...HAS GOTTEN SEXIER! ;)

Okay, I am fully aware that I've been gone for quite a while, and before a lot of eyebrows raise, please allow me to bask in saying that this blog is now ranked PR3! Yay!!! *I seriously hope not to jinx it with this post*

Can you believe that?? After being in hiatus for over three months, Google was very much gracious to not only resurrect my page rank but even raise it to the next level. I saw how from PR2 it went down to PR0 which was obviously not surprising given that I wasn't blogging, but miraculously with whatever formula Google uses, it's now PR3! Happiness!

So, in other news....

There's actually another reason why I believe I've gotten sexier (ehem!) Notwithstanding the fact that I've lost weight and now only weigh 100 pounds, the real reason why I think I've gotten sexier is because...

I'M INFANTICIPATING!

Yap, yap. Ten weeks and counting. Man, this is starting to feel like the longest 9 months of my life... but nope, I'm not going to let myself get carried away and blabber here on my comeback post all my first trimester episodes. I'll save those for future posts. LOL.

Having said those, I guess you can all agree with me that I've gotten sexier... and yes, I'm back blogging. Hehe!

PS: Hawaii vacation and other more escapade and adventures coming up soon! Stay tuned ;)

A NEW BLOG PLUS MEME

Hi guys!   Guess what?  I created a new blog.  Yay!!!

<a border="0" href="http://extraroomforhappiness.blogspot.com/" target="_blank"><img src="http://i71.photobucket.com/albums/i124/kissme_519/happinessismemebadgecopy-1.jpg"/></a>

And that's why I haven't been able to visit your blogs for the past couple of days *oopps, sorry*.  I was busy fixing up my new blog because I wanted to get it up and running this weekend, and guess what again?  I'm ready to go live. Hooray!!! Makes me feel glad because now that my new blog is ready, I can get back to all of you, my awesome blogging buddies, who left me here some comments, messages, and love ♥  Thank you, all!

Anyweiz, my new blog is mainly dedicated for meme.  Yes, I finally opened a meme - HAPPINESS IS... MEME.   Woohoo!  Basically, this meme - as the name implies - is for sharing "happy" posts.  You most likely have come across a similar meme already, but hey, who says we can't have an extra room for happiness? :)

Having said that, I invite everyone to be a happy camper and join me in this meme which will launch on Friday, June 06, 2010 EST.

You can read the whole shebang here:

HAPPINESS IS... MEME DRILL

HAPPINESS IS... #1

Feel free to grab the badge above.  Hope to see y'all there ☻

MORE THAN SEXY IS NOW PR2!

...and I almost did a cartwheel when I found that out (only I didn't know how to)!

Thanks to all my blogging buddies who regularly visit here and for keeping the traffic alive and your comments coming. You, guys, are simply great! I really appreciate you all taking time to hop on my blog during my absence.

As you know, I am still on vacation, and yes, I am loving every single moment of it! I'm eager and tempted to spill the details and share photos right now but I will have to hold off until i get some ample blogging time again ;) Also, I'm using my Iphone latched onto the hotel's wi-fi, and the battery will soon die on me. LOL.

Anyway, I just wanted to quickly give an update, and let you know as well that I haven't vanished and that I shall return pretty soon ;) Once again, thanks for remembering to drop by here! Promise, I'll visit you all back when I get a chance to sit in front of my laptop and concentrate with blogging ;) Till then, please keep on supporting more than seXy, my little corner in this vast blogosphere! Take care and talk to all of you soon :) Hugs!

I'M LEAVING SOON FOR THE PHILIPPINES !!!

...and hence, I won't be able to visit your blogs, my dear blogging buddies, as often as I have been doing in the past recent weeks.  But worry not, I'm only going to be away for a month.  The first two weeks of vacation will be my busiest but the ensuing two weeks, I'll be working from home, so the chances of me being back in the blogosphere spreading silliness are high - oh well, depending on how reliable the Internet connection  we have in the Philippines :)  Once I come back to the States in December - that is if I don't change my mind and decide to extend my vacation - expect me to be raiding your blogs, bouncing off and on your comment walls, and flooding your shout boxes and chat boxes!

Thank you for all the "bon voyage" and "happy trip" greetings!  Please do keep in touch.  Don't leave my blog deserted, lonely, and unwanted :'(  Her author is just going to savor a long overdue grand vacation she deserves, so please continue to visit More Than Sexy, and continue to leave some love in the form of comments, messages, awards, credits, prizes, etc.  Any love marks you leave will be truly appreciated and will be reciprocated once I return to full swing blogging ♥

I will miss my regular "ka-comment-uhan" here:

1. Algene
2. Krizza
3. Lainy
4. Marie
5. Rovie
6. Reese

...and of course, my regular "ka-pindut-an," (alam nyo na!):

1. Christian
2. Enteng
3. Ian
4. Jake
5. Lyn
6. Midnight Driver 
7. Mumay
8. Mau
9. Mama G

...and all those blogs I follow, I've exchanged links with, and regularly hop to...

