Organizing Medicines

And so we are back to regular program. Vacation is over, parties have been attended and school is here.

I think the packed schedule we had the past week, where we tried to squeeze in every activity we can accommodate, is finally taking a toll on me. My head is light and I feel dizzy.

And our bag of medicine in the refrigerator made me even dizzier! There are just too many medicines, cut into pieces, making it hard to read their names! I think it is high time that we organize these things. If we don’t, we might drink the wrong medicine or perhaps an expired one! That will surely cause more problem. Now, where in this city can I find affordable medicine organizers similar to those Howard-Medical.com healthcare carts?

Sunday Blast

I know it is Tuesday already and that my title is kind of inappropriate but just allow me tell you a short story how we spent our Sunday.

Ayex woke up early again because she dozed off as soon as she got seated in her car seat from our MOA trip the previous night. She did not wake up even if we carried her out of the car and into the bed. She was really tired. Hubby, me and Maxyn woke up at around 8:30, just in time to prepare ourselves for church. I insisted that we hear that mass because we have a busy afternoon.

Our first stop was at Jollibee Pag-asa. It is the new branch along Mindanao Avenue, near Trinoma and SM North. Niegel Zach, Elaine and Marlon’s son celebrated his 3rd birthday. Elaine and Marlon are based and Singapore and they just had came home to celebrate their son’s big day. It never fails to amaze me how fast food chains are able to run a party program in just two hours. By 2:30PM, we are on the road again for our next stop.

We were bound to East Raya Gardens where Frankie, Portia and Juven’s daughter is celebrating her 1st birthday. I was not able to print the map beforehand and I was panicking because hubby hates driving without knowing where to go. I guess all people who drives hate that. Thankfully, after an hour, we arrived at the place and the party has not started. Maxyn and Yex both recharged on our way and they were really energetic during the whole party. Ayex had a total blast! She joined almost all the contests and won most of the time! She really loved the Micky Mouse Clubhouse theme. I will post the pictures and detailed stories in our family blog soon.

I am glad I am so used to finding kids birthday gifts that I can do it over and over again. In December, we will be attending another party. First, I have to check my girls’ wardrobe first if there is anything I can use as their costume. It will be a Toy Story themed party!

Richwell Club The Christmas Kids Craze Schedule

Among many other growing up behaviors I am faced now with Ayex is her bili-mo-ko (buy me) attitude. I guess it is her age and it is what she sees at school.

Just last week, while waiting at the ballet school, I told the other moms that Ayex is into Barbie now. No, not the dolls, but the accessories. The bags, clothes, and the like. I want to give her what she is asking for but the practical mom in me does not want to give in. Hindi maatim ng puso ko na bumili ng PhP500+ worth na 1 piece of Barbie clothing. So I said, I will just save and save and save so that when the Richwell Kids Craze sale is here, we can buy all the Barbie stuff she wants. I told the moms about how great this sale is. I told them to bring along someone who can line up while they get their stash because lines at the cashier are really really long! I told them that it is best to come on the first few days because sometimes, they ran out of stocks. And I also told them to bring loads of cash because they do not accept credit card payments. And lo, just the other night, I saw fellow mom, Peh, post the schedule of the sale!

Here is the schedule from Richwell Club’s Facebook account.
