family – Mole on my Foot

Out and About

I hardly go out because of Covid. I mean I wasn’t really much for going out, save for the husband and work and business. But now, it has dwindled to probably 5-10%. Recently, the hubby would fetch me in the afternoons to grab a bite to eat (takeaway, of course) and ride around in hisContinue reading “Out and About”

Selective Socialization

For this year, I have limited my circle to 3 groups: Family, gym friends and church friends. I no longer socialize outside of these groups, save for special and no-escape situations. It wasn’t a conscious thing but I eventually began to veer away from socializing and often just stayed home. I don’t have coffee datesContinue reading “Selective Socialization”

Neighbors

In my parents’ house, we have neighbors whom I haven’t seen since they moved in. You see, we live in an area that used to be for family only. Our house is in between my paternal grandmother’s house and her sister. The lot our abode stands in was owned by another of my grandma’s sisterContinue reading “Neighbors”

Happiness

Baby boy – I know my son is growing up and will soon be a teenager but for me, he will always be my baby. Hubby- I’m sorry honey. Please don’t tell him that he is second on my list! Family- My immediate family will always be in my top 3. (Unlike my son whoContinue reading “Happiness”

Positive?!%$&*

This month didn’t start out good for us. The hubby got sick and then I got sick. It wasn’t all that bad, just cough, colds and fever. I chalked it up to a regular flu. However a few days after the fever, I realized that I lost my sense of smell and taste. I wasContinue reading “Positive?!%$&*”

One Year

Last January 2020, my mother was officially diagnosed with Stage 3 Cancer. She had to undergo six chemotherapy cycles and one month of radiation therapy. My brotherContinue reading “One Year”

Cooking Lessons

Losing weight is difficult under quarantine. For one, I am able to eat whatever I crave for. I am choosy person when it comes to food. I crave for food based on my period or my mood. Haha! So if my period is on it’s way, I find the need to eat salty food andContinue reading “Cooking Lessons”

Wedding Bells

The fiancee and I agreed to get married as early as last year. He thought 2020 was an auspicious year and we chose a date that was memorable. Looking through the calendar, we decided on June 20, 2020 as it fell on a Saturday and February 20, 2020 felt too soon after Christmas. We alwaysContinue reading “Wedding Bells”

Upside Down

In the Philippines, the Corona Virus disease had a slow start. Considering the number of Chinese tourists who come to the country on a daily basis, this was actually surprising. But when it blew up last Month, it surely put the country in a twist. Today is April 22 and by my count, I haven’tContinue reading “Upside Down”

Money or Happiness?

Often I would wish I was rich that I had money to allow to travel anytime, not have to work and just stay at home. But honestly, that is just the lazy part of me. My life may not be as perfect as I want it to be but I know so many people wouldContinue reading “Money or Happiness?”
