Longing for...
I missed Christmas in the Philippines, the way my family celebrate it. Most of all, it’s the food that I longed for. I imagined my mother getting busy, weeks before the day so we have lots on food on the table. So is the same for the New Year. There’s the panic buying of round fruit. My grand mother used to prepare her own menu very early of the New Year’s Eve. And the fireworks and even fire crackers...
Fruit Bat
I am quite glad that Jens has taken into liking fruit like grapes, blue berries, rock melon, water melon, cherries, etc. These fruit are in abundance now so it’s fun to buy them (like picking in the orchard) plus they are cheap.I can feed him fruit for breakfast, morning tea, lunch, afternoon tea and dinner and he won’t complain. When the going gets tough – that is when he’s whinging, popping grapes...

The Long Weekend That Was
I didn’t ask for an extra day off from the office this season. I reckon, Christmas Day, Boxing Day and New Year’s Day are enough days for me to rest and play. We haven’t planned of going away so there’s no need for it anyway. I wanted to go somewhere but by the time we actually decided to book, there were no resorts in the coast that are available in our timeshare club. So I gave up.I truly appreciate...
Christmas Fun
How was your Christmas everyone? I’m sure it was fun. And I hope despite of it being commercialised every passing year, deep within we didn’t forget the true meaning of Christmas.Our family had Christmas lunch with the in-laws. Although, I missed the way Christmas is celebrated in the Philippines with my family, what we had here was closed to what I long for. Sharing laughter with family, eating good...

The expected time of restoration is tomorrow noon but we'll have to see.Mcj rose up early today so I also crept out of bed while Jens was still asleep to get dress...

What I Want for Christmas?
I wanted Ipod for my birthday but I had second thoughts. Been reading some medical stuff and found that wearing earphones to listen to music are not good for the ears. Affect the hearing overtime plus the bacteria that you get from them earphone. So, I didn't push for it. I just throw the idea at the...

Busy Weekend, As Usual
It's not entirely because, it's close to Christmas.Thursday, Jens had a chesty cough. Come Friday, his appetite is waning. Very unlikely of him who loves food. He just had an eye for custart and juice. He didn't eat much on Saturday, either. Then, he was running a temperature and dribbling. Cause obviously was teething. The same case on Sunday, so we took him to the clinic in the afternoon. He has...

Very Busy Weekend
I think the past weekend has been our the very busy since we got Jens. It is a consolation that I worked from home Thursday and Friday and then, today, I have spread-out some of the household chores in five days. I am not that flat-out doing them, though there are still some that needs to be done. But...

Movember
Movember was pretty big in our office. An officemate sent out an email to all encouraging to join. It is not limited to men at all. Women can join - maybe, put a fake mo and all. There were 5 enthusiastic men that jumped in the wagon, nonetheless, everyone was as excited as them. Everybody was checking...
Working From Home
Our company is moving office this weekend but the office furnitures, files, etc will be moved starting today so some of us has to work from home - including me. We have skeleton force to man the fort, though.It's a nice change even for just three days. No more getting up early and cramming to get ready. It's not like putting my feet up and take the home theater seating but definitely pleasant as there's...
