Princess Gets a Puppy Cut

I brought Princess for a grooming session at Animal House SM Bicutan this morning. I didn't want to have her hair cut but Nanay insisted.

So Princess had a puppy cut.

She now looks young again.

Here's groomer Rene doing the final touches on Princess:

Headlamp

Too excited for tomorrow that after my last dog bite vaccine at RITM this morning, I searched Festival Mall and Star Mall Alabang for a bladder and a headlamp.

Bladder because I thought it's more convenient to put inside the rucksack with the hose on my shoulder for easy access, than to carry water bottles on the mesh pockets.

Headlamp because it's a night trek.

Sadly, I wasn't able to find any of the two, in either malls.

When I got back home, Nanay told me to call Ace Hardware and ask for those.

Luckily, Ace Hardware in SM Bicutan had an Energizer mini-headlamp. It runs on 2 x CR2032 batteries so I bought a pair, not knowing that there was an included battery in the package.

Okay lang, I'll save it for future use, or bring it along for back-up just in case.

I don't have a bladder yet. A friend said I should go to Conquer at Robinson's Pioneer. It's so far.

A Yellow P1 and a Radio

Since my Nokia 2220 was lost, I thought I could live without a phone. But when you're used to having a phone and then you get retained in the emergency room for hours, then you wait in line for almost half a day at the PLDT business office, and finally you pay your gastro a visit because you thought there's something so wrong with you and you don't have a phone you can't text or call anyone for emotional support, your world tumbles upside down.

So I bought another Cherry Mobile P1 at Wellcom. The one I dropped at Mt. Romelo was blue. So I thought I wouldn’t be getting blue anymore. I was eyeing the lavender on display but it had scratches and that’s the last lavender they had. They also had one remaining orange but it wouldn’t turn on. So that left me with no choice but to get the yellow one, and I wonder why they had lots of yellows in stock. Either it’s in demand they overstocked, or no one wants it they still had lots in stock.

But my real purpose in going to the mall was to buy a transistor radio because we don’t have any and we fear of brownouts the coming typhoon would bring. It’s hard to get stuck in the house without any knowledge of what’s happening outside.

Cute, no? Costs 450 pesos at SM Appliance Center. It requires 3 Size D batteries so I bought 6 pcs.

I knew we weren’t the only ones afraid of getting stuck at home with the brownout and no radio. An old lady was also buying one while we were at the store.

PS
The Cherry Mobile P1 stopped responding twice already. Last night, it turned on after I removed and re-attached the battery several times. But today, it just won’t turn on anymore. I had Angel bring the unit to Wellcom for replacement.

Need Comfort

I’m mostly a jeans person. I don’t really wear shorts when I go out. But since I plan to roam around the provinces near Manila a bit more this year, I thought about buying a pair of shorts for my trips.

Honestly, I envied Gerald when we went to Pagbilao cuz he looked so comfy in his shorts.

And I want to be more comfortable next time.

Meet my new pair of Penshoppe shorts:

Bought it yesterday. After the vet and the dentist, Princess, Angel, and I headed to the mall. And I forced Angel to treat me to a KFC lunch. LoL!

She also bought a pair of shoelaces at American Boulevard where I saw this notebook:

And yea, I also forced her to pay for it. Heh!
