THE SUNDAY CURRENTLY -27-

work hard, party harder :)) i'm back! i'm sorry i haven't done any TSC last sunday because we were preoccupied slash busy with stuffS. sabi ko babawi nalang ako next sunday, but the jowa is adamant (wow big wurd + am i using it right? lol) so here's another TSC (on a tuesday) from yours truly~

CURRENTLY

Reading

my twitter timeline. kanina pa ako scroll nang scroll. it's nostalgic to see old posts from my current & old fandom. reminiscing yan~ hehehehe

Writing

TSC 27 on a tuesday. again. because i ctrl+z something. ugh.

Listening

when i look at you by miley cyrus #lss

Thinking

of what to pack next? hmm i've pack some of my (tops) clothes na. so what to pack next? :)) bottoms? and sheets? my shoes? thinking of what to buy next, too. mirror, computer table, another shelf, side table? hahaha. hindi madali mag bahay-bahayan please~ ang daming naiisip na bilin, or ayos ng room. hahahaha

Smelling

amethyste. i need to buy a new perfume

Wishing

that time moves faster. pwede bang 26 na? kasi i still need to make ayos my stuff and make lipat pa. i wish it'll be easy. the packing part. i really don't like the hassle part of moving hahahaha wishing to find all the stuff we need in our room din.

Hoping

for better days to come. peaceful & healthy days, too. hoping we settled to our new home sooner, rather than later. hoping for a smooth transition~

Wearing

semi-complete uniform lol

Wanting

to just lay in bed and sleep all day. parang pagod ang katawang lupa ko. o ang productive lang talaga namin ng jowa ko last weekend? wanting to stay in dxb last night, too. my heart breaks a little pag nagsasabi jowa ko ng, "wag ka na umuwi (sa auh)" uwu onting tumbling nalang~

Needing

we need to catch up on some ZzZ's :)) paano. party pa more :)) we need to buy more stuffS for our space, too. time & money nalang kulang. we need more time & money!!! :)))))))

Loving

our little get-together last sunday! group of six turned into eight, then ten. buffet dinner kami sa rocky's kasi may lechon kawali + bar na siya, so direcho na for happy hour. we ate, drank, laughed, danced, sang all night! the longest time i've been inside a loud establishment. so many firsts with this one. i love the fact that i'm experiencing so many first with this one <3 ang saya lang din ng bonding with her friends + new friends. it's nice to unwind. tumatanda na kami. pero ang saya :)

Feeling

happy & contented. contentment! sabi 'yan sa homily nung nagsimba kami last sunday. you need contentment in your life (+pansit daw for long life. hahaha) be happy with what you have. i couldn't ask for more ;)

loved din.. sa mga simpleng bagay na simple lang sa iba, pero grabe ung impact for me. for someone so clumsy, sanay na akong pinapagalitan. kaya pag ang messy ko or what, hinahanda ko na ung galit niya. lol. pero more on concern naman sa part niya. baka madumihan ako, or mapaso, or masaktan. hayst. kilig ako. luh? :))

Manifesting (new one. lol)

new job that is very near to our new home! financial abundance for all of us! manifesting a great august, and a great year ahead!

dami ko na talagang ebas hahaha tigil-tigilan ko na 'to :))

April 02,2024

Maraming nangyari last month.

Nung March 15- Friday night, bumyahe na tayo papuntang Pampanga then direcho na sa Vigan. Tumae k na sa bahay bago pa tayo bumyahe. Pagdating sa pampanga, natulog ka na rin after mong dumede, then lipat sa carseat at direcho pa rin ang tulog mo.

Ang haba ng byahe. Thankful sa carseat kasi mabigat ka na at baka mangalay tayong parehas.

7am dumating tayo sa Baluarte. Tulog ka pa rin. After mga 1-hour nagising ka na and pumasok na tayo sa zoo. Mainit. Nag-oobserve ka lang. Patingin tingin sa animals pero mukang hindi ka excited.

Nagpunta na tayo sa Hidden Garden para mag lunch. Hindi kasarapan ang food. Pero pinakain kita ng kanin at marie biscuit.

