On Babies, Bath and Body, Work and Weekend

Babies

My future inaanak (future coz she is still not baptized) E is one month old today. How time flies... Then, my close friend B, will be delivering via c-sec on June 8 (more than 2 weeks away). Then, maybe 3 weeks or a month after, it will be my turn.

Bath and Body

I will not be talking about the fab products of Bath and Body (pre has been converted and actually using a cologne from their men's line). I am thinking about the time when I give birth and won't actually take a bath for 12-15 days (probably 12). Haha!

I actually deduced that the scent due to those glorious days are the ones that bonds the mother to their newborns. I am actually trying to placate myself here. I am dreading those days when sweat clings to my body and I wouldn't be able to wash it away with soap under the shower. When those days, I have to satisfy myself with bimpo, water and soap --- and probably alcohol. Then, I have to wear my pjs and socks even when the temperature is actually close to boiling point. I pray that July will be a cool month, if not, aggghhhh! I am horrified to think that Dawter T might comment with "Mommy naman --- whoo, baho!"

Work

A conflict was born yesterday due to high-pitch and finger pointing. I won't take it from somebody who won't try to understand and just flare up when he feels like it. No way!

Weekend

With the weekend a few hours away, I am actually praying for peace the whole of the afternoon.

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!

Busy

Bebi A : Daddy, can you make me an airplane? Daddy : Later Ava, I am busy Bebi A : You always say you're busy, you're hurting my feelings... She then put her face down on the sofa. Drama queen!
