Super Mom Sked

Got too much schedule for today. First we’re the host of our weekly bible study so I got to cook for 50-60 people. Well I’ve already ordered 6 kilos of meat and did my grocery for the ingredients. I’ve cooked pork hamonado, a favorite here in our house and also our specialty. I just did the unrolled hamonado with mouth watering pineapple sauce made thick with cheese, pineapple tidbits, sliced bread and cornstarch. I’m finished at lunchtime and my judges (my kids and Mom) rated my menu with flying colors lol!

Next, I got to run for the 3pm meeting in Ruth’s school with the graduation committee. Ms. President asked me to preside the meeting because she’s caught up in traffic. The meeting was finished at 4:30pm and I went home with my two girls to rush again to submit my weekend meme entry before arranging everything needed for the church bible study dinner. Lastly, when everything was checked and completed I finally went to see DH half on my way to the church. We went back home before 12 and I finally finished my very hectic schedule. More again tomorrow!

A Life Worthy to Live For

People have their own weaknesses and strengths and we should be able to identify it on ourselves in order to cope up with life’s daily challenges. Handling life’s difficulties always depend on the person’s capabilities to deal with it. We have our own ways of managing our problems. Some seek refuge by turning to God and asking for His spiritual guidance through prayers. Many survive from the help of family, relatives and friends but few keep their problems inside and turn to drugs or alcohol to forget their anxieties. They don’t want others to take pity on them and believe that with the help of drugs they will forget the bad things that happened in their lives.

I have a relative whose long journey with drug addiction has led him to a life with no direction. He has forsaken his family and made his life miserable. Several years ago he has been sent to a treatment center like that of Michigan Drug Rehab and we all thought that he’ll change his ways after his 8-month treatment. He changed for a month or two but after that he returned to his vices because he has some friends which coaxed him into taking too much alcohol. We’ve always been aware that his friends are bad influence on him and that time they succeeded on making him addicted again but this time he became addicted to alcohol.

His immediate family is thinking if they will return him to a drug rehabilitation center to give him recovery program like what Michigan Drug Rehabilitation is doing on their patients but we found out that the cause of his addiction is dealing too much on his frustrations in life. That’s the common problem of people involved in addiction they pity themselves too much that they resort to drugs and alcohol just to forget their miserable life.

The result of my observation shows that some youth who find themselves hooked on drugs and alcohol are those who are seeking special attention from their parents and loved ones. They don’t think that what they’re doing is a problem because they’re having fun with it. The case aggravates because sometimes their families don’t want to let these things out in the open because of embarrassment for the family. But the truth is it’s them who can really help their children who are in the wrong side of the road. By letting them know that addiction is a problem they can very well ask them to let them undergo treatment on trusted rehabilitation center like Drug Rehab in Michigan who can give the proper counseling, behavioral therapies and medical treatment they badly needed. Helping our loved ones change their lives for the better will not only make their lives worthy to live for but happy and peaceful as well.

Readying Car for Next School Year

It’s another year again and next month we’ll have to deal with renewal of our car’s registration We’re thinking of how we’re going to have it registered with its current status. Anyway we still have two weeks to finalize our decision. We have our quotations now for the complete repair and it spells expenses. Although it’s still in repair status I’m searching for an affordable auto insurance quote so when the car returned to its normal running condition we’ll be ready with the processing of insurances and registration. How I wish the car will be ready for the next school year opening of classes as I’ll have three students on three different schools.

Fully-Booked Schedule

I have plenty of scheduled activities tomorrow concerning the school of my kids. I have PTA Officers meeting and another meeting with graduation committee. Janet gave me the list of people to write letter to complete the necessary documents for the venue and the program. I have to make 3 letters for the administrative officer of the village we’re renting the venue from, another letter informing the Superintendent of our chosen venue for graduation and the last one for the high school principal where we will be hiring cadets for the graduation ceremony.

I have to remind myself that I also need to get some cardboard display quotation just in case we’ll need some. Janet and I are lucky to have each other always as a team because she’s the president of the graduation committee and I’m the secretary. As always I’ll have to do all documentations but its fine as long as I’m only in the background, I’m good at being an assistant.

Tell Someone You Love Them

Myspace Love Graphics Quotes

I once read an old story about two friends who lives far apart. They thought of visiting each other but the busy life they have prevented them from seeing each other for years. The promise that they will visit each other has been forsaken and never materialized until one day one of them learned that her friend has died already and because of that she will find the time now to visit the wake of her dearest friend. She never said that she loves her though she’d been planning to do that when they meet again. Upon seeing her friend lying dead in her funeral she regretted the time that has passed in their lives when they’ve been slaved by their work and busy schedule. So if you want to say ‘I love you” to your family and friends say it when there’s time, say it now! It’s always good to let them know you care!

Early Summer Heat

With the sun’s scorching heat damaging our skin everyday I have no choice but to lessen going out in the middle of the day except for the important things that can’t be missed. Since summer has come so early bringing us the high temperature during the day I told my kids to stay out of the sun in school on their breaks. It might bring some rashes and allergy on their skin when they exposed themselves.

There are lots of skin disorders that may occur when we exposed ourselves without protection. I won’t be surprised if one day my little boy will be asking for allergy relief because sometimes he’ll run into our backyard and play. He’ll stop when I caught him and he just love the catching game especially when it’s me and him playing lol! He’s really a handful at times! And I love him so much!

:Today's Flowers #81 and MYM#2

Click the images to enlarge

These two shots were taken on the garden beside my former office in Libis where the owner lend the place to a family and they built a wonderful garden of vegetable and flower plants. I even bought some plants for my Mom. I missed the place because it's the first thing that I get to see before reaching our building and these beautiful Española flowers (am I right?) were the ones near the road. I have to brave myself before the family's watchdog before I had these shots! Anyway they held the dogs while I take the shots but I'm really not comfortable if they're not tied lol!

It's my granny's favorite flowers and we used to put some of these kinds in her grave when I was young.

Happy Monday!

He’s so Fond of Amusement Parks


My little boy always wants to talk about his educational tour especially our visit to his favorite amusement park. He always talks about the exciting rides, the tree house, the funny mascots & characters and all the fun he had experienced there. He asked me if we could go back there sometime and I told him we will with his two siblings. Of course his two sisters want to go there also and have fun with the rides he’s talking about. When my friend JennyL went on a trip abroad and had some Disney vacations she told us her exciting time there. She showed her tons of pictures when she was there with her family. Since that time Josh always ask me when we could possibly visit Disneyland. He likes to see all Disney characters that he love to watch on cable tv. He’s really hopeful that we could arrange a vacation there.
