Being Able To Just Go And Talk

There are advantages and disadvantages of having Filipina neighbors. The only disadvantage I see having one or two is that if you don't like the person, you wished she'd move to other place because you are not feeling too comfortable with the idea she can see you or passing by your house everyday. You feel like there are eyes spying on you. The great advantages of it is that, you feel at ease knowing that you have someone to turn to when you need moral support when things get tough or you'll have someone in ordinary days jut let things out that's been bugging you inside.


One of my neighbors I am so comfortable talking just anything under the sun. I guess because we share the same interests and we do have things in common that make us get along very well. From time to time I just sneak out the house towing my girls along with me and just go to their house. It makes me feel I am not so alone in this world, mura'g Pinas ra kaayo kay adto sa ilang balay manulong ug tabi... good thing the husband doesn't mind me gone of the house for an hour or two even if I go home late at night, he just doesn't mind it.

What Women Want

Undeniably women love fashionable, chic and stylish clothing. I, for one loves shopping for cute dresses and nice tops both online and in a local store. We just want to look good from within, our spouses, friends and so we tend to buy which we think look good for us.


I do have several clothing sites bookmarked in my toolbar to visit when I have nothing else to do. Most of which is womens fashion clothing. Doing this way makes it easy for me to open my favorite sites again and have a look for their sale. Other sites I subscribed to just send me notifications in my mail about their latest and new arrivals, clearance and new markdowns.

I Can't Stop Buying Stuff For My Daughters

Whether there is an occasion or not, if I go to the store or at the mall I can't help but by something for my girls my eldest daughter especially to let her know mommy loves her. She thinks I am nice if I give her anything that she likes. You know kids are easy to please, give her very little but nice toys they will surely appreciate it. It's Mother's Day that we are going to celebrate 3 weeks from now yet here I am browsing for gifts for your daughters on the internet. Instead of me being given something by my daughter why in the world it is me planning of giving something to my first born? Well, I will leave it like that because she is still young and little. Someday, when she has a job she'll probably return all the favor that I did to her when she was young.

He Would Have Been 54

It was my father's birthday yesterday Philippine time. He would have been 54. Since it is still April 14 here in the United States, it is still his birthday today and I wanna say ( if ever his spirit is reading this)  HAPPY BIRTHDAY PAPA! I MISSED YOU DEARLY! I hope you are happy where you are and in peace with the Lord now but hey let me tell you this, not a single day that passes by I am not thinking about you. I regret for not telling you I LOVE YOU when you were still with us!

This is my father's first birthday without him and I guess his coming birthdays will only get bitter as we celebrate it for he is no longer with us and we can never see him anymore unless of course death will come for us! God forbid, hope not now or soon because I still have kids to care for and raise.

It Was My First Time Leaving My First Born Behind

I left my first born today for the first time. I went to attend a small Filipino gathering today in Mansfield. Before I left, I had to make up a white lie to her just so she doesn't cry. I said I am taking the baby to the doctor to be poked with needles and I don't want her coming with me so she doesn't see the baby crying in pain. Poor child, so innocent she didn't know I was actually going to the party!


I am somewhat guilty when we arrived at the house of the Filipino who hosted the party because her house was so close to the park as in it was just a few steps away from her house. If you stand right outside her front door, you could see the playground so close by. I loved the community playground because it has a nice
playground swingsets, slides and the whole playground is covered with green thingy from above to keep the kids protected from the sun when playing.

What Is A Normal Sleeping Arrangement?

Two nights we have been sleeping at Jadyn's bedroom because I want to give my betterhalf his much needed sleep. Thursday night he complained about not being able to sleep very well and it is making him old very fast. He is a light sleeper and every single noise or sound I make from getting up to attend the baby at night time wakes him up.


So one has to make the sacrifice and that would be me. Alright, I get him and I willingly give the whole bedroom and the whole bed to him so that he can get all the sleep he needs. When we slept at the other bedroom for the first night he asked me why do I have to do that? He wanted me to sleep in our bedroom because he wants us to be NORMAL? Heck!


We are normal at least that is how I feel. I just want to do him a big favor and even if this is going to be our "NORMAL" sleeping arrangement (me and baby sleep in other bedroom) forever, I would do that! I know full well how important it is to get a really good night sleep every night. I don't worry myself not getting some sleep at night because I don't work and I can take a nap anytime I want or if the baby allows me to.
