Second Half of 2013

-
It officially starts today, right? Again...how time flies!

This is going to be a short work week for those on this side of the globe because it's Independence Day on Thursday. It's going to be a 4-day weekend for most. Some are already on vacation actually...but not us. I don't think we have any plans for July 4th itself. I actually just realized yesterday while we were sitting on a restaurant that it's this week. Duh! What gave it away [to me] are the firework stalls/vendors all over the place. We don't really do anything special on that day so it kind of slipped my mind.

Anyhooo...weekend just passed. We were busy over the weekend around here doing our own little thing. We didn't really plan in going anywhere since the weather has been 'moody' lately. One minute it's sunny, then it's raining the next minute. But the little one kept asking since Saturday the same question over and over again: Are we going anywhere this weekend? She kept getting the usual response from me...I'm not sure. Her reason for asking? She wanted to wear one of the dresses we got her last weekend. We got her I think 5 different dresses that she could wear around the house. But of course she chose dresses that are normally worn outside. They're not fancy dresses...just not house clothes. Anyway, I told her to wear the dress on Sunday whether we're going out or not. They're 'supposed' to be house clothes anyway. She did. And so the questions kept coming. Are we going somewhere today? I finally said, maybe we can go out to dinner. She was ecstatic to say the least. So even if it was pouring, we headed out to the nearest restaurant at around 5 PM for dinner last night so she could wear her 'fancy dress' outside of the house. Like she said and I quote: I didn't dress up like this for nothing. And she's not even a teenager yet. Help?

Huling, ano ka ba?!Hahaha.. Your anakis is already a young lady! She may not be 13 yet but children this age and time are more mature than their real age. Kaya accept the fact now na dalaga na at di na bata si E. Lol!

At least di nasayang ang lovely new dresses ni young lady. Nairampa pa rin ng tunay. Haha..

Hope you're enjoying your weekdays. Dito, busy sa mga follow-up check ups sa doctor. Ingat dyan!

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
