves it!

Hurray for quirky sweet funny sitcoms.

Care Package from the Loveliest of Brothers.

Thank you, Carter, for always thinking of me and mine, and sending us goodies galore!! If it wasn't for your care packages, we wouldn't have ever tried so many things!

Get your act together, Walmart.

Old House Plans

I was feeling all nostalgic, and decided to draw out the plan of the house I was born into,  and grew up in, up till we moved when I was 15. 

19 Hup Choon Kang, Jalan Kluang, Batu Pahat, Johor.

It was a rented house, with an upstairs and downstairs, part wooden and part concrete.  Up till the time I was about 13, all 4 kids slept in the same room as my parents.  We all slept on mattresses on the floor, ( no space for beds, I suppose ), and some of the mattresses would be rolled up in the morning after we got up. There were only 2 bedrooms upstairs and my grandparents and an unmarried aunt took up the other.  When I turned 13 and my older sister turned 15, a small area was sectioned off upstairs to become our bedroom with bunk beds put in. 

It seems somewhat surreal to me that these memories will be gone when my older sister and I are gone, because the two younger ones have been possibly too young to remember this house much.

A Selfie

Just because I know that the day will come when I regret having been so self conscious with such low ( outward appearance ) self esteem that I never took more pics of myself.
