Losing something we value is difficult, especially when we poured our heart into it. Almost always, the body gets tense, the stomach tightens, and the mind runs wild, screaming. It's like a door slammed

Breezy morning in DD. Colder than usual, which is okay. It gives that cozy feel. In the last quarter of the year, the ber-chill is normal, at least here in the uplands. Puffer jackets, hoodies, thick PJs,

Magandang buhay💛 A neighbor came by early today for important information we needed. He would normally ask for the husband first, but this time, he didn't and chatted with me by the porch. After he left,

The LilGuy and I ended up staying instead of joining the hubby and my brother for a trip half an hour's drive from the city center (3.5 hours from here) for the final monumentation (line marking) of a

It was drizzling yesterday afternoon, and an incredible display was waiting in the distance (east side) when I stepped out of our lil abode to check if I had left anything on the clothesline. I was awed,

Magandang buhay💛 It's a bright weekend, and gentle silence fills the air. We usually hear murmurs of the neighbors' kids walking by each morning, but not today. There is no school after all. Surprisingly,

"Could you make dinner tonight? I have already sliced the pork; veggies are washed and drained too," I proposed to the hubby yesterday evening. I had missed his cooking during our stay in BC.

My plan for a lazy Wednesday turned out differently, as it was a bit productive. It was mostly hot, but I spent most of it in the shade. We harvested the leafy lettuce (romaine) in the morning even though

Waking up to a fantastic hump day in DD. I didn't realize we had been in BC for almost a week (6 days and nights). Yongi and I were enjoying our stay, but then the hubby came and picked us up yesterday

Another generative AI musician project had me humming yesterday afternoon, thanks to Dad, who played the song that got me intrigued and made me check it out. Sadie Barlow, an AI-assisted country-pop music

Magandang buhay💚 It's the new week, yay! Excited much to how the day unfolds (drafting this early in the morning, thanks to the LilGuy who woke me up from a bad dream at 4 am, licking my face—his way

My plan to hit the sack early last night got derailed when I noticed my old Ace hard-shell suitcase, which I'd left unopened for years because I had forgotten the combination key (code). I suddenly felt

Our Yongi had fun in the yard yesterday afternoon. It got warmer, so I decided to start clearing the intruders (weeds/grass) in our little garden. He was watching from the door at first, then I let him

Oh la la, it's Fri-Yay! We welcomed the new month here in BC. Yesterday was hectic, but it went well. It rained at 5 in the evening, keeping the air cool after a really hot day. Thunder roared too, like

Beautiful life💚 The hydroponics set we purchased months ago came with some freebies, tiny packets of veggie seeds (e.g., Green Ice, Kangkong, and Romaine). I also bought a few more. So earlier this week

So it's midweek already. The hump day. The end of the month, too! One last quarter left in the year, whew! September seems to have flown by quickly. We are heading out today, taking the hour-and-a-half-long

Oh la la, it's Tuesday and here on-chain, it's TTT time, so let's get it going! These tunes have been sitting in my draft for almost a year, so I guess it's time to let them out. I can't recall why I have

Welcoming the new week in DD with lovely weather—blue skies and generous sunshine. No patches of white clouds up there, so it appears that we will have a really bright Monday. Anyhow, a first cousin is

Magandang buhay💚 The chikka time with Dad stretched until dinner. It's a bit funny that as if we had been away for so long when we were here on the 14th. Our chatty old man never runs out of stories to

Waking up to a bright morning in BC after coming home late at night from attending Kuya C's wake. We would probably spend the rest of the weekend here before heading back to DD, or things could change,
