Today . . .

• marks two years since I lost my grandmother. I think of her everyday, still.. and am grateful for that. I really, do not wanna forget. I'm not sad anymore, I just wanna remember.
• Today I'm missing Phuket. That place has really captured my heart. I get baked to perfection everytime even with sunscreen - the sun is really something.
• Today my husband is gonna attempt running 100k. Remember this layout?

• Yup, today is the day. He's nuts, and I love him. My only request, come back safe. I don't even care if he completes the race, I just want him back in one piece.
• We are gonna be there for him, all the way. I have my starbucks card reloaded, ready for action - seeing that he is gonna be flagged off at 6pm and will be running all night long, possibly into the next morning. LOL. Told ya, he's nuts.
• 100km = 62.137 mi.

• A simple card for you, made with leftovers from Countdown. Sold out now, but watch this space. New kits are coming out soon.

Project 365

157/365

IKEA. I love that hanging flowery lamp, but all I can think of when I look at them is.. how the hell am I gonna clean that beast? Ha!

158/365

Checkin' out books from the library. Actually, we just need to get out of the house, since they're about to murder each other out of boredom. LOL. Kidding. I love libraries and always drag them along. I hope my love for reading rubs off on them.

159/365

My goal each day. Scatter joy. Somedays I simply can't achieve that and scatter some cranky tantrum fairy dust instead. Bad Sasha.

160/365

Neha's new passport. We had to bring the passport back to the Immigration office for some adjustment and got the keychain there.

161/365

Hanging deco at our hotel. Love that orange!

162/365

Seafood Phad Thai. Not in picture is this banana and coconut milk desert. Super good and probably the main reason of my weight gain. LOL.

163/365

Laguna Phuket International Marathon. Can you see the start time? 4.30am. Ungodly, especially considering there is no starbucks nearby. LOL.

164/365

Khai Island, Phuket. One of my favorite-est place on earth.

165/365

Swimming pool. There is just something about swimming pool at night. Eerie for me. *shivers*

166/365

And we're flying back. I don't like flying, I like 'arriving'.

• You can probably tell my 365 photos are not up to date. I'll be back with more soon, I hope. Haven't had a chance to upload them to my Flickr. :)
• Wish us luck for today, please.

Around here . . .

• nothing much is happening. We're enjoying being lazy, but feeling very busy at the same time. How is that possible?
• I think I'm overwhelmed. I want to do a lot of things, been pinning like there is no tomorrow and my 'to-try' list is now 5.25 miles long. *sigh* Do you feel that way sometime?

Project 365

146/365

One of my ongoing project. I really wanna have them hanging on my walls, scattered around my house. Good reminders to have. And I really wanna use my stash of linen, pretty stuff should not reside inside the drawers.

147/365

My three daughters. LOL. Kidding. The one in the middle is Neha's best friend. They have been together since first grade and I love that girl like my own. I love the fact that they look out for each other, in school and online. We took the kids out for the whole day and it was pretty dang tiring, but seeing how much they enjoyed themselves = priceless.

148/365

Right before my 10k flag off. Right before the gun went off and I thought to myself - What the hell am I thinking??!! Ha!

149/365

Our first Starbucks since April 4th. An achievement for me, because, he.. well, he's not really into coffee. :)

150/365

Greek yogurt and crushed granola bar. Super good. That book? I stopped reading and returned it back to the library because well, I can't focus. I keep expecting vampires and werewolves and telepaths - so I went back to my Sookie Stackhouse. LOL.

151/365

A card I made for a friend. Way overdue. . (sorry, friend) :) Filmstrip stamp from Countdown add on. That gorgeous butterfly from an old set of Karen Russel for Fontwerks.

152/365

Lunch at Little India with FIL. I have other photos from Little India to show - of the dried chillies and spices, but I chose this one because, to be frank, it was harder to ask for photos from him than the chillies. Ha!.. Ha!

153/365

Coconut Blossom with oozing palm sugar. Neha, especially.. loves them.

154/365

Spent the whole day cutting the little squares. My back was screaming for help by the time I'm done. I have no idea when am I gonna sew them together to make the quilt top, no freakin' idea. . . let's just let my back forget the pain from cutting them first.

155/365

The advantage of having a minimart in your building. Nidhi saw the advertisement and went - oh my.. i feel like eating that ice-cream, mommy. LOL. She got it 10 minutes later. Ate half of it and announced that it was too sweet for her and I had to have the unfortunate task of finishing it. Yeah right... no one forced me. LOL!

156/365

Creamy curried chicken wrap. Sunday breakfast/lunch. Fast to cook, good to eat. My kind of cooking. :)
