Got a pleasant lovely early surprise for my b’day/Christmas gift (b’day isn’t due till the 2nd week of Dec) from hubby two nights ago. It is a Samsung widescreen 20″ LCD monitor. I love it. Not only is it less strain to my eyes but it provides a lot of working space especially when I [...]

I admire girls with long legs as they could wear sexy boots that look really good on them. I love knee length boots but to my dismay, I could not wear any. Thanks to my short and stubby legs. Knee length boots become thigh length boots for me. Worse still, I could not zip them [...]
