today is ate dadang's bday..HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO YOU, HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO YOU, HAPPY HAPPY HAPPY HAPPY..HAPPY NA BIRTHDAY PA..!!! YAHHOOOOO...!!!

and it's also my 2nd day at work..

13, 14, & 15th of October..

oohah..missed writing for 3 days, why? becoz..13th i started the liquid diet required of me for my colonoscopy and started the trilyte 6pm all through out that evening, omg i've got to drink the freakin thing 4 oz every 15 minutes and practically go to the bathroom every after huhuhu. .but early in the day i was still able to go to the WALKWAY OVER THE HUDSON which was a historic railroad turned into a walkway, a state park, it's 200 and some feet above the Hudson River, where you can bike ride, jog, run, walk, skate. an awesome view of the mountain with the fall foliage on it's peak as a bonus. wish my kids, my siblings and my frendhips in SJOM could see all of these.

14th at 6:30 early in the morning, drove to the Ambulatory Service for the procedure, whoa, one of the things i hate in my life are needles..and believe u me that freakin' nurse gave me the fright of the day when she inserted the IV, boy..it hurts! then wheeled to the OR (?) and sedate me with PROPOFOL now MICHAEL and I are related in a way hahaha..that was the last thing i remembered, the nurse telling me she's gonna administer propofol through the IV. the next thing i knew is when i woke up and was told that everything is done hahaha..as if i just went to a good sleep, just like that, didn't feel anything.

15th, my first day of work ooh lala..far far different from what i used to, but it's work anyway so got to go for it..but this is when my right back side bothered me sooooo much..feels like cramping, whenever the pain strikes it freezes me and had to almost stop breathing bec it really aches..can't even shed a tear when it does, any movement i make makes it worse hmm..don't know the reason, have to see my primary doctor again for this..(hmm..OLD AGE!!) but damn..it really is soooo painful even breathing makes it more painful.

AND IT'S 15th of OCTOBER..u won't believe it..IT SNOWED!!!! grabe na to..seems mother nature is confused herself, it's not winter yet! but it really snowed and the temperature is down to low 30's ano ba yan..!! can't wait for December to start the snow falling??????

new york cheesecake..

eating new york cheesecake while working on my blogspot, and listening to rihanna at the same time. i didn't do much today, just drove to and from mt. kisco w/c is like 47 mi. from home..that makes it a little less than a 100 mi back and forth..the fall foliage on the way never fails to amaze me with all the bright colors: gold, orange, yellow, brown, burgundy, green..it's so beautiful - miles and miles of bright colors..

it's started to get chilly, you can't go out without wearing warm clothes anymore..and it's giving me a headache, my ears feel like they're somewhere other than on either side of my head..hahaha..

also today is the last day i can eat solid foods, tomorrow starts my liquid diet in preparation for the colonoscopy on wednesday. if i'm in the Philippines i won't undergo any of these that i'm subjected to here in the states..in the Philippines u just die kasi ang mahal kaya mgpagamot hahaha..

by the way, early this afternoon i got a call from the personnel manager that i am to start work on the 15th whoa..!! mackee's got a job, well..it's far far different from teaching, and so is the sweldo that's for sure but it's just fine with me..i just don't care about teaching here in the states..really! my teaching heart i left in San Jose, LOL..

FLEA MARKET../GIANTS/YANKEES

it was beautiful out today..went to a flea market at Beekman Road, in my entire life i've never seen such a huge flea market as this, i was told they hold this annually and usually during Columbus Day weekend..the area spans like forever..huge! lot of stuffs are for sale. got a set of rosary necklace and bracelet, a back rest for the car seat dahil sumasakit kaya ang likod ko sa upuan kakainis (well, old age does that) a small battery powered toy car for river,btw he's gonna be 3 yrs this Oct 27 , a 3 for $10 flaglets one for halloween, one for thanksgiving and one for christmas..i also bought 2 boxes of christmas cards i'm hoping to send out to friendships in the Philippines.

then from the flea market drove to Macy's and got a time piece (Anne Klein of New York) whahaha..it really is a good one.

after all these shopping i did in the morning i watched (football) NY GIANTS play against Oakland RAIDERS, as usual GIANTS crushed the opponent..and in the evening watched (baseball) NY YANKEES play against MINNESOTA TWINS..which up to this moment is still on with the YANKEES leading 2 to 1 in the 9th inning. If the TWINS lost this game..they're done!! Oh i need to make mention that this is the American League Division Series,best of 5, between YANKEES and TWINS. YANKEES is already in front with 2-0 situation over the TWINs.

WHOA..!! YANKEES did it..power hitting, power pitching..they swept TWINS..!! Now, it's gonna be ANAHEIM ANGELS next.
