Counting Down...

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

It's 2 more days before my high school batch's big day...our Silver Jubilee. I just got an email from a friend that they had a successful motorcade today with a good turn-out. Big sigh of relief here. My former high school classmates are so-to-speak 'notoriously known' of not showing up on big events like reunions. Reasons vary but most just don't care much about it. But since this is a big event, we tried to contact as many as we could to participate. Having the internet on this day and time has played a great part in contacting even those who are no longer in the country.

I was planning in attending this reunion myself but things didn't work out the way we wanted to. Both the husband and I started looking for the best deals in air fare as early as after the holiday season last year up until early this month. There's a bunch of good deals out there not only in air fares but accommodations as well like turks and caicos hotels. At first, our reason for not pushing through with the trip was more on the financial side but as the date got closer, it was no longer the case. It's financially plausible already but time is not on our side anymore. Hubby cannot take off work because of deadlines. Me going home alone is not even an option for me so I made the decision of not being there. There will be more reunions...it may not be a Silver Jubilee but that's life, right?

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...
