Look Ma, No More Keys

You know what we went through before we came in the new house we have, right? We were broken into, and the break-in brought a lot of doubts into my mind; why God allowed this to happen, this and that, and a lot more questions filled up my mind, but then again, who am I to blame Him, when all He ever did was to care for me and my family. The burglars took away but small things, a nice mattress foam for the master's bed, and an electric fan. I wonder if his conscience can sleep through the air he breathes created by the blow of the fan, and if he can soundly sleep in the mattress. Now, we are also at a fault here, one, I guess because we have not securely locked the house, I must argue though that we did, it was double locked, the doorknob and one outside padlock more secure than the doorknob. But what can we do if both the locks were professionally picked and the doorknob broken into pieces. Two, we have filled the house with stuffs that were enticing for the robbers to get, third,...

Gold Coins I don't have

Now, I have shown you once about my collection of coins and stamps and other stuffs including my love for postcards and other what-nots, and I have been in love lately with the quest for adding more to my collection. There is this site that i have been loving to check from time to time because this can help me in my love for adding more coins including gold coins in my collection. This site has proven to be legitimate and has given quality service in their gold coins and it is just my desire to have a gold coin too. You can have access to other gold denominations too, and by giving yourself the desire to have gold coins and getting one for yourself, you might just be in love with your collection of gold coins you need not stop there, get yourself more.

I was on TV!

During the launch of Productivity Olympics hosted by the Department of Labor and Employment together with the National Wages and Productivity Commission last June 16, I was very much glad to join because there were so many things I learned from their discussion, the media has asked a lot of interesting questions regarding productivity and they were all smiles when they ask their queries flashing their smiles in front of a Direct Tv where there was ABS-CBN and some other media networks holding their cameras. It's not that I was there because of the media and not to mention the food but I wanted to be seen on DirectTV too. Haha! Yes, and my wish was granted, the camera spotted me and there I was, seen on DirectTV with Ate Jinky Borela, a DOLE employee who invited us in the press conference. Now, this is good because this press conference they held was something that should really be shared on Direct TV , the Productivity Olympics for key generators in Sargen Area and creating an a...

The Evolution of a Home

Image
It was January 2, 2007. Hubby and I were talking about life and family. It dawned on us that we have to get ourselves the independence that we must have, the freedom from in-laws and the freedom from other people's nuisance, if there is. We did not have money that time, and when we went to the company who provides housing loan c/o Pag-ibig, they said they needed P5,000 for reservation of a house. Now it was after the New Year celebration, and our wallets are just too thin to ever contain that amount, I asked Hubby's cousin if she could lend me that amount in order for us to have that lot reserved. January 5, I have had the P5,000, reserved the house and lot. And goodness only knows what happened next. It was May 24, the letter stated Pag-ibig has granted us the house we were applying for, and come June 24, starts the 1st amortization of the house. We were so happy, but we kept it a secret from the folks, Hubby's mom is against the idea of having a loan of which you have to...

Visiting A Resort this Weekend

Today, June 12, is Independence Day and we have a lot of things to do in order to be prepared for the hectic week ahead of us, i have three schools to do ID pictorial with, on the side personal business. And i still have the manuscripts and 1 dictionary to copyedit. Now, since I want my kids and I to bond over the long weekend, I have decided to bring the kids to some beach resort like this Myrtle Beach Resort where we can laze in the sand and celebrate this year's Father's day even with some tight budget. I wonder if there are some people who will go and enjoy the Resort in Myrtle Beach . Or maybe bring some foods and some books to read and enjoy the nice view in Oceanfront Hotel Myrtle Beach. I hope that when i bring the kids to the resort, they will have a good time bonding with me and their Dad, and we can celebrate Father's Day earlier so we could also prepare for a hectic week of business days, so no office for me on Monday, Wednesday and Friday, haha!
