Musings: When Less Is More

25/9/2012

Despite upgrading to a queen-sized bed, A and I would still go to our single-sized sofabe d in the living area for cuddling. I like using it because I can lay down while watching TV. I can do the same in the bedroom, but the sofabed seems to be more accommodating for couch potatoes.

A would usually watch TV sitting down...even when he's on the sofabed. But when I'm using it, being the lazy oaf that I am, I'd lay down. A would join me, so I'd end up leaning slightly against the wall. It's nice actually, snuggling up like that. It's just funny that when we had a smaller bed, we've been looking for a bigger bed. Now that we have one, we find ourselves squeezing into

Musings: A's Sweet Little Things

5/2/2012

This weekend has been very tiring because of 2 events that I've cooked up: A's post-birthday dinner with his buddies and our condo unit blessing.

The birthday dinner wouldn't have been tiring really. It's just that the schedules of the guests enabled us to start at 10PM and ended up til around 3AM. I don't mind since A only gets to see them around once a year.

Musings: Here Comes The Sun By George Harrison

28/1/2012

Yesterday at my friend's wedding, I realized that we have the same entourage march - Here Comes The Sun. This morning, I saw this entry from Gizmodo about a secret guitar solo for the song that didn't make it in the final version:

Musings: Instructions For Life By The Dalai Lama

4/1/2012

I was browsing a friend's Facebook page when I came across one of her posts that lead me to this link that lists 20 ways to get good karma.

Musings: Feelings Of A New Beginning

2/1/2012

A and I had a pleasant surprise this evening as we were walking our way home. We saw our bridal car at the gas stop. First thing that came to mind was to have our photo taken with the Cadillac. I guess A was shy enough not to let me ask the driver if we could have our photo with the car.

Musings: Blessings And Beginnings 2012

26/12/2011

2011 has been a year of trials and triumphs. We started with a miscarriage and almost ended it with the loss of my dad. By almost, I meant the family opted to go with a happy grief way of handling it. Despite the downs, we definitely have our upside with long sought-after dreams coming true. I guess it's the reason why I couldn't come up with a Christmas wishlist - I could only be thankful of our blessings that come our way.

With 2012 coming up, people have been writing down resolutions. Unfortunately, I'm having a writer's block with that one as well. I would like, however, to continue to be a blessing to others as others have

A Story Of A Boy And His New Toy

11/12/2011

I decided to give A his Christmas present early for being such a very good boy this year (and all the other years that past). I'm also expecting attention negligence coming in my way, but I figured it's still a good toy for him to have when I'm being such a mall rat and he has nothing better to do but sit in a cafe with free wifi.

I Don't Think I Could Ever Thank God Enough For Giving Me A

10/12/2011

People know me as a really strong person. A is known to be a really, really quiet one, and yet he managed to single-handedly make me feel better.

I first met A 7 years back when I was grieving for the loss of my firstborn, Kythe. I wasn't visiting the cemetery much then as it was very painful for me. He volunteered to take me to visit until I'm able to visit on my own. He wouldn't say much. He's just there to keep me company