...and remember, if you're looking for a weekly meme to join, you know where to find one... right at the bottom of my blog is a whole section of meme badges!  If ever and whenever you run out of idea to blog about, memes are always there to run to :D

I'm planning to write another post before I step on the plane tomorrow but just in case I won't be able to, let me leave you today with this line, which I'm sure you'd figure out which song I got it from:

♪♫ "Twenty minutes before take off, Sitting here at the airport lounge..." ♪♫

(Akala nyo "Leaving on a Jetplane" kakantahin ko, no? Hehe!)

Ciao for now, guys!  Blog on...  at abangan ang pagbabalik ni Karenina ;)

I'M KINDA BUSY (KA-KINDA BUSY)

I have been very busy lately.  One of my coworkers recently quit, and so my job since has been keeping my hands full during the day.  My after work routine includes going to the gym with my husband and spending a good hour-and-a-half to burn some calories and stay fit - we try to work out at least four times a week.  Our weekends are usually spent for errands, house chores, shopping, church, going out, visiting friends, etc., and at times, guess what, working (bummer!)

Vince and I spent the past two consecutive weekends in Canada visiting our family.  Normally, it's an eight-hour drive from Lebanon, PA to Toronto, ON, but the heavy rains and flooding in our area this past week added another hour or so to our travel time - not to mention that we took an hour of power nap at a parking lot somewhere north of the border.  Zzzzzz...

Anyway, busy as I am, I still try to squeeze blogging in between tasks.  So before I catch up on blogging, let me first say my thanks to all those who took time to visit my blog, read my posts, leave comments, and holler at my shoutbox.  I do appreciate that and I'll make sure to return the favor by visiting you back as much as my schedule allows me.  See you guys around and blog on!

GOT ANOTHER AWARD

Looks like I got another blogosphere love here, and this time, my "muchas gracias" and "salamat" go to my ex-co-worker and now blogger buddy, Crystal, for presenting me the Liebster Award.  Boo yeah!!! *cartwheels and splits*

Crystal is the awesome author behind Little Bundle of Contradictions.  I urge you to check out her blog, and I swear, not only you'll be awed by her writing skills, but you'll get helpful tips and a lot of inspiration from an aspiring and very promising writer.  Every Tuesday, she runs a regular "program" in her blog entitled, The Sisterhood of the Dawn.  If you're into modern day vampires, witches and warlocks, you might want to grab a popcorn and follow this spine tingling series written by none other else but Crystal.

Going back to the Liebster Award...  Apparently, Liebster means "favourite" in German.  Recipients of this award are entrusted to link back to the one who has kindly granted it (in this case, me!), as well as the task to pass it to five bloggers who have less than 200 followers so as to spread the word.

And now, without further ado, allow me to present this award to my fellow blogger buddies who deserve as much exposure as any blogger out there:

Ledz - DNA Success

PS - iMYself @somewhere else

Rovie - My Journey  

Reese - My Random Thoughts 

Jeni - The Girl Next Door

It's on your shoulders now, my dearies, to make or break this chain, which *ahem* by the way reminds me that I have yet to pass around the Versatile Blogger Award *guilty as charged!*- okay, I'm working on it now ;) Ciao!

**************************************************************** 

Okay, so after several hours, I'm back again and updating this post to finally present the Versatile Blogger Award *claps, claps*  This has long been overdue, so let's cut the chase and get this over with :D

 

I now pass on this award to my fellow bloggers whose blogs display impressive versatility ;)

Krizza - Life's Tips and Tricks

Edmarie - Marie's Thoughts  

Silvergirl - Live for Life

Chano - Sayantifico

Crystal - Little Bundle of Contradictions 

There you go !  I entrust you, my dearies, to link back to me when you pass this cool award to any blogger whom you wish to acknowledge and shower a little appreciation with.  I hope that through this award you spread around some blogosphere love :)

THE VERSATILE BLOGGER

Look what I got from a fellow blogger :) Yehey !!!

I would like to thank Rovie for granting me "The Versatile Blogger" award.  Although I started this blog way back in 2008, I kept it private for a long time, until a few months ago when I decided to go public.  Wait, that sounds so showbizzzz.  But I know you know what I meant ;)

Anyway, I just want to let Rovie know that I appreciate her for this acknowledgment, and I will surely pass this along to fellow versatile bloggers :)

Below are the links to Rovie's blogs.  Feel free to network with her:

ANYTHING ABOUT BELLA
THE JOURNEY
THE FATHER AND SON CHRONICLES
FOOD AND FOOD TRIPS
