self-admitted klutz, wicked at times, suffering from multiple irony, but trying to be the best mom and sexiest human being her two children have ever known
My little girl and I were at the mall the other week looking for a pair of white patent shoes which she would use for her moving up program that same week. Surprisingly, there were not enough white shoes available. I mean, there were lots but not in styles I wanted. But I had to choose one because we were pressed for time as the event was just two days away. I thought buying stuff for my kids would be easier these days especially when competition is at its peak now. With the internet, online shopping is now possible. You don’t even have to leave the house to buy something. Like this online shop for baby slings I came across just recently. It made me wish my little girl were a baby again so I can put her in those cute baby slings and baby carriers. When I gave birth to her almost six years ago, baby slings were not in the market yet. Or perhaps they were available, I just didn’t know about it. Thank God for LastellaBlu.com, moms won’t have a hard time looking for one. These baby slings are also good for gift-giving. I’m sure any mom would love to have one and I’m quite sure babies would love them, too.
I’m thinking of creating a Facebook account for my little girl. She has too many photos and I want to keep it in one place and share those with relatives and friends. Flickr only allows you to upload a certain number of photos a month and you have to pay a fee to upgrade. Facebook is free so I might just create one for her. Anyway, check out anne a lay apostle’s profile and add her while you’re there.
I remember when my friend threw a baby shower for me. It was so last minute so I can understand some of the irregularities that happened during the shower itself. There was a mix up in time. Some of my friends came 2 hours after the shower started. Some were on time and others got the dates mixed up. But all in all, it was fun seeing friends after a long time. Anyway, when it was time to open the gifts, I was so excited. Who wouldn’t be excited receiving lots of gifts and they’re not even for you? When I opened the gifts one by one, many of the items were alike. For instance, I had two baby carriers, 3 of the same toy, two bath tubs different color, and three baby albums of the same design and color. How weird! Who would need two baby carriers unless of course, if I had a twin? But I was pretty sure I had just one baby on my tummy that time. Anyway, it would have been nice if AmazingRegistry.com were present then. But my baby shower happened 19 years ago. Imagine having just one registry but with different stores to choose from. Look at all the stores included in the The best baby registry ever. There is BabiesRus. There’s also Amazon even Pottery Barn and babyearth. Imagine combining all these registries into one convenient registry and the best part is you get all the benefits these stores offer no matter what. It’s really amazing. You get to choose what you need without the fear of having double or even triple gifts. Mommies today would really have a blast using this service.
My son is in his third year in College and this semester is kind of hard for him as some of his subjects require the students to submit endless research essay writing and projects on various sciences. Those are two things my son is having a hard time doing. Studying his science subjects has taken a toll on his health. He’s sleeping late, not eating on time and generally not doing anything at all except studying which is not advisable if you want to be an all around human being. I told him to write his essays and reports and let someone else do the essay editing. He could just write the general topics and a brief description and let a students essay editing service finish the work for him. At least, his reports and essays would be beautifully written and packed with information he himself supplied. Anyway, some of his classmates are already doing it so why can’t he? Well, my ever so dutiful son who likes to do everything himself, can’t accept that another human being would do anything for him. But he’s slowly coming around and checking out Custom-Essay.org. According to him, the service includes unlimited revisions. I’m quite sure there would be few since Custom-Essay.org is known for producing quality writing.
I have never done camping. When I was younger, our school would often hold camping activities on the school grounds. I never attended one. It was just not my thing. I was more musically inclined back then and would often lock myself inside my room for hours listening to my favorite bands. Duran Duran was the band I frequently listened to. I had my walls plastered with posters of them as a group. My favorite was Nick Rhodes. Anyway, going back to camping…I wish I tried it sooner. Now that I’m older, it’s so difficult to find time to get away from the hustle and bustle of city life. It would be nice to go camping, eat outside, be with the people you love the most, just sitting on those outdoor chairs and talking till the wee hours of the night or morning. I know it’s never too late for anyone to do anything and everything except perhaps having a baby at 50. I don’t even know if it’s possible. Yeah, it’s never too late. I might just schedule a camping trip on my birthday or in the summer when the weather is perfect for camping. I’m quite we wouldn’t be rained out.
I am trying not to hyperventillate every time I think what is in store for me this year. This is the year that would make or break me. It’s all happening… Everything and more. And I can’t help but be scared. I’m doing everything for my family now. This is the year that I mature. That I become a parent not only in title but also in deed. I only have two years more before I turn forty. And when I think about it, I panic. I don’t have enough savings. I don’t have a steady job. And I don’t know what I’m doing in so far as finances are concerned. Lord, help me get through all this for my kids.
It’s so nice to just stay home and do nothing. We had plans of going out of town and sitting by the pool all day but we’re all feeling a bit tired and sleepy. My father threw a party last night and we all had chores to do and it was not easy preparing food for 50 guests or more. I got my first headache and itchy throat after two or three months of good health. We must have gone home around 3am and practically slept all morning.
I think I need a new bed. I kept tossing and turning this morning. I was asleep but I also knew that I was half awake. It was just so weird. I need to check some beds for sale this week. I can’t afford not to sleep well. I have so many things to take care of up until my birthday next month. I’m actually very excited about the events coming up next month. My little girl will have her first out-of-town field trip and first public performance. Meanwhile my son, who’s turning 20 this year, now have plans of getting a doctorate degree in Physical Therapy. His mind changes all the time. Anyway, we’ll see what his mind comes up with next month. That’s all for now. Enjoy what’s left of the weekend. I know I’ll sleep through it. =)
People think that as a mother, I know it all. That’s where they’re mistaken. I don’t know everything and oftentimes, I turn to books and other sources and resources for help and understanding especially when the subject matter is about Baby and child. For instance, my little girl suddenly developed a rash two weeks ago. I got alarmed because it was not the regular rash most kids get. So I turned to BabiesBase.com for information and I found it. If you’re a mother, you would surely learn a lot from the many articles on their website. Articles range from tips about going on vacation with the kids to time management for busy working mothers. So the next time you find yourself clueless, visit their website and you might just find what you’re looking for.
I seldom go out and I rarely see friends. My days are always full of things to do, errands to accomplish, and many other things that involve the kids and their school. I guess I’m not the first person to say that 24 hours are not enough for a full-time mom like me. Time is precious for mothers that’s why wasting it on something not even worth a minute of my day is unthinkable. Do you think my life is boring? Well, not really. I just try to manage my time well and choose activities that are enjoyable and fun and at the same time, it should be worth my time and money.
This year, I promise myself a break for every quarter of the year. And I want to spend it watching a rodeo and a live concert after. It should be fun. I should expect that energy level would be high and that is what I want. I need to get tickets to concerts at the Houston Rodeo before they run out. I heard that the artist line up has Mary J. Blige, Keith Urban and even Black Eyed Peas. I’m excited and I hope to get a good seat near the rodeo ring so I could have a clear view of the rodeo and entertainment after.
