Another Monday with the Blues

For the past few weeks, whenever I hear news that my friends' flat rental fee has gone up, my chest will tighten a bit with panic. I am not ready to move, no matter how hot (literally) our place is, it is still home to us. I know, I know. I went through this 2 years ago, the "I can't let go" my current flat part but really...

I spoke with the niece of the owner and she told me that her uncle wants to rent the flat at $%$%$ --- market price, that is! Well, even if it's in a prime community, I am not crazy to pay that kind of amount.

So we're house hunting once again. Though it's a good 2 months away. It's never too early to look for one and to pack your things and to reminisce memories that has happened while you're under that roof.

Hate ko rin maglipat kasi bukod sa ma-senti ako eh ang daming hassles sa paglilipat.

Anyway, good luck. Hope you find a better flat.

thanks, litcoo! sana nga po makakita kami ng ok na bahay sa ok na presyo hehehe tanging consolation po namin ay sana mahangin na sa lilipatan namin dahil yung bahay po namin ngayon ay parang nasa oven pag tag-init.

naku galing din kami sa situation na ganyan. hirap talaga humanap ng maganda at swak sa budget. Nawala pagka-senti ko nung makuha namin flat namin ngayon. Super-mahangin sya kahit walang aircon (pero pag may handaan, hindi kaya ng powers ng electric fan.

Mas napabuti ang paglipat namin ngayon. Wala na nga lang kaming swimming pool pero happy kami sa location at sa laki ng flat na nakuha namin. Good luck!

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!

Me! Me! Me!

Last night, I created an LO using the picture below when Bebi A happened to see it. She touched it and said "Me?!" "No, it's me!" I told her. It was really me when I was Bebi A's age. The similarities will not be able to deny that Bebi A is my daughter hahaha I just hope that my bubbly and sunny bebi will not get the mom's sumpong(s). This is one of the few baby pics that I have. I used to have 3 baby albums but one of the worst floods that hit Pinas also took away my memories. Now, this is Bebi A.

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.