Pagdating sa hotel, nagpark muna tayo at dun tayo natulog kasi 1pm p lang at 2pm ang check in.

Sa room, nag play muna tayo. Then maya-maya din nakatulog na. Sobrang pagod.

7pm nagkayayaan na tayong lumabas papuntang calle crisologo at dun na mag-dinner.

Sobrang saya mo nung gabi na yun. Pinaliguan din kita kaya preskong presko ang pakiramdam mo nun. Hindi na tayo nag-lakad sa calle crisologo dahil umiyak ka na. Ibig sabihin inaantok ka na.

Pagdating sa room, nakatulog ka na agad. Si Daddy naman lumabas saglit para makipag-inuman saglit. Tayo, natulog na. Di ko na nga namalayan si Daddy na bumalik.

Kinabukasan, umalis ng maaga sila daddy, taybe, alvin, ryan, regi at badet papuntang calle crisologo para magorder ng jumbo empanada, longganisa at bagnet. Bumuli sila ng bagnet at longganisa sa palengke.

Habang wala sila, andun tayo sa pool kasama ang cousins at titas mo. Nagenjoy ka naman sa pag-tampisaw pero mainit. Pumasok na tayo sa room. Maya-maya pinaliguan na kita.

Then, si miguel pinaliguan na rin. Naka-tulog pa tayo. Then at 12nn, nagcheckout na.

Bumalik tayo sa calle crisologo para mag-lunch. Dun tayo sa plaza. Nag-order ako ng bagnet na halos puro taba nakakasuya. Pinakain uli kita ng marie at kanin.

Bumalik tayo sa parking para pa-dedein ka. Sumama sila tayres, miguel, alvin at papa. Magkakahiwalay na sasakyan. Nakapahinga ka at maya maya dumaan sila regi na dala na yung empanada.

Nagdecide kami ni daddy mo na maglakad-lakad na rin.

Nag-picture. Then nag-starbucks para makabili ng ice. Saglit lang tayo. Then bumalik na rin sa sasakyan.

Nag-pagas muna tayo at dun ka na nga tumae. Sakto. Ang dami pa naman.

Nakatulog ka uli sa byahe.

Nagmamadali na tayo non. Sobrang pagod at antok na ng lahat. Gusto na nating makauwi. Tumatakbo tayo ng 120.

Huminto saglit sa bilihan ng danggit. Bumili tayo ng 3-1/4 na danggit at 4-1/4 pusit. 2-bagoong isda at 1-suka pinakurat. Pampasalubong kila lysa at kuya dave. Nagready tayo ng malaking ziplock para hindi umamoy sa sasakyan.

Tapos, nag-dinner sa parang restaurant/ carinderia.

After mag dinner, dire-direcho na sa pampanga. Hindi ako inantok. Tulog din si calis. Kinakausap ko lang si Jun para malibang.

Pagdating sa pampanga, tanggal agad ng carseat. Around 11pm na yun. Balik sila thea at terence sa sasakyan namin, tapos direcho na ng kalaklan.

Tulog pa rin si calis pagdating. Pinasok na nila ang mga gamit sa bahay. Sobrang pagod.

Kinabukasan, pasok na. Mga 1-1/2 weeks tayong nag-rerecover.

Then, nung tuesday ng march19, around 7pm, namatay na si TITO ROD.

Nakita namin aa CCTV na may dumating na 2-lalaki. Tinakluban at nilabas na sya ng bahay nila. Nakahiga sa sofa. Katawagan namin si cams non, group call, tumawag si auntie gina sa kabilang phone.

Sabi, “oh, kita mo naman. Hindi ko na kelangan magpaliwanag pa.”

Sabihin ko ba kila dave?

Ikaw ba bahala.

Tapos, tinawagan din ni te eunice si Auntie Gina.

Group call uli.

Ongoing, tumatawag naman sakin si Mama ni Jun. Sabi ni Jun, sabihin ko na kay Mama. Te eunice gustong sabihing wag. Ang sabi daw ni auntie, highblood mga yun, matatanda na baka ma-highblood pa. Pero, sinabi na rin ni Jun. Bakit nga naman kelangang itago. Andun na tayo sa karapatan ni auntie gina na sya magsabi.

