Yes, life is getting better. I am now able to find ways of coping by filling in the void of motherhood which I have left in Manila. This ME time is certainly precious, but I never thought it would be quite difficult to fill in. Anyway, to start with, I’ve rented four chick flicks last Sunday, and have watched one ...3 days ago -

I’m tired today, my tummy hurts, my back hurts, and well yes, I’m a bit whiny. I’m at the library right now, as getting on the internet at home for more than 5 minutes is not happening right now.

If I don’t get the chance to get out and start doing some work outside, or having a big house to clean I’m going to need some of those fat burner pills .

New Tuxedo

I often think what it would be like to have an actual wedding. I never had that when I was married. We just went to the judge and let him marry us, no ceremony or family present or anything like that. So much for my childhood fairytale dreams. If I was to get married again, I would want an actual wedding this time ...3 days ago -

So I am back. But without the hubby and our little girl. In short all by my lonesome.

But then again, I miss the dear bubba so much! And yes, I try as much ...4 days ago -

Many onboard have retreated to the safety of their bunks where, ...4 days ago -
Back
A Matter of Perspective —

Yes, for a short while, that is. I had just endured 14 hours of travel by my lonesome (it could have been better had there been more comfy modern furniture to lounge on), and while I have the house to myself, it ain’t all that fun from what I thought it would have been. I am missing my family to bits, especially ...5 days ago -
Taking the Tesla for a spin
Ohaiyo Business Magazine —
Authority: 135
We took a short spin in a Tesla to see what an all-electric sports car was like. The Roadster Sport wasn’t totally silent, but it wasn’t loud — and it was fast (zero to 60 miles per hour in under 4 seconds). We got lots of looks, too. Tesla calls it “performance with a clean conscience” but building the ...6 days ago -

Adventures in Debt —

Apparently they do! My current employer gives out year-end bonuses, which I’m always happy to receive, since extra money is extra money. I’m always surprised by a bonus because I don’t work in sales, so I never figure that I should get one, but I have gotten one from several of my employers over the years, now ...1 week ago -
