It’s the start of 2013 and nothing describes the start of the year for me, but hopeful. If you have read my last few posts, you would realize how very few posts I made in 2012 owing to the fact that I became very busy with work and with, well, life. A lot of things happened in 2012, but many of those I failed to chronicle here. The things I was able to, were unfortunately, very painful moments in my life, involving the demise of four people who were dear to me. You know how it is with people…that we usually remember those that hurt us, those that brought immense pain, maybe because it’s harder when one sheds tears of sadness than of happiness. Or maybe it’s just me. I don’t know. But even so, I have always felt that when things have gone rock bottom, the only thing that remains is for them to start going up. So this 2013, that’s what I am, hopeful. Hopeful that there will be more happy moments, more things to celebrate, more good things happening for everyone. This is ironic, though, considering that 2012 was supposedly my year. I was born in the year of the Dragon, anyway. (yeah, I am 36 turning 37 this year. so whut?) But then, maybe things really don’t go according to what year one was born to. Read more

Uso pa noon ang pagbebase sa mga blogpost. Ibig sabihin, paunahan kayong magcomment. Parang pag nagtataguan, maguunaunahan kayong maka-base sa poste o puno habang ang taya ay naghahanap sa ibang mga nakatago. Parang pagtuntong mo sa safe zone habang naglalaro ng sipaang bola. Pasimuno si Fr. Felmar. Magsasabi sya kung kailan nya ipopost ang kung anumang isinulat nya at maguunaunahan tayong makacomment. May katumbas na prize ang mga mauuna. At dahil ito ay pakontes, shempre may mananalo. Read more

Hindi ito tungkol sa ngayo’y disbanded nang MYMP ni Juris. Tungkol ito sa isang twitter post ng anak kong si Ate Kara na naalala kong ikwento ngayon. Read more
I had been actively posting in Facebook a lot of my two preschoolers’ antics, mostly, Cassie’s. Paminsan minsan may mga hirit ang little boy o mga kalokohan na naipopost ko pero yung iba hindi ko maipost dahil…ano…basta, tinetext ko na lang sa mga blogger friends na mageenjoy sa pagbabasa. :-) Read more

This afternoon, I finally paid for the flu vaccines the family and Anne will have. But with a heavy heart, I had to, again, finally erase your name from the form I was submitting. I tried to put it off maybe because I did not want to face the truth that you are already gone. Read more
Please allow me to continue where I left off in yesterday’s post. This time though, it will just be a narrative report (heheh) of what happened after my dearest hubby surprised me and made me cry a river on the morning of Valentine’s Day. Read more
