Time

The last week was very tiring for me. It was a test of wills, strength and patience.

I was on duty for one whole week. Duty at work. Mind you, it was only my 3rd week. I had to wake up early to go to work, and come back home, dead tired. I can only eatmy dinner, watch a little of my fave soaps (di pa rin pinatawad) and do a little ekek.I don't even see Bebi A awake. One night, I called home and talked to Dawter T, she saidshe will wait for me but as I rushed inside our room, I saw her sprawled and sleeping in ourbed. It was so disheartening. The two joys in my life were already sleeping and not ableto infuse some strength back to me.

I could have quit last week but I did not. Because it is my resolution to be firm.It has its moments when I get to solve cases which I didn't come across before. But, wasa little panic when servers crashed on me for two consecutive nights. This is what I have been telling myself before I made the move to this new job. I don't want to move when the times are tough because for sure, I will experience some rough times wherever I go. Tough times at work is not a reason to quit.

As I always tell myself, God knows when our hearts need encouragement. He'll make time for me to see my little ones. He'll make time for me to see Bebi A blowing kisses to me in the morning. He'll make time for Dawter T to walk with me to the lift and press the button. He'll make time.

Nyamy Nyamy

Our Bebe A is at the stage of being cheeky and endearing.  She can speak so many words now, some clear, some not.  Hehehe.  She likes to sing as well.  She actually has a good tone.  One of the songs that she likes is the one from Wiggles --- Fruit Salad.  Her version though is : Mom : Fruit Salad Bebe A :  Nyamy Nyamy (Yummy Yummy)

Math Matters

Dawter T called me up and excitedly told me that she's the highest in Math for term 1. So, I thought it was for their exam in Ordinal numbers. "Mommy, Mrs. T said, I am the highest in my tests and in my worksheets. I am 100 %!" Ok, ok, it's our first year in Primary so I am still a bit confused with the grading system. Then, she said, my English is good, but it's not like Math! That got me more confused! But still, I owe her a trip to Night Safari! Hehehe. *** I got home and found Dawter T's assessment folder. And lo and behold, it's true! I am very proud of my chicka! Hehehe (And Pre was even more than proud, for him, only Math matters hahaha)

Sunday Afternoon

We've had an adventure this afternoon. We ate at Pizza Hut and was very disappointed that they forgot to bring out our pizza. It should have come sooner but they made a mistake of bringing out thin crust instead of pizza hut. Pre had to ask the crew about it and only then did they informed us that the pizza was still 5 minutes away, and they were giving us some fried chicken for our wait. I mean, hello? We've waited a long time and it was not our fault and you only thought of the chicken after my husband marched in to your area to ask! We're not difficult customers. We're just hungry hehehe... Bad thing turned to good. The manager was Filipina and after Pre told her about our case, she said that Pizza Hut decided that we don't need to pay for what they have served. Fair enough. But, I don't think I will be coming back anytime soon. So sad. To cap our day, took some photos of the girls. Ate too conscious of her teeth. Bebi A, loving her yellow balloon.
