A Pinay Mommy's log of happenings in, around, and outside the home
Weeks ago, I posted about starting something new. And today, I can tell you: I’m learning to create and sell digital products. So how did I get here? Like I said in my earlier post, it’s been a while since I had a regular income coming in every month. There are months that I don’t receive a salary, and...
Where should I start? Should I start by saying that it’s been a while since I’ve had a regular income? That sometimes it takes months before I get something from the work I’ve done? Or should I say that lately, I’ve been feeling like I’m in a rut, that I find no purpose in what I am currently doing?...
So there’s this post on Facebook getting viral about a woman asking for advice about her engagement ring. She said she wasn’t happy with the engagement ring her boyfriend of 8 years gave her because it only cost Php 299 (around USD 5.39). She felt that the guy didn’t value her as much since he didn’t get her an...
“Rejection is just a redirection to something better.” This quote came to mind while I was thinking about our family’s car situation. You see, we wanted to upgrade our car. While our storied 1997 Kia Pride was a big help to us for more than 10 years (it was a second-hand car when hubby bought it), especially when the...
Well, what a life so far. My body’s pretty messed up — anxiety has manifested into acute gastroenteritis. Had LBM, still belching until now, still feeling gassy. I don’t think it’s going away soon. I’ve been stressed for quite a while now. Motherhood, wife duties, homeschooling, and work have taken a toll. To be honest, I miss my Makati...
I guess it’s because it’s Hump Day today that I found myself blogging again. Or maybe it’s more because of what I read while scrolling on my Facebook feed today. Found this post about content creation, influencing, and blogging. It spoke to me as a blogger who started in the 2000s and who transcended into — well, I dunno...
It’s now February 2023, as of this writing. And it’s been a while since I’ve written a personal post. Anyways… A few days ago, one of my blogger friends celebrated her site’s 18th year. Wow, imagine that, almost two decades of blogging. Yes, she’s one of us who started blogging in the early 2000s. I feel so old, hahaha!...
It’s happening again: the lazy bug has bitten me once more. Despite a number of happenings the past few weeks, I found myself not having the mojo to post any content. Not even on my IG. But since I have some free time right now, I’m here, trying to put out another blog post. So what happened: – Baked...
There’s a line that goes “imitation is the greatest form of flattery.” To an extent, probably, yes. But if you just simply copy bits and pieces of it, then that’s just simply copying. Almost like plagiarism. Just had this thought because of something I found out a few minutes ago. So I was included in a brand collaboration for...
So, just visiting my blog again. Had a website scare, no thanks to some of the plugins I activated on the site (so yeah, that was MY fault, haha). Good thing that even if I couldn’t access my WordPress dashboard, I could access the plugins and templates through my hosting’s cPanel and deactivate them from there. I learn new...
