Blame it on the weather

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 goodies usually does something for my soul but I was very uncomfortable at the start of the day because while I was at the mrt, I heared this sound "rippppppppppppp". My long sleeved polo had this 3 inch rip at the back. Ate A told me that it could probably due to the iron's high heat that made the material susceptible to ripping. Hayyy I bore with it until the morning's tea time where I rushed to the mall to buy a new polo. Looking at the bright side, I have a new polo!

The weather kept changing yesterday and it just made me feel blue. At the end of the day, when I arrived home, Bebi A sang abc for me (as in literally, abc lang! hahaha) which had a huge effect to turn around my day! Ang cute kasi!

Lesson learned from Monday til now is that no matter how bad you think the day is, it will surely turn around if you look at the bright side of things.

My dear Soox:
Read lamentations 3:22-24 focusing on verse 23. "His mercies are new every morning, great is thy faithfulness." Remember, our hope rest in Him alone through Jesus Christ our Lord.

Dress Code

If wearing jeans every day of the week is the gauge for a great workplace, my new job would have a tie with my last workplace in the Philippines. Yes, we can dress down the whole week. I am so thrilled with this prospect. First day was ok. My boss took a picture of me from camera phone and sent this picture in an email to the global team. Oh man! Workwise, I find the team to be so organized and that scares me. After being lawless for a year, it's a big turnaround. When I opened my email this morning, I got almost 70+ mails, and my training plan already laid out. They also gave me a web camera and headset for team web conferencing. (I really need to lose weight now, the camera will add a few more pounds hahaha) Then, I found out that they don't come to work on time and we can leave at exactly 545pm. Woohoo! That's one of the things that were nagging me but I was so pleased to learn that. We even had a 1 and a half hour of lunch time. Hmmm... This could be very...

Confession

Being a Mom.  Sometimes I feel as I am not cut out for it. Too much work.  Too much responsibility.  Too much worry. Worry that Ate T is taking the bus today.  Ate A's tooth is still in there and the new one has already come out.  Baby A has colds and is screaming and wants to cuddle. Sometimes it leaves me breathless. But When I pick up Ate T from our meeting place, I feel so proud of her because she has become independent and can commute.  Ate A's tenacity in wiggling her tooth and she's now toothless, doesn't need to go to the dentist to have it removed.  And, Baby A despite her colds still has appetite and it just feels good to hug her. God has showered me with so much love for giving me 3 wonderful girls.  It feels good being a mommy. Happy Mother's Day to all you wonderful Mommies!

Creativity

Dawter T called me up and told me that Bebi A tore her art and made a monster out of the girl in the picture. I know that it's not being mean. Bebi A doesn't have a mean bone in her body. She just don't understand. I talked to Bebi A. Asked her to kiss and make up with her Ate, She did. Ate A told me that she went up to Dawter T and kissed her, then asked "Is this better, Ate?" Awwww... Dawter T's "smashed" art was one of her best. I was really impresed. If only I have taken a picture of it this morning. It was really beautiful. It was a portrait of a girl, by the way. I hope that Dawter T can still replicate it. I know that not all kids are alike. And, my daughters have their own endearing qualities. One's art is different from the other. Dawter T has the potential (not because I'm her mom, ok ok, it maybe because I'm her mom hahaha) and Bebi A's, well, let's just say abstract. Hehe.
