Month: August 2018

Bed Weather

It’s raining for 2 days already amd some parts of Rizal are now flooding.

Some of my meetings were canceled due to the bad weather.

So here I am, just staying inside the house and catching up with the things need to be done.

I was craving for sashimi…

I need to study and be updated for my lessons, I need to do my assignments and study ahead because next week is going to be a crazy week for me.

We also spend more time with the kids. We watched TV with them.

Then just recently hubby bought this to monitor our BP so while I was alone in the room, I checked my bp and I was low blood. It’s always that way, so I need to eat more vegetables and red meat.

How’s your rainy weekend?

Playmates

We arrived in F1 hotel in BGC around 9pm. So Xavier and Kzandria finally meet. They got along immediately and started playing.

It’s been a while already that I last saw her and that was during her baptism.

She grew up so fast and so “bibo”.

I am so proud of Xavier in dealing with babies or other kids. He seems matures enough to play with other kids.

When it was time to go home, Xavier wants the baby to go with us. He even carries Kzandra clothes. Nakakatuwa… Ang bilis nyang maattach.

With Xavier

I was having a meeting and I let Xavier go with us. We arrived around 7pm in a meeting place so we had dinner first.

He keeps on asking about the meeting and I was trying to discuss it to him.

I wanted him to be aware of what i am doing because I want him to familiarize the business.

As early as now I am teaching him to be responsible.

After the meeting we went to BGC to meet my friend’s daughter so they can play.

The way we celebrate

August 3, 2018

Still with a heavy heart, I get up and try to act normal.

We went to Ayumi’s renting place.

I talked to Xavier most of the time, specially those days when I was sad. He’s asking where is Ayumi and I always tell that him that she’s in heaven.

At the Resting Place

Xavier: Mommy is this heaven?

Me: (I don’t know what to say)

After that we went to the mall.

I am not really in the mood of doing things but it is so unfair with the kids. So we watched movie and we let them play and bought toys.

I acted normal but deep inside I am really mourning…

It’s been 5 years since she was gone but the pain is still the same…

 

There were better days…

and there were sad days!

 

But I already learn how to live despite having that pain.

It is already part of my system..

I can’t do something about it anymore…

I just appreciate whatever I have and give thanks to God for the blessings…

I believe that there are reasons for everything…

I trust God in everything and I know He has better plans…

 

Ayumi’s 8th Birthday

August 3, 2018

This is somehow a difficult time to write about.

Today is Pillow’s 8th birthday.

So I really don’t know what to do… I never have a plan.

This should be a big event if only she’s  here…

Para akong ninakawan…  marami pa sanang plano pero wala na… hindi na pwedeng gawin.

I woke up feeling so down. I really don’t know what to do. I don’t have plans just like in the past years. Eto pa may mga memories na binabalik ang facebook, sobrang sakit. Nakita ko ulit kung papano kami nagcelebrate ng birthdays nya.

So ayon nagpunta muna kaming bank then I ordered flower. Dumaan sa Jollibee kasi yon ang favorite food nya. Then nagpunta na kami sa resting place nya.

Deep in my heart I wanted to celebrate but it should be with her.

I’m still wondering how she looks like in eight, her favorite color, favorite food, favorite places to go and I am longing so much about her.

The pain is still the same but I learn how to live my life in that pain.

So many things are going on lately and most of the time I am hoping that she is still with us to celebrate our success. I know someday everything will make sense to me but for now I will continue to live my life despite the confusions.

 

 

August is Here!

Ang bilis ng araw.

Tapos na agad ang July at eto na August na!

Feeling ko wala namang masyadong exciting na nangyayari lately pero sobrang nakakapagod lang.

Halos everyday may meetings.

hold lahat ng travels at kahit out of towns dahil may mga pinaghahandaan lang po ako.

I am excited but I can’t discuss it yet…

But what is really happening right now are the things I am praying for…

I am really happy and grateful for all the blessings…

Kahit sobrang pagod at puyat na kami at siyempre haggard na kailangan pa rin naming gawin to.

How are you people?

 

TWG at BGC

July 29, 2018

I was still not feeling well but I have a very important meeting.

So we went to Pasay then finished around 4pm then headed to BGC.

We had our late lunch at the Japanese Resto and I never took pictures because I have some business associates with me. They don’t know that I am a blogger.

And besides they are older than me and some of them don’t understand about blogging and some social media activities.

They are really old fashion, I need to bring some hard copy of the docs needed. They don’t use email regularly. They don’t do FB Messaging, they don’t use their smart phones and so I need to adjust with them.

It’s quite hard at first but later on I easily adjusted on bringing docs and meeting them anywhere. Sometimes in a place that I’m not familiar but it’s okay. That’s  how it should be.

In reality, I learn a lot from them. I know that I should be open to everything particularly about business. They were teaching me on how to do business and I am really learning and I’m loving it. I realized that although I am doing business for 10 years, I know that I am still a newbie. I am hungry for more.

After our meeting, I stayed longer in BGC because I need to relax myself. I stayed in a coffee shop and read book.

Then we  had our dinner at TWG.

It was our first time since I’m not really a tea person.

But when I checked the menu, I think it’s worth a try since they offer pancakes, crepe and Benedict’s Egg.

So here are our orders:

We tried tea and somehow it calms my throat.

My crepe with mushroom and chicken. So satisfying…

Hubby’s order

Dessert

Me trying the tea.. I’m loving it.

Then we went home around 12 midnight. 🙂 It was a great day.

 

 

Bonding

July 28, 2018

I gathered my relatives to have my birthday celebration at Dampa sa Libis. We also celebrated my Ate Liza’s 56th birthday.

I planned it a week before through our group chat in FB.

It is really easier now to communicate with relatives through FB. I can keep in touch with them easily.

Our schedule was 7pm.

We arrived around 8pm because it was raining so hard.

 

We occupied 2 rooms and we are almost 30pax.

Kulang ang oras namin, inabot kami ng 1am don.

Nagsarado na ang dampa at andon pa kami.

Nagvideoke at kumain ng kumain.

It was so fun!

 

We ordered pansit, chili crabs, buttered shrimps, adobong pusit and laing.

My Ate Liza and her family.

It was a surprise for her. She almost cried!

Rainy Afternoon

July 28, 2018

 

It was a rainy afternoon and after my meeting I went home to rest since I organize a small party with my relatives in the evening.

I was still having my asthma and I think I need to rest so I can have time later.

I had my nebulizer twice a day.

I am having my dates while resting.

Eversince I discover dates, I ordered 2 kilos and have it everyday.

It has so many health benefits that I enjoyed having this as my dessert.

Having time for myself is really important.. so as soon as I found time to rest I really take advantage of it.

 

At Greenbelt

After I purchased my bag we went to our favorite Mediterranean Restaurant.

We order the same thing as before…

Our favorite.  

It was so humid that time and I can’t stay outdoor because of my asthma. We headed home earlier than usual then had my nebulizer and had a good night sleep.
