pancakes

This big girl will definitely be sleeping in this weekend. I will indulge! I will catch up on sleep and eat pancakes for lunch…

And then I will read and read… and sleep some more!

Happy weekend to all!

May we all have a sun-shiny weekend filled with lots of fun and laughter!

proposal

I wonder if engagement rings went flying out of stores weeks before the 14th. I wonder if proposals were made on that day. Whatever happened last 14th? Would you like to share your romantic story, if there’s one?

As for this lady, I spent it with the family. Boo! I know it sounds boring to you but the truth is I enjoyed the day. It’s no big deal anymore that I was dateless last Valentine’s Day. So what? There are far more problems in my life that need my focus than being dateless. I’m not being defensive, I just want to say that I was happy last 14th even without someone to swap spits with hahaha!

So what happened last 14th with you?

Lani got married and then got pregnant right after when she’s in college. She graduated and chose to become a stay-at-home mom so she could take care of her kid and the family. She and her husband talked about it and agreed that it’s the best setup for them.

But now that Lani’s son, and daughter who came two years after, are 10 and 8, respectively, she thought about working. Her husband started a business two years ago and since Lani once worked as a store attendant when she was in her teens, she told her husband she can man the check out counter instead of hiring someone in replacement of the person occupying the said position now. She knows how to operate a POS machine with a star micronics printer. It’s stock knowledge and one that she won’t forget anytime soon. Since the business location is just a couple of houses away from their own residence, and her husband knows how bored she is at home when the kids are in school, he acquiesced and Lani will soon start work.

It will occupy her days, but her main priority is still her family.

fashionable kids

Kids these days… you wouldn’t believe how fashionable they are! Can you tell from the two fashionable little girls in the photo? How cute can they be!

If I remember it right, I started becoming conscious with what I was wearing back in senior year in college already. I was that late when it comes to fashion! Hahaha! But I do believe the lack of resources and my focus on my studies were the reasons why I was such.

But kids these days…

someone

I think every woman wants to have someone to keep her warm when it’s cold. Someone who will warm her heart like what a heated blanket can do. Someone who will be there ready to warm her cold nights with love and romance.

You might admit this or not but I believe it’s true. Every woman (that includes me!) just wants to be loved for herself. She wants to be cherished. She wants her partner to be proud of her and smile at her like she’s the only woman in the world!

Ah, love…

It can really keep her warm…

I didn’t know that I would enjoy going around the hardware store looking for those industrial supplies that I was there to buy for someone. I think I spent at least three hours in the store and I wanted more time to explore it!

Every single nook and cranny of the store was very interesting to me. I love the displays and showcases. I love that everything in it can be used at home. While I was in there, I was already making notes and planning on getting some stuff for home when I will have some rooms renovated this summer.

I can’t wait to go back and shop again!

My brother and I went to a pet center last weekend. We went there to get our pet shih tzu groomed and in the process I saw a chihuahua puppy and bought it for myself. We were there for hours and we really explored the area. There were so many pet stalls there and each stall had at least two attendants manning it.

In one of those pet stalls we met a woman who came all the way from a far away province to work here in the city. She is proud of her work, no matter that all she does is attend to those who would like to buy puppies and pet supplies. She told us that it may not seem like it but she knows how to operate a computer system. She was trained to handle a POS system and knows how to navigate a elo touch monitor. I was impressed! She told us that it’s just one step towards her goal of becoming a businesswoman herself. And seeing her determination, I know she can be one and soon.

A woman has strengths that amaze men
She can handle trouble and carry heavy burdens
She holds happiness, love and opinions
She smiles when she feels like screaming
She’s happy and laughs when she is afraid
Her love is unconditional
There’s only one thing wrong with her
She sometimes forgets what she is worth.

I am guilty of this. I sometimes forget that I am worth more than I see myself as. I need to be reminded.

And I am also reminding YOU that you need to value yourself more than what you actually think of. You are precious!

Me Time

I may appear to be strong and running on 100% fully charged batteries all the time but truth is I also get tired and worn out. This woman is in need of some ME time! And I am hoping to sleep in tomorrow and on Sunday.

Rest is what I will be doing all weekend long!

Happy weekend everyone!

;)

Three women of different ages. All of them are expecting a proposal from their long-time boyfriends this coming 14th of February. Valentine’s Day. A day for lovers all over the country. A day when most people feel the urge to declare their love for their special someone. A day when men who are love sick feel like buying designer engagement rings and proposing to their women. A day of red roses and wine and candle-lit dinners.

So the three women’s men will put a ring on their fingers in a matter of days. They are both nervous and excited about it! They are pretending they don’t know yet but reliable sources already confirmed it. A proposal will happen and the sure answer will be a big YES!
