McDo Monday

My week day routine starts at four in the morning to cook for my son's breakfast. Then I'll go back to bed and try to sleep again for a couple of hours. 

This morning is quite different. I woke up at 9am and to this...

Accident

After visiting my Mom and sis from a nearby village, I drove to the nearest SM Hypermart for a quick grocery trip today. 

Stay classy

Now that we think everything is Instagrammable or FB worthy...

dental and traffic issues

For the past two weeks I've been driving to and from my brother-in-law's clinic. He's been our dentist for nearly a decade now. If you're a regular reader, you'll know what my 'tooth issues' that I've been dealing with. Again, I'm grateful that we have him in our family. We could have our dental visits from someone just a walking distance from our home, but we still rely on him as our dentist. He's that good.

Colorfy App

Adult coloring books are the rage now. This is successful because maybe a lot of adults are really stressed. Lalo na dito sa Pilipinas. Paglabas mo pa lang ng gate mo ma-stress ka na. Traffic, lack of road discipline and simple garbage problem bubulaga sa iyo. I salute kung sino man ang nakaisip ng Adult coloring books. It is really a great way of de-stressing.

Figaro coffee date and Mission Impossible: Rogue Nation

Aug. 7, 2015

It's been a week from it's first showing date. I didn't want to miss it so I asked my husband if we could catch it.

After we bought the tickets, we chose to stay at Figaro while waiting for the actual screening. 

No Pluviose

While my boys are out working, I'm home alone with kulog, kidlat at ulan while brunching...

Financial peace

July 31, 2015

where my money would go...

My future self will thank me today. I happily got to tick off one financial goal from my 2015 to do list. Actually, it's been part of my 2012, 2013, and 2014 list. But I didn't have the courage yet to do so. 

San Fernando, Pampanga roadtrip

Today, my husband and I decided to take a different driving route. We wanted to visit again San Fernando, Pampanga just to check out the sports depot that we frequent there whenever we visit the Northern part of Manila. We are obviously tired of city driving and the crowd in the malls. We want a different kind of date. We left at about 3pm.

Thunderstorm looming in the horizon just after the tollgate in Mindanao Avenue. This didn't dampen our spirits. Tuloy pa rin ang lakwatsa.

For almost a month now, my husband and I are currently hooked with Eat Bulaga's(local noon time show) phenomenal loveteam Alden Richards and Yaya Dub. Alden Richards is a local boy next door actor and Yaya Dub is Maine Mendoza, known as the Dubsmash Queen of the Philippines. Their team up was accidental and they haven't seen each other yet in person.

How not to spend much for an event

For girls/women only

Sometimes the worry in showing up in a party or an event are the preparations that goes with it, lalo na for an anti-social like me. Nakakatamad. Plus, the thought of spending is impractical most of the time since it's just for a few hours of socializing and you have to spend for everything from head to toe. At my previous alumni homecoming, I successfully pulled it through.

Here are some of my budget moves:

motherhood

I love this. It ain't easy, but nothing beats the feeling of nurturing a person in your best ability. I was given four chances but only one survived.

It isn't a bed of roses, but still, I love being a Mom. Best role ever.
