Weekend update

I took a leave last Friday because I wasn’t feeling well. My body has been aching since when I can’t remember anymore. So, my weekend started on a Friday.


Friday

I told Mon that I’ll just finish some work in the morning while he and Ayex stroll outside. I was a bit disappointed because our Internet connection is not cooperating with me. I was able to finish the things I have to get done at 2pm.

After that, I took care of Ayex while Mon and my in-laws left the house to look for a new place because our landlady is such a witch! Ayex and I took a stroll in the nearby streets. We bought turon and pancit palabok for our snacks. Ayex didn’t want to eat pancit so I looked for some biscuits. I was so amazed to see her feed herself with crackers for the first time! Our baby is now a big girl. *sniff*

Saturday

We went to check out the apartment Mon saw. We met the owner at 10am and finished at 11am. By that time, we already knew that we will arrive late in Las Piñas for Ayex’s vaccination. Fortunately, we were able to make it. Ayex had an anti-chickenpox shot. 2,500 stashed out of our savings. That’s ok since it’s for Ayex’s health.

When we arrived in my mom’s place, I called Dial-A-Spa for a home service. I scheduled a full body massage at 3pm. I also texted Ate Milette, our manikurista. By 5pm, I already have a happy feet and my whole body is still feeling some of the massage pains. It was all good. Thanks to Ma’m Helen for a great spa. Definitely not bad for a first time home service experience.

Sunday

My dad had lunch in my mom’s place. After that, we went to the mall because I said we have to buy Ayex some new pairs for shoes that would match her new clothes (birthday gifts). We were able to buy her 3 pairs of shoes including 1 expensive pair that I, myself, never had a chance to own. I’ll blog about it on a different post. Hehehehe!

After shopping, we heard a mass. Then, its back to reality. We arrived here in QC at around 8pm.

All in all, it was a tiring but fun-filled weekend.

Revisiting 2007 and planning 2008

I know this is late but as the saying goes, better late than never. Hehehehe.

I’ve been reading a lot of post by friends who evaluated their 2007 and I felt that I have to do the same so I can get a clearer picture of what I have to do for my 2008.

So how was my 2007? Defnitely 2007 was a year full of learning experiences for me. Giving birth on the same month last year was the so far the biggest life changing experience I had. Worklife – definitely one hell of a roller coaster experience! Our team lost 5 “pillars” and 1 newbie. Yes, and most of them left “unfinished work” in our plates. But they had to seek for greener pastures, so that’s fine. Since I gave birth last year, I can say that it paved way to a closer relationship with my family – but not with my friends since my priorities changed a lot – as in BIG TIME.

So what do I want to do this year?

Career

  • work harder (thinks of promotion)
  • involve myself in extra co-curricular activities in the office again
  • lessen my lates (leave na lang)

Family/relationships

  • catch up with friends
  • be closer to my mom and siblings
  • spend more time with Mon
  • continue mommying
  • reach out to my dad

Me, Myself and I

  • lose more weight
  • be closer to God
  • revive my fashion sense
  • save, save, and save
  • love myself more

My long-term wishlist

Yes, I have time to blog these days. Hahahaha!

I called them long-term because I’m not really sure when I’ll have them and because they’re no rush. But if I have them soon, I’ll be very grateful!

  • microwave oven
  • gas range (4 burner, preferably gas operated not electric)
  • laptop (preferably 17″)
  • new digicam (not necessarily SLR)
  • own house and lot
  • own small business
  • family trip to hongkong
  • pick-up truck for Mon

These are the only ones on the top of my head so expect an update soon. 🙂

Hi there! I'm Nicquee and this is my little space in this world wide web. I'm a mom of two and is happily married. I started this blog as literally my online journal where I dump my emotions. Over the years, I realized that there is more to write about. Feel free to browse through and I hope you find a thing or two that is relatable to you. If that happens, give me a shout-out!
