Documents are hard to keep especially when they are piling up in the cupboard. With frequent movements [change of address] that we had almost every year, some documents have been shredded just to give us space and light handling. After many years of working in this country, and with every transactions carried out, sure if we didn’t gave up some, the files must have been as high as our wardrobe. Of course, there are those files that we can’t destroy. We always make sure that they are safe in a folder, but still the folder gets filled just because we are growing in number.

A friend advised us to scan documents and just keep them in a CD just to be safe. I guess we can do it to some and just print them whenever needed. Also, we could purchase a better option, thus; document management system is built for such purpose. You can surely relate to my situation whenever I have our documents labelled. The hubby doesn’t just care whether they are well organised whenever he is in a hurry for something. I also have hard time looking for space/time to put them all in order. At least if we keep our documents with easy access, it will save us from our horrible mess.

When something regretful happen, what you think you should have done in the first place to avoid it? Well, regrets always come in the end as they say.

I regret most of the time especially when bad decisions are made. Humans are humans and we are bound to mistakes. Even cows with four legs fall, how much more are humans, with only two legs? Silly, I know. I remember a friend once said, ‘Only Filipinos do such a thing’. We were discussing about how our kids say what they want. My girl is fond of saying “Mom, I want to eat myself.” Literally, she wants to eat herself. That is if you look at it that way. It’s amazing how we parents understand what our kids want to say. It’s like magic that only we could figure out, leaving others puzzled sometimes. I used to visit a friend who by that time has a year old daughter when I was pregnant. The daughter uttered a few words that only the Mom understood. I was like, what was that?

One of the few things that I regret not doing is the opportunity to study college with some help from the school (scholarship), unfortunately, my parents turned it down. They thought it wouldn’t be a good idea to live by myself at 16. The city was extremely dangerous for me that time. Well, I didn’t have to argue and I ended up looking for a job while under my older cousin’s care. Not until 2001 when my Aunt helped me get a computer degree, which I was so thankful for. Sure it wasn’t easy that time. Now I am left with big a ‘debt of gratitude’ that when they are in slight difficulties (financial), my conscience bothers me a lot. Nah, I am now left with a bad thought. Well, at least I helped from the least cent that I have.

I should have invested on DSLR cameras for important events,like the birth of my girls, birthdays and day to day activities that are worth a great capture. Having a digital camera sure has great advantages than those cameras, ages ago. Well, we didn’t own such camera before, as we only pay a local photographer during special occasions like weddings and school commencement exercises. Having to read camera reviews on the net, I have thought that maybe, I should really save something for this. I got my 3 year old digital camera that is now left with my parent’s care back home. I heard it doesn’t work any more, I guess they didn’t know how to operate it. I bought a portable one, pink in colour and it truly reflects our household. We do have girl’s power here as the Dad always says.

I just love the effect of DSLR cameras and also the chance of enhancing the photos more to your desired output. Nah, I really wish I could have it real soon. My girls are growing fast and I don’t want to miss any of their achievements. I am just looking at our archives that we have from the year my little one is born. It truly is a great feeling refreshing our memories with the help of a camera. Time flies fast.

Is it not nice to meet people on special occasions? Felt special each time our friends sent out invitations for they are celebrating baptism, anniversaries and mostly birthdays. We were just at the party last Saturday and we’re glad to have met our dear friends again, after just a month of meeting last. Seems that husbands are into celebrating their birthdays too, just because they get a chance to sit and relax with a bottle of beer in hand .Read: Filipinos! Parties won’t be complete without it.

Before this month ends, we will be celebrating our Nanay’s (friend’s Mom) 60th birthday. And formal attire is required for it will be in a hotel, I think so. They hired a special function room and we are all invited again. Sure we will be out and about to look for suiting outfits. Girls do have troubles when it comes to dressing up. Hubby already has his so he’s all set. Problem with me is my bulging tummy. I don’t know if I will look great just as the party photo I have had last 2007.

Too heavy and feel so grumpy at times. There must be something to be done with my fats. I say, regardless of me breastfeeding exclusively, my pre pregnancy figure [:-), is there?] is too far to be achieved. I love being pregnant. My pregnancy weight with now my toddler doesn’t reach 50kgs during my first and second, thus, she was only 6lbs 3 oz when born. She is normal and there wasn’t any need for extra ounces for she gained weight really fast to keep. Now she is advanced in almost everything. That includes correcting the parents with what shapes she is drawing.

