Tunes and Treats.
DS did well on their class’ performance during the school’s Halloween program. I have watched their practice in school and I got worried since he wasn’t participating on their dance. He would participate though on the presentation of the other classes. I told him days before the program that he should dance and sing and […]
Christmas Gifts Ideas.
The following is a paid review:
I am seriously running out of Christmas gift ideas. I need to decide as I know my husband will not be very pleased if I drag him from one store to another just looking for gifts. I do not want to give the usual, generic gifts. I want something the […]
Furry Happy Monsters Shiny Happy People.
The Power Pups, where my son belongs, will dance to this song during their Halloween program in school tomorrow. I wish my son joins the group. He actively participates with all the dance numbers of other classes but doesn’t do much during their own presentation. Why oh why. We are bribing him with toys just […]
It’s Christmas.
I was looking at the Christmas countdown calendar on the internet and it said there that by October, one must have created his Christmas card list and must have bought or at least ordered the cards. October is going to be over in a matter of days and I haven’t completed my list yet. Since […]
Play Baseball.
The following is a paid review:
We registered our son for their school’s baseball team. I was so excited, more especially for the photo opportunities during practice and actual games. However, it didn’t push through as there were only a few who registered. Probably because the practice will be on weekends and it can be exhausting […]
Ten Thoughts On Whole Living.
I am loving these ten thoughts from My Inspiration Lounge.
1. Treat your dreams as you would a garden: Give them room to grow.
2. Counter a dark mood with a dose of sunshine. Get outside and walk.
3. Invite, don’t force, healthy movement by taking on the right kind of physical challenge.
4. To see real results, sometimes […]
Today.
I have happily crossed out 3 from my 9 list of things to do. I hope to accomplish more in the next few days so I can fully enjoy DS’ school break.
We promised to bring him to Fun Ranch in Alabang during the break. Of course, we need to visit the cemetery, too. My […]
10 Thoughts On Whole Living.
1. For the healthiest food, eat close to the source.
2. Stay tuned in to emotions. They connect you to the moment.
3. When you feel at ease with yourself, you become truly free.
4. Stop talking yourself out of the life you want most.
5. Style has less to do with what you wear and more to do […]
New Outlet Stores.
We went to Tagaytay last weekend. We then had our merienda in Conti’s in Nuvali on our way home. We checked out the newly-opened National Bookstore in the area but there weren’t much children’s books to select from. So we transferred to Paseo De Sta. Rosa. And I discovered that they have two new outlet […]
Five Simple Rules To Be Happy.
1. Free your heart from hatred.
2. Free your mind from worries.
3. Live simply.
4. Give more.
5. Expect less.
I came across this really simple, yet so true, list from here. So I thought of sharing it here, too.
A Poem.
My son’s class will be reciting a poem for their Halloween presentation in school. So we parents are tasked to help our kids to memorize the short poem. It only has a few lines but I have a feeling that it isn’t going to be easy. Taking GMAT prep courses would be so much easier […]
Manila Ocean Park.
Sharing some photos from my son’s class field trip at Manila Ocean Park. The trip included the two pups classes. He was excited with the field trip as he knew he could to SM Mall of Asia afterwards. However, he wasn’t that fond of the tour. He would frequently leave the group and go where […]
Cost Cutting.
It looks like we will be cutting back on my son’s Christmas gifts this year. I didn’t order any gifts for him online and we just decided to buy what’s available here. Besides I originally planned to just give him books, but the husband suggested that he should have at least one toy. So some […]
Fully Booked.
After their Museum Day in school, we went to my IL’s place to check on them. The house is livable, compared to last week, but still needs a LOT of cleaning up. Plus the streets are still filled with trash. We brought them our old {as in old!} TV set, a radio, electric fan and […]
No Carrots.
DH couldn’t find carrots from the two grocery stores he went to. Too bad, that’s my favorite, or at least I’m trying to like it, at the moment. I have been buying carrots like crazy as I am juicing them. You would think Bugs Bunny lives in our house with the number of carrots I […]