Pero, after ibalita ni auntie gina kay auntie neneng, ni Auntie neneng sa mga taga-states, wala man lang na-receive sila mama ni jun na message galing sa kanya. Baka daw may sira ang phone. Pero. Hindi naniniwala ang mama ni jun. Hindi rin naman ako naniniwala. Kaya sabi ko, dibale po, kayo naman po unang nakaalam jan. Okay na po yun.

Walang burol. Walang lamay. Walang libing.

Walang nakakaalam sa mga kapitbahay. Walang may alam sa mga kapatid ni tito rod. Sabi daw, sasabihin na lang pag naalala, pag tapos na ang lahat. Sabi pa kay Te Eunice, ganon talaga pag mag-isa. Kaya ikaw ganyan ang gagawin. Kelangan mabilis mag-isip.

Alam ko naman na iniidolo ni te eunice si auntie gina. Sabi nya ang strong daw ni auntie. Pero ang tingin ko don, unfair. Unfair sya sa ginawa nya kay tito rod.

Nung nagkasakit, tinago nya na may sakit. Yung naka-bed ridden na pala. Di na makagalaw o makasalita. Nung namatay, gustong itago uli. Hindi man binurol para bigyan man ng pagkakataon na makita pa si tito rod, o paglamayan para alalahanin Sya nung buhay pa. Walang libing man lang, para maihatid ng mga naging parte nb buhay niya.

Di ko rin maintindihan kung bakit ganun ang ginawa nila. Pero baka naman may usapan sila na ganun ang gagawin.

Nung gabi na namatay si tito rod, nagsindi ng kandila si jun. Nagagalit sya sa mga ginawa ng tyahin nya kay tito rod. Unfair. Nung nasa abroad, lahat binigay nya sa mag-ina nya. Nung umuwi, masaya nung una, pero tumagal nadepress na rin. May tinatago pala. May bukol sa ulo.

Kaya umuwi hindi dahil tapos na ang contract sa korea kundi hinihimatay pala sa work nya. Mga 2-beses daw. Kaya napilitanh umuwi. Walang payback, walang milyones na kabayaran sa ilang taon nyang sakripisyo. Nilihim nila yun. Nagpa-CT Scan, sinabing may bukol nga. Nag mumukmok lang si tito rod sa labas nila. Nag-yoyosi. Sabi sakin non, naddepress daw sya. Hindi ko naman alam kung bakit nung time na yun. Hindi nya rin masabi.

Kinabukasan pagkamatay, nagpunta kami ng 25th. Andun na si Carlo. Nagdala kami ng dunkin donut. Magkakasama kaming pamilya at si lysa. Si camille, sebby at auntie lisa andun na rin ng umaga. Naglinis sila. Giniba na ang sofa. Clorox ang bagong bilinh wheel chair. Maya maya dumating na sila auntie. Nagaayos ng death certificAte sa munisipyo.

Bago mag alas-3 umalis sila pabalik ng munisipyo. Dumirecho ng memorial para ibigay ang death certificate. Pagdating don, sinabi sa kanila na tingnan nila si tito rod. Ayaw na daw nila pero napilitan. Nakatalukbong pa rin katulad kahapon. Di na tinanggal. Paa na lang daw ang nakita ni carlo.

Kunabukasan, dadalhin na sa crematorium. Di na kami sumama si calis. Saglit lang din sila doon.

Tapos, lumuwas na kami ng Pampanga para sa Passport. Priority kami nila Calis. Yun nga lang, di ko dinala yung original na Birth Certificate ni Calis. Grabe yung feeling ng disappointment ko sa sarili ko. Kita ko rin yun kay Jun, pero nag isip agad kami ng gagawin. Baka pwedeng picture lang, hindi daw. Balik na lang daw ako at binigyan ako ng 6 months yata na palugit. Sabi, pwede daw kumuha sa PSA, kaso malayo pa daw ang kuhanan. Binalak din ni Jun bumalik ng olongapo, kaso hanggang 4pm lang daw ang DFA. Kaya, either bukas bumalik kami or nextweek.

