icky face. ack!

March 22nd, 2010


Whatta Monday!
I have been up since 4am and has been very productive so far. Although, I may have already exceeded my coffee intake but I need to finish what I targeted to do for this day. However, as I was examining my face this morning when I wash it, I notice, my pigmentation, freckles and now wrinkles have been growing like mutants on my face ack! I know I should not vent on my skin when I barely have a spot of acne scar. But, I cannot disregard the fact that I am in fact, getting old (gulp!). It’s true that with motherhood comes aging because you are left with too many responsibilities and very little time for yourself.

I must switch on this organic face moisturizer because for one thing, I would contribute on saving mother earth, who is also aging very rapidly and last thing because I am convinced that it is the best moisturizer this Spring when our skin adjusts to a new and warmer temperature.

CTS Hurts.

March 22nd, 2010

After a day at the beach and an hour of lucrative massage, I decided to sleep in with my boys. I was too tired to blog and finish what’s left with my blogging tasks and so I missed the cut-off. I couldn’t care less because I couldn’t put myself to even open my laptop last night. It sucks! I guess, I am getting burned out, overwhelmed and on the verge of quitting, not! A friend told me about how good taking hgh releaser will do to my system. I guess I better start researching on that especially now that each time I wake up in the morning, I feel like my CTS is about to explode. Uh-oh, gotta move my butt and keep moving though :) .

How was your weekend?

more to come, more to print

March 19th, 2010

Funny how may printers we have bought and they would always end up in the junkyard because DS keeps on destroying them after tinkering on it for a few hours of usage. This time though, DH decided that we just need to replace the inkjet cartridge and resuscitate whatever is left on our last printer. It can cost us a lot you know but we could not live without one. I print DS workbooks using our printer, now that I am on a rigid job hunting phase, I need to print a lot of resumes too. Not to mention that when we need to send photos to my folks back home, it is cheaper to just print them from our home printer than pay for printing services.

Gosh, we have to be careful and put aside gadgets and stuff away from DS now that his inquisitive mind is always curious and experimenting. I guess kids his age are like that. We just have to keep reminding ourselves that this is a phase and we must not lose our control when we saw him activated on that phase.

time to plot things

March 19th, 2010

This is the time of my 2010 where I should start plotting things, planning schedules and to dos in my personalized desk calendar. I should not waste a single minute nor should I have the time to laze around. But 3 months in to this year and yes, I have already wasted so much time. I have been procrastinating on many items in my to do lists, I have been such a couch potato, and my goals are starting to diminish. Lack of inspiration is probably one of the reasons why I am turning into this kind of individual. That, or maybe I just have too many things in my plate now that I end up getting overwhelmed and would just shy away from these things I needed to accomplish. But then again, do you know how important havingĀ  a desk calendar is when achieving your day to day list of things to accomplish and goals in life? It is very important because you get to see everything at once and you have no choice but to accomplish them asap!

lucky me? not!

March 18th, 2010

I may be very lucky not to avail of any of these acne treatments now, in the past and maybe in the future. I can only count in my 2 hands (even 1) the number of times I had zit in my face and guess what, I did nothing, the next thing I know, they’re gone without having to fret about it nor treat it. However, I started to grow some red rashes (very few) on my lower cheeks. I have researched about it and looks like it’s a very mild case of Rosacea. Oh gosh, I have to start treating this immediately before it worsens. Since I am a Clinique products user, I want to try their Redness Solutions line. I will let you know what happens after a month of usage.

getting there.

March 18th, 2010

I have never been this consistent with my weight loss target. I am just getting more and more conscious with my calories intake. Although, I am this close at taking supplements for weight loss because I just see 5 lbs off the weighing scale when my target weight loss should be at least 15 lbs, I am not that gutsy (yet!) to take them even after recommendations from friends. Maybe when I ran out of time, I might be tempted. You see, all these upcoming reunions, weddings, vacations etc… etc… is pushing myself to work harder. Would you believe me if I tell you that after a hard day’s work yesterday, I still found time to do my 1-hour workout routine from 11pm-12 midnight? Crazy isn’t it? But I gotta fit in my MOH gown by hook or by crook.

the list.

March 18th, 2010


I tell you, I am such a slacker when it comes to completing my To Do List E.V.E.R.Y.S.I.N.G.L.E.D.A.Y. I have totally changed since I got pregnant, I started to be tardy wherein I was always on time at work, and I began a bad habit of procrastination. Yikes! Although, at the end of everyday, I am surprised by how much work and tasks I have completed. There are also accomplishments I cannot believe I could do. Even with an iPhone, a Moleskin notebook (for my daily notes and to dos) and a classic organizer, I am always catching up with time. Can you please see if my To-Do list isn’t doable? here is what I need to accomplish today:

  • Research extensively on these KVM switches as my Aunt-in-Law needs to install a few monitors in her shop.
  • Write at least 30 articles.
  • Cook Dinner.
  • Review for my driving test.
  • Review DS for their drama class.
  • Complete forms for work.
  • Calls, calls, calls.

Oh and yes, it’s almost 4pm and I still need to complete above list. Doable or not? Let me know what you think :P .

Eat, Pray, Love

March 18th, 2010

…and so work keeps coming, they’re flooding and overwhelming me, I am not complaining in fact, I love it! But, when you work at home, managing chores in between very demanding little boy, you cannot help but complain. These are the days when you need to back track, get hold of what matters most and slow down. But then again, you cannot, you must not, you have no choice. You are tired, you miss your old life back but you must go on, keep moving forward right Ms. Robinsons? Oh well, these low moments are probably hormonal and the lack of retail therapy. I might need to re-evaluate myself again and seriously need to watch this film. I wish it would be that easy to be away from everyone else in 1 year and rediscover the true YOU. Nevertheless, remember these 3 words: EAT, PRAY, LOVE.
