Hello Monday !

It's Monday once again, and just like everyone else I know, I can't wait for the weekend! Hahaha! I feel so lazy on Mondays. I just wanna stay in bed (only if i could) and eat inside the room while watching tv or surfing online. But yeah , i have kids so that keeps me busy somehow. Busy but lazy.. how is that?

It was a "working" weekend for me because I got a LOT of tasks!! Weee!! That means additional savings huh?! Yeah, thats right, savings! The birthday of the princess is just a few months away , and I need some more moolah for the other expenses.

2 years na kami

Last June 19 was our 2nd anniversary and we are celebrating this weekend (post father's day celebration na din)m We availed of the Linden Suites membership that comes with a complimentary overnight stay.. good deal :)

And here's a song that I wanted to share with you guys.. Its from the High School Musical the Movie... just love the lyrics... makes me go back to 1997, when Gelo and I became officially together. HAHAHA! Feeling high school...

What I've been looking for

It's hard to believe
That I couldn't see
You were always there beside me
Thought I was alone
With no one to hold
But you were always right beside me

This feelings like no other
I want you to know

I've never had someone that knows me like you do
the way you do
I've never had somone as good for me as you
no one like you so lonely before i finally found
what i've been looking for

So good to be seen
So good to be heard
Don't have to say a word

For so long I was lost
So good to be found
I'm loving having you around

This feeling's like no other
I want you to know
I've never had someone that knows me like you do
The way you do
I've never had someone as good for me as you
No one like you
So lonely before, I finally found
what I've ben looking for

Lesson Learned

I better write about this one first. Just this Monday, My sis, our friend Dennis, Gelo and I went to Ongpin to buy fllor tiles and lights for our house renovation.. Yes, i also forgot to blog about that. So there, it was already lunch time so we decided to have lunch at one of their famous restos in ongpin.. Alam ko, super sarap talaga the chinese food there, but i never expected the resto na ganun.. old house with old chairs and tables. Tawa na nga kami ng tawa ng sis ko , sabi ko pa siguro kuripot yung may ari, ayaw pa renovate.. ang yaman na siguro nun hahaha!

We already made our order , and the food looks yummy talaga... but we thought of transferring to David's Tea house since its within the area. pero cge, for the yummy food , we will give it a try.. don't judge the book by it's cover di ba? I was a bit exhausted and thirsty at that time, we were given a plactic pitcher of water and glasses with ice. I had second thoughts of drinking that water.. pero since uminom si gelo, uminom na din ako. I assumed it's distilled. But I guess its not. What made matters worst.. I ordered Black GUlaman ( for sure they used the same water) , while gelo, Dennis and my sis had sodas.

Ito na simula ng pag hihirap ko... That same night, i felt something different with my tummy that made me go to the CR in the middle of the night. I wont give in much detail of this na.. heehhee kakahiya. Then tuesday morning, 6 times ako nag CR from 7 am till 11 am! I was feeling so weak na.. At 2pm, we went to Joaqui's pedia for his check - up. We were on our way home at di ko na talaga kaya.. i vomited and was so weak, so I asked Gelo to bring me to the Emergency Room. Good thing kasama namin sis ko. I had a few Blood exams to check for my sodium level na din. Everything was normal naman. I wasnt able to give them a sample of my stool, so sabi ko, once i have a sample. dadalin ko na lng sa Laboratory since my sis works there. I was given Hydrite lang muna (which I would only take a sip kaya nagagalit na si gelo , hehehe).

Pag uwi from UST, I have fever naman.. kakainis , kasi nung nasa ER ako, wala ako fever. First time ko talaga nagkasakit ng ganito after giving birth.. super hirap! I tried eating but i feel like im gonna throw up anytime. Good thing naka leave pa din si Gelo. He takes care of Joaqui ( who now counts 1-2-3!) when I was sooo weak.


I was able to submit a stool sample just this afternoon, and everyhing is normal. MOre liquids to flush out the toxins though..

This is indeed a lesson learned for me. I swear! I would only drink water if I am 100% sure that it is distilled. And if i'm in a resto, i would only drink bottled water. Not that I am maarte or maselan, but I don't wanna experience it again. Never again.

shattered

That's how I feel today.

Life has been on the dark side for the past 2 weeks.

One of my sister's Best friend from college ( a family friend too) passed away last May 31.

I am recovering from a 3 day attack of acute gastro enteritis.

And last week, June 5.. we lost Papa... my father - in law.

its another year for me

In a few minutes as I'm typing this entry, I am unfolding another year in my life.. Im turning 28 !!

If I am to summarize my past year.. i can only think of one word.. MOTHERHOOD. Yes, I am a devoted mom to my son ( I guess we all are..LOL) and my 27th year was soooo full of new experiences in life as a mom.

And now that I am 28, I wish I can do more as a wife. Not that I neglected my roles to Gelo last year but I just wanna nurture what we have since we started. And of course, Joaqui would still be my priority..Sabi naman kasi ni Gelo, kahit hindi ko na sya masyado maasikaso, and kahit wala na ko magawa sa bahay.. basta si Joaqui dapat unahin ko ..always.. and thats what I do every single day =)

I never thought that motherhood would strike my views in life when I was 27. It surely made an impact on me.

I thank God for everything in my life.

I thank my family for all the support, love and care.

I thank Gelo and Joaqui for making me complete . . and for making me believe in the true meaning of happiness.

and I Thank everyone who made my 27th year a memorable one.

I wish that this another year in my life would be filled with happiness and good health for me and for my family. (ooppss.. and World Peace! LOL)

turning 28

.... 10 years after my debut party

... 7 years after college graduation

... almost 2 years of getting married

... a year after Joaqui's birth

and now im turning 28 on May 10.

God has been so great to me in my 28 years of existence. There were loops and bumps during the journey, i know it was a part of the thing called LIFE. What matters is that I was able to keep up during those times. Life won't be that easy without Gelo.. and now life is happier with Joaqui. I am endlessly thanking God for all the blessings that HE is showering me and my family.

As i cleaned Joaqui's bottles awhile ago, i said to myself :" Would I be asking for a gift from gelo?" Hmmm.. hindi na lang.. (well , it depends baka may surprise sya, LOL .. but sure thing, i won't ask for a gift, Joaqui's party was enough, hehehe) . ANd besides , Why would I ask for a gift if I already have this...
