Working on Weekends

2

 

 

 

 

 

 

I spent my weekends doing my online work. Yes, I am still accepting work online particularly to my favorite clients. I am updating websites and doing marketing works online. I am glad that they still remember me and want to me to be part of the projects. I am forever thankful for them. Actually, I am trying to slow down a bit specially now that my due date is coming soon. I don’t stress myself much but when special projects like this comes my way, I really can’t say no. Of course, it’s not good to say NO to the blessings. 🙂

If I am working, I am giving all my best and no one can ever distract me, not even my business. So I need to let my people handle my business for a while but of course I keep on tracking them. It is nice that I have my CCTV in our spa, where I can easily check on my people. “evil boss” ahahha and yes they are aware of that. 🙂

I am also reading a book lately “Sometimes you Win Sometimes You Learn” By John Maxwell.  I love all the guides from the books specially this one quote:

How’s your day?

Awakening

Spiritual Awakening

I realized that in some level I am already experiencing Awakening. I think there is so much in life that we should see and appreciate. Sometimes we feel the emptiness, loss and even hurt and it seems that we can’t control it anymore no matter how hard we tried. When that time comes all we have to do is to let the storm pass and hope that the storm that passes will teaches us lessons that will definitely awakens our soul.

Pregnancy Update

In every pregnancy there are some discomforts. The most difficult part is not to get enough sleep because I feel the pain every part of my body. No sleeping positions can give me comfort.

But hey, I am on my 31st week already and I made this far 🙂 I am thankful for all your prayers and wishes. It made me stronger and believes that everything will be okay at the end.

Every time I feel the discomfort I am just looking forward for the day that I can hold our Rainbow baby. I know that everything will be so worth it.

So here I am just taking most of my time enjoying all this discomforts. 🙂

Have a blessed weekends everyone!

Worrier

5

Yes I am a worrier. I worry about everything but when I realized that all those worries are just useless specially if it will affect my daily activities. So I am this daily battle with my worries. I always find ways to destruct myself from it.

Here are some of the ways I found out to overcome my worries:

Most of all, I pray so hard that the Angels, Mama Mary and Jesus will guide me always. I let them control everything and all I have to do is just relax and start focusing my mind on the things that really matters.

To Do

I spend the whole day working but my favorite part is resting. 🙂 I need to do it frequently specially if I am seating the whole day. Due to my big tummy, I have back and leg discomforts. I also need to go out to check my business and of course to walk around the mall.

The cold weather lately is so perfect that I find it hard to wake up early. I just love being a work at home mom. 🙂

Something New

I downloaded new apps in my iPad and that made me busy in the past few days. Not to mention that I have a new work. Well, my favorite Boss just bombarded me with new projects and I am excited to do it. I am so happy that I have something new to do because I am quite bored of the usual routine.

So I downloaded Papers by FiftyThree in my iPad and that is the reason why Gareth has limited access to my iPad. hhahah

Here’s my first attempt:

 

I know it is not cute LOL but I am not really good in arts because my favorite subject is Math but I am trying. During my school days, I really hate art but I don’t know but this time I am interested on learning about art. That is the reason why I started painting and speaking of painting, I spent much of the ink and canvass already and sometimes I am so lazy to paint or I really don’t know what to paint anymore. Naks.. I already a painter block moment. ahahahha

While thinking of new concept to paint, I am now trying to doodle and believe me, it is still hard even though I asked hubby to get me a nice pen. Yesterday, he got me a new pen, it is a nice pen but still my drawing is not nice. Siguro wala talaga yan sa pen kasi hindi pa nadevelop ang talent ko. Kahit na pangit ang drawing ko ok lang kasi maganda naman ang pen ko. ahahah

So here is my new work today:

 

See, improving? because I have a nice pen. ahahah

It is somewhat addicting because I can express myself but I have to stop it for a while because I have to concentrate on my work. I need to finish my project today so that my client can send the payment. I need that payment for my Forex investment. ahhaha

How’s your day? I hope you have the best one!

The Hardest Question

Since my daughter died, I never thought that answering a certain question can be so hard. When I go out and meet strangers and all of a sudden they asked me “How many children do you have?” I really don’t know how to answer it not because I don’t know the answer but I don’t know how to express myself.

