Leahs Cafe

If you are driving an old junk like we do, you probably know of at least one place that sells recycled auto parts like the midwest auto recycling. When our car needs parts replacement, we often check out this auto recycling places. If we could not find any used parts, then only we would buy new replacements from the guys at the workshop or the car accessories stores.

Most of the time, we are able to find recycled parts with really good price and most of them this parts come with warranties. If you are afraid of getting problematic parts, you  or you can get someone to test drive, visually inspect the parts!

Have you ever bought a watch or clock as a gift ? Some Chinese people may still see it as a taboo in this modern time as gifting clocks or watches rhymed with “paying last respect to a deceased person”. :-)We have wanted to get a watch for my uncle on his birthday because we knew his watch died on him recently. But we were afraid he would mind.

Of course we cannot afford anything expensive, was thinking of getting him a functional watch that he can wear everyday. We are not really going to buy breitling watches or a name brand like patek philippe for him. This patek phillipe watches certainly are nice, but they do not come cheap though! The other day I saw one Patek Philippe – Gondolo 5030 J 18K Yellow Gold watch selling on Ebay for $12k !

Do you know of anyone who owns an expensive watch like this? Personally, I don’t. Even ourwealthy friend who lives in a big mansion and retired at 40+ years old wears a watch that costs a few thousands ONLY. :-)

I shouldn’t have done this, but bad habit died hard. I often read till I fell asleep and leave the glasses beside me. I did that when I was taking a nap on the carpet yesterday.

About 10-15 minutes after I fell asleep, the phone rang and I got up to get the phone in a daze. Guess what? I stepped right into the glasses !!

The frame is a bit bend and the string that held the lower part of the frame is broken now. I hope it can be easily fixed and the string is replacable. This glasses cost me an arm, man. It’s expensive affair to be short sighted, all this money spent on contact lenses and glasses is easily more than what a lasik procedure cost. :-)