Ako na lang muna kumuha ng passport. Pagpasok sa DFA para kang sasabak ng gyera. Ang bilis bilis, sunod sunod, ewan ko ba bat ako na-hhurried. Anxiety yata ito pag mag-aasikaso. Anxiety na baka magkamali. At dahil nagkamali ako, nawalan ako ng confidence. Pero, kahit alam kong nadisappoint si Jun, tuloy lang. Kaya, pumila na ko sa picture taking as last na process.

Pagdating don, antagal ko pa rin. Nauna na yung ibang huling pumasok. Nagtanong na ko sa window kung naencode ba ko. Maya maya. Ako na.

Okay naman. Hinintay na ko nila taybe na lumabas. Paglabas, andon pa rin sila papa, alvin, ryan, kath, rk, jia. Maggagala-gala daw muna sila. Pero kami, nagpauna na kong sinabi na aalis din kamo agad. Kasi, namatay nga si tito rod at need namin bumalik dahil may family dinner.

Nagpaiwan na sila thea ay terence. Si taybe sumabay na samin pauwi. Mga 6pm yata yun nakauwi na kami. Pahinga konti, tulog, tapos umalis na kmi.

Sa Gerry’s Grill kami kumain sa may Boardwalk. Andun din sila joy, elora, vicky, kd at tita glo, si carlo at auntie gina, dave, eunice, zack and andy, lysa and wyn, tapos kami ni Jun at Calis. Wala ako sa mood, feeling ko pinipilit ko lang makipag-socialize. Inamin ko rin na hindi ko dinala yung orig birth cert. Sa isip ko, kelangan kong aminin na nagkamali ako. Hindi ako perpekto, para hindi ko na dalhin yung guilt sa katagalan. Tinanong kasi nila yung passporr kaya sinabi ko ang totoo. Sabi kasi nila, kung magiging totoo ka sa sarili mo kahit sa mga mali mo, magiging totoo din ang luck sayo. Kaya, i own up to my mistakes. Make peace with that ang motto ko ngayon.

sabi ko nga, di ko pa rin maatim makipag-usap kila auntie gina. Andun pa rin yung ginawa nya saming pagpapalayas. Hindi ko kayang makipagplastikan. Sorry not sorry. Kaya hindi na lang ako nakikipagusap or tumitingin man lang. Alam kong ramdam nila yun. Pati nga kila eunice mejo naiinis din ako. Pinipilit nilang pakainin si calis ng matatamis kagaya ng ginawa nila kay andy. May boundary, please. Matuto kayong may limitasyon.

Hindi talaga ako gaanon nakipag-chismisan. Pero mainit talaga ang ulo ko. Dahil nga sa birth certificate, eto, nagddwell na naman ako. Tapos, binitbit ko lang si calis. Lumapit sila. Sabi ni joy, breastmilk ka pa? Sabi ko, oo. Sabi ni eunice, hala yvette, nako, 10months na yan dapat i-formula mo na yan. Pero di ko pinansin, sabi ko gusto nya e (si calis), sabi ni joy, ay may gatas ka pa? Madami pa? Na ikinatuwa ko naman. Ramdam ko yung proudness nya pra sa kin na inaaward ko rin sa sarili ko. Nakaya kong magpa-breastmilk hanggang ngayon. Tumahimik na si eunice, siguro naisip nya rin yun sinabi nya. At syempre, sinabi ko kay Jun kasi nainis ako. Ay syempre kampi sakin si Jun.

Natapos naman na yung family dinner. Samin sumabay sila lysa at wyn. As usual may usapan pero di ko na maalala.

In todays episode of tag gutom diaries..

Me: Yung century tuna ba kapag niluto, ano kasama? Sibuyas or bawang?

Baby roomie: Niluluto ba yon ate? Kinakain ko lang yon direcho sa lata eh..

Also nung breakfast, tamang kain ng itlog si baby roomie. Itlog lang daw kasi alam nya lutuin. Tapos eto ako, tamang kain lang din ng cup noodles.

