I don’t have much to share about my Valentine because my little girl is still suffering from colds and cough. She is under medication. Aside from that, our house help was also sick since Valentine’s Day and we were still waiting for her to recover.

Yesterday, I took care of my children. I did not go to work. Frankly, I miss this task. It was tiring but its worth it. Being with your kids the whole day was a very different fulfillment.

Lately I’ve been thinking about being a stay at home mom. It was my hubby who opened the idea since he told me that he observed that I enjoy blogging. I love the idea but my online earnings are not enough to make ends meet. Money in blogging is irregular although I knew some stay at home moms who earn good in blogging. Maybe I need to practice more blog hopping.

In time maybe I will be a SAHM too. I hope so.

I know you already learned about the tragic Maguindanao massacre where 57 people including 18 media personnel (as of presstime) were killed.
The barbaric killing became the talk of the town and  even reached the attention of the world leaders.
It is so sad how a simple filing of candidacy will turn into the worst election related case in the country and the incident even brought the Philippines to the top - as the most dangerous place for journalist.
Like you, I condemn the gruesome killing of my fellowmen, I hope we can give them the justice they deserve.

Hello, Mommies! It’s Friday once again, time for Mommy Moments. Today I share with you Kiat’s first eating experience. She loves mashed potatoes and carrots. The photos will serve as the evidence hehehe. Kuya on the other picture can’t wait to eat his favorite sausage at Kangaroo Jack.

How fast time flies, now I’m crossing over to adulthood. I never imagine living this long, it is tiring but thanks God I can still enjoy life as it is.

To begin with my first day at 30,  I’d love to think I am loved, it is so comforting to know you are loved by the person important to you. I believe it will make me feel better than ever. It can help me feel grounded and more confident rather than skeptical and desperate.

Also on my list is the need to be more health conscious. Exercise and healthy diet should be given attention. I bet bananas will always be included in my meal - to help me keep a low blood pressure, because it is extremely low in salt and high in potassium.

Having a happy break with my family is also in the line. Double the effort in bonding with the kids.

Spend wisely, practice financial discipline to save more and gain financial freedom.

I won’t look back to my past because it is so frustrating to picture the bad days I had. I will only carry good memories on my mind, bunch of hopes for my dreams, tons of persuasive thoughts to inspire me and faith to keep me going.

Life is a journey and I’m taking the next successful step.

This was excerpt from Women’s Self-Esteem comments and D’s answer.

Question: “I’d like to ask you what a woman should do if they found out that his spouse is communicating with his ex and telling that he’s with the woman he never loved and that he will love his ex yesterday, today and tomorrow?”

Answer: Jeesh…should I stay or should I go?

So many asked this question and there are so many reasons to do either when it comes to relationships. Many of us will justify and deny for years because we fear leaving for whatever reason. Others will leave out of fear…fear of investing any more time in a relationship that to them seems unhealthy. We all have different tolerances in how much we will accept from our partners.

In this situation…being that the facts are true…I do not know why anyone would want to stay with another knowing there is no love.

The again…
He could just be saying this to his ex to keep her communicating with him. Some people need others attention to feed their own self-esteem. Even at that this should be addressed.

He could also mean that his ex was his first love and there will be no other like it (every love is different). Again why would anyone still be saying anything of the sort to an ex…unless there is an interest in reuniting with them.

There are many other possible reasons for him saying that.

Answer these questions honestly….
Do you believe what he said to be true?
How is he treating you?
Are you happy with your relationship aside from this statement?
Do you love him enough to try and work this out?

I would most definitely have a discussion with him regarding your feelings. Communication is a must in everything.

These are my thoughts!

A relative while cleaning the Crystal Singing Bowl which was a wedding gift by a friend from Tibet, said that we need to move on after the devastation even it that means, we will start from scratch.

She said she was lucky to save the singing bowl because it can help them heal the wounds that typhoon Ondoy brought them. She even decided to give her friends and relatives a singing bowl as soon as she can make a purchase in silver sky import where she found a variety of it.

It’s eight months before the Presidential elections but what is happening these days are merely character assassination - politicians vs politicians.

You may have noticed the headlines today about Senator Panfilo Lacson’s revelation about former President Joseph Estrada whom he accused as jueteng protector and smugglers’ godfather. Tomorrow expect the news content about Senator Jinggoy Estrada’s speech against Lacson.

Expect more of the same scenario, now that the campaign period is nearing.

They don’t need to expose more about the evil of them, the people know who they really are. It’s just shameful to see how desperate these politicians are just to gain our trust and sympathy.

Do you think, these bickering politicians deserve our vote? I don’t think so. And maybe the line should be like this, GOD, save the Philippines from these kinds of politicians.
