June was a nerve-wracking month for me. We had a hard time adapting to the new-baby-no yaya set-up. This is also the culprit for my deliberate pause from blogging. My family had to adjust and put things in order first and establish a routine and system that works best for everybody. Mornings are like zombie…… Continue reading ♥ Attitude of Gratitude: June Edition ♥
During my sixty days of maternity leave, I decided to organize and purge my excess stuff as much as I could while nursing my CS wound. However, my CS wound did not allow me to lift heavy things, reach up to the cabinets and dig into my closets so I settled into organizing and purging…… Continue reading ♥ Selling Pre-loved Stuff Online? ♥
I have several items on my bucket and most involve adventures and travel, both of which are an impossibility if you are a mommy of three young children who are still under the age of five with no yaya/househelp. Well, that’s reality — my reality! And, that’s okay. I honestly believe that there is a…… Continue reading ♥ Must-have Jewelries for Women ♥
Recently, I confessed that I am in fact excited to go back to work, that I want to feel relevant again in a field I am competent at and that I want to feel useful again outside our home.

But, I guess I never had that much of an interesting, mind boggling lifestyle so it…… Continue reading ♥ Mommy Confession: I Want to be a Working Mama ♥
Since I became a mother of three young children I begin getting anxious over our family’s finances. Not that we’ve zero out our savings when I delivered our baby V but I think it’s just normal for a parent to worry about his/her children’s future. I think it’s every parents greatest fear – to not…… Continue reading ♥ Mommy Confession: My Greatest Fear as a Mom ♥
If you are active in social media, you must have read/heard already about Gift Gate’s closure in the Philippines. Gift Gate, the gift shop of my generation (GEN-X) is bidding us farewell. I was an avid fan of Hello Kitty (which was pretty much the star of Gift Gate) and Big Panda Bears. And, although I…… Continue reading ♥ Goodbye Gift Gate, Thank You for the Lessons ♥
You are not mistaken, my dear blissful readers. You read it right and it’s May already. My gratitude list for April comes late, 27 days late to be exact. But, I believe that appreciation and being thankful for what we’ve been blessed with can never be late so, allow me. Needless to say, the most…… Continue reading ♥ Attitude of Gratitude: April Edition ♥
This giveaway is closed. Tune in for our next Blissful Giveaway! I’m pretty much confined to the four corners of our bedroom because I do not want to risk aggravating the small hole in my CS incision. It’s almost a month but it has not yet healed even on the surface. Don’t worry though, I’m…… Continue reading ♥ Blissful Giveaways ♥
