It was 10 degrees below zero when I woke up this morning. Pa-in-law met me at the doorway of our bedroom when I got out to tell me that the snow outside have been too thick. When I checked it through the window, our van, parked outside of the carport has been covered with snow. Yes, I found it too beautiful and neat to look at but when I learned what the temperature was, I dreaded for 9:30am to arrive because we will be going to the health department for Triz’s shots. But because it was an appointment, I couldn’t do anything about it but go.

I am glad Triz coopera

ted well when I had her bundled up even though she has just woke up. I was finally able to let her use her pink boots which I’ve been wanting her to wear but she just won’t. She looked so cute in her pink outfits, head to foot, and everybody could notice her when we arrived at the health department. We haven’t eaten breakfast yet because waking up at 9am is still early for her and me as we’re used to 9:01am and beyond. So we were able to conquer the very thick snow outside and it was so windy and still snowing and really really cold but we dealt with it.

Triz was pretty impressive, too with the couple shots she got. She never cried at all, though it surely hurt, but all she ever expressed was just “awwwww! sakiiiiit!” [Ouch, it hurts!!!]. I was so proud of her, and the nurse gave her five Dora stickers instead of only one [w/c Triz loved! haha] because she was also very impressed with how her patient did. She got flu and HepaA shots in each of her legs, and I am sure she has some sores right now but she’s very brave to show us she’s fine. I hope she won’t get fever because of the shots. We then proceeded to Cub Foods store to get some goodies and dadi treated us to our fave Hot Wok Chinese Resto for our late breakfast and very early lunch! Yum!!

See how she smiled? Mura’g wala lay duha ka dagum natusok ba! lol

It is still snowing until now and oh how I would have love to stay outside to let her play but the negative temperature is unbearable. Swithart shoveled the driveway earlier and he showed me how light the snows are, very powdery, and would be perfect to play with but I wasn’t tempted really. I am glad that Triz has new Wiggles DVDs borrowed from the library, it helps me keep her inside and not demand to go out. lol For now, I gotta remind you that if you are in the Midwest area of the country, keep warm today and in the coming days. The forecast tells us here that the below zero temperature is going to last till in the coming days. Burrrrr…..