But I am getting used to it and sometimes I have this quick reply. Before I got pregnant and someone pop the question I just say 2, specially if Gareth is not with us. If Gareth is with us I just say 1 and hoping that no follow up questions.

Now that I am pregnant, some asked, “pang ilan na yan? (pointing to my big tummy)” and I just say 2.

I never thought that it will be this hard. I just don’t feel good if I have to talk about the loss to a stranger. I also don’t want to change the mood of the other person because when I start talking about it, most of the time they got affected and I feel bad too and sometimes it will not stop me from crying. I don’t want to cry infront of the stranger.

Of course I love to talk about Ayumi in a right time and place and maybe to a right person. So if you are reader of my blog and it happens that you see me, don’t ask the hardest questions but just let me know that you are reader of my blog and through that, I know that you know that soft spot of me.

 

Silly, stupid, yes, it is still hard and I can't explain it.

Lazy Sunday

I think I am so lazy lately. Most of the time I woke up late. I don’t know but it seems that I am restless. So I need to spend more time sleeping and eating. hahahah

So today, I decided to just stay in the house. The weather is also gloomy that made me want to stay in bed the whole day. But I have work to catch up so here I am working while watching tv. I also love every moment of it because most of the time I love to feel every movements of the baby.

Later I have to catch up with my readings. I just love weekends… 🙂

 

Because He loves you even more than I ever could.

Mom on Duty

This past few days, I am busy for the kids. Oh well, I had my 3D ultrasound and we are very excited to see baby’s feature and of course the face. I am glad that everything is normal.

So here’s the 3D picture of our Rainbow Baby.

At first, the doctor find it hard to view his face because he is covering it with his hand. Then we tried to change position and ring a bell to let him move and viola we got it perfectly. I am so happy to see his face. Ang cute!

Since there are advisory about measles outbreak, I decided to let Gareth has his MMR vaccine. Yes, it is already late but I really make it sure to give it to him late because of his autism. So after he got his MMR shot, I am sleepless. I keep on checking on him if he has any side effects. I am glad that the whole night he is sleeping soundly and just got mad at me because I keep on checking on him. Well, napraning lang ako.

I also had my OB appointment earlier that day, and since I am a night person, it was really hard to wake up early. I am not even drinking too much coffee since I got pregnant and that made me feel more sleepy the whole appointment. I also don’t like staying in the hospital because it seems that I am absorbing the negative energy. I become weak everytime I am at the hospital. I really don’t know why. So after my appointment, instead of going somewhere with hubby and Gareth, I decided to go home early and rest. So the result, I sleep early and wake up late. It feels so good because I am now active and well rested.

Oh, actually not really well rested because I keep on peeing at night and of course checking on Gareth. The baby is really moving the whole time this time and I like it but sometimes when I am sleeping, I suddenly wake up due to his hard kicks. I also find it hard to find a comfortable sleeping positions.

My OB told me to control my diet. I really don’t know how to control it. I gained 4lbs and to my OB it is already too much. So she wanted me to eat meat in a match box like and half cup of rice. I really don’t know if I can do it because if I feel hungry my tummy is really making weird sounds and start feeling dizzy. So the only solution is to eat a heavy meal. I am not also allowed going to public places lately due to measles outbreak so every time I feel bored I just went to a mall with less shoppers and this are the social malls. When we went to “social malls” I feel poorer! I think I can’t buy anything because just getting inside the store will make me a thousands poorer! LOL

So when hubby wanted me to check a certain store and I know that I don’t have enough money to purchase anything in that store, I don’t want to get in. I just watch from a far and wishes so hard that I am a billionaire because I don’t want to get in any store without buying anything. So window shopping is just enough for me now.

But when we went to Rustan’s to check baby items, well, I never controlled myself anymore. I make sure to complete the baby essentials and so far I got almost everything. Well, we really plan to get all his essentials this month and purchase the bassinet, stroller and other big items next month. It is always exciting to buy all baby items. I am just controlling myself because some of the items are not really that useful, so I just focus on the basics.

We clear some parts of our walk in closet and placed baby items and everytime I see his clothes, it made me realize that this life is still worth living for.
