Yesterday while at the store, I was thinking of what ice-cream bars to get as we already had two of those Breyer ice-cream cartons at home.

Aside from today being “Good Friday,” this “day” will always remind me that it was on a Good Friday back in 2000 that Nanay had a quadruple by-pass. Eight years has passed and it’ll be 3 years come September that she left us. I remember the pain that she went through after the surgery. . [...]

AC! Yup! AC is under the weather. When we picked AC up from her school dance she attended Friday night, she was complaining about her throat and that she didn’t enjoy the dance partly because she started feeling bleh. Her BFF, Leah was apparently sick already (but I think she told her mom she [...]

“Can You Hear Me?”
Nanay, where are you.
Are you down on earth or in the sky?

Our family misses you
in every single way

Can I have another day?
If I can go to Heaven

to have your love,confidence,and compassion

Yesterday when we went did the lake (Toby included), I noticed that a majority of the glass [...]

CE and I took advantage of Cost Plus World Market’s 25% coupon so we headed to the one in Jack London Square. Unfortunately, I bought more “food” items so they were only 10% off but I did manage to buy a glass container for when I grind the coffee beans (although I really didn’t [...]

Nanay was laid to rest two years ago on this very day. I still remember the feeling I felt going inside the funeral home that morning . . . I knew this would be the very last time I would ever get to see Nanay before they closed the casket. For me, closing [...]

Labor Day . . . Monday! No work! Wahooo! . . . except for domestic chores . . .
Right now I’m doing the 2nd to the last load of laundry and it’s going on 11:20 p.m. I was “behind” schedule (as the hubs put it) . . . whenever [...]

Yesterday marked Nanay’s 2nd “death” anniversary. With her first year, we had a mass for her followed by a small gathering at home with family and friends. Bro had called me yesterday to say that he was thinking about Nanay. We didn’t do anything for Nanay’s 2nd year . . . we [...]
