Long Weekend It Is!

-
Long weekends don't normally apply to us here. In our household, I mean. Since hubby has a small business of his own, he makes his own work schedule. They don't really observe the holidays that regular 9-5 jobs enjoy. But having a business of your own also has its perk like he can take off when needed without informing a boss or waiting for approval. He can take off anytime and come back anytime.

Anyway, this time it's different. They're actually observing this long weekend for reasons I'd rather not get into. I'm just glad he'll be home through the holiday weekend. He already spent part of it productively around here. He just planted a few more plants around the yard and is planning in getting some more tomorrow. Our flower bed is finally taking shape and it's all thanks to him. I try to help if he needs it but for the most part, I just let him do what he wants. He'd call me before he plants anything to see if I'm agreeable to it and if I say yes, then he'd go through with it while I'm in the comfort of our house. Ha!

We have no concrete plans for the long weekend. I'm sure we'll be spending most of it at home. We may head out to run errands at some point but that's about it. I'm just glad I can relax for a couple of days. To me, that's priceless.

Enjoy your long weekend everyone! Happy Labor Day to those who are on this side of the world...

Hello Huling! It's fun day! For me, long holiday means nothing if the family isn't together. We also had a long weekend prior to yours and likewise, weren't able to go out too. But we were all in the house, so ayos na rin yun para sa 'kin. Kahit saan basta magkakasama, masaya! I'm sure ganun din dyan sa inyo. Lalo na kay E na her Mom and Dad is around.. special ang araw!

Have an enjoyable holiday! Ingat!

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

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
