Dreams to reality

What comes in my mind when it comes to steel buildings are the high rise sky scraper in Makati. Condominiums are also a trend nowadays. My sister A purchased a condo place somewhere in Makati few years ago and didn't know until now. My other two sisters M and Zj were glad she did because their work place is somewhere in Makati and South area and they plan to live there. That will happen this year. Another accomplishment. Feels good when everything falls into place right. Next project--Condo in Tagaytay hahaha. Thank You Lord for all the blessings. We are grateful everyday. Time to make our dreams into a reality!

Pamper-ness

Hubby's been complaining about his back pains and getting worse. We've gone back and fort to the clinic to see the doctor. I don't want any more bad news but the doctor will see us again tomorrow. I feel so stressed about it. From where we are right now, stress is the least I need. After all this, I'm planning to get a whole body massage, spa treatment complete with those spa covers, plus manicure/pedicure and finish with hair treatment--rebond, highlights and hair cut. Yes! That's what I want. I'll do it in 2 weeks. Let's see...

Kiddo even helped gave out loot bags to the orphans. I'm looking forward for more charity work with the kiddo in the future =)

Life's a beach

Our trip to the beach yesterday really took the stress away. We had a nice time with the family and kids. Did nothing but relax, eat, sleep, and spend time in the sand and salty water. Montemar is the place to be. Life's a beach!

Diet

Last time I jogged was a week ago and I feel bad about it because I plan to join a local race in May and I really need to practice. But the heat here will probably make me more sicker because I am already sick. I found another diet pill on line and I still need to find out more about the side effects. But nothing beats the old fashion way to getting slimmer--exercise and diet all the way.

Chat via messenger

We never fail to talk to MIL in the US because she always misses the kiddo. She sometimes calls on the phone and sometime we use voice messenger when Internet is available. I suggestion her to use vonage for voip service but she's not that technical and might need a lot of vonage help. So for the meantime, we'll probably use the old way to voice chat using the messenger until she's technically ready.