Ok ramdam ko na talaga ang kagutom sa dorm na to. Parehas pa kami di marunong magluto. I think I really need to step up and showcase my hidden talent in cooking… Stay strength baby roomie 😂

story time.

nagmall kami ng coworker ko after shift this morning. late namin narealise it's maundy thursday and closed lahat ng malls, but luckily there were some cafe na bukas.

long story short, pauwi we decided magtaxi from moa kasi di namin alam sakayan pa north. and she would get off at taft pasay since pa-manila siya and then ako direcho na makati.

mausap si kuya driver. after bumaba ng friend ko, sabi ni kuya if girlfriend ko daw. i was surprised kasi i didn't look and act straight or masc. carefree na bahave na queer. i was just being myself na obvious na hindi straight.

so si kuya would ask pa if bakit di kami? and bakit single kami pareho? and if pareho kaming single, why don't we try?

i told kuya awkwardly "nakakastress ka kuya, hindi ko maimagine being with girls." and mas lalo akong nastress sa response nya, "pilitin mo." naubusan ako ng rebuttal.

sa mga ganong situation, i try my best hindi maoffend kasi parang if maoffend ako magiging kasalanan ko pa. pero ewan, minsan nakakaoffend ung ganon. hindi na lang ako nagsspeak up. ipilit ba naman na pilitin ko sa babae?

CHAPTER 1 - JANUARY

12- JANUARY

The usual morning. But today is different. Unang araw ng broccoli + Gerber apple and plums ni calis. Naubos nya parehas. Yung dinner nya bitin yata sya. 😂

But then na-scam ako. J&T worth 983. Nakakainis kasi nahuli ko na e, nagduda pa ko sa judgment ko. It was a worn out jacket. Hindi na mauulit yun. And the scammer ay MAMALASIN ng 983 times!They will not see it coming. Magtataka sila bakit sunod sunod silang minamalas. They will not realized this na ako pala ang nagpadala sa hangin ng kahilingan na ito. I will never know kung ano yung kamalasan na yun, but I know it will happen to them.

I ate tortang talong. TALONG for a long time akonh hindi kumain. It was okay. Pero madami na kasi talaga akong kumain. Calis has been awake for 5 hrs tonight. Kaya eto, tulog agad.😅

Nakapagsampay at natuyo din yung pants at shorts today na nilabhan ko nung isang araw pa. Still a good day. I often look up for the sight of eagles. I have been looking eversince I dreamt of becoming a mother. There was 2 grown eagles flying in the sky pa non. Every morning and hapon whenever I looked. Then I saw na meron ng malilit. And I wonder when will we have our own. Then Calis came. I also saw na andami ng maliliit na eagles learning to fly. They are so tiny and I thank God for giving me a clear vision. I am so proud of them. They are practicing everyday until there are no grown eagle flying with them. It was a proud moment.

Narealized ko na even though they rarely play at the tower, they are still playing on the other part of the mountain on top. Still on top.i bet in a much better place kasi mga puno pa. Sheltered, mahangin. Like us. I want to be on top of our dreams. Kahit hindi on top of everyone like saying na i am the best, I want to be on top with the others. We can share the top with a different view looking at the horizon. Maraming lugar sa taas, hindi lang yung tower. Nakafocus ako sa tower na yun kasi massive, umiilaw, a man-made structure. Pero sa tabi nya ay may flexible, broad, wide, organic nature na nasa taas din. Hindi kelangan makipag agawan on top. The goal is to be on top, not to be on top of them all. Parang aggressive ang dating pag on top of them all e, dapat pinakamagaling— nakakapraning sa mindset. E pwede namang on top na peaceful ka lang. Nakikihalubilo sa mga eagles din on top, sheltering them as well.

Napaka-linaw ng realization.

Pag ganto, nagpapasalamat ako kay Lord at sa Universe. Ganyan kaming mag-usap telepathically.

11- JANUARY

Stayed until 6am today para gawin yung magalang residence. 3 schemes. Yung pangatlo pinilit kong tapusin. Nakatulog hanggang 9am. Hindi na kami naligo ni Calis. Nagprint ng plans, and ready to go na.

Scheme 3 ang napili. Yun din ang naisip kong magugustuhan. Si calis umiiyak na, kaya kinuha ko na pagtapos kong magpresent. Tumigil sya sa pag rereklami at humilig ang ulo nyansa dibdib ko. Parang sinasabing gusto nya lang kay mommy.

