No sunshine yet, but at least the gustiness weakened, and so is the rain. Occasional drizzles only. Hopefully, the weather continues to improve. We had to go out during the day to pick up the parcels at

I woke up to an emergency alert half an hour before midnight on the 8th. Red Rainfall Warning Signal it said. We can hear the rain and wind lashing through the roof. We tried to go back to sleep but it

"Oops! Wait..." I caught myself just before tapping the confirm button on one of the e-commerce platforms this morning. There's the 8.8 SALE (8th of August), and discounts are everywhere. Whilst

Classes were suspended, and the scheduled hearing at the regional trial court was postponed, so it was another lazy day for us in DD. The hubby went out for a quick ocular inspection in the morning and

Hola💚 The supposed drive today didn't push through. The technician hasn't given us the list of stuff to be purchased, so we will have to wait. The postponement was good, though. We weren't really in the

Magandang buhay💛 A call to Dad made us leave our lil cocoon here in DD for a short while yesterday and drove to BC for some urgent matters. The weather cooperated, thankfully, with the sky clearing for

Oh la la! It's been a really wet Monday. And the forecast said it's going to be like this for days due to the combined impact of a tropical depression (Luis) and Habagat (southwest monsoon) throughout

We drove to BC after the morning mass today, and stayed there until evening. We were to have dinner at Dad's, but the hubby remembered we had to be at the gas station before it closed, or we wouldn't be

Welcoming the new month with a brisk walk along the pathway leading to the hills, where I discovered some wild raspberries (locally called "Sapinit"). These are often found here in the uplands,

Magandang buhay, and hola from DD😍 Well, we came back yesterday after enjoying a simple birthday lunch with Dad, courtesy of the husband who prepared the food and even had a wee cake ready. With my brother

Grateful. Blessed. Loved, but also missing Mom terribly. 30th of July, one special day for her and me. What are the odds, huh? 1 in 365 or 0.27% accordingly. Not a rare probability, but I'm still fascinated

Woke up to find my boy soundly asleep beside me, face down between the blanket and my baggy sweatshirt. It's not the first time, though. He loves being so close to me in bed. When I roll over to the other

Hola Tuesday! I thought Monday would stay bright, but as soon as I started weeding, the rain came and stayed throughout the day and night. So I took a nap instead, a long one that is. If my sister didn't

Magandang buhay💛 The new week is looking lovely. Bluer sky and some sunshine at last, yay! Dad had issues with his phone and asked me to check. "Ads kept showing up since yesterday, even when I'm

Woke up to a super cold and wet morning in BC. It's been raining throughout the night, which was a perfect lullaby to the soul. The hubby drove out early for DD, and our boy wasn't pleased to be bothered

"Oh my, you played with tissue again?" I exclaimed on seeing the shredded whites on the sofa, and a few more on the floor. The LilGuy groaned and looked at me as if saying, "That wasn't

Muscles aching a bit, runny nose, bitter taste in the mouth, heavy, sore throat, and a bit of coughing. It started with a headache the other day. A mild bug has caught up with me, it seems. Thankfully,

We were in the neighboring town yesterday for errands, an oil change service, and maintenance. The car's registration renewal is approaching, and we had to make sure everything is in order (above standard)

Magandang buhay💛 'Tis a sunny Monday in DD, yay! Three laid-back days went by, and today should be different. My muscles are already aching to get active after being idle for quite a while. A physical
