No, this post is not about the daytime drama that was so popular in the 90s.  I never watched it, but it was popular enough that even I knew of its existence back then. This post is about, literally, when the world turns…and turns… and turns. Yes.  Vertigo.  My old time friend.  Er, enemy, actually.continue…

Since having my baby, I haven’t had the will to sit and read through any book.  That’s almost 7 months, folks! With all the busyness and stress that comes with having an infant, plus 3 more kids, I couldn’t justify taking the time to sit and read – when there’s toys to be picked up,continue…

The 4th of July is upon us.  I feel like summer barely started and it’s already July! Some people will opt to stay home and do the traditional backyard BBQ.  (That’ll be us!)  We’ll just watch the fireworks on TV, thanks! Others will join the community and park themselves at the local park (pun intended) and watchcontinue…

So I was going to post about how I felt after watching the Pacquiao versus Mayweatherfight last night… But I’ve decided to live and let live. I was highly disappointed and considered ranting about how Mayweather hugged and ran his way to victory without actually boxing… But I won’t talk about that today.  After all, itcontinue…

Yes, it’s Star Wars Day today.  And if you’re a fan of this iconic film, then you know that the title for my post is a pun on “May the Force Be With You.” Speaking of force, let’s talk about energy.  After all, according to Merriam-Webster, force is “…strength or energy exerted or brought to bear…” Energy, my dear friends, is exactly whatcontinue…

I like my perfumes smelling good but don’t leave holes in my pocket. I like them to be in pretty bottles. Actually, as long as I like the smell, and I can afford it at the time, I buy it. Wait.  Let me add to that. The husband must approve the scent too. Oh.  And approve the price too. That’scontinue…

It’s a given that I love God, my husband, my kids, my parents, and my brother.  (Yes, in that order.) And there’s no denying I love my grandparents and all my relatives. On another level, I could declare that I love such things as reading, volleyball, art, and Filipino, Vietnamese, and Italian food. I alsocontinue…

Well, I’ve recently started an at-home-job that, although doesn’t pay much, actually pays. Seriously.  I was so thrilled to get my first paycheck in almost 6 years! So these days, I’m more motivated to spend my computer time on something that I know will generate income. Because every little bit of money is totally welcomecontinue…

While I’m all for technology, I still love the feeling of writing by hand on good, old-fashioned paper. I always have my little pouch of favorite writing instruments with me. One mechanical pencil and six, super fine, multicolored Sharpie pens. Yes. I love color. I’m one of those girls who write color-coded notes.  The notes in my calendar/planner arecontinue…

We pass her by all the time. Sometimes we wave and yell hello, even though we know that we’re too far to be heard. Still, she always looks so friendly and majestic as she grazes within the confines of her owner’s estate. Head down, slowly working her way from one end of the fence tocontinue…