Di na kami sasama ng Iba. Una, naawa ako kay Calis kasi hindi sya komportable ss byahe. Pangalawa, antok na sya tapos nasa sasakyan lang at nakaupo or nakakalong. Pangatlo, magpapahinga din ako.

Bandang huli hindi na rin natuloy si Jun. Nagtext na daw kasi yung magari na kakadatinh lang galing ng Japan.

Wow. Sana kami rin balang araw.

Sana masabi rin namin na kakauwi lang namin galing Japan. Kasi, wala naman, parang maganda mag-japan, nakakarelax. Balang araw.

Nag-royal choices kami. Maganda talaga kung may listahan ng bibilhin. Tapos, sa bahay na kami kumain kasi mag7 na e papakainin ko pa si Calis. Last day nya ng steamed potato and squash.

8pm na sya nakakain. Si milo naman nakapatay ng daga. Ang nakakastress dito yung paglilinis.

Balak ko sana 10:30 ko pampatulugin si calis, kaso 9pm pa lang nagrereklamo na sya. Panay tili. Kaya nung 9:45 papadedein ko lang dapat. Nakita ko pumikit na. Kaya lumipat na kami ng kwarto para mag dire direcho na sya ng tulog.

Ang dami kong iniisip na gagawin. Pero a-z ko muna yung grocery list para next time mas madaling hanapin.

10- JANUARY

Hindi pa nagppoops si Calis.

7- JANUARY

Today is dramatic. Woke up at 8:30 i think. The sound of the neighbor’s murmur and voices plus the whimper of Milo. Calis is awake, too, she had a cold coming out on one of her nostrils. As usual, happy and smiling baby. Enough to make my day.

As a drill, i need to change her diaper now. Since 9pm up until now is a long time. She didn’t poop. She does this usually this year. Eversince we started her solid food— steamed carrots and kalabasa— she poop late this afternoon or in the evening. But today, she haven’t even though i breastfed her every after meal of every hour so she can stay awake until 3hrs before napping or sleeping at night. My only worry is that her food is not pureed enough.

As a drill again, I put on the water to boil for my all day lemon-honey warm drink because of my itchy throat. Then, i wash the pre-cut kalabasa and carrots before putting it on the baby food maker to steam. I cut in half the lemon, squeeze and put the juice on the mug plus 2 spoonful of honey. Usually i let the boiling go on until I followed Milo outside, but I asked Jun to take Calis outside now since the water is boiling. I also cooked the fried rice, and preheat the liempo steak. We’re going to have a heavy breakfast today!

We aren

5- JANUARY

3am. Calis woke up. She slept from 9pm to 3am. I woke up, too. And Jun just went in the bedroom around 2am. I said to myself, she’ll probably fall asleep again. She tried. Turning, turning, thumping her heavy legs on the bed like a tantrum. Milk milk milk! But she just cant fall asleep again. Finally aftere taking a few naps, after finding her na nakadapa, smiling and saying dadada (some are whispers), after kong ibalik sya sa pagkakahiga. She finally decided to have her milk while I am hugging her. She fell asleep.

Then it was 9:30am. Milo is begging na mapalabas to poop at pee. Bumangon na ko. Drank the leftover honey-lemon drink mixed with M2. Drank it with 10tablets of spirulina. Then, pinalabas ko na si milo.

Pagpasok ko sa bahay, saktong kakalabas lang ni Jun sa kwarto. I told him I should take a bath first. Nagsaing muna ako. Then naligo na. Pagtapos, sakto lang din na kakagising lang ni Calis. And you know what, she pooped! Andami! This is nice kasi this was her routine months ago. Matutulog sya ng 9pm the. Gigising ng 7am then mayamaya magppoop na. I just put my clothes on and ako na nagpalit ng diaper nya.

After magsteam ng damit si Jun, I cooked my hotdog and Calis food sa steamer. I even boiled the water for my new honey-lemon drink for today. Before Jun left, we are eating our brunch. Calis is eating her steamed kalabasa+carrots for the 2nd day round. It taste okay and it is also good for her.

So now, after 2 -1/2 hr syang gising, We went to the bedroom so she can have her milk and sleep. She is sleeping na.

