Dylan and I don't often get the chance to go off on our own so when the opportunity to go somewhere together came up, we did!
Together, Dylan and I went to SM City Sta. Mesa. It's been a while since we last visited SM Sta. Mesa although when my mom was alive, this was where we usually shopped since it was the most accessible to us by public transportation. Lately, we've been going to Mall of Asia and Cubao because there were more shopping possibilities there and I guess having a car meant that you can really drive anywhere you want to go.
Anyway, we couldn't resist taking a picture with the Christmas display at the entrance.
This was the Christmas display at the Ground Level inside the mall.
Who could resist Gingey at the Food Court?
I was actually surprised at the new Cyberzone level at the top floor and the numerous new food choices at the Food Court. The Supermarket has also been renovated and enlarged if I remember correctly. Maybe we'll keep coming back now that we know what's new at SM City Sta. Mesa.
There are days when your plan seemed to go awry but actually ending up being better than you hoped. This was one of those days. Patrick and I were just supposed to do our errands and bring the kids back some Krispy Kreme (as they asked) but we were too early for their promo so I simply went back and brought the kids with me instead, so they had their Kids' Day Out!
Today, there was a declaration of "No Classes" because of Typhoon Nona. Though Metro Manila experienced some heavy rain, it was manageable because it wasn't continuous. Mostly, it was just really dark and windy. It was kind of fortuitous for Dana and I because we needed to go to the mall to buy her exchange gift and other stuff for her class Christmas party. So off we went to SM City Sta. Mesa because it was the closest mall and if it rained really hard, it would still be easier to get home from.
Yesterday, our bidet in the bathroom broke. There was a small crack in the bottom part of the bidet, the one which connects the hose to the handle, and of course over time, it eventually grew bigger until it snapped. I tried to fix it as soon as it happened but the truth was it really had to be replaced.
