Just a wish

I want to work and earn money while I'm at home but I don't know how. How I wish I could have lots of money without doing any effort at all. Like an instant millionaire! 

Other than lottery or any gambling games, what else should I consider without placing bets? hmmm. Well, it's just a wish. It may or may not come true, it surely depends on me. Depends- if I want to and on how I will make that wish possible in real life. 

Waking up early

I was never fond of waking up early. In fact, that's one of the things I hated most. Especially when I'm used and was still working in the office, I really didn't like it but it's necessary.  Slept late, woke up early plus work stress........ boom! dark circles under my eyes! waking up so early was also one of the factors that made me resign from work. It's funny but it's true. I only find it so interesting during out of town/early date with family and friends then.

As soon as I resigned from work, I usually woke up at around 10 to 11 in the morning.  My son always gets up late even if he's in bed as early as 9 at night. And I loved it! But not until after a year. I'm not happy anymore. I always skip some house chores, It won't fit in my daily schedule. I already tried time management but it didn't work for me,especially I have a kid  and time is very unpredictable, will always depends on his needs. 

Today, I woke up at 6:30 am, and it feels so good to see the birds, the sky and the morning weather. So whenever I have the chance to see the sun rises, I make sure that every minute of it is well-managed. Like now, I'm already finished cleaning up our house and still have time to update my journal. :)  I love it! 

My love will never change.....I promise....

I just feel like singing now. Looking at him now, sleeping beside me, I remember how our love has grown beautifully and passionately. I realized..... I'm still in love, deeply in love. This is the song when we first met and the only song of our love for each other. 


NOTHING'S GONNA CHANGE MY LOVE FOR YOU 
If I had to live my life without you near me 
The days would all be empty
The nights would seem so long
With you I see forever oh so clearly
I might have been in love before
But it never felt this strong
Our dreams are young
And we both know they'll take us
Where we want to go

Hold me now
Touch me now
I don't want to live without you

Nothing's gonna change my love for you
You ought know by now how much I love you
One thing you can be sure of
I'll never ask for more than your love

Nothing's gonna change my love for you
You ought know by now how much I love you
The world may change my whole life through
But nothing's gonna change my love for you
If the road ahead is not so easy,
Our love will lead the way for us
Like a guiding star
I'll be there for you if you should need me
You don't have to change a thing
I love you just the way you are
So come with me and share the view
I'll help you see forever too


I love you DAD... 
"to have and to hold...."

At his best on his 31st

We celebrated my husband's birthday in two parts. Pre-celebration took place in our simple abode on the 16th in time for the feast of Sto. Nino. It was a simple celebration which tested my stamina in cooking and food preparation. I prepared my signature spaghetti, garlic bread, Bulalo. lumpiang shanghai, and Leche flan. 

 Unfortunately, this was taken during snack time and other dishes were only prepared over dinner.

Yesterday, 17th January, was my husband's actual 31st natal day. This was my gift for him, a Starbucks tumbler.

 Then we went to the mall to play, stroll, shop and eat. We were supposed to go to the Avilon Zoo or Enchanted Kingdom but Kyle's condition did not allow us to go in any where of these places. As we usually do during special occasions, we go to nice places that we don't normally visit and go through.  Going to the mall is just an ordinary family field day for us because anytime we want to visit  the mall, we can. Since malls here in our place are just minutes away from our house. In fact, we can choose from small to classy malls. These are some of the pictures we took in Mall of Asia.

Nevertheless, we still had fun on my husband's special occasion. I realized that it's not about the place, it's about how we celebrate our loved one's special day for as long as the people you want to be with on that special occasion are complete.

1-11-11

I was so disappointed that I forgot  the date 1-11-11. Well, it's  quite interesting that yesterday's date was full of number 1's. Some say that dates with repeating numbers bring good fortune. I don't believe and I don't want to believe that they are so true. What I believe is that man decides and makes his own fortune, whether it'll be bad or good one. Although, yesterday, since I was not aware of the date, I must say that I had a wonderful day. I was able to do the thing that I had to do for the family. However a little of my pride was disregarded, I had no regrets at all. Here we are, still complete and happy. 


January 11, 2011 (01-11-11) was good to me and I hope that everybody else had their share of good fortune/day as well. 

New year!

Happy 2011! I don't have any resolution, it's like a promise that "always"  remains a promise.  I only have a wish, and that is  a better year than the last one. Although 2010 had been very good to me compared to 2009( it was a hell year to me), I wish that 2011 will be far way better than 2010. I don't expect much, I know I have to do my part as well. To start of, I must keep on updating my blog. :)


Cheers to the new year!!! :)
God bless us all!