4- JANUARY

I woke up at 6am today. I thought of finally making the swedish meatball i’ve been wanting to cook. I counted the hours i slept. From 11pm to 6 is 7hrs. Nice. But I fell asleep again. It was 7am. I get up. Drank the tap water and 10tablets of spirulina.

First, I need to cook the rice.

Then I prepare the baby food maker— put the prepared squash and carrots and turn the steamer on.

It is time to do the meatballs now.

In the fridge I get the 2 slices of expired gardenia bread. Cut off the sides and cube the bread. I also grated the white onion- a big one- get teary and runny nose.

But Calis woke up. I heard a loud, mid-deep cry for Mommy. I have to get to her.

As I open the door, Jun is still sleeping. So I keep on telling my baby that mommy is still cooking. But Jun just stayed low. So I changed her diaper, picked her up, let Milo out and followed him.

It was a sunny morning. I noticed a red dot on her cheek and it bothers me. When we went inside, i put the cream that I usually put in her face hoping it will make the reddish dot on her cheek disappear. I attempt to cook, but her crying gets to me. So, I think i have to put the cooking on hold.

Turns out, she is hungry and sleepy. I waited for at least 30minutes and I quietly went outside the bedroom.

I remember that i need nestle cream. So I decided to buy 2 and 2 eggs. But my 150php is enough for 2-creams. So i used the egg on our prosperity bowl. “This is on you, now, egg. Make us healthy, wealthy and happy.”

So I mixed everything. The meat, 2-eggs, 4-slices of bread that are cut in square, the juices and grates white onion, the all spice, ground pepper and salt. I made a total of 50meatballs.

30pcs i cooked, 20pcs I put in the freezer.

When i am almost done with frying the meatballs, I remember my husband’s appointment at 10. It was 9:27am and I hurriedly went inside the room as quietly as i can. But the creaking sound and the line of light entering the room straight to my baby’s eyelid woke her up. I told Jun it was 9:30 and that I forgot to wake him up. But he is such a cool guy it is okay with him.

I am almost done with the swedish meatball and asked him if he should eat here first. When he saw that I cooked and i think he is curious, he told me to put some to go.

Lets continue with the meatballs.

I mixed the ground beef and pork.

1- JANUARY

First, we wear green.

It says growth and peace. We want that for our lives. As we are now officially a family of 3 with Milo.

It fits.

A first celebration in our house.

We cooked enough for our table.

As a mommy, I woke up at 6am. It feels natural opening my eyes to our dim litted room. I naturally get up. Went to drink spirulina and get ready to cook. I started with onion and tomato. I have to cook beef kaldereta first at it takes 3hrs to cook. I cut the labuyo, peeled potato, carrots, bell peppers while the beef is on the stove.

I also julienned the carrots, cucumber, riped mango for the mango kani spring roll.

I thought, this is for my family. I have to do this so we can eat abundatly this year.

Almost done cooking the kaldereta when Calis woke up. A loud cry in the bedroom.

We have done a decent, sumptuous dinner this new year. A first for us and the FIRST for CALIS.

What we cooked are lechon paksiw and spaghetti by Jun. Kaldereta and Kani-Mango Spring roll by me. Spaghetti sauce is done nung nawalan kami ng gasul. Kahit yung spare namin ubos ka rin. It was 5pm. Thankfully, Jun managed to refill the two. One is from phoenix na magsasara na ng 6pm. And the other one is cabalan. Although the one in cabalan ay may leak, it was replaced on Jan.2. We also had dunkin donuts 1-dozen assorted and munchkins! We bought yema cake from sefinas na lucky us kasi may kakabaked lang during that time. This is perfectly timed by the Lord. We are guided and blessed.

I didn’t cook the meatballs bacause of time. And we think na what we prepared are enough to feed us all. It is indeed.

Mama, Papa and Auntie Tessie came. Along with hilabos na hipon, butchi.

Ate Ivy, Thea and Terence came with delish pizza and barbeque.

We also added the 2-kilo grapes on center, the prosperity bowl, and round plate of pears and korean mandarin.

It was great! I am looking forward for this year!
