Power Outage!

-
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

We had a power outage here in our area. It started at around 5:30 and lasted for 2 hours. It started with rain then thunder and lightning.

As when the husband was pulling in the driveway, the thunder and lightning got really bad. A few minutes after he got in, the post across the street, in front of our house was hit by lightning! That's when the power went out!

It's a good thing it's summer. It means that 8 PM here is still bright...like 5 or 6 PM in the Philippines. So we didn't need any candle or flashlight..we only had to open the blinds and voila...it's bright again.

We're back online now but I it's still a bit gloomy outside. Hopefully, the power will stay on.

You Belong With Me...Little One's Version

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ This is the little one singing with the new Taylor Swift song called: You Belong with Me ... acapella She's a big TS fan right now so that's all I'm hearing around the house lately. The little one's video is far from perfect but I'm a proud Mama. She recorded this all on her own so pardon the little 'booboos/mistakes' she made while recording/singing. Enjoy! If you're not familiar with the song, here's the link to the official video .

Paid Blogging....

 ...is that still even a thing today? I stopped blogging actively several years ago...so now I'm like starting all over again.  I don't even know what to post anymore. A lot has changed since I started this blog in 2008. Yep, that's how long ago it's been. Back then I just wanted to write whatever. I was already a WAHM - Work at Home Mom when I started this blog and that's how my blog title came about. I started doing work-at-home jobs as early as 2002. I had a handful of different jobs I was juggling at that time so blogging was just really something I did during my free time. After a while I did paid blogging. I did that for a few years. I tried to do it as much as I could but my 'real' jobs had to be my priority so my blogging had to take a back seat. In retrospect, that may be the reason why I slowly lost interest in doing it. I tried going back to it every now and then, but the 'mojo' is just not there so I stopped altogether but opted to keep m...