I really wish to lose weight fast. My no caffeine diet [started just yesterday] should work for I am not ready for diet pills, just yet. Like many other determined women, I should as well persevere to achieve this dream.

Kiddie programs on TV really does have adult following. It isn’t just kids that enjoy watching them, but adults too. There are instances that instead of doing something else, I will just sit there and watch programs with my girl. It isn’t just interactive, but it is lot of fun. This ‘super why’ program is about solving mysteries in a fairytale book, with some sort of letter hunting that will indeed keep a toddler real busy. Most featured stories are from the book that we constantly read almost every night. Goldilocks and the three bears is the story that my girl loves, she even memorized the lines already with funny voices of those three bears that she created.

Being a mother is not just taking care/looking about their needs, but a friend to them,too. When there’s nobody to play with and when days seem so boring, whom should they talk to but only you. Not even to mention if you are a stay at home Mom. Rewards that a mother gets from rearing a child/children are incomparable. I think our tantrums won’t last, so we just need to enjoy them now, though it proves hard sometimes for we will soon miss this stage.

Not from a fast food restaurant but from my kitchen. We have a portable fryer bought last week. I found it really helpful to fry chips and plantain. I just fried a bit of chicken breaded with Filipino breading mix and it is tasting good so far. Chicken with chips is what we love eating at Supermacs. Only that there isn’t any fizzy drinks. I’ve decided and hope to finally ban it in the days to come. I don’t like the way our girl drinks it. I also have trouble after drinking it. Our Mc Donalds days have been lessen just because whenever we are out there, I always make sure that I get my girl’s mind occupied with something else. We used to have it at least 2-3 times a month.

Sure it isn’t a healthy option eating fried foods. I will have to plan frying at least once a week. With that, our tummies won’t be fat, as my girl says. I am weighing at a staggering 121lbs. Not good for I am short. I would have to reduced my portion now and be active before it’s too late. It’s easier preventing this at an early stage and I will have to look for some quick weight loss tips as I planned to wearing my red dress before October. Why is food so tempting? Can’t I just eat a bit and be satisfied?

Are you looking for a trusted website to buy diet pills? You won’t find more than what Diet Pill Discounts is offering. They don’t just sell diet pills but also provide reviews for the top diet pills available in today’s competitive market.

Whoever is wondering why I’ve grown so big just after New Year, I would say because I love eating. Eating is so tempting especially during those holiday season. I also have to follow a high fibre diet but I couldn’t keep up. I know it’s I who suffer and let me tell you, I do spend time in the loo. Sorry but the truth is, it has been bothering for years now. I even have another schedule in the theatre. This is something that I am weak about. I am hopeful that this problem will soon disappear, provided that I will be watchful with what I eat.

The program is about people’s mishaps abroad. The supposed to be an enjoyable holiday turned up to be the other way around. It wouldn’t be a surprise if someone intentionally breaks the law, however, if everything happens because you are framed up by some wicked individuals; your world will sure turn upside down.

A lady was caught with cocaine in her back pack. She knows that she has something hidden there, so first and foremost, when checked at the airport, she will show any signs that are easy to distinguish. Just like the program “nothing to declare” in Australia. Supposed there aren’t machines that scan luggage, how else will authorities detect passenger’s suspicious actions? You won’t panic if you know you’re hiding nothing, will you? When I travelled for more than a day first time, I know I look real nervous. I didn’t know where I was going, without the guide I know I would be lost. Of course I wasn’t all that naive as I can read directions. It was just that it was a complete different environment. I wasn’t in my homeland any more and I could only use but my second language, that when not used properly, I sure be in trouble.

I sure require an ab workout. I cannot blame everybody who says I am not keeping myself well just because I don’t have time to exercise. Hello? They sure know how hungry I am, huh. Actually, that is just a lame excuse because I have all my time to do that. I can even do that while watching TV. I mean I can be in front of the set whole day on a lazy day.

This is taken just recently. As you can see, there is a lot of hard work to do to achieve a flat tummy there.Hubby has tiny packs and I just love it.
