Mind of a fickle

On Sunday morning, as soon as we woke up and went out of the room, she went straight to the tv's switch and asked me to turn it on, " Ba-ba, Ba-ba!" (for Barney) On Sunday afternoon, while we were having a very late lunch at Sizzler. Bebi A (with her milk bottle) looked at us (probably thinking), these guys are still good for another 30 minutes or so, succumbed to dream world. She looked so cute and oblivious to her noisy surroundings, she must be really sleepy... (I woke her up though because I was scared that her face will fall flat on the table). On Sunday night (Bebi A was already sleeping), while Pre was fixing Bebi A's cot, she suddenly sat down and clapped her hands, "Yehey!" She must be having a very nice dream. Hehe...

The week started on the wrong foot for me. I guess I was probably so tired from the previous week's work and activities. But the Lord had some surprises along the way. So, come to think of it, I just have to plant for my feet on the ground and the week has zoomed. Come Monday, I made a mini-blooper which didn't sit well with my boss. I actually consider it so small because it will not really halt operations but knowing my 'raise it to the roof' boss, they're probably talking about me behind my back (them being the roof boss and the girl boss). So, to comfort myself, I prayed then login to an account and voila! There was a change, good I hope! But, I wouldn't know until the actual results come. I went home feeling pacified though. Tuesday was extra special (I am being sarcastic!) It was supposed to be special since I won't be going to the office. I was asked to go to Lotussphere (to rub shoulders with other Lotus Admins/Developers). Free food and g...

We bid our farewell to Mareng B last Saturday. It was all girls kiddie party at McDonalds, since we won'tbe able to celebrate her birthday with her, we decided to advance it tied to the despedida. Due to my busy schedule (o diba, showbiz na showbiz?), I was not able to follow up on McDo at the time that we wanted, around 6pm. So when I called 7 days before the event, the slot has been takenup. What did I expect? So we were left with an 11AM party. Mareng B was quite curious as to why we're meeting this early. She was so surprised. We asked her to blow the candles of her oh so tiny cake hahaha Then, Auntie Monica asked us to join the games. Hala, ang saya nga mga bata! E nanalo pa ako, so doubly fun! I now know Dawter T's feeling whenever we get to the party late and she was not able to join any games. We then ate our feast, mine was Chicken McNuggets with all the sauces that McDo has to offer. Haha. Sarap pala pag party because all the sauces are out there for yo...

I had to leave early yesterday due to our client's disaster recovery exercise. While I was in the bathroom, Dawter T woke up and came in. She asked "Why are you taking a bath? It's Saturday!" (Medyo tricky po ang salita ni Dawter T, naliligo po ako pag Sabado baka lang antok pa sya kasi mga 7 pa po nun.) "I have to work, it's Tuesday today, anak." I said. So, she went back to bed and lay down. But, didn't go back to sleep. While I was dressing up. She blurted out, "Do you want to grow tall, mommy?" "Yes, I want to." Just didn't add that I stopped growing up after my 6th grade hahaha "Then, go back to bed and sleep!"

My close friend, Mareng B is leaving SG for good. Our history goes back to the time when we first came here. We were roomies then until the time she got married. (We got married the same year, had our first babies the same year --- 3 weeks apart, we're ninangs of each other's kids) She's always there for me and never gets tired of listening to my woes and my triumphs. We were also officemates for 6 years, only last year did we separate ways -- workwise. Though it saddens me to see her go, it's also time to celebrate and be happy because they are about to reach their dreams. I wish her and her famiy the best in their new life down under. I won't say goodbye because we'll see each other again. Don't forget my boxful of TimTams hahaha Wab u!

Dawter T, in her usual, inquisitive self talked to Ate A. "Ate A, is your mommy and daddy in heaven?" "Yes, they are in heaven," Ate A told her. "Why aren't my mommy and daddy in heaven?"

On Cars "Mommy, your car was nice when you married daddy, white na may flowers pa!" (triggered upon watching Maging Sino Ka Man last night) On Grooming "Mommy, why don't you grow your hair long again? When your hair is long, you're pretty." On Discipline "Mommy, don't be angry at Bebi A. Say it like this "Bebi A, stop it!""
