Transit Bus Ride

Our kids always wanted to experience riding the transit bus here in Weirton. We finally decided to ride it last Saturday.  While waiting for the bus, we took some  photos.
The fare  for each adult is $2 and the kids are free.


Most of the passengers of the  transit bus are the old folks who live in  an apartment downtown.  
We  finished the entire route of the bus so we get to see some parts of the town  that we seldom drive into.  The bus driver was very nice to let us finish the whole laps of his route.
It was a good experience for us, it was  my kids and my first time riding a  public vehicle here in the area.

Edge Trimmer

My father-in-law has this manual yard edge trimmer.  My husband  showed the Burritos how to use it  when we visited Dad a couple of days ago.
Children's curiosity is a great way to introduce them to  things like this one.
I like this kind of trimmer because  you do not need to charge it or  put string  in it to cut grass.  The next day after my husband showed   our kids  how to use the trimmer, we saw Dad's neighbor using their   manual  lawn mower which I found to be very neat and practical to use. I'd love to own  manual  lawn mower and trimmer because it is  convenient and cheaper to use.  You don't need  gas  to operate them and it's not  as noisy as the electric ones.

Rainbow

There's always  a first time for everything right?  With my 7 years of living here in the States,  the very first time  I saw a rainbow was  last month when we were driving home from Kennywood.  My husband saw it in the rear view mirror so the only  way I could take a picture of it is through the back window of our car.  
"Be thou the rainbow in the storms of life. The evening beam that smiles the clouds away, and tints tomorrow with prophetic ray."
-Lord Byron-
Not a perfect shot but at least I got to capture it and I got to see  a rainbow for the first time in 7 years lol.

Relaxing Sunday

The photos below were taken last Sunday after we got out from church. We decided to take the kids to the park at Marland Heights before we visit Dad.
Ms. Burrito wasn't feeling really well that day, we figured that if she  gets  enough fresh air that she will be okay, and she did!  A relaxing Sunday  spent in nature  and family, just perfect!
Let me tell you  some Q-things  about me.  I am a quiet type, I am not good  with quarrels, I used to be quick-tempered but I think that I am getting better at it now.  
It is so nice to  spend quality time with  family especially your kids.  They grow up so fast and soon they will leave  your care and have their own  lives.  Hubby and I wants to  enjoy the  moment  that we have now with them.

Brave

We didn't go to the movie theater till recently.  Before Ms. Burrito's 7th birthday, we decided to watch the Brave movie at a local theater here in our area.
It was  my kids first time to go to  a movie house and mine as well.
Hubby and I were concerned that the little boy won't sit still but he did and we're glad!
The movie house  was old so we  removed our clothes and throw it in a washer right away because we did not want to take a chance of dragging any  bed bugs inside our home.  

Movies always ends up in good ending right?  when we go back to reality, it's the other way around.  With the  recent shooting in Colorado for the premiere showing of the the movie "Batman", I don't think we will go to the movie house again real soon.  It's very  scary.

Being brave is great but how do you do that when you do not know the person you are dealing with?  For the past week, a private and unknown number keeps calling our home phone, the phone would rung even at 2 in the morning.  When my husband answers it, he won't talk.  Well, yesterday, I answered it  and this is what the pervert caller have said.

Pervert: "Hey, what are you doing?"
Me:  (Puzzled) Who is this please?
Pervert: Do you know what this huge c@%*k can do for you this afternoon?
Me:  (Shaking this time and lost my cool)..  Get lost! (hang up)

I am terrified because I think about the safety of  my kids.  How did  this  insane caller got our phone number?   We pay  an additional fee  every month  so that our number won't show in  phone books.  Only few people knows our number, just family and close friends.

My husband called the phone company to see what  they can do and  how to catch this predator.  The phone company then gave us instruction how to block this kind of caller.  They also gave us other option on how this caller's number would appear in our  caller ID.   I am hoping for the best that we would be able to catch this perve.

After the incident, I feel like  someone is watching us, just waiting  for the opportunity to do bad thing to  us.  Oh Lord, please protect us!
