Problem Solved

After the holidays we went to the jewelry store and had my Swiss wristwatch re-sized. When it was done, we found out the hands were not moving. It was very disappointing. The lady associate said she will give us a call whenever she finds a new one of the same brand from other stores.

She called my honey Wednesday and told him there was no other watches like that in their stores anywhere. We brought my watch back to them yesterday with the idea of getting a new one in mind. The repair staff was there so my honey asked if he can fix the problem for us. The repair staff checked the watch and the battery in it. He said the battery was sitting there for a long time so it made some corrosion. He cleaned the watch inside out, replaced the battery with a new one, and had set the time. We waited for the minute hand to move after three minutes. We were thankful when it did. Well, the problem is now solved.

Quick Fiance(e) Visa Process

My honey and I will be expecting visitors tomorrow. My cousin who just arrived here in Texas a week ago is coming over at our place with her American fiance. It was a coincidence that she is marrying a guy from Texas. I am so glad to know she is here now.

The process of her Fiance(e) Visa was so quick. It only took her about six months from the filing of application until the Visa interview and approval. That is a good thing. Mine took eight months. Well, what matters is that we made it. And now we are with our beloved ones. The next step is to plan and set their wedding. After that they will file the Application for Permanent Residency or Adjustment of Status (AOS). I think the waiting period on this process will not take longer than three months. But it still depends on the documents of the applicants.

Anyway, it is late in the evening and I should relax now. Oh no, not yet! The Afritada (chicken stew with tomato sauce) that I will prepare for my cousin and her boyfriend tomorrow is still cooking. My friend Norie helped me with the other food stuff tonight. She wants to meet my cousin too. All right. I am going to check the chicken before it becomes fried. ^_^

My Goal This New Year

It is the New Year. Everybody is busy noting down their resolutions...the do's and don'ts for the year. Out of curiosity, I am just wondering if the resolutions they have made last year had taken place? Oh well, it is none of my business. I should take care of my own, right? ^_^

I have three resolutions set for myself and my blog. First, I should be more diligent this year. Second, I should start cleaning out the "clutters". These "clutters" keep on bugging me. And third, I am thinking of getting this blog a new domain and webhosting. I am working on earning extra money online. And I learned that to gain more opportunities for a website is to have its own domain name. I am somewhat hesitant because I do not know what to do. Then here I found web hosting tutorials that guide a newbie like me in terms of what domain name is appropriate and what hosting is best for my website. This way, I will not be so confused with everything related to web hosting. And I am looking forward to this goal to happen soon.
