I need a change in environment. I am no longer as productive in this setup I have at home as I was in the past. I think interacting with people other than the little girl and my dad is also needed.
And I am thinking of trying out a nearby cafe with free wifi to be my first change in environment. I am not sure I can be productive there but there will be lots of inspiration around. Or I can probably try the mall! Hmm…
I just need a new place to work in.

I was getting headaches just from looking at my corner at home. There was so much clutter in it! So many papers, books, bags, boxes and other stuff. A few days ago I finally decided to start de-cluttering my home-office corner. I moved boxes of books into another corner of the house and threw away some stuff that I didn’t need. I also organized receipts and important documents into a expandable folder.
Now my home-office corner feels like a… home-officer corner again!
No more paper bags hanging on the wall. No more papers and books piled up beside me. The papers are now in their proper folders while the books are inside transparent plastic boxes. No more bags lying around. And even the computer tower is clean of dust and little stuff from the little girl.
I feel like a can breathe properly again.

I’ve been sick for the past three days now. Flu
I hate that I cannot work because of it but I guess this is my body’s way of telling me to slow down and rest. And that’s what I’ve been doing for the past three days… resting and doing almost nothing but lie down and sleep.
I just wish this flu will go away now. I want to go back to work and I don’t want to feel weak anymore.

I have tons of things to do now but all I can think of is taking a break for at least a few hours to go to the spa and have an aromatherapy whole body massage. Ahhh… I can already feel my body melting from the massage and my mind emptying of all the worries and what-nots.
Maybe later, I’ll see if I can sneak off after sending Hazel to school.

Hahaha!
It is common for us Filipinos to greet each other Merry Christmas on September 1st. Why? Well, September signals the arrival of the ‘ber months. And we Filipinos start celebrating Christmas by putting up decors and such as early as September.
Merry Christmas!
Here’s hoping the rains will cease pouring down so we can enjoy this weekend.

I don’t have to be perfect. All I have to do is show up and enjoy the messy, imperfect and beautiful journey of my life. It’s a trip more wonderful than I could have imagined.

But it would have been great if life is a little bit more perfect, don’t you think? I would have loved it if there are less worries and more fun.

I am updating blogs now. At the same time, I am trying to finish a book I am reviewing. I am writing some articles as well. Then there’s the book A Game of Thrones calling out to me. I also need to organize the stuff around my desk or I might be swallowed whole by the mess!
I think I will stay this way until close to end of the year. And then it’s a new path for me
I can already feel it. There’s no turning back anymore. It is not just a desire but a NEED to go back and start earning more again. Writing is no longer giving me the big amount I am used to month after month. It is still sufficient but I have bigger plans in store for me and the family. Those plans need funding. I also want to increase my savings. All of my plans will come to fruition if I go back. So even if I am scared of venturing out into the dog-eat-dog world, it is time to wear the battle gear, bring out the license and once again immerse myself in office politics and ass-kissing!
I think it will be a crazier schedule once I go back! I really am crazy for doing this to myself!

I’ve been in and out of the house for the past several days already that I feel so darn tired when I got home last night. I think weekend is calling out to me. I will try to get as much rest as I can these next two days. If not, I don’t know where I’ll get the energy for next week which will be more hectic for me.
Happy Friday everyone! Here’s hoping we’ll all get enough rest and relaxation this weekend.

I’ve been getting in and out of sickness these past couple of months. I think it’s close to two years that I’ve been like this. My sisters and I discussed it and we all thought that the sore throats and eye strains have to do something about it.
I stopped eating too much sweets years ago. So whenever I get to eat more than a small bite of chocolate or drink a glass of sweet drink, my throat gets irritated. It gets sore right away. Even if I drink liters of water after. Whenever I suffer from a sore throat, chances are a flu is not far away. The same thing happens when I feel that I’m straining my eyes too much. I am online most of the time. I think I abuse my eyes far too much so it’s taking revenge by giving me headaches. I also suffer from sinusitis from time to time.
I was down with the flu last weekend. Fever’s gone now but cough and cold still here
I hate being sick!

Yes, that’s me! Sunburned! Toasted! Roasted!
It hurt like hell but that’s the price I had to pay for soaking in the waters of Laiya, Batangas from 8 in the morning to 5 in the afternoon! Para akong nagtrabaho maghapon! Hehehe!
I really enjoyed that family outing. It was so much fun! I even had henna tattoo of a whimsical moon with a face. I am hoping that next year will be just as fun!
