About Your Money...

-
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Back where I grew up, life is really simple. Majority of the people in our community did not have bank accounts, credit cards, insurance policies or a vehicle of their own. This is still true up until today. People there still pay everything in cash or get small credits in variety stores if they don’t have the money. People there thrive and they only worry very little. That is the kind of life that I really want, simple and worry-free. But I am no longer in that place and where I am, life is much more complicated. I guess complication came from the fact that I grew up.

Since I grew up and I now live in a place where life is so different, I need to do some adjustments if I want to survive. Things are done differently where I am right now. Like the need for Credit Cards. Yes, I use ‘need’ because I was told it’s important to have a good credit history. Aside from credit cards, car insurance is another must-have nowadays. Of course since we drive our own car then Car Insurance is a necessity. Both these things are new to me so I really need to research them before I apply for both. This is how I found “About Your Money”.

“About Your Money” is an online comparison service where customers can go to, well, compare any personal financial service like credit cards and insurance. One can find things like Home Insurance Quotes at this site. That means there is no need to visit different home insurance company websites because “About your Money” probably has the information one needs. By using this site, one will not only save time but most of all, money. And just like what this site says, it’s your money, it’s your choice.

My parents used to have a passbook for their little savings before,they only managed to save Php360.00 until we grew big,I mean the family.WE were only 3 then became 9, years later.Things are pretty hard.My father nowadays only managed to earn Php60.00 a day,enough for 2 kilos of rice and for the viand.That's how hard life is there.

Pero there seemed to be a problem.Kuryente po is Php32 a month nga lang eh.May fridge tsaka washing machine eh nagka sira-sira nalng di ginagamit.Sanay sa kahirapan eh,hikhik.

Tag po pala,dami ko pang sinabi noh?hikhik...

L-O-S-T. I guess that about sums up how I'm feeling right now...with blogging anyway. I don't even know how to start this post. 😕 It's been almost 2 years since I last posted. It's not that I have nothing to write about. I have plenty but I seem to have lost interest in blogging. I thought  at first that it was just a phase. I thought it would only last for a few days but days turned into weeks then months then years and I still haven't blogged. Nothing sparked my interest to blog so I just didn't. Not even paid posts lured me back. I even considered deleting it altogether. I felt like I'm wasting my money paying for the domain name. But I can't do it so I just keep on paying. I can't seem to let go of the domain 'Pinay Wahm' because I got it when not many Moms were able to make a living or earn in the comforts of home. I also have a lot of personal posts here that when I want to get details about something that happened in my life I can

Simple Life....

When we visited my family in 2012 we didn't actually spend as much time as I would have liked with most of them. That's because we planned a road trip which took most of our time. Since we were on the road majority of the stay, we weren't able to spend as much time in my childhood home. During our recent trip, that's exactly what we did. We spent a lot of time in my childhood home. We actually stayed home too much that we got bored after a while. But it was somehow an 'eye opener' for me as well as my significant other. On his part, he was finally able to experience 'real summer' back there. Both trips happened in April. But since we were in an air-conditioned car most of the time during our 2012 trip, we didn't really feel how hot it was. This time around, the air-con was only in our room. As soon as we stepped outside, it's hot. As a result, the AC in our room stayed on the whole day because it served as a reprieve from the heat. Every time

Finally finished the project I started a couple of months ago...at least. Now I'm a happy [and a bit sore] camper. I finished putting the mulch this morning mainly because I don't want to give the weeds another chance to invade the flower beds again...at least for a few months anyway. I think I had to pull out weeds twice before to prepare them for the mulch. I thought hubby would have the chance to put it down but his work just wouldn't let him so I decided to do it myself a few weeks ago. So why did it take me weeks to finish 2 and a half flower beds? I was just taking my time I guess. There was no hurry so I took my time. Now that I'm done with that 'project' I'm off to continue another one that I started about 2 weeks ago...decluttering my home office. The weather here is as unpredictable as...the weather? Last week it was raining almost everyday as predicted by the meteorologists around here. The time the rain would fall was the unpredictable part tho
