Tough Day

It started in the morning. I was late (as always), I just came in and heard my desk phone ringing, I run to catch but to no avail. So I dialed our department secretary's number. It was not her but I got scolded for being late today and yesterday hahaha I was kinda pissed with the thought of its double standardness (is there such a word?), she who came in at 1215pm has the gal to tell me that she didn't take her lunch thus she know that me and my friends came in very late. So I just hmmmed and ahhhed. I tried not to let it get to me but the thing is, my day didn't start out right.

Later that morning, she called me again to inform me that my boss has instructed her to print my weekly reports. And she just wants to let know --- that my boss is watching me! Excuseeeeeeeeee me! She later on asked about my teammate A and told me what the new manager said, blah blah, I told her to ask me directly since the new manager is not the one communicating with A. Of all the things I hate, is for people to talk behind somebody's back. I will appreciate it more if you just tell it to my face! So that took the fun out of my lunch time.

Mid afternoon, my boss called me to configure his Blackberry but it got some problem. Since I was still liasing with Sister C to follow up with the TelCo, I brought it along with me while I take my time-off (I needed to go somewhere). An hour after, I received phone calls as to where I am, where's my boss' BB. OMG! That same secretary knows that I am on time-off but chose not to understand my email to her and blam! My boss whacked me for bring the BB along even though my intention was to configure it while I was away. I wanted to hit 2 birds in one stone! But, I was the one who got hit with WHY's?! And, a sermon about lack of understanding of customer expectation! Crap! That really riled me! If I didn't want to serve him, my customer, right. I would have given back the BB to him and told him that the Telco has not activate it.

Whew!

Now, I just want to cry. Seriously, to release this stress. But, tear ducts seem to tell me that it's not worth it!

I just pray that tomorrow is a better day! But, I will probably have a continuation of that sermon about lack of understanding of customer expectation. Please pray for me.

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.
